No doubt. El Paso teams ALWAYS lose to either panhandle or Permian Basin teams in the second round...
Dude is a total freak. Should be 5A player of the year for Houston and maybe all of Texas. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eygKqRMd94U
Went to see Stratford beat Chavez 35-16, today. Andrew Luck is sick. The Cy Fair running back is unreal. He MAY end up being Houston's all-time scoring leader if they keep winning. He'd pass STRATFORD'S CRAIG JAMES (1978) if that happens.
wow. looks like the old high school got it's ass whooped by Katy. Hopefully on monday, they find out Katy used an ineligible player or something. that makes it an ass whooping of seven ass whoopings in through the last six years. I think that makes it two postseason defeats, and five in the regular season.

heh..heh...no comment Euless Trinity had a Great RB tandem, and one of them is Now Out. Although SLC just isn't as good as they were the previous years (defensively), plus the ALWAYS get off to a slow start. (I see these guys play at least 3 times every year for the last few years) However I still see Carroll beating Trinity due to Trinity losing a bit of offensive power with their RB loss. (I personally would like to see Trinity win though) Although that is a GREAT game...it's not THE GAME this week. #1 Texas High is taking on #2 Highland Park in Shreveport. I look for Texas High to take this one because HP just doesn't have the defense it used to have. I'll be leaving at 7am on Friday for this game. Also, if you want to see another good game in the Metroplex, check out Celina vs. Dallas Madison. Another matchup of top 10 teams. Also, There's a much better atmosphere surrounding the Celina team than there is with Carroll. I usually enjoy watching the smaller classes though. okay..okay...I'll admit it...Pearland will probably give North Shore (go 'Stangs) a tough time this year. I think my beloved Shore is a bit overated this season (although I hope not).
Really? I've heard they are as strong as ever defensively, although I haven't seen them this year and you have. I'm pulling for ET so Permian can have another shot at them in the next round, assuming they beat SA Central. ET whipped Permian pretty good in non-district earlier this year, but Permian has improved a lot since then. On SLC, I can't BELIEVE they've won 74 out of their last 75 games. That is just amazing. Has any other school had a run like that? Ever? Sure would be fun to see SLC and Katy in the same division and have them meet in the Finals. Too bad it won't happen.
That was a helluva game, too. Having 2 different divisions (and thus 2 5A Champions) seems kind of silly. I miss the old days where there was ONE State Champion.
Yeah it was. That was the only time I've been in a sports bar going nuts for a high school game. I can't believe it's split off in all classifications now. Watered down.
I had the most school pride on that day then all the other days in my life combined. Partying on the Riverwalk that night was awesome.
Celina won 72 in a row including 4 straight state championships. I was at the 73 game when they lost to Daingerfield. It was the first year they moved up to 3A and they still went to the Area Finals (or was it the area semifinals...I cant' remember what round of the playoffs it was in..but it was a couple of rounds deep). alright...I'm heading out to Shreveport for the Highland Park- Texas High game in 10 minutes... its 6:50am and I'd rather be at home sleeping to be honest.
Went to the Stratford game today. They lost by one point. They missed 2 extra points. The field at Reliant Stadium was a joke. I can't believe it was that bad...reminded me of (old) Candlestick Park. Ridiculously sloppy. Kids were slipping all over the place.
Cy-Fair is still alive, so that's cool. (and Woody Williams signed with the Astro so good week for the Bobcats).
