Barbers Hills Homecoming vs. Diboll

[bhratbrat]

Well this coming up week the Eagles will face nearly a tough task. This will be one of there biggest opponents this year against Diboll. I'm only going to have two predictions for this.

Prediction #1: Barbers Hill wins but it will be a barn burner

Prediction #2: Get in the stands early because if you show up late..don't plan on getting a seat up there in the stands

[pixie06]

yeah if you dont get there by 6:30 at least you won't get a good seat it be on the fence!

[Hupernikomen]

and let me add unless you enjoy watching future cheerleaders and eagles walk past, around, over, and everywhere all night you should sit up high in the stands. I have never seen so many little ones at a football game in my life. They were everywhere and they were having a blast.

[RBARKER]

Well I got season tickets so my seats will be safe:D This is going to be a good game between two great teams. Diboll will have a long bus ride to the game and when they enter Eagle Stadium they will see what BH fans are all about. Before last week I would have given Diboll a 7 point advantage, but these Eagles are playing so well right now it will take a freight train to knock them off of their game. I'll predict a close one till half time then the Eagles will come out and Roll. BH 35 Diboll 21.

[BHtheHILL]

The lumberjacks got beat by a good Carthage team last week and will be out for revenge but the Hill boys will be to much to reckon with.
BH 31
Diboll 14

[OldEagle73]

well barbers hill boys did a great job heck of a game guys but now dibol this is going to be a really tough challenage for us but i know that the eagles will be on top i say 27/14 barbers hill, o yeah has any of our challenges scored againest us let me know

[Gobbla2001]

I'll be there at 5...

Okay, not really...

Should be a good game...

[Old Cardinal]

To RBARKER: I am very impressed with Barbers Hill this year. I would have picked Diboll at the first of the year, but at this point Diboll will only be a bump in the road for the Eagles. Everyone on the Eagles team will get to play this weekend.

[eagle08]

Yes, I hope the Eagles win, but I'm sure not as confident as most of you on this thread. If the Hill plays a mistake free game then the Hill should come away with the victory. Yet this is a good Diboll team and after losing last week they are going to be extra fired up. Why are most of ya'll predicting such a big win for the Hill?

[BIGHANK]

thats what i want to know

[mistanice]

Should be a good game.... Although I do not think it will be easy for either teams. What kind of stand-out players does BH have? Diboll does have a good reciever in Finley, but he's not the only major threat, watch out for the unknowns. Defense needs some work, offense is looking great....at times.. but still need to work on qb situation.

Diboll played Carthage good for the 1st half alone. They Led 28-21, at the half....did not score the 2nd half. They were 1st and goal at 5 yd line, but penalties kept them out of the endzone to go up 2 td's. Carthage's main threat was their RB Beechum, who will more than likely have 1,000 yards in 5 games. He's at around 750 in 3, watch out for him. Ran for 250, with broken collar bone.

If BH has a RB that could have that kind of production it will be a close game.

Hopefully Diboll will go work out some of their problems this week, to be prepared for a good BH team.

btw....bighank = seth?

[BIGHANK]

I believe if we can get the kinks ironed out then we will prevail in this contest but good luck to both teams and may the best one win

[RBARKER]

For the Diboll fans I will give you a little info on the Eagles. The Eagles are lead by a junior QB in his second year that can pass the ball as well as run it. He is backed up by two talented RB's and a FB that hit the hole hard and gain good yardage. The Offensive line has been winning the battle in the trenches opening up holes and protecting the QB they are of average size but very strong and well coached. The Defense this year has been unbelievalbe holding Anahuac to 26 yards total offense in game one. Anahuac then went on to score 29 on #1 2A Newton in route to an upset. 4A vidor is the only team to score on this Defense thus far scoring 19 points. BH has two shutouts out of three games so far averaging 35 points a game on offense ond only allowing 6 points per game. This will be a good game don't get me wrong both of these team will do well this year , but the Eagles are playing great ball right now and havn't been beat at home since 1998.

[Eagles52]

I also think that this will be a much closer game than is apparently being predicted by some of our fans, Diboll may have lost last week but they are a tough team that will win if we do not come out and play our best game. And the last home loss for the Eagles was to Dickinson in 2002. I think 1998 may have been the last time we lost a district game at home...(maybe?)

[Hupernikomen]

This will be a good game. Diboll has plenty of athletes to compete with BH. I don't think BH has any answer for Finley, but I don't know if Diboll can get the ball to him as easily as they did last year. Haven't seen Diboll play this year to know what they have on the line of scrimmage, but I guess it is terse but true...this game will be won at the line of scrimmage.

[mistanice]

I'm almost certain that Diboll lost 1 o-line starter and 2 DE's last year, every1 else on the both lines are back this year.

Finley has 10 catches in 2 games, 7 coming last week vs carthage. The Qb has thrown for over 400 yards, and rushing, the starting RB has rushed for 300 yards on 21 carries in 2 games. I'm hoping to make the drive to the Hill.

Diboll will be playing in a 2nd homecoming game, last week was Carthage's.

[HoHoHo]

I don't think Barbers Hill can contain Diboll's offense. They have played well on defense but they haven't seen anything like what they are going to see friday night. To much speed at running back and to much speed by the receivers. Diboll 30, Barbers Hill 17. Take it to the bank!

[eagle08]

When it comes to matching up with speed, I don't think the Hill will have a problem there. As for matching up with Finley, well, I'll just say that by the end of the game he will know he came to play a strong, well coached football team. May the best team win. Both teams better bring their A game.

Ops your right 98 was the last District game that we lost at home. The outcome of this game will be all about the Defense IMHO. Both Offenses are strong and will gain some yardage, But I think BH will have the stronger defense. If BH can score 21 points I think they will come out with the win. Also you throw in the discipline factor. The Eagles are a very discipline bunch in three games the Eagles have a total of 5 fumbles and 9 penalties while Diboll in just one game against Splendora had 5 fumbles and 12 penalties. If Diboll has a game like that against the Eagles it will be lights out.

[OldEagle73]

i agree with u there RBARKER but i will be there to watch all of this one, i cant remeber the last time barbers hill lost a homcoming game, and i dont think we plan on losing this one.

[BlackSmith]

Barber Hills hasnt faced D1 talent like this since Reggie White of Liberty who ran at will against BH. This group of BH players has never faced this kind of speed. The only way BH wins is if Diboll beats itself.

[eagle08]

Whatever Blacksmith! Move back to Liberty.

[Hupernikomen]

Will be nice to have a comparison of BH and those 3A teams that Diboll has played and their opponents have played. Won't mean much but might tell us some things about East Texas 3A versus Houston Area 3A at this point.

Easy to say BlackSmith but how did you come up with such a statement. Have you seen something I haven't?

Ok here is some comparisons

Barbers Hill

Beat Anahuac 38-0. Anahuac beat #1 2A Newton 29-28. Anahuac did not play in week two so they are 1-1, Newton is also 1-1

Beat 4A Vidor 35-19. Vidor Beat Houston Scarborough 41-0. VIdor did not play week zero so they are 1-1, Hou Scar is 0-2

Beat 4A Dickinson 31-0. Dickinson beat Houston St.pius 27-16. Dickinson is 1-1. Houston St.pius is 1-1


Diboll

Beat Splendora 53-21. Splendora lost to Hardin Jefferson & Cold springs. Splendora is 0-3. Hardin Jefferson is 1-1 & Coldsprings is 1-2.

Lost to Carthage 35-28. Carthage lost to 4A Henderson 40-37 & Palestine 42-31. Carthage is 1-2 Henderson is 2-1 & Palestine is 3-0

I don't know what this tells us . but its something to read:D

[hsfootballrules]

By the way did you know bh beat Liberty one year with Reggie White and then his senior year he did nothing that other nfl player they had Tony Bua did everything.........By the way how far did that team go with all those NFL players o yea not very far pretty sad you had two NFL players and didnt get passed the 2nd round

[Old No. 7]

BH in a close one.

[mojj0_1]

This week we find out how good these teams are. The difference could be Finley. Diboll by 7

[Eagles52]

FINALLY...the other team has support on here, even Anahuac was humble and complimentary in week 0 (unusual for them to say the least) and our next two games were 2 different 4a teams which don't seem to visit this 3a site too often lol. Its good to hear some competitive spirit going both ways...I hope Diboll has a safe trip over and we have a great night of injury free High School football

[BlueBlood]

Gotta go with the Eagles in this one. I don't think we have more talent than Diboll but I have crossed my fingers really tight. Go Eagles.

[hsfootballrules]

[BIGHANK]

what does that mean?

i was just giving u what people think

[RBARKER]

TTT

[BIGHANK]

what?

[shellman54]

it means to the top, so the post won't be forgotten in the depths of all the other posts

[BIGHANK]

Big NeDiboll vs. Barbers hills isn't going to be anything but a practice to Diboll. Barbers Hills has a good team but Diboll Just has too many weapons. If you think Diboll isn't going to come to play then put your money where ya mouth is. You Get Your Bone Crushed Playa Thinkin' Diboll Every Scared.....

The talk is fun but Friday will tell the tale.

[BlueBlood]

WE GIVE, WE GIVE. Just don't hurt us. The Hill, it appears, is nothing but meat for all the big boys in this state.

[EAGLETOWN]

Finally!!

The Eagletown hass come back to the down low!

WOW!!!

That was kinda fun.

I've set back and watched you goons pick on the town the only town EAGLETOWN long enough!

Diboll is a scoring machine.

They are racking up the points Offensively.

But, they are giving them up Defensively.

The EAGLES are a little more diciplined when it comes to fumble/penatilies.

Our Defense has not been giving up many points and the Offense has been putting them up.

Not against great teams like the HOLY WOS but competative teams.

They did beat a more seasoned Vidor team from this year that barely lost to WOS last year and had a lot of them returners from the team that barely lost to the HOLY WOS last year.

I think our Defense over their Defense will be the deciding factor.

I don't see Diboll slowing our Offense they have'nt slowed no ones yet.

I goin with, yep you guessed it, the EAGLES, my EAGLES on this.

:D EAGLES 28

:( Diboll 14

We can't be denied, we won't be denied.

I'm going to throw this in just cause.

:thinking: If I recall years ago a former EAGLE coach is who got WOS on the football map.

I'll see all you Dibollies Friday in Da EAGLETOWN!!

Oh yeah tell them COPS of yours to lighten up a little bit on them speed traps.

My God!!

The timber industry does not bring in enough revenue for yall.

[duckbutter]

Finley will win the game late....Diboll by 6

I don't know what this tells us . but its something to read:D

Doesn't tell me anything because there are no common opponents or even opponents of opponents...but as I said after this game we have a link of the gulf coast 3A scene to the east texas 3A crop.

[mistanice]

Diboll's Defense does need to step it up this week. Like RB said, they gave up 21 to Splendora and 35 to Carthage. I also think that noboday has been able to completely shut down carthages running game. Unless someone is able to put their back Beechum on check, they will keep scoring in the 30's or more like they did vs 3-0 Palestine and Henderson.

What i'm trying to say is that unless Barber's Hill has a Back like Beechum it will a tough night for them. He, alone, kept carthage in the game.

I do not doubt that BH is a well disciplined team either. They will make few mistakes because they are a well coached team.

[RED454]

Eagletown you are correct about WOS getting on the map by a former Eagle. Hall of Honor Eagle at that.

[bhillfan]

BH has a red head back that will steam roll anyone that gets in his way. I can't wait to watch this game.

[eagle.eyes]

Yes eagletown, you are right. Hell, my dad was a classmate of Coach Hooks at BH. Hooks was a hell of a football player himself!

[RBARKER]

Is it game time yet :D

[EAGLETOWN]

My point with that is some of those move ins in WOS,

that are there due to WOS's football tradition,

that celebrate the great WOS football tradition,

that think WOS is so great,

that say they know tradition but don't,

take it as you will,

might aught,

(AUGHT) is that a word,

maybe only in East Texas,

aught to be thanking BH instead of bashing us.;)

I wanna know when there is going to be a movie about BH football.

They have one about Odessa Permian.

:DWho will play Jabbo anyone have a guess.:D

[eagle.eyes]

Good question....Didn't he throw like 7 td's one game?

[RED454]

HIS RECORDS ARE IN DAVE CAMBELL'S HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL MAGAZINE

[BlueBlood]

He is also a new coach at the Hill.

[EAGLETOWN]

I think he was a kicker, but I will have to ask my Great, Great, Great, Great, awe heck he'd have to ask Methuselah. :D

[RBARKER]

The BH bonfire. Come on I'm ready for game time.

[Eagles52]

how about that practice run for Diboll BigHank...care for some crow perhaps...good game to Diboll you guys played with a lot of class and played hard, never quit, good luck the rest of the year
