Well who expected Sinton to get this far? Congrats on a great season so far. Proud for Reg 4 to have a tradition rich program representing, or should I say repreSinton!

Fairfield will be another animal from all we've heard this season. Good luck to both and congrats to Fairfield as well for making it this far. I picked Fairfield in my bracket so I've gotta hold true to that, but give 'em hell Sinton! ;)

I love that... "repreSinton"! Win or lose, our boys always give 'em hell. The worst thing a team can do is underestimate us. Never underestimate the heart of a pirate! It can bite you in the arse if you do. We may not be bigger, we may not be faster, but we're also not afraid! We Love our Mighty Sinton Pirates! :2thumbsup:inlove:

[Roxy5252]

Have heard a lot of talk about Fairfield, however I heard a lot of talk about La Vernia and the unbeatable, huge, quick, bend but don't break defense and Sinton beat that defense. No doubt this game will be a tough one but I have faith in the pirates and #piratenation. Sinton is peaking at the right time. Go Sinton.

I read much of this as well. Coach Allen had a great game plan for both sides of the ball and the players executed. So many teams are playing thump thump right now, but you guys are in the Semis and are gelling at the right time.

[Roughneck93]

Sinton side right??? 


Yeah I'll be sitting with the Pirates.

Good luck to Sinton.

Yeah, I saw that and wasn't sure how to count that since I wasn't sure how many rounds were even played back then LOL

[Matthew328]

Sinton fans should be happy I am taking Fairfield, my Coastal Bend picks have sucked...took Calallen to win the region, they get beat....picked Alamo Heights to beat Calhoun that didnt work out...picked East Bernard to beat Refugio and that went against me....Sinton fans can go ahead and make hotel plans in Arlington at this rate!

[HEMOTOXIC]

I'm sticking with my pick since week 4 or 5.

Eagles by 21+

[sinfan75]

Sinton gonna have to play a very very solid game to beat Fairfield! The one thing the Pirates do have in their favor is pressure-they shouldn't have any. Fairfield is gonna be heavily favored and rightly so! But if they go into the game over-confident and start makin mistakes, Sinton might have a chance.

Don't think I get to make this game..... We have friends coming in from out of town.... Wish this game could have been played Saturday......

GATA Sinton.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[toddg]

from what im hearing from friends that have seen them..Fairfield is a confident, but humble team..execute very well, and play with class..this should be a very good game

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Last time Sinton at this round was 2001, here is some video of that year. Starting it on region iv final round game against Bellville in Victoria......... http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=cB8Bw128lDo#t=2812

[texasboys]

Fairfield has been on the right side of multiple turnovers in the first two or three series of every big game they play in. If Sinton wants to have a chance they have to not give them the freebies that Fairfield has grown accustomed to in the big ones

Fairfield has been on the right side of multiple turnovers in the first two or three series of every big game they play in. If Sinton wants to have a chance they have to not give them the freebies that Fairfield has grown accustomed to in the big onesFairfield will see a power running game out of the shotgun formation and they can pound the ball with the qb and their 3 running backs that come in at certain times and Sinton started off as a passing team before going to the power running game so they can air it out also. All this happens if Sinton offensive line continues to control the line of scrimmage.

[texasboys]

Rockdale averaged 41 ppg coming in. Qb was a 3,000 yard passer and 600 yard rusher. Also had a 1500 yard back. Very balanced football team. FF is very solid against the run, hope Sinton can chunk it around some

FF is very solid against the run, hope Sinton can chunk it around someYes impressive numbers for Fairfield. We'll know how it all plays out Friday night and most likely turnovers will be a key.

Sinton defense will be the key if they can stop that high power scoring machine by Fairfield, Sinton comes in giving up an average in their last 6 games(55 pts) 9.1 pts/game. Have to look up the stats again but don't think any team has gotten over 300 yds of offense on Sinton defense last 7 games.

Sinton qb stats for this season and career, he's a junior this season:
This year totals
Rush 2485 Pass 1531 Total 4016 yards
Touchdowns
Rushing 37 Passing 12 Total 49 touchdowns

Career stats
Rushing 4747 Passing 4609 Total 9356 yards

Anyone have the OL/DL sizes for both?

If any of last seasons OL are back for Fairfield, wow. They looked like a college sized OL last season.

[Ranger354]

Looks like another one of these know-it-alls that is so proud of his team he does not list where he is from.

Safe travels to all involved.!

Rose broke out with a couple of big runs...Most of Fairfield's damage was set up with the passing game or with their defense

I hope this is true. No matter what happens when the game is over it is always more enjoyable when both teams play with class. I know coach Allen expects the sinton players to play with class and composure.

GO SINTON

[eagles_victory]

Knowing most of the FF staff personally you couldn't ask for a better group of guys to be leading these young men. Very happy for the kids and staff both have worked hard to have this great season.


It is funny for me and Coach we have always represented FF on the downlow and always debated with all these Sinton posters and after all these years our towns are finally meeting in this huge game to go to the state championship.

Will you be able to go? I talked to your brother and he didn't think he would be there. I know Coach will be there.

It's crazy, huh? :)

[MUSTANG69]

Yep. Just one of those weak D30 teams that just got lucky and made it to the semi-finals. Sinton should throw in the towel now. Give us a break.

No I won't make it I am coaching in a tournament in Pasadena Friday night. Needless to say I am not real happy about it. It is basically a six person tag match downlow style... Mwynn05, Coach, and EV vs Pirates4state, Phil C, and District303apastplayer.

GO PIRATES!!!

[squigleman]

Having seen fairfield several times this year i think their defense is lucky, not good, no one seems real disciplined at any spot. they seem opportunistic and selfish, every one from the nose to the safeties out to make a play. Sinton's running game should wreak havoc with the undersized backers.

You can't do what Fairfield's defense has done and be selfish. "everyone from the nose to the safeties out to make a play"? Of course they are. Isn't that their job? All I can say is WOW. If holding opponents to the minimal yardages and points that the Fairfield defense has is selfish I for one will take it. I can say that you couldn't be more wrong. I know a lot of these kids personally. Selfish isn't anywhere close to accurate.

A Argyle/Fairfield match up would be epic. When I hear chatter of FF being kinda like the '83 Daingerfield team (best team I ever seen), this would be one of the all time best state title contest's IMO. If both play their game this week, it should come about in the final. Take care of business, and make it happen for the Texas High School football fan's out there. Wow!!!

GO PIRATES!!! Like the Pirates chances with their run game, imo they'll going to be surprised just like La Vernia's coaching staff was when they realized Sinton could run it on them. We'll see, Sinton team keeps playing with max effort on each play good things will keep happening for them.

Lucky is winning the lottery, lucky is winning a car at a give away at the mall. When you go out and dominate 14 times luck isn't even in the conversation. I've heard all year that Fairfields undersized backers we're going to be exposed... 14 have tried 14 have come up woefully short.

You can tell FF knows their weakness is the defensive front. Everything is packed in to stop the run. The man coverage is going to get torched eventually (Sadler). Rockdale's qb play was down with his separated throwing shoulder. Didn't help that the top wr was on crutches either. As long as FF doesn't give up bombs it's difficult to run it on them

[SintonFan_inAustin]

looking for some sort of video on FF.... nothing. maybe I am not looking in the right places. some of the video I've seen, they must have been ahead by a lot with their back ups in there. Sinton ground game will give them limited opportunities on offense. I think Orange Grove offense had a more quick strike to them than what we've seen thus far and Fairfield falls into that category so game plan could resemble that game.

I thought Sinton was going to lose to Cuero then I thought they were going to lose to La Vernia so I am definetly not counting Sinton out.

You Fairfield folks get P4S riled up and you're in trouble---she's worth a touchdown in the stands by herself....definitely Sinton's "12th Woman"..:D

"In your opinion" snothead, Sinton never had a chance. IMO you have been wrong 100%. So I like our odds.

Like comparing a Ford Pinto to a corvette. :doh:

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Orange Grove? lol ok

Same concept, they average 50 pts a game and unbeaten when we faced them and game plan was to control the clock and keep their offense off the field.

Can you imagine the crowd a Argyle/FF game would draw? Though I'm not sure anyone knew FF would be this dominating.

FF will bring everyone from the town and a lot that don't live there if we somehow make it.

Sounds like everyone but 1 person stuck at work...

I think this match up would draw 30k+. UIL and JJ drooling. LOL.

[LV_Bearfan]

This main difference with Sinton over other teams that La Vernia faced this year was: On offense, Sinton is very good at reducing your number of defenders in pursuit. Then, even though one guy gets there in time to stop the play, their runners have enough skill and size to break a tackle or make him miss just enough to get critical yards. Their QB has unique talent at doing this. It is back breaking for defenses that are accustomed to getting off the field by making big stops on third and fourth downs. This is the biggest reason FF is facing Sinton and not someone else. They have enough size to counter smaller, faster defenses. That is why I give them more than a puncher's chance.

We are talking about possibly one of Texas best 3A teams of all time here in FF. And, Sinton is comparing OG to them.:doh:

I'll say, Fairfield by 40.

I don't think anyone said they think Orange Grove does what they do as well as FF but rather that they attempt to do many of the same things.
If I were to look at a defensive game plan, wouldn't it be at least somewhat similar to what was used against Orange Grove? There are differences. Namely FF is better that OG, and Sinton is better than when they played OG. I don't have a problem with that comparison. I'll save the praise of FF until this is all over. If they are last team standing, then they will deserve high praise.

So you'll keep trying to get it right every round that Sinton will get blown out? not sure what you posted on our 1st round game. Since you've mention before your originally from Raymondville i think your keeping that in your back pocket to use at the very end that even Raymondville beat Sinton lol!!

No, I never lived in Raymondville. Have step family that is in that school system though. And, did see that game between you two. FF would beat Raymondville by 40 as well. I'm originally from SA. Live between Floresville and LV currently. Travel all over south Texas thanks to E-F-S. Seen several games. Never seen FF play, true. But, know the caliber of opponents they have beaten, and don't come close to what ya'll beat to get here. They beat a solid Navasota team in district, badly-- and I think they could beat Sinton soundly themselves. MP ranks them 19th and Sinton 174 in the state. This team is scary good. And, when I hear Daingerfield '83 compared, it really peaks my interest in them. Cause, that was the best team I ever seen.

I agree with this 100%. Sinton is a lot better than some people are giving them credit for. Teams still playing in this round are all here for a reason. Will Sinton win? I don't know. That's why you line up and play the game. I'm not discounting Fairfield at all, but I think Sinton will surprise a lot of people. I'm pulling for the Pirates and hope they come home with the win.

Just had our Christmas luncheon at work. It was catered by Sinton's Back Street Cafe. If Sinton plays as good as those folks cook they will for sure win.

Keep doing what your doing "snot". You keep saying Sinton will lose and they keep winning. If you picked Sinton to win, then I would be worried.

[Snotbubbles]

Keep doing what your doing "snot". You keep saying Sinton will lose and they keep winning. If you picked Sinton to win, then I would be worried.

Where you see I keep picking them to lose? Only game I have picked to them to lose was LV game. I had no pick vs. Cuero, though I started the Sinton/Cuero thread. Said it would be a competitive game. Only other comment I had in regards to Sinton, was when you played the opening round of playoffs, and I said your entire district would sweep. As they did. Do some research before making blanket statements please. I'm sorry you don't like my prediction last two weeks.

I don't like what I seen vs. Cuero, last play of game, your guy standing over that Gobbler receiver. Think he was telling him, "good game'? Nor, that rude way you blare those tunes during opponents school song and when someone is trying to congratulate another team after a loss.

I'll be there. Watching Fairfield. They will run all over sinton, I'm sorry I just don't see sinton winning this game. Sinton may be a good football team but Fairfield is a great football team. Fairfield by 20 like I said

I am sure FF can score points rather quickly, but if Sinton can get up a score and get 3-4 yds per carry they can milk the clock. If that ends up happening in the game FF might not have enough time to put themselves 20 points ahead. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Sinton coach try and put together 7-8 minute TD drives.

[Snotbubbles]

I guess ya'll have a different style of manners down that way. Who is home, FF or Sinton? FF will shut that crap down quick if you try to blare those tunes towards them.

"Pirates on their awesome show of sportsmanship, when every Sinton player went to the Cuero bench to congratulate the injured Gobblers not able to cross field.

Hey snot, this was from the Sinton vs Cuero thread. I guess you did not stick around long enough for this. Kids are kids but in the end Sinton has great sportsmanship. Their coach requires it.

[Snotbubbles]

Good. Crickets will be heard IMO. LV_Bearfan, yes Sinton took it to ya'll. They were fired up all night. More so, then the Cuero game IMO. But, I will also say, that was the Bears worse game I seen them play. Middle was open all night, to repeat that long TD pass you did score on. Another pass (same play) was dropped. Then, stopped going over middle. Bears were determined to pound Gill up in there over and over, when I would of had Skelton throwing it more. Get the Sinton "D" to loosen up a bit. Then run Vince. And, not sure I ever seen the bad snaps, YAC's by opposing runners on LV D, as I did here. I will give Sinton credit, but--I didn't see any adjustments made by Bears at half either to contain, and to loosen the Pirates D up by throwing it.

Honestly, I think the Bears won their Super Bowl when they made history the week before. It's tough to build that championship expectation when you haven't been there before. I can only hope next year the team's unspoken expectations will be higher. I noticed the difference during the game. Showing up to play is part of the equation. I was impressed with Sinton's mental toughness. I had never noticed LV players walk to the line after a huddle like they did in that game. Maybe they always do that, but it was striking to me. I credit Sinton for why LV didn't look the same. That's all I can do.

coach, how did FF JV do this season?

and freshman?

And, how many you got coming back in 2014 off this team?

[eagleqb_14]

Freshamn and JV oth are not very talented. Most of the starters are seniors, the defensive line has some juinors and sophmores on it. They will lose alot of their offense after this year

[SintonFan_inAustin]

[FBLAg]

That's being a little hard eagleqb_14. Fairfield will lose many talented seniors, but there are a good number of juniors and sophomores coming back. Quite a number of the underclassmen have contributed a lot this season, including some from the JV that have played in the second half of playoff games. I did not watch any JV or Freshman games this year, but I do know that this year's sophs only lost one game during their freshman year, and that was to Navasota. They will reload for next year, but for now, just looking for a win over Sinton.

[eagles_victory]

Good to see FF finally showing a presence on the downlow me and coach and 05 were here as the only 3 for about 8 years now.

[sinfan75]

Last post until after the fact! I've already picked my winner (Fairfield 35-21). But if Fairfield can't control the LOS on defense it could be a problem. Gonna be interesting to see what happens.

Not true. The JV started off playing pretty well, but several (actually most) of their weapons were pulled up to the varsity at one point or other during the season. The freshman group has great lineman and the skill players have improved dramaticly. The future of Fairfield football is going to be just fine.

FWIW: From Dave Campbell's TexasFootball.com:

Fairfield (14-0) vs. Sinton (12-2)
7:30 p.m. Friday at Katy's Rhodes Stadium
Here comes a statement that will either delight or disgust Sinton fans: I think the Pirates are the biggest underdog in a state semifinal. Now, that has very little to do with Sinton itself – QB Tyler Handson has been absolutely fabulous, and the defense really impressed me in the win over La Vernia, with LB Tracker Conn and DE Mike Huerta. But for one: Region III is a really, really deep part of the Division II bracket. And two: Fairfield is an absolute buzzsaw. Last week, the defense shined in shutting down an explosive Rockdale squad, using Devin Eggins, Jeremiah Simpson and Dedrick Garner to keep them from even breathing. From there, the offense – RB Larry Rose and QB Jacob Gallegos – did their thing. They are, right now, as dominant as anyone in the state at any level. Can Sinton pull off the upset? Sure, especially if its defense continues to play as well as it did against La Vernia. But Fairfield hasn’t showed signs of slowing, and it’ll take a special effort to derail them.
Tepper’s pick: Fairfield 38, Sinton 22

Safe travels to everyone involved.From Waco newspaper : “It’s a different brand of football in South Texas, so we haven’t really seen a team like them,” Fairfield coach John Bachtel said.

The Eagles’ offensive line will have to deal with a small and quick defense.

“It’s like 11 little missiles out there,” Bachtel said. “If we can get better at zoning their 4-2 defense, we’re going to be better on Friday night.”

I believe TexasFootball.com has had Sinton as the underdog in every round except for possibly the first. I'm thinking Sinton rather relishes being in the role of the "underdog" who comes out and shocks everyone but themselves. I hope you guys keep that going tonight. Best of luck tonight, and safe travels.

Lol! I like that... " 11 little missiles". I just got back from the send off for our boys. I write this with a huge lump in my throat. I'm so dang proud of these boys. Last nights city wide pep rally was so amazing. Hearing from past Sinton teams who have made it this far, and beyond, was truly inspirational for our team. WIN or lose, it's been a great ride. These boys will forever be brothers. our future looks bright and I am confident we will be back in this round again within a season or two. Good luck and safe travels to all fans.

Um...actually no. You are not correct. First off, you don't give a higher number to the "best," you give a lower. Also, I did not rank overall record and overall %. That is overkill. They are the same data. And, totaling and averaging gives you the same result. The higher the total...the higher the avg, and vice versa. If you don't like the data, that is fine. Make your own that works out the way you want it to. I simply wanted to see what the numbers would say. Have a nice day.

Make your own that works out the way you want it to. I simply wanted to see what the numbers would say. Have a nice day.

I didn't mean to put a wrinkle on your forehead. You have a good day as well.

Congrats to an outstanding Fairfield Eagles team for a win and trip to the SC game, and congrats to the Sinton Pirates for making it all the way to the semis and adding to their outstanding playoff legacy.

[LV_Bearfan]

Congrats Pirates on a great run!
Good luck Eagles.

[pirate4state]

congratulations to the Fairfield Eagles. What an amazing team. If it weren't against my beloved Pirates I would have enjoyed that more. Lol. Our Pirates fought hard, but Fairfield was just on another level. thank you pirates for a wonderful year. I would say more, but I gotta get on the road.
Go win state Fairfield

[hsfootballfan]

Congrats Fairfield on the win. And congrats Sinton on a great season. Truly sorry to see it come to an end. Best of luck next year. Good luck to Fairfield in the championship game.

Couldn't be more proud of my boys!

[Papá Oso]

We are talking about possibly one of Texas best 3A teams of all time here in FF. And, Sinton is comparing OG to them.:doh:

I'll say, Fairfield by 40.

Dang near nailed it :thumbsup:

Good run you've been on Snot, pretty much spot on in LV's first 3 rounds and then again tonight. 4 out of 5 isn't too bad ;)

Congratulations to Fairfield on making it to Jerry World, should be a heck of a championship game. Good season Sinton, safe travels back south. Guess that's one way to pull the plug on the "Music" :thinking:

[eagleqb_14]

Congrats on Sintons great season

[PhiI C]

Congrats on Sintons great season

Thank you and I agree. The Pirates by far exceeded our expectations and best of luck to Fairfield next week.

[bd62]

Did Sintons JV come instead of their varsity?

People like this guy usually played JV for 3 yrs and the only reason he was on varsity his last yr was a Sr benchwarmer
Had plenty of time on bench to come up with smart a$$ post. Guy has no class. 99 percent of Farfield and Sinton posters have class . It tough to get to semi finals. Great season Sinton and good luck to a great Fairfield team next week

[Manso/V8]

Navasota's two loses came to Fairfield and Carthage.

What were the scores?

[ADKargyleTCU12]

Argyle will be ready for you, FF.

[FBLAg]

Proud of the Fairfield Eagles! Great game! Congrats to Sinton on a great season. I thought there was a lot of sportsmanship showed by both teams tonight. Also, hated to see the Sinton player go down. Hope that he is okay!

[Roxy5252]

Great year for the Sinton Pirates, it was exciting to be a part of the amazing run. Got beat tonite by an outstanding team. Fairfield is the real deal. We don't see teams in south Texas like this very often. FF is one of the best all around teams I have ever seen all the numbers are real. Go win state FF. It makes it alot easier to deal with losing when the team that beat you wins it all.

[regaleagle]

Argyle says HI to Fairfield. I"ve only heard two teams all season where the opposiition said they are just on a different level. It wasn't Graham, Stephenville, Carthage, or Kilgore. It was Argyle and Fairfield. They can talk about DI all they want....oh geez.....the larger enrollment automatically means they are better. Give me a break!!! The enrollment difference isn't even 500 students for the entire student body....which correlates to very little when comparing quality football squads. I say get off the high horse and see things for what is reality. This is not 5A, or 4A. This is 3A. Some years.....a team goes D1. Another year, the same size team goes D2. Don't talk to me about Divisions....talk to me about dominance on the field.

So I guess I'm saying this to Fairfiled: Great seasn and great job so far. I am so impressed with your team and your season. Congrats to the Sinton Pirates for making it waaay further than most prognosticators thought. That team came alive and competed most famously. Kudos to them. But....the Fairfield Eagles are not pretenders against a weak schedule. They are the real deal. This team is setting records.....all time 3A records, mind you. I want to see Fairfield and Argyle play in a knock-down, drag out fight to the finish of who's best in 3A D2 this season. If Graham is better and beats Argyle tormorrow nite, then let's see that game. But I don't think so. It's before the game, and I'm sittin' here and sayin'......Argyle's the real deal, too. If there's a team that could upend Argyle besides Fairfield this season, IMO it would be this Graham Steers team. I think they are that good. But not quite good enough for the 2013 Argyle Eagles that willl win it all, barring a major iinjury to one of our key players. If that doesn't happen, Graham will have all they can handle and so will Fairfiield. You heard it here from me.....and I don't usually stick my foot in my mouth. Congrats to the Fairfield Eagles for just a great season so far. What can you say??? Except.....there is one game left, and there can be only one!

[Ranger354]

Hats off to FF and an outstanding group of young men. Sinton's offense seemed to never get on track. FF is good on both sides of the ball. Good luck FF next week.

[MustangFootball]

Congrats on the win Fairfield....great season Sinton keep y'all's heads up, y'all made all us district 30 folks proud.

[Epicpirates]

Did Sintons JV come instead of their varsity?

Wow! Humble much? What a jerk!!! It's a good thing your team shows a lot more class than you do. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. Those boys worked their butts off to be where they are, and having someone like you belittle them like that is pathetic beyond words. They are kids, and I'm assuming you are an adult...act like one! Your team was bigger better and faster, and earned that win. Let them enjoy it without an idiot like you tarnishing it. So many things I could say, but I would love to not get booted off of this site, but I'm thinking it! Ohhhh, am I thinking it! :foul: Best if luck to the Fairfield Eagles...bring home the title.

[zebrablue2]

Congrats to Coach Allen and the Pirates on a successful season, GREAT year TEAM! Best of luck to the Eagles next week in the big D!!!

This young man claims to be a Fairfield senior and I complimented him on what was a pretty classy first post on another thread. However, I think immaturity, youthful exuberance, and misdirected team pride may have gotten the best of him a couple of times in this game thread.

[SintonFan]

Congratulations Fairfield! You guys are frikkin' awesome. I will be rooting for you next week. :)
To my Sinton Pirates: You young men had an incredible season! So much more to keep your heads up high than to hang it low! Yall had a crazy good season!!! I wish the best of luck to the seniors. :) Congratulations on representing Region 4 in the STATE SEMIFINAL! WOW! What a great season!!!!! :2thumbsup :clap: :clap:
(can't say how good it was enough)

[Corn Cob]

This one won't be close. Fairfield wins in a blowout.


Looks like another one of these know-it-alls that is so proud of his team he does not list where he is from

56-13

Looks like I knew more than you thought I did.

[Corn Cob]

This one won't be close. Fairfield wins in a blowout.


Yep. Just one of those weak D30 teams that just got lucky and made it to the semi-finals. Sinton should throw in the towel now. Give us a break.

56-13

Maybe I knew a little more than you thought I did.

[Corn Cob]

My bad.....
56-6

[SintonFan_inAustin]

56-13 was the final.

Speed with very good tackling made it difficult to get positive yardage. Was impress by the qb play by Fairfield even the backup was hard to pkup who had the ball. Good luck next week and great season Pirates.
