I dont know anything about Bremond, except what I see on the net.  I looked at their season and didn't see any solid wins.  They blew out some of the lesser talented teams, but lost or barely won against good teams (16-15 Normangee & 7-42 Mart).  I know that same comment can be used on the Oilers, so I'm looking for opinions and comments about the upcoming game.  Go Oilers!!!

Bulldogs hope for a long playoff run ends in Temple

By James Ratliff

TEMPLE – The Dawson Bulldogs’ hopes for an extended run through the playoffs were blown away with the relentless wind whipping through Wildcat Stadium, as the Bremond Tigers won the Class A Division II Region III bi-district trophy, 55-8, Saturday afternoon.

The Tigers (10-1) followed the lead of quarterback LiDarral Bailey, who had a stellar day, gaining a whopping 307 rushing yards on 19 carries, with five touchdowns on the ground. Bailey also completed six passes for 69 yards in the contest.

For the Bulldogs (6-5) the going was tough from the beginning, as they were held without a first down until junior Dustin Sanders made a spectacular play, diving to haul in a 30-yard Trey Tennison pass with 1:53 showing on the clock in the first half. On the very next play, sophomore Alex Shaw picked up Dawson’s second first down with a 10-yard run. The Bulldogs ran out of downs, however, and with just two seconds remaining before halftime, turned the ball over at the Bremond 17 after a fourth-down Tennison pass fell incomplete.

Bremond struck early and often in the contest, scoring on eight of 12 drives. Bailey scored five of those eight touchdowns, with his first coming from 1-yard out with 8:30 showing in the first quarter.

With 8:17 left to play in the third quarter, Dawson shifted the momentum its way with another huge pass from Tennison. This time the sophomore quarterback found classmate Nick Renfro on first down for a 46-yard gain that left the Bulldogs only 13 yards from the end-zone. After a missed field goal attempt, the Tigers took over on their 12-yard line.

The ensuing drive summed up the day for Dawson, as Bremond’s Bailey broke free for a 60-yard touchdown run, leaving the Tigers up 35-0 with just over 17 minutes left to play.

Dawson scored its only touchdown of the game less than a minute later, as Shaw outran the Tiger defense for a 48-yard score. Sophomore kicker Steven Travis dove into the corner of the end zone on the conversion attempt, making the score, 35-8.

Defensively for the Bulldogs, junior Trevor Carr and senior Cameron Johnson were solid. Early in the fourth quarter, Carr recovered a Justin Kinney fumble at mid-field, stopping the Tigers early in a drive that began on their 33-yard line.

With just over four minutes left in the game, Carr broke through the Bremond line, delivering a bone-jarring shot to Kinney for a loss of four yards.

Bremond used 11 different rushers, who racked up 464 rushing yards in the game, while the Bulldogs managed 163. Tennison had one of his more productive performances of the year for Dawson, passing for 83 yards.

The Bulldogs were forced to play without senior running back Kameron Warren, who suffered a sprained ankle in the last game of the regular season in Axtell. The loss of Warren opened the door for junior Justin Oliver, who was Dawson’s second leading rusher in the game, gaining 34 yards on nine carries. Leading all Bulldog rushers was Shaw, who picked up 127 yards on 19 carries.

“You’re always disappointed when that final game is over, no matter how it turns out,†Hawkins said. “I’m just proud of the kids, and very appreciative of the community and faculty for all its support this season.â€

To win yall are going to have to contain #11.  That aint real easy to do and we had an returning All-State LB.  They are awfully tricky on special teams as well.  They have true beast on the D-Line.  I wish you guys well.  But, remember you are playing a team that played in the championship game last year.  It is going to be a tough row to hoe.
