If your team doesn't make the playoffs......

[Bobcatfan4life]

If the team that you follow doesn't make the playoffs, what team or teams do you watch in their playoff run? If my Cats don't make it in I always follow BC. What about you guys??

[Bread]

i follow Southlake Carroll, and just about any SETX team, gotta root for the entire area....

[Guest GoStangs]

I've been to several Nederland playoff games, but also enjoyed watching PNG when WOS wasn't in the playoffs.

[Guest bulldogbark]

first the teams in our district that make it, Lufkin, I am sure they will make it then any other setx tm

[Jacksonville Indians]

A quick hello from up the country ways. Saw where this site is associated with smoaky now. We've had some great teams in the past but when the Indians miss out or get beat i follow Lufkin and both Tyler schools.

[Guest Kelly Football]

I'm one of those that when Kelly gets beat i'm down and depressed and just wait until next year.

[tvc184]

It is all according to what day the games are on and how deer season is going. I will watch PN-G if they are in the playoffs and Nederland is not. I might watch any other area team if the game is fairly close to home.

[Guest Kelly Football]

I would follow West Brook if we were knocked out.

[Guest Living 4 Friday Nights]

Well if Ozen gets knocked out i would have to root for Central i guess.

[Guest ECBucFan]

West Hardin Oilers! Might just win state this year!

[Critter]

I will also follow our area teams if BC gets nocked out..Good Luck Cardinals.

The Oilers have a real good team but they are far from a state champion team. You need to take a close look at 1A. There are some real good teams at that level. There are some very good teams that dropped down this year. Time will tell who knows what they are talking about. Good luck Oilers.

Dont tell anybody though

I can't imagine a 1A team with more depth than W-H. I bet they meet Alto down the road, and that winner has great shot at the title.

Good luck to the Oilers, hope they make it.

West Hardin Preview

West Hardin looks to be in great shape to win the district 24-1A championship in their first year in 1A. Coach Dave Westfall welcomes back 24 lettermen including 14 starters in 2006 after his team went 4-5 last year and 1-4 in a tough district 24-2A.

Offensively West Hardin will be very good with 7 starters back. Quarterback Brandon Letsinger returns after he completed 57 passes on 129 attempts for 814 yards and 9 touchdowns. The Oilers will also have a very potent running game with the return of tailback Zach Simmons. Last year Simmons rushed for 548 yards on 85 attempts and had 6 touchdowns. Both of these guys will be a big part of the Oiler’s success in their senior seasons. Also look for big things out of linebacker/fullback Patrick Kelley and wide receiver Tyler Copeland.

The Oilers also welcome back 7 starters on defense in 2006. Some of the defensive standouts in 2006 will be linebacker Patrick Kelley, nose guard Wyley Ener, linebacker Dominique Bennett, and defensive backs Mark Bell and Jared Tomlinson. The defense for West Hardin will be tough and they will make it very difficult for opposing offenses to move the ball. If the defense can hold teams in check and keep the Oiler offense on the field it will be very tough for teams to beat West Hardin.

West Hardin will face some tough competition in non-district play. They will open the 2006 season on the road against a very tough Groveton Indians team on September 1. In week 1 they host the Warren Warriors. The following week the Oilers welcome the Hardin Hornets to Saratoga. The last of a three game home stretch will pit the Oilers up against the Kountze Lions. They will also have a road matchup against Huntington on September 29. The Oilers open district 24-1A play at home against the Evadale Rebels on October 13. Fans have November 3 marked on their schedule as the 24-1A championship should be decided when West Hardin welcomes the Hull-Daisetta Bobcats. Here is the complete 2006 schedule for the West Hardin Oilers….

[KFDM COOP]

Chilton,Bremond????????????????? If you know 1A football do these teams ring a bell? 4.4 speed all over the field! not one guy about 8.

Not bad.

How does West hardin(a 1A school) have so much depth? Are we talking about depth of players?

[DP#1FAN]

They will likely win there district. Besides H.D. a very weak district. Waiting up in east Texas are some 1-A schools that could beat some 2A and 3A schools. I hope W.H. has a great year but to say they will win a state championship is far fetched. West Hardin should be one of the biggest schools in 1A. I think basketball will be on there minds come mid Nov. There team should also be very good. JMO

Well, I have heard about them from the 2A ranks over the past few, and now they are 1A :shock: :shock:

Im not trying to dump on my team, but we for sure were going to win state our first year of 3A. Look what happened. Just cause these schools have less enrollment, doesnt mean they have any less talent.

You can only play 11 at one time :wink:

[KFDM COOP]

WH just has alot of returners back, 14 i believe.

[WHFAN]

WH might not win state but we have to back them like they are.This team is most likely the best team WH has had in many years . State ? I'll be there from start to finish !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[KFDM COOP]

I think they have a shot to go along way!
