Would have been nice if they could have found a nuetral site, those trips are brutal. This is about the same kind of trip Ab. Wylie had last year we they went to Wimberely.

Yes I would rather do that myself. Playing on a Saturday makes the trip easier than that long haul on a school night. If Marlin survives the trip I think they beat Snyder. Marlin is tough this year.

Could this be another last team with ball wins game????

I know that Marlin is a good 2A program, but if Snyder is anything close to the hype they received during the preseason, they should handle Marlin easily.

[sweetwater07]

i wouldn't expect Marlin's fan count to be near as high as Snyder's....its only 30 minutes or so to Snyder from Sweetwater

It won't be that Easy. Marlin has already played two 3a teams and is one and one. I am not impressed with Snyder this year at all as their normally solid D seems to be porous. I look for Marlin to play them tough and am looking for an upset. Snyder should win but may not.

[MarginalTalent]

It seems like they've taken the 'd' out of
Snyder. Their new city limits signs are going to say Snyer.

That is pretty close...not exact. But Good for Blackie!!!

JK!!! :D

We did need another game and Believe it or Not, I have been talking with Coach Rogers about Snyder being a part of the Sammy Baugh Classic since the begining. I have also worked closely with the family (Coach David Baugh) all along in bringing the Classic together. I wanted Snyder to take a part in it because of the strong ties to the city and school that Sammy had to Snyder. It didn't pan out the first couple of years and when I aproached Coach Rogers after they played in Brownwood last year and he aggreed to play if Marlin would. Coach Malone from Marlin thought it would be great to play in the Classic and agreed to move the game as well.

I know for a fact the Gordon Wood Classic was a special event for the players last year..I am also extremely positive the Sammy Baugh Classic will provide a great atmosphere and a special time for the participants...thats my job and my goal!!!

We will have special presentations to each school, each player will recieve a Classic Lanyard with his name on it and each school will recieve a $500.00 scholarsip to TSTC-West Texas in the name of the "Player of the Game" of each school (redemeable at any TSTC campus!)

And you can see it is also bringing a bunch of us from the Downlow together....

I can't wait!!!

The trip is marlins biggest foe here

That is very true....I t did add to the commute (about 2 hours I seemed to reacall from Brownwood).

I think it is also a very good opportunity to showcase some very good talent from Central Texas. I feel it is being played at a very good time and lots of folks that may have never even HEARD of Marlin, more less watched them, will get the opportunity.

They are a good group. They are not the best of 2a but definetly a top 10 contender. If Snyder was as good as last year I would give the nod that way. But Marlin is a fast solid team and may give Snyder some real issues. And they play solid D as well. If the trip does not wear them out they may pull off a W. I am pulling for them and 2a a lot because Celina has a lot of ties to 2A. 2A is small but talented and can hang with bigger schools. I think that small school 3A and big School 2A are close enough to give real competitive games most of the time.

GO MARLIN BEAT SNYDER... AGAIN!!!:D

[GetRDoneStangs]

There is no doubt that many of the 2A have some great talent...in fact...look at Rosoe in 1A (Friday night Sammy Baugh). In smaller classifications 1 or 2 studs can make a team go a long way...
Roscoe has a BUNCH !!!!!

The lines avereage in the UPPER 200's... and they have SPEED ...DEPTH

I like Roscoe in 1A...they may even compete in 2A or 3A...this year!

[formermbcouns]

Sweetwater's a little too far from Austin for me to make the trip but good luck to the 'Dogs. Play as hard as you did last week against Connally and I think the 'Dogs have a good chance at a win!

[Snyder_TigerFan]

Does Marlin have the same QB as last year? I remember him to be a pretty accurate passer.
