I guess you didn't hear about the Wylie game. We have played some of the roughest teams in the state. I think our boys can handle it.

[Inmateboss]

Well here we go. I guess it is almost time to put up or shut up!!! This has been a good season for a lot of good teams. The deeper you go the harder it is to stay, as it should be!
Friday night we will let the cards fall where they may. I truly feel the STEERS will win this one if we play our game, which is to see what Monahans brings to the table, adapt and overcome. This game will not be a game of our O against their D, or our O vs their O, or D against D. This game will be won by the team thats executes in all areas. You drop passes, Dead meat. You miss Blocks, Dead meat. Turnovers, Deadmeat. Punt all night, Dead meat. This will be true for Graham,and Monahans.
Let's Do It!, No injuries, and safe travel for all.

GO GRAHAM STEERS !!!!!

Good, I'm glad you realize this was not a deep playoff run for Monahans this year.

11-1 is still cool though...I guess?

(Had to make one last little jab at you guys:))

No Daddy, the numbers during a weak schedule don't matter, it is how DEEP you go post season. That is all that matters year in, year out. This season, I would consider anything short of quarter finals a huge dissapointment. You guys have had a good season though, you can always say you beat Wylie.

Funny thing is, even after a 4-5 year and no playoffs.... our seniors are still graduating with a big fat shiny state ring on their hand. Your kids can't say that :hand:


So keep trying. Maybe one day y'all will actually win the region.. or even do the unthinkable and make a state title game... or even do the miraculous and win a state title?:rolleyes: Doubt it though.

True, but the winner of this one should make a deep playoff run. There are always a few really good teams that get knocked out early because of matchups like this. Either of these teams are probably capable of getting to the SC game, but just one wrong bounce tonight, could be all the difference needed.

I agree. It should be a great game and I for one will be pulling for the winner to win it all. I think the next round will be an easier game for the winner tonight.

Steers at the half.

Monahans Loboes have now intercepted McCoy twice in the second half and rebounded from a 30-13 halftime score to 30-28. Loboes have the ball. Starting 4th quarter. As predicted, great game. Two very good football teams. I think Graham may have thought with a 30-13 lead at half and getting the ball to start the 3rd things were in hand, I am proud of the Loboes staying with it against a very good Graham squad.

[statewide]

Graham runs it in for a TD, they aren't suppose to run! Caught Loboes with everyone in coverage. 37-28 Graham.

[wyliefan]

How much time left, go graham.

[statewide]

Not sure but it is 44-28 Graham. They have control in the middle of 4th. They are a great offensive football team and good on defense as well. Good luck to them the rest of the way. They are the real deal.

Just got home from this game. WOW what a game to watch. Much closer than the final score would lead you to believe. One very fine and sad football team is going home to Monahans tonight. Both teams played their hearts out, and left everything they had on the field. Too bad somebody had to lose this one. One of the best games I've seen in a long time.

Honestly? If Monahans had all their weapons, I think they win this by 10 or more. Not a knock on Graham at all, but I saw how good the Loboes were without those guys. Simple fact is, with them, I think Monahans scores more, and Graham scores less. But we'll never know. Both are very fine teams, and the game could have easily gone either way tonight.

Giving up 30 points in that awful 2nd quarter was too much to overcome, but they fought back after the half and made a great game of it. Graham made the plays when they needed to down the stretch.

[Z-RO]

Graham had a problem catching the football at the start of the game (1 that would have been a sure TD), but they finally got things going. Graham started both halfs very slow but warmed up as they continued. Graham could have very easily punched in another one right there at the end. In my honest opinion, if Monahans would have been 100% I think this game is a toss up.

Im sure Monahans would have scored more points, but could they have out scored Graham if they were 100%? Last time I checked it was their offense that was hurt...like I said toss up.

Side note: the Mustand Bowl is really nice.

[Deuce]

WOW, what a game!!! Both defenses had their moments, but not near the d-battle i expected. Graham came out in the 3rd qtr. and looked like a jv team, turned it around and got a great win. Hats off to the Loboes. They had alot better running game than i expected. This was a classic battle.

Have to disagree a little. All their weapons that were lost were on offense from my understanding, so i think we could have scored just as much. And who knows, if they would have had all their weapons maybe our D would have been a little more amped up than they were. By far this is the worst game that I have seen our D play since Bridgeport. Either way it was a great game!

Due to popular demand I think the following. In 2009 we were robbed by poor calls at the end of the game to steal region from the Loboes. Last night the better team won the game. Big difference. I have never cried about officiating before the Bridgeport game. It ruined the game for me. Three years ago against Snyder Titus was started as a sophomore and we were killed but he got valuable experience. The 08 class lost any chance to advance to give him playoff experience. Last year all the juniors were the go to guys, named all state, etc. The Loboes were counting on this season for some reason, I didn't see it. But they had it in their mind that this was the team. I read comparisons in the paper a couple of times about why this years team was undefeated and "better" than the 09 squad. I felt the whole time it was due to the weak schedule but I just kept reading. I think it is innapropriate to talk about why you are better than a previous team from your own school but apparantly it was allowed this season. I think Monahans let a great chance slip away in 09. They had a great group of juniors and seniors. I have been quieter lately because I didn't think this team would go as far as some did. Titus and Owens were very solid, Denton was good but that's not enough for a state run, particularly when two of these three were lost. I hoped with all I had they could pull it off, but never expected it. They beat Sweetwater and to this day think they got the football giant but this is not a typical sweetwater team. False confidence was built. I hate if for the kids, a very good group of young men. Congratulations to Graham, you are very good. With Titus and Denton, game would have been better as Monahans would have had it on Offense more but would not have changed the outcome in my opinion.
p.s. The 09 team beats this years Graham team by 3 touchdowns!

A great job by both teams from all accounts. Monahans Loboes I think ended 11-1, nothing to be ashamed of, great season. Good luck to the Steers, blow out the Bulls!

actually not. I am a Loboe football fanatic, but have not been around long as you, but I do love the green every season. I watched us really suck it up in 03 and 04, then bringing in a new coach and have the best team I have seen in a long time in 05. I thought in 09 we had similar talent and came inches from going as far as the 05 group. I think we had talent this year, particularly in the group of seniors just not as much, but you may be right, I don't know all the kids. You really think this group was better than 05? May have been and I may be wrong. NowI line up behind the 2011 class and hope they have more than it seems to give us another good run next season. I was so emotional after the loss last year, I made many enemies on this board. I wouldn't let myself get so worked up this season. Maybe that is why I was not sold as much as many were on this season. Good luck to the Loboes. I'll drop off again before I make someone else mad.

This Lobo team is great team. But not as good as 13-1 2005 team. 2005 team overall has better defense and offense, and played a tougher schedule going 10-0 regular season. Better coaching staff top to bottom also. 2005 team probably best team in Monahans history comrades.

I agree but think it was the same coaching staff. I believe it was the AD's first year (2005). I remember losing the heartbreaker to Sweetwater, we played Bridgeport the week before in their stadium and they were very good and ready for us the following week. We were behind by like 4 points in the fourth, punted it and they immediately scored, game was over. It was a great team and a great year. They had Graves and Roberson, both exceptional runners.

Congradulations to Graham they did do a great job!!! but Monahans dline did put lots of pressure on McCoy they did a great job that's why they got some holding calls our guys are hard to block the refs could of called them all night.
But here is what Graham did to adjust to that they used quick time routes rolled out and found openings in our Zone it takes a kid like McCoy that has been the starter for 4 years to be able to do this in HS. Brad has been running the spread for a long time from his days in at Jim Ned with Colt and it showed great job.
Loboes made lots of mistakes that you cant do in the Playoffs against any team. In the second half we started to get our run game going 30 t 28 we force a big turnover but we were very conservative there and it cost us. We punted refs did not see the clip on the Return and they started the drive on our 26. Very short field and they punched it in thats like a turnover. 37 t 28 at that point we get the ball a comit a stupid personal foul big mistake. Then we get called for a holding call man that flag almost came out the same time we snapped the ball WOW that puts us in a 1st and 20 the way our offense is we can not afford to be in these situations that hurt us so we had to become a pass team again. Penalties and a sack pinned us and punting from deep again they get them the short field again this time our 30 they are good enough and found a seem in our zone and scored. They found that they could attack one our corners and did it in the first half twice, that was a poor job by our secondary but that's Football.

Overall losing 4 starters on offense was a big key against a great Football team we moved up some JV players and they contributed well Our entire backfield that played the playoffs will return FB-soph, RB junior, JVrb Soph, QB-junior. Our entire secondary will return but 1 corner and the best Linebacker in the state #40 probably finished the year with about 150 tackles he runs a 4.5 he will be back. If we stay healthy we can be back and be better we will have to rebuild our o and d line but that is what we do our JV has not lost in over 3 1/2 years and Fresh are solid also undefeated. Lobo Football will be strong again next year I wish Graham good luck with Bridgeport.

Go Loboes!!!

Have to disagree a little. All their weapons that were lost were on offense from my understanding, so i think we could have scored just as much. And who knows, if they would have had all their weapons maybe our D would have been a little more amped up than they were. By far this is the worst game that I have seen our D play since Bridgeport. Either way it was a great game!

Your overlooking a huge factor. Monahans ran the ball well as it was, and controled the clock for the most part. Had they had all their offensive weapons, I think they would have dominated the clock, and Graham would have had at least 4 fewer possesions. I think the Loboes would have scored at least 2 more touchdowns with all their offensive studs (especially Titus), and the Steers would have scored two less TDs, having fewer possesions. And it would have still been as great of a game to watch, just a different outcome. Then again, we'll never really know.

And as good as I think the Graham Steers are, the lack of a good rushing game is going to jump up and bite them in the butt. You will eventually meet a D that will slow that passing game way down. Teams without good rushing games DO NOT win state championships! Mark it down.

This Lobo team is great team. But not as good as 13-1 2005 team. 2005 team overall has better defense and offense, and played a tougher schedule going 10-0 regular season. Better coaching staff top to bottom also. 2005 team probably best team in Monahans history comrades.

In 3A Monahans History maybe but all 80's 4A team was better than 2005

[Russki]

Statewide, I respect your opinion. The same staff is not intact. Rivera was the receivers coach and retired. Rivera had many years of experience. McWilliams was the defensive ends and strength coach, and is now the head coach at Petrolia. Burns was the running backs coach, and is now the head coach at Thorndale. Spivey was the defensive tackles coach, and is now the head coach at Junction. Junction got to the state semi-finals last year. I would like to congratulate Spivey, McWilliams, and Burns. All of these coaches got their 1A teams to the playoffs this year. McWilliams and Burns in their first years at their respective programs. So 4 of the 8 coaches from the 2005 team are gone. Head Coach Owens, Simpson, Roark, and Mitchell are still there off of the 2005 staff. The 2005 team had a great offensive line, with Birdwell and Swanson being All-State. Graves and Roberson were the running backs, and were better than any running backs that they have now. Graves was All-State. The defense had Richardson and Wisnand, both All-State defensive ends. Jasso was a great middle linebacker who was on the All West Texas Super Team. The secondary had Collins and Fann, who are better athletes and players than anyone that they have now. To put it bluntly comrade, the 2005 team was loaded for bear. The game against Sweetwater was between two 13-0 teams, and Monahans still would like to replay that game.

I honestly dont know why. It was pretty obvious the better team won. Dont get me wrong, it was a great game between two great teams, but Sweetwater was obviously much much much faster, and just better all the way around.

Errr... Monahans wasn't 13-0 in '05. They lost to us in district... :D

[DukeNukem]

This was a great game to watch. Here are my takes on the game.

1. Graham is a great ball club and was able to answer each time it looked as the momentum had swung in Monahans favor.

2. Both teams had some calls that went against them and for them. The big ones were missed calls on some juggling catches and the holding calls that always seem to get called on running teams but not passing teams as there is just to much for the officials to keep track of on spread passing plays.

3. McCoy is the real deal. Saw Colt play in high school and Case is every bit as good of a passer. Not sure on the runner as he is not asked to do much.

4. Was very impressed with the two sophomore running backs Monahans used in the second half. These two are going to run for lots of yards over the next 2 years for Monahans.

5. Monahans #40 and Grahams #2 are two of the best linebackers I have seen at the 3a level. Also the lineman that Graham used in the power I set is a beast.

6. The 2 main keys to the Graham victories were depth and field position. The star players Monahans lossed this year were offensive starters, but the domino effect killed Monahans chances at a state title. The injured offensive starters had to be replaced by defensive starters which made them have to play both sides of the ball the entire game. This is a big disadvantage against a team that can 2 platoon.

Congrats to Graham and good luck next week.

Well said! But you left out we were out coached.
18 seconds before half Graham goes deep on a 1 on 1 for 50 yrds.To make it 30-13 at half instead of 23-13'You have 1 of the best QB in 3A where else do you think he is going???? Ever heard of prevent D??????Brought back memories of Midland High when they lost to Converse Judson on the last play of the game for the State Championship.Bet that coach wish he could turn back time.

congrats Graham!

This Monahans poster will support Graham the rest of the way but has a special spot in his heart after watching the yellow flags erase the big lead we had against Bridgeport last year along with our poor defensive play.
