TAPPS D1 State Championship: Kelly vs Fort Worth Nolan


Recommended Posts

COPY AND PASTED FROM A DIFFERENT WEBSITE

These teams have met 5 times since 1999.

In 1999 Nolan upset the defending state champ Bulldogs 10-7 denying them a chance at a repeat.

In 2000 Nolan came in with a ton of confidence after beating eventual state champ TCA and pushing a Bishop Lynch squad with Matt Nordgren and Ryan Moats to the limit. Unfortunately too many turnovers did in the Vikings that day, as the Bulldogs advanced.

2003, Kelly must have played a murderers row schedule to have as much ability as they did but have so few wins. They jumped out to a big lead early. Nolan tried to mount a rally, but it was too little too late.

The year is 2007. Kelly has what many people say is one of the best teams in the history of private school football. Not only did they go through the regular season undefeated but they beat one of the best teams in Louisiana as well public or private. Nolan used big plays and ball control offense to stun Kelly that day on their home field and go on to the state championship.

In 2008 Kelly has their chance for revenge a year later taking on a Nolan squad that had stumbled to 4th in district, and barely made the playoffs thanks to the expansion of the bracket to 12 teams that year. Again Nolan upset Kelly and would go on a roll beating Austin St. Mike's, stunning a Johnny Catalano led TCA squad, and avenging an earlier loss to Bishop Lynch in the championship.

Played on the teams that beat kelly in 07 and 08,
Kelly had the size but we had the heart to finish the game i believe.
Saturday will be a great game,
I feel like it's kelly's chance to get back at nolan for taking their spot in the play offs back to back,
For nolan its a chance to overcome last year's disappointing loss against Prestonwood and to defend its record against kelly.

Its gonna come down to who wants it more.
We have the two best teams in tapps, regardless of what people might think, they are. They wouldn't be in the state game if they weren't.
At this point in the season errors and etc. should be a thing of the past and everyone should be on top of their game.
Whoever plays the hardest and the smartest is going to win that game.

Good luck to my vikings! and also to the bulldogs!
Hope no one gets hurt,
and PLEASE. lets have a clean game on both sides!

GO VIKINGS

    • 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.
