What helps a good team prepare better for the post-season, blowout wins where reserves can get some game experience and "rest" starters, or highly competitive games that better simulate playoff setting?

    • Blow 'em out, get some confidence and rest for starters and experience for reserves.

    • Highly competitive, give us all you got it will only make the best even better and its more exciting to watch.

    • 50/50 balance

    • 75% highly competitive but 25% "it's nice to have an easy week"

    • (What the heck) Start 3rd string, hope it's tight, put starters in with 6 minutes left under pressure.

    • It doesn't matter, I go to hear the bands.

PAM gets accused of cupcake schedules. i don't believe in playing powerhouses early in the season,especially if your district have some within the district. imo,you load your preseason with 3-4 schools that is far superior, things like injuries and low moral happens. i say put one on there or a school that is slightly better than you. better yet,the school that bounced you from the playoffs. if your team does not make the playoffs,start weith weaker teams to build confidence,especially if your team is young.

There is an old baseball adage that states the team with the toughest road to get there usually wins it all. I think tough schedule but not ones that you have no chance of winning, and definately 1 or 2 breather games to build confidence and perhaps recharge the batteries.

      Waco La Vega (42) vs West Orange-Stark (20) - FINAL

      Still, from what little I saw, it should have been a much closer game.  WOS was missing some fundamentals on defense, and a lack of imaginative play calling on offense.  Just my opinion as an objective observer on Texan Live, which was horrible btw, but that's another story.

      West Orange Stark has been a powerhouse since I csn remember. At some point, your bound to fall off to some degree. Alabama has 3 or 4 loses this season. Who would have thought? Has Orange lost kids to LCM or even Orangefield?

      Port Neches-Groves vs Texas High

      By Bordertown · Posted

      Interesting matchup this Friday. Both teams have very good offensive and defensive lines, which will make this game interesting. Having watched Texas High all season, they have a wide open offense with very good skill players. If you look at their stats they run the ball 57% of the time and pass 43% of the time. Personally, that is a bit deceiving, as most of their games have seen reserves running the ball in the 4th quarter. I would estimate the primary offense is 50/50. Through 12 games they have run for 3,224 yds (48tds) and passed for 2,894 yds (32 yds). Potter, the Tiger QB, has been very efficient with a 69% completion rate and 1 interception (which came from a tipped pass). The passing is distributed primarily to 4 receivers…. Ball (865), Wrightner (811), Montgomery (532), & Pilgreen (392). The rushing comes from 3 running backs … Johnson (1,432), Ball (768) & Moore (716).  The Tiger defense is solid and very quick.    Hope #15 is healthy enough to play. He is a test for any defense. I was concerned about the Nederland RB, but felt Texas High did a good job containing him. I wish this game was in the afternoon, as Nachitoches is having their Festival of Lights and their will not be any rooms in the inns and restaurants will be full so plan accordingly. PNG are state champions until someone knocks them off, so I extend the Indians the respect they deserve. Pulling for the Tigers.

      The baseball coach has a ton of experience at high school and college level and hasn’t done anything for I think around 7 years now,it’s just something that the higher ups live with.And there has been talent come through that he hasn’t done anything with!
