Ozen over BH is not an upset. You cant look at the records and scores and go off of that. Ozen has some great athletes on that team.
[/quote]Upset in my opinion as well.

Yeah, I would call it an upset as well, for the same reasons mentioned above.
Also, the game was played at the Hill's home field.
They are the District champions, 9-1, at home, against the 4th place team that needed help to get into the playoffs.

Although I saw it as an upset, I thought that Ozen had about a 50-50 chance of winning.
Maybe a little less than 50% since it was at the Hill.

If it weren't for the fact that EVERYONE (including BH fans) knows that BH can't go deep in 4-A, it would have been a huge upset...

And aardvarks are cute.  Thanks to the picture, my 5-year-old son wants one for Christmas.

BH was severely overrated. This was not that big of an upset. Ozen plays in a tougher district (obviously). BH fans heads were too big and they got everyone else believing the hype. There was never anything there. I knew when things got real Dayton would strive forward and BH would fall, not necessarily in the first round, but eventually. If BH would have beaten Crosby then I would say it was a huge upset, but after showing that they weren't all that, it was obvious they would fall soon, sooner than Dayton at least. The biggest upset was Coldspring only beating BC 7-0. [b]I'm hearing Sherman Gilbert played with the flu, and Monroe was injured early on. Something had to have happened [/b] because I saw both teams play this year early on, and I thought CS was going to blow BC out.

Matt Menard got hurt early on for BC, too. CS still had their best player on the field and BC did not. Had Menard not gotton hurt BC probably gets at least one score. Don't use the injury excuse for not blowing out a team you all said you would have beaten into submission at halftime.

A win is a win. Say whatever you want about why BC lost, but it doesn't matter. Now since CS did win the game, it is more rational to make excuses as to why they did not win by more. That was a slip up by CS. Fortunately the still won. Now they can use that game to better themselves now that they have come close to seeing a loss. This was their first game of the season. Huffman was fairly close, but lets face it, every player on that field knew who was going to win that game. Congrats to Huffman for playing hard, but anyways, this was their first test.

I ended up with a 98% winning percentage in predictions for 4a and 3a regular season this year. My playoff predictions include 5a in which I usually dont do too bad. I had BH to win and thought they would at least make it to the Brenham game.I also picked Lufkin,thought that was a pretty good upset as well.Had Coldspring lost I think I'dve gave up. ::)

    • I like option number two, PNG and Nederland both win. Nederland i’ll be the district champion, number 1 seed or whatever you want to call it. Yes I know that if two or three teams tie with the same record, they will be called co-champions and everyone gets a trophy. One team however will go in as the first place team in district and will play the fourth place team in the bi-district round. If PNG and Nederland both win, Nederland will be #1.

    • Virginia has same day voter registration. A person can literally walk in to the voting location, register and then vote. So the premise that Virginia might be stopping people with a legitimate right to vote is nonsense. From what I gather in the news report, assuming that the ones I have read are correct, the people that were removed, filled out a drivers license registration and marked that they were not an American citizen. Could the person have made a mistake bychecking the box incorrectly? Although unlikely it is certainly possible. That same person who was removed can go into the same voting location where he would have voted and again, complete a voter registration and then vote.  That went into the Supreme Court’s decision.  If such a person votes by registering on election day, he fills out a provisional ballot. Provisional ballots are not originally counted and or not counted unless needed. For example….  Statewide there are 500 provisional ballots cast. A person wins the election by 4,000 votes. That would be no need to count the provisional ballots as it will not matter. Then let’s say there are 5,000 provisional ballots cast in the election. One candidate then wins the election by only 1,500 votes. In that case, the election could definitely swing on those provisional ballots. The state will then investigate each person to make sure they live at the correct address listed and that they are American citizens. If these things are correct, the vote will then be counted. Safe Harbor is not untillll…… I think December 17th this year so there will be six weeks to verify the provisional ballots if needed. The purging of the names of people who checked a state form saying that they were not an American citizen, will not stop that same person from voting.
