Although they were nationally ranked that year, it wasn't No. 1.  They ended up ranked No. 15 by USA Today and No. 9 by ESPN's Scholastic Sports America.  One of the Mustang's victims was another nationally ranked team (at the time they played anyway) in Aldine MacArthur who if I remember correctly was ranked No. 6 in the nation and No.1 in Texas in 5A.

Thomas Jefferson (Dodge and Duhon) was one of the best. Was that 1981?

I'd vote TJ's Dodge/Duhon as the best, followed by 87 WOS then BC's 66. Worster was that good in high school.

Do keep in mind there was almost no structure regulating who played for HS teams pre-WWII. There are many accounts of 25+ year old guys who would work in the oil fields all day, then suit up for their "school" on Friday nights. Notice the teams: [i]Sour Lake,Pt.Nech,Crosby,Liberty,BH,Dayton,Cleveland,Cedar Bayou(Baytown)Humble,Frech,Angleton. [/i]  Pretty much all oilfield towns back then. Some players had the wife and their 3 kids there to cheer for them....

The '77 PN-G team should also be up there because it was undefeated going into the championship, which it lost 13-10 (not sure if that was the year with the #3 national ranking; that may have been the '75 team). It might also be a good idea to look at the PN-G teams from the 50s; three state championship appearances in a row doesn't happen often. The '99 team deserves some credit as well.

Baytown Sterling's1971 State  Finalist team would rank up there for me. Maybe not the most talented, but they found a way to win.
Too much 6th St and some MOJO was just too much to overcome in the finals.

Actually won a Regional Championship as Class B schools did not play state championship in those days.  But I get what you are saying they won their ultimate game that year.

Some stats for the 1987 West Orange-Stark Team:

4A State Champions
15-0 record
Ranked No. 15 in Nation by USA Today
Ranked No. 9 in Nation by Scholastic Sports America (ESPN)
Scoring average: 28.1 points/game
Points allowed: 5.2 points/game
Most points given up in a game: 14 (LC-M)
Games in which only one score was allowed: 13
Games in which team scored 30 or more points: 8
Shutouts: 5
Notable wins:  Aldine MacArthur (Ranked. No. 1 in 5A, No, 6 in Nation at time of game)
                    Jasper (Ranked No. 3 in 4A at time of game)
                    West Columbia (Ranked No. 2 in 4A at time of game)

played against the 98 Newton team, they were unstopable
[/quote] ypp, I remember how good they were. They gave us a run for our money. We were their only loss for the season I believe. And some people say that we were one of the best teams WOS had since 87. We had awesome teams in 95 97 and 98. But we kept running into the LaMarque Cougars. They were a dynasty in the 90s. Then in 98, we played horrible against a great sislbee team and lost first round. I believe we were number 2 in state behind LaMarque or Stephenville.

It's just amazing how geography can distort perception.  This gentleman is obviously from WO-S territory and remembers per his statement: ". . . we played horrible against a great Silsbee team and lost in the first round."  I was one of the broadcasters at that game for the Silsbee radio station.  Silsbee, indeed, played a great game - you have to to beat WO-S.  But I don't remember that WO-S played that horribly.  But then, I'm old and don't remember much anyway. 8)

For me, it`s  got to be Orangefield,  1956, 6 man football team.  Bill Godwin, Ed Peveto Jerry Peveto and others.

Is your 1956 correct?  I ask because I was in football camp in the fall
of 1955 at Lamar Tech with an Ed Peveto from Orangefield.  I believe he went on to become quite a high school football coach.  Surely, there
were not two Ed Peveto's from Orangefield in those two years. ???

Oh yeah, we played probably one of our worst games in years. I'm not taking away Silsbee puting it to us, but If I could get the stats, we had more turnovers in that game, than the whole season combined. I want to say we had three touchdowns called back, could hold on to the football, and the weather was horrible. Took our speed away from us. Couldn't even kickoff without falling down in the mud. Trust me, I remember well.
