Best rival in 4A

[LeonJr]

What is the best rival in 3A?
--This should be pretty good:D

[lobo dad]

Snyder - Sweetwater!!

After last season's quarterfinal final game, that rivalry has been "kicked" up a notch! BAM!!

[3afan]

this is sure to be a homer thread! :cool:

[HighSchool Fan]

whitesboro-pottsboro

battle for last place

[rhs78]

Rice vs Columbus. we really don't like each other.

[99IHSMustang]

Ingleside VS Aransas Pass

AKA Ingledinks vs Bay rats

As you can tell we don't like one another... lol

[neck_06]

it hasn't really started yet, but i think that Columbia/Cuero is gonna be a good one, looks like these two could be meeting in the first round for many years to come

Columbia/Wharton is also a good one

[CRHSeagle]

The Battle Of Big Sandy

Decatur vs. Bridgeport

The Battle of 820

Castleberry vs. Lake Worth

[bulldogbark]

Jasper Vs West Orange stark

Moses was our center when this started.

[Black & Gold]

I am also going with the Snyder/Sweetwater rivalry!!!
Better Dead Than Red!!!

[panther power]

The Pecos River Shootout!

Fort Stockton vs. Monahans is always a great game to be at, the atmosphere, the rivalry, the towns, it's all in great fun.

Snyder and Sweetwater has to be one of the top games of the year in any classification....

[pirate4state]

In district: Sinton vs. Mathis
non-district: Sinton vs. Taft (well for them anyway...)

[Old Tiger]

Rockdale vs. Cameron
Rockdale vs. Taylor
Rockdale vs. Hutto(Considered a new one)

[blaster]

Battle of Big Sandy
Bridgeport vs Decatur

[Fish's mom]

Definitely Ingleside and Aransas.
With a 6-7 mile radius separating those schools, what else could you expect. Only in sports though because my kids have lots of friends from Aransas still.

Kennedale vs. Everman

Even though Everman has moved up to 4A they still play, and it's always good!

[nutcrackin]

Gilmer vs. Tatum

[Rainman]

Sweetwater and Snyder, hands down

[crabman]

Cuero - Yoakum is a good one because both teams stand an equal chance of winning. In any 10 year period it will be 5-5 or 6-4. Never lopsided.
That is why Sinton Taft could never be considered a rivalry. Sinton always wins.

I don't know about Snyder-Sweetwater but I have a friend from Sweetwater and his disdain for Snyder and Abilene Wylie is way greater than anything we have around here. Yoakum and Gonzales included.

[shellman54]

Barbers Hill vs Hamshire Fannett - used to be a big game every year in the 80's and 90's. wish they still played.

Barbers Hill vs Huffman - always was the game I looked forward to every year

Barbers Hill vs Liberty - enough said.

Ya, still remember when SLC beat us in '93....we shoulda won that game, but 14-6 in a state final wasn't too bad!:D

Still shoulda won though!

[SnyTigBaseB07]

haha of course all the snyder folks are gonna say Sweetwater, heck i remember back in the eigth grade, our coaches said that if anyone wore red on the day of our Sweetwater games that we'd run 20 laps around the field. And yes they were a few of us that were like nah, bullcrap so they wore red....guess what happened.....they ran!!!

SNYDER~~SWEETWATER '05.............has the potential to be the game of the year for both teams.

[LH Panther Mom]

I don't know if it's the best rivalry in the state, but Wimberley vs Liberty Hill is pretty big...at least on here. Need proof? Search for posts by my "friend" Dagwood. ;) Generally, the only time the Wimberley folks come out of the woodwork, is just before our game.

[FormerBellvilleBrahma]

Austin County Rival. Bellville Brahmas vs the Sealy Tigers

[Highschoolfan78]

Ya this will be another homer post...

but...... IMO

Cuero vs. Gregory Portland .. My parents say it was heated even back when they were in high school in their olden days :D.

Cuero vs. Gonzales of course.. 98 pranksters put dead turkeys eveyrwhere.

Cuero vs. Yoakum in 93 they burned a Y in our field.

Cuero vs. Columbia ehhh maybe to come idk about that one. That all depends on how many times cuero goes DI. That would be the only way to face columbia if I am correct.

I know that Calallen used to not like gettin beat by us. We played them for many years in the 90's , but idont know if you could call that a rivarly.

Would that also mean Sealy was a rivalry? :P... those great battles with them in the 90's.

[Highschoolfan78]

haha all in good fun 44 :D... I joke with my parents all the time about the good ol' 70's

[justlikesports]

Monahans/Fort Stockton is definitely a good one, but now the Monahans/Greenwood game is turning into one heck of a rivalry.

[Blastoderm55]

Sinton vs Mathis has been a good rivalry, but has dwindled in recent years with the talent pool in Mathis getting so watered down. MP haven't got a win since 2000, and with an exception for 2003, all the games since have been horrid blowouts. Hopefully we'll get a better game this year.

Mathis's ugliest rivalry has been with Orange Grove. Heard some pretty nasty stories from my dad and uncles about the stuff that went on in the late 70s and 80s.

[Phantom Stang]

Pound for pound, or should I say, fan for fan, there's not a hotter rivalry in the state, than Sweetwater vs Snyder.

[bmbf_06]

Id say Wharton vs. Cuero...

[mustang04]

SWEETWATER and SNYDER!!!!!!!

only 30 miles apart, both dropped from 4a at the same time i believe, were big district rivals in 4A, and still are in 3A, have faced each other like 70+ times in football...without a doubt the biggest rivalry in the state along w/ Midland Lee vs. Odessa Permian and Abilene High vs. Cooper

Sweetwater and Abilene High used to be a good rivalry back in the day...along w/ Sweetwater and Denison (in the 90's)

BUT!!! NONE will EVER compare to the Sweetwater vs. Snyder rivalry!!!!!!

Snyder Tigers...Black hearts and yellow bellies:D

I don't think too many people liked Stephenville during their run in the 90's. Denison did manage to go 3-1 against S'ville and knocked them out of the playoffs 3 years in a row but was never able to beat La Marque to get a ring!

[SnyTigBaseB07]

well if ya'll are gonna just talk trash about snyder and no one defend it, i think i'll just bring up a little topic i call "Someone missed a field goal that my butt could have made last year to be elminated from the playoffs....."

[Necked]

Columbia biggest rivalry is with Sweeny. It stretches back to 1947, and the current record is 26-26-1. It's been tame lately, but there was a stretch between 1951-55 when no games were played because of fan violence....

[Buckeye80]

Okay since no one has said it in 5 pages:

The Battle of "G" Town

Gilmer vs. Gladewater
Buckeyes vs. Bears
Orange and Black vs. Black and Orange
Tator Town vs. The Antique Capital of East Texas
Upshur County vs. Gregg County
Separated by 14 miles of historic Hwy 271

Hands down the greatest rivalry in the sports universe!
Yes, I'm a homer.

[Pmoney]

Snyder vs. Sweetwater hands down:D

well..if ur gonn go below the belt, then im gonna bring up a topic called "Some team has beaten sweetwater like 26 times...while sweetwater has beat them like 60, and that team is snyder:D "

pretty sweet topic huh

[Pmoney]

ya see why sweetwater and snyder is the biggest rivalry:D we are at each others throats 24/7

It's good to see that this thread attracted some good clean arguing!

besides....one kid cant make the whole team good, you know good and well kendal is better than most ppl in the area at baseball, but wait, what am i saying...this is FOOTBALL season, not baseball

[SnyTigBaseB07]

ya ur right, okay we'll see whos gonna whip who come game time, thats the end of it. SO ya, im calling it now, snyder 28 sweetwater 14

[bullfrog_alumni_02]

in the 90's the kennedale vs alvarado rivalry was really big in the dfw area. inthe last 90's/00's LW vs aledo was pretty big, atleast in LW anyway. that game was always bigger than homecomming by atleast 2.5 fold.

ok we'll see who wins, goodluck to ya:)

[lobo12]

you say u could have made that field goal huh...well why dont u play football too if ur such a great kicker and football player, its a lot harder than you think, thousands of people watching, huge rivalry, semi final birth on the line...you think you could have made that...haha

[SnyTigBaseB07]

ummm actually i did play football right up until i tore my MCL then i was out and picked up baseball, and never went back to football..and dont say i dont know what its like to have a game on the line with one kick ok..i happen to be a kicker, thats the only reason im harpin about that game.

[lobo12]

i doubt a game of that magnitude

[SnyTigBaseB07]

ur right, but come on, if ur truely good at it you cant let nerves get to you. I dunno what was going on in his mind, but it obviously wasnt 100 percent about just making the kick. You learn to tune out booing and w/e. But ya ive never had to clutch kick like that, but ive had stuff close to it.

[lobo12]

im a big believer in one play doesnt lose a game, the loss was not his fault, theres a whole game before that....if the defense would have stopped them one more time if the offense would have scored one more time, you cant blame a game on a single player

[SnyTigBaseB07]

well to an extent, but you also gotta look at he did miss the kick but your right if s'water had shut down snyder earlier then it wouldnt have come down to that.

[lobo12]

he did miss it, but that kick was not the only thing that determined the game, u cant blame a game on one player

[SnyTigBaseB07]

lol i said that it wasnt completely his fault, if sweetwaters D hadnt let snyder score then the kick wouldnt have happened, s'water would be state semifinalist or w/e.

[smustangs]

you want to bring in a torn mcl well i dont know if everyone knows but he had a partially torn acl after the lubbock cooper game and continued to kick and my heart goes out to him i was on the team and thats crap to bring this up on your part

[PHS Wildcats]

It's not the best in the state, aleays heated, Palestine and Jacksonville. Towns are only 25 miles apart. Football game are great and basketball game even better.

[KTJ]

Gainesville - Sanger

15 miles apart on 1-35 and each school hates the other.

[Ranger Mom]

So when IS the Sweetwater/Snyder game?

I've got to make sure and set it up with wildstangs or someone to keep me updated!

just correcting some facts: It's one of the state's older rivalries, dating back to 1925 with 57 previous games and Sweetwater holds a 34-22-1 edge in the all-time series.

[Bubba-Joe]

Please back up your corrections.
my records indicate the following - if you have documentation to correct please include

In the past 53 years there have been 7 seasons that the two rivals have not played, 1972,1973,1974,1975, 1991, 2000 & 2001.

Information for the results of the 1969 season could not be found

while Bubba could have made a mistake - especially dealing with the dark days of Sweetwater football, that being the decade of the 70's
I am confident in the rest of the information posted.

[KL3]

Bellville vs. Sealy has to be up there.

[LeonJr]

How sweet it is!!!!WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[slpybear the bullfan]

Bridgeport vs. Decatur... The Battle of Big Sandy. I will have to go back and dig up my records, but I believe it is 87 or 88 meetings.

Buba u might be right i dont know but this is what i got. we all know Ron Howell can make mistakes.

By Ron Howell/The Reporter Sports Editor
It's one of the state's older rivalries, dating back to 1925 with 56 previous games. But when Sweetwater and Snyder butt heads this Friday at 7:30 p.m. in Big Spring, it will mark only the second time the teams have met in the playoffs.

And until now, the only time the Mustangs and Tigers played in December was on a bas-ketball court.

This is also the first time that the teams have ever met in the quarterfinals, and it's the first time that each came into the matchup with 11 victories al-ready under their belts.

Sweetwater holds a 34-21-1 edge in the all-time series and has already beaten Snyder once this season, 35-25, back on Oct. 15 in a District 4-3A matchup. The Tigers have lost two in a row to the Mustangs since their last victory, a 26-20 double overtime shootout two years ago at Snyder.

Incidentally, this is only the second time Sweetwater and Snyder have played football against each other twice in the same season. The other time came in 1982, when the teams -- due to the closing of Odessa's Ector High School which left a hole in their schedules -- agreed to play two games with only the second one counting as a district contest.

Many of you reading this column no doubt will remember the only other time Sweetwater and Snyder met in the playoffs in 1990. That area-round game was played at Mustang Bowl and attracted a huge crowd that was one of the largest in the stadium's 65-year history.

Realignment prior to the '90 season had placed Sweetwater and Snyder in separate districts for the first time in 17 years, but the rivalry was extended due to the first-ever football playoff between the two schools.

Sweetwater not only had the homefield advantage in 1990, but also a seemingly-huge psy-chological edge over the Tigers. The Mustangs had won the pre-vous 11 matchups, and most by big margins.

But the toughest loss for Snyder had come in the previous season, when Sweetwater pulled out a miraculous last-second 18-13 win by intercepting a pass and scoring a touchdown on the last play.

However, the Tigers got sweet revenge on their tormentors in 1990. Sweetwater took a 3-0 lead in the early going, but failed to score again as Snyder, taking advantage of several critical turnovers, rallied for a 17-3 victory despite not making a first down in the second half.

Throughout the rivalry, one team or the other has run off several wins in a row. Sweetwa-ter lost seven straight to Snyder during the 1970s before winning the next 11. That was fol-lowed by three straight Snyder wins, but Sweetwater then won four straight before losing three consecutive games in 1998, '99 and 2001.

For some reason, the rivalry was shut down for 15 years af-ter the 1937 season. But since it resumed in 1952, the Mustangs and Tigers have faced each other on the field every year with the exception of 1972, 1973, 1991, 2000 and 2001.

As far as we are concerned, there's nothing that compares with Barbers Hill vs. Liberty. The whole town really gets up for that game. Even if you guys go 4A I hope we can schedule ya predistrict.

[rockdale80]

Rockdale vs. Cameron in the Battle of the Bell....51 years this year. Does that qualify as a rivalry?:thinking: :thinking:

[big daddy russ]

Ingleside vs. Aransas Pass is pretty heated. The two high schools are 4.8 miles apart and it's on par or better than any other rivalry I've seen. Of course I've never been a part of the Battle of the Big Sandy, Sweetwater/Snyder, El Campo/Bay City, or Brownwood/Stephenville... but it's every bit as heated as G-P/Calallen even when playoff spots aren't on the line.

Ingleside vs. Aransas Pass is pretty heated. The two high schools are 4.8 miles apart and it's on par or better than any other rivalry I've seen. Of course I've never been a part of the Battle of the Big Sandy, Sweetwater/Snyder, El Campo/Bay City, or Brownwood/Stephenville... but it's every bit as heated as G-P/Calallen even when playoff spots aren't on the line. what was it last year....the attendance?? i think Mustang Stadium seats what....2800 people and there were over 5000 there last year? was pretty crowded, not counting the people parked around the stadium at the fences sittin on their tailgates and whatnot, LOL.

These games have been special to watch. WO-S holds a decided advantage in wons and losses but nearly everyone of these games have terrific storylines. Many of them pitted two highly ranked teams against each other. I don't know that they have played any of the 15 or so games where one of the two wasn't top 10 ranked. WO-S people can fill us in on the details more because they seem to be more stats oriented than the Jasper folks.

a rivalry that has potential is needville / west columbia....the battle for hwy 36, roughly 15 miles apart or so. hopefully needville can build on a good year this year so i can see this potential rivalry develop.

Wylie is becoming a big rivalry for both Sweetwater and Snyder.
There just isnt any where near the history there yet as what Sweetwater and Snyder have with each other.
This rivalry goes back about 75 years or so.
The Wylie rivalry only goes back about 5 or 6.
Wylie and Merkel used to be huge rivals before Wylie started dominating them the last few years. They still hate each other, but Wylie just has bigger fish to fry now and Merkels numbers have just gone down so much the last few years. They really need to be dropped to 2A.

No doubt, we want to beat Wylie just as bad as Snyder, but it just hasnt become nearly as intense, and probably never will.
I dont really understand your thinking on Merkel though.
They are sure having a hard time competing at this level for the last couple of years, and I dont see that changing any time soon.
I wish they could, but I just dont see it happening.
I do think Clyde may have potential though.

I dunno, it seems that Merkels been having a tough time, but maybe this next year they can step it up. If they do continue to have years like this one, then i'd say ya, move em down, it sucks to lose all the time.

As far as I know SNyder & Sweetwater started playing in 1927 it was in Snyder. Here is what I found interesting Sweetwater brought over 1000 fans by train and then walked over a mile to the field. Can you imagine 1000 people walking through town. In the pictue most are in there Sunday clothes. Just thought that was a great story. Snyder won 8-7 or something like that it was a very close game.

I found it in a old newspaper article. They might have played earlier then that. That was as far back as I could trace it. I thought it was great that over 1000 people made the trip knowing they were going to have to walk. It was probally a picnic type atmosphere huh. During the late 20's early 30's they usually played 2 times probally because of travel.

Seems like it goes back a little farther than that, if I remember correctly. I'm not real sure, but I think it goes back to about 1901. I'll have to do some checking. I know I have seen that info within the last year.
