Best Silsbee vs Hardin Jefferson Game

[BADSANTA]

What's your favorite game between these two schools.

[AggiesAreWe]

Question, best game or favorite game? These could be two different games.

[BADSANTA]

Either would be good to post. Would love to hear from fans on both sides.

[AggiesAreWe]

I honestly believe the best game between these two recently was the '07 Regional final game, won by HJ in overtime. Second would be last year's regional final game, won by Silsbee.

I'll have to think some more on what my favorite game would be.

My favorite was the tie breaker game at Lamar I believe in 2009 when Benard lit Silsbee up for 37 points!!!!!!

The tiebreaker game in '09 was at PNG, won by Silsbee. The '08 tiebreaker was at Lamar, won by HJ.

OK so in 2008 then!!!!!!! ;D ;D ;D

My favorite wasn't a win for the Tigers, it was more for the atmosphere.  Last years Tiger loss at HJ when the chants were going back and forth between the fans.  I still can remember the look on a player or twos face during that.

07 regionals, when Silsbee had us down 17, and we weren't worried.  A tad concerned, maybe...  That was my favorite game, of course, and certainly one of the best.  Every HJ-Silsbee game is great.

[/quote]What was it, 18-1?  And then HJ took a lead early in the 4th and was THIS CLOSE to closing the door when Jacoby Turner slipped while going for an open layup.  That would have given us a 10 point lead and I think it would have been the last nail on the coffin.  Sadly, we left the door open and Silsbee came back and beat us.

Great game, though.  Grady Walters (?) lit us up that day.

Nick Walters, i think?  or the other guy was Grady or Brady Briars or something like that.

Mine was in 98 when I played for HJ and we were in the same 4A district and Silbee beat us by 60 at Silsbee!!!!! LOL!!!  God they were good!!!

[/quote]Yeah, it was Nick.  Grady, I believe, is Nick's dad.  I used to do business with him when he had the grocery store in Silsbee.

But Nick hit WAYYYY too many 3's that day against us.

Guys, in '07, HJ won that regional final against Silsbee in OT on their way to the state title. It was the '08 regional final that Silsbee won with Nick hitting the three's.

[/quote]Hey, I'm just glad my memory reaches all the way back to last week, let alone 2008.  If I'm off by a year, I figure I'm still ahead of the game.

[ST413]

I thought so. Missed the 07 one though. Have heard about it ever since!

[stevenash]

Can't recall any games between these two teams that havent been great games

[BADSANTA]

Yea I remember when HJ moved to 4A for a few years. Didn't they still make the playoffs?

[BADSANTA]

07 Game was great! HJ should have won state in 09 as well.
