Well, we did have back to back losses. :( Quality opponents, but still losses on the record.

Besides the Wylie @ Wimberly game this week, are there any other matchups between top 25 teams?
Also, can someone post all these teams next opponent?

Watch out for Wylie! No matter how much Talent they have they always find a way and so does Sandifer.

they sure handled Big Spring alot better than Sweetwater did. Not that comparing scores against common opponents is wise but your comments had no backing at all.

I understand that Gary is getting better at his position and who knows maybe y'all do deserve that spot but did Big Spring have their A&M committed QB against wylie?

They are a very one-dimensional team and if their opponent is able to even contain the run and keep the score close...it's awfully hard for LH to overcome a deficit late in the game. See their past two games for further evidence. Both games they played well...but were unable to get one more score at the end.

MV is not good? They beat La Vernia which gave Cuero a run for their money this past week and obviously cuero is good so how does not make MV any good? Bandera is always good every year doesnt matter what anybody says...and Uvalde is a pretty strong 4a team that should do good this year

your comparing common opponents..which doesn't mean squat..i could go and say well be beat snyder and snyder beat wylie the year they won state...so that makes us automatic state contenders??...no it doesn't...anything can happen on a friday night.....like i said before Hondo beat someone real..and then i'll give yall some props

true i guess some people are impressed by Hondo...but looking at your "victims" list..it seems as though that is equivalent to merkel, c-city, and roscoe...come on..Hondo hasn't beat anybody...but once again...polls don't matter...and the only on that does is the one after Dec. 16th...so we will see once the post season begins

the people that hondo have bet werntjust beat they were beat bad but we will see once the post season begins and if im wrong about hondo then i will appologize but dont expect one from me till they get knocked out early in the playoff ... which probably wont happen

10-03-2006, 10:27 AM

i haven't watched any of these teams...but it seems as though it doesn't matter because they aren't contenders this year........talk about opponents...WF High, Brownwood..2 quality 4A programs, Canyon, quality 3A, and Big Spring..not that great but still a win...

How many teams overcome a go-ahead opponent's score that was made with 1:00-1:30 left in the game to score to win? Yes, I realize it does happen, but seriously....how often?

I agree. However, I think everybody would agree that you are much more likely to score when throwing the ball than running the ball. That is why I think that LH's offense can be an achilles heel for them. You yourself have expressed surprise when they do throw the ball.

LOL! Not sure where you got that because I'm rarely surprised by our offense. I have in fact laughed at some folks who have watched us throw a 50-yd TD pass and they have such shock on their faces. :p I know we can pass, I've said it for years. Sure, our offense is 90% run. That doesn't mean we never pass. The one surprise I have seen in the passing game was that it appeared we forced the pass against Cuero last season, possibly as catch-up offense, possibly to make up for a crucial injured back.

K that's it. I just remember you talking about surprise when your team passed...I forgot that it was others being shocked.

There's a good possibility Cuero goes d2... and whoever compared Cuero's LV game to Medina valley and their LV game or whatever the comparison was, that can't be legit. Cuero came into the game with pre-game injuries, along with more injuries during the game. Yes there were many mistakes and lavernia is a good team. But that's kinda a hard comparison

Pudlugger

10-05-2006, 07:48 AM

Cuero is playing with injuries and so far is managing to win. A championship caliber team must have the depth and determination to win with injuries. Just beating these last two good teams shows that Cuero has what it takes to go 15 games. I do believe they will be DI as Yoakum and either Palacios or Goliad will place in district. Gonzales is down this season.:cool:

10-05-2006, 08:57 PM

Hondo is very good...now as for them killing all of their opponents, that isnt true. When we played Hondo, we drove all the way down to somewhere around their 10 yard line, before a screwy snap...it happens, they got the W, but some of their fans have said that they were lucky in that one. But Hondo is good, they will get some props...not quite Cuero, but they are a solid team. Cuero just has speed, and then some more speed...you can't understand until you play them. Oh, and as for sweetwater...you can run the ball all you want against Cuero, and you will get shut down, just like everybody else has.

10-05-2006, 09:13 PM

well, unless Holsey is at Quarterback...kid can run, he moved to Bandera at the end of Freshman year, anybody from Sweetwater, tell him I said hey...just tell him that its a guy that used to play basketball and football with him, and he watched the SuperBowl with me...he should know. I dont know much about the first string quarterback, but I do know that Holsey is pretty talented.

yeah you will be fine if the starter gets hurt, maybe better. But you still couldnt run the ball against Cuero. Or us. We have some stud DE's like Andy Smith and George Reyes, and some stud Linebackers like Travis Combs, and then some good DTs also. Try and run the ball against that. And we could pass the ball all day against anybody

ohh that and Sweetwater got their 600th win last night against Borger ( which i know doesn't mean much but its a win. ) We are the 11th team in the state of Texas to make the 600 mark. If you ask me that is a pretty big honor that not many high school teams have in texas.

Bandera has the 54th toughest schedule out of 174 teams in 3A (according to the Massey ratings). Wimberley has the 5th toughest schedule, with all of the tough games already played. We beat 3 top 10 teams, and lost to one (Giddings). We hope Bandera makes the play offs, which is almost a sure thing, but they are no competition for Wimberley when the big dance comes around.

thats a VERY bold statement...we haven't had a problem running the ball against anyone this year...much less would big bad bandera shut us down

Cuero got theirs several weeks ago...so we're nothing special brent

i was under the impression that sweetwater had the 1st toughest schedule..is this correct?
