Not sure about putting Lampasas in there. Their one point win over Manor was not too impressive. I think they scored the game winning point as time expired too.

I just looked at the teams in Region 4 for the first time. Seems awfully weak. Not sure who you would put in a top 5.

I think its pretty clear that the only two obvious top 5 are Cuero and Wimberley. And though I enjoy seeing CueroDad put Wimberley ahead of Cuero (I thank you for the respect), I think either one of them could be in that spot come regular season end. Round 2 will be the battle...assuming both make it that far. And in my view, looking at the schedules, its a damned good bet that this match-up will indeed take place.

It's as safe a bet as betting on Brownwood to win it all!! LOL:D

Like I said late friday night, The Gobblers have already marked it down that area round. They will not look ahead at all, they just want to remember how that felt, and not let it happen again. The Gobblers know who is going to be in town this friday. They will be ready.

Region 4 is no where as deep as the other regions, especially Region 1 and 2. But thats ok...a State Champ just might come out of it anyways!

Very true. There are still some very good teams in region 4 just not as many as other regions. Let those other regions beat the crap out of each other. Then region 4 can come in fresh and take the trophy.

I think it just jumped out at me more than before because Liberty Hill has been in region 3 and Region 1 for the last 4 years. But we made it further in those regions than we did in region 4. Odd:thinking:

Not positive what Lampasas has, but have heard they have a good running back and QB and a good linebacker. A lot seems to be made of the fact they dropped down from 4a after making the playoffs last year. But I think the district they were in at the 4a level was very weak last year. So I'm not sure to make much of that playoff berth.
Also I think they got a new coach last year and he seems to be changing things for them in a positive way. Like I said I don't know much about them. Things are quiet in the Austin area about Lampasas.

No matter how good the Region 4 teams may be, we never get much respect. And that happens year after year!

We played them in the early 90's in the playoffs and lost. Never heard of them before that. Thought we might see each other again this year.

They should make the playoffs this year.

What does the Lampasas district look like? Who are the frontrunners for the post season?

District 25
Burnet
Lampasas
Liberty Hill
Llano
Salado
Taylor

I would say Liberty Hill, Burnet, Lampasas

I don't think so. I think that Lampassas gets bumped out and it is Llano or Salado that get in and Burnet goes Div 1. JMO

1. Burnet
2. Liberty Hill
3. Llano
4. Lampasas
5. Salado
6. Taylor

Region IV Top 5 for me
1. Wimberley tough game coming up against the Bears though.
2. Cuero tough pre district tough district schedule could get rough for the gobblers
3. LaVernia 2nd toughest Pre District and District Schedule behind Cuero
4. Sinton you forgot about the Pirates
5. Sam Houston

Coach BS

08-31-2010, 03:29 PM

Wimberly
Cuero
LaVernia

This is my top 5 keep showing no respect for Sinton. Past two years have made some good runs and offensively one of the tops in the region. Sinton improves defensively they will get back to region final and hopefully come out with a win this time.

With all due respect to Sinton, I thought about putting you guys in my top 10. I just have no idea what you have this year. I assume you'll be competitive as usual and could end up in my top five. I just don't think anyone should be put there based on last year. I wouldn't have put La Vernia there either, but they impressed me against Wylie.

I don't know about this years' RB. From the little I know (which isn't much lol) their best RB graduated last year. Unless he was on Varsity in 2007, I didn't see him play. I did see him throw the discus & shot at several meets the past 2-3 years and he was good!

I wonder if the win over Manor by 1 may be a sign of this years' team. :thinking:

I think you may be right. Looking at their stats it seems to be a running back by committee type thing. The QB only passed twice all game against Manor. Not only did they beat Manor by one, they scored on the last play of the game to get the touchdown. Meaning no extra point was attempted at the end.

Sam Houston has some incredible talent on their team this year. But beating 4A Brackenridge big time is only one game and I'm not sold on Brack. They look top 5 so far, with who they put on the field though.

Speaking about Manor. Don't they always start real strong and then kind of fade away toward the end of the season?:thinking:
