Garrison at San Augustine Game Thread/Garrison wins 26-23

San Augustine had 515ish yards of offense, but had 4 awful turnovers ( 2 ints inside 20 going in, fumble on the 5 going in and a pick 6 whe the qb was getting tackled and just hunted it straight into the air), 2 punts blocked in the 2nd half with 1 being ran back for a touchdown.  SA completely dominated for 95% of the snaps.  Anyone who tells ya different is lying.  Literally 7-8 plays is the difference in SA winning 56-14 and losing 26-23.  SA is a very good football team that keeps getting in their own way right now.

Exactly!!

I know it sounds crazy but it's the honest to goodness truth.  Garrison scored 2 offensive touchdowns.  San Augustine shut them down otherwise.  So there is your 14 for Garrison.  A pick 6 where the qb was wrapped up and going down and he decides to throw it straight up in the air and garrison takes it to the house.  A blocked punt returned for a TD.  A fumble without being hit on the handoff on the 5 going in ( that makes it 28-14 now). A trip inside the 5 and get stopped on 4th down by a foot on a qb keeper when there was a wr WIDE open he should have tossed it to (35-14). Two ints inside the 20 where the WRs were open but overthrown across the middle and picked off (that's 49-14).  And a TD called back right before half on an offensive pass interference call 56-14). 

I'm honestly not exaggerating with those statements.  Garrison capitalized when opportunities were presented to them, so congrats to them.  But SA dominated for 95% of the snaps.  That's not trying to be ignorant or whatever but it's the truth.  They shut garrison down and did what they wanted to on offense. The garrison offense scored on their 1st drive of the 2nd half and then never found the end zone again.  SA had just 300 yards rushing and a little over 210 yards passing.  SA has got to learn to finish drives and finish games and they will be just fine.

    • This is good info. It doesn’t really break out for student athletes though. LP & (I think) DP are open enrollment because of the way the towns intertwine. That’s the way it’s been for many years anyway. I assume it still is that way. The kids have a choice after Jr. High to go to either High School because LPISD has elementary schools in DP. As I recall, DP didn’t want to build out more (Robin Hood issues), and so DPISD & LPISD came to an arrangement because LPISD is one of the highest givers to Robin Hood in the state, and it helped both keep more funds in district. Of course, LPISD is open to all. Not just DP, and LPISD is rated well. So, I assume they have kids from elsewhere also. Not positive though. They used to have a lot because—for decades—DeWalt was the only dedicated public school in the GHA that specifically catered to special needs kids. Families from all over enrolled. But, they didn’t participate in extracurricular activities like sports. So, LP’s total enrollment made them 6A. But, they were really a 5A school all along for sports program sake. This is all as best as I can recall from when I was more involved in school issues. I’m sure a lot has changed since then. My kids have been out for 20 years.
    • Our playoff rivalry. They hold a 6-5 edge in the series. I think Newton continues the win streak in a hard fought contest. What say y’all?
    • Has Elmo gotten his aggy premature extension yet?  Pay him already because you guys were exactly right - he really does “get you.” 😂🤣
    • It’s been awhile, but I seem to remember 5 D starters out & 2 O starters out (OL). A big difference is that Simon wasn’t involved yet. He’s totally changed LP’s rushing attack from last year as a bruising, explosive addition to Barnes, Sandolph & Bright. Last year—and early this season—LP was missing that element. Now, Coach Berneathy is not making talented players wait like many other coaches & even his predecessors at LP. If the kid can produce at the varsity level, they’re moved up. And man, has Simon produced! Over 1200 yards & 20 TD’s in less than a full season so far! It’s allowed LP to alternate RB’s where Barnes doesn’t take all the pounding. Barnes and Sandolph are also able to split out as receivers as desired to add threats that weren’t really an option last year. The PNG/LP game was a full-on tilt & good for both squads. I remember Gary Joseph in the end zone giving his son pointers as an extra set of eyes since he’d had experience with LP in past PO matchups. That was a good game. The score wasn’t really indicative of the game. Not sure anyone felt it was over until the final whistle! Good luck to y’all in Cajun Country. Bring back a win for SE Texas. (Yes. La Porte is still SETX. Ha!)
