BIGWORM Posted December 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 [quote name="Scooter!" post="927024" timestamp="1291592735"]this is gonna be fun ;D[/quote] NOW On too Football :::: I think the biggest differance in West Texas and East Texas is not so much the speed but the number of talented atheletes.They reload in East Texas and it takes a special class at West Texas schools.At the state game last year the speed of Carthage did shock Graham the first half,but as the Game went on dicapline and better fundamental play showed for Graham.Carthage and Graham lost about the same amount and look where they are and where Graham is.Next year it whouldnt surprise me for B-Wood not to make the playoffs and Carthage to be right back in it till the end.

whodat22 Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 Having coached in both EAST and WEST Texas, I would say that on a week to week basis, West Texas teams are better. East Texas teams may have the best individual team most years, but they also don't have to buck up and play in a war every week. Just my opinion.
