I plan on watching one of your teams in the second round against either Cleveland or Kirbyville. Being a big fan of football from SE Texas I saw both of your teams' stats. It looks like both teams have dominant rushers: Carter (1,664 yds) from Columbus and Canto (1,662 yds) and Sims (869 yds) and Ofczarzak (432 yds) from Caldwell. I'm guessing Wing T offenses with Caldwell running some option? I guess it could be the I or veer. Heck, it may be spread. Sounds like it should be a great game between you two schools.

Slot T? must be a lot of misdirection. Bet they have good speed. How good is Canto?

Cantu didn't look to impressive vs. a good defense in Giddings when I saw him. Yes they do some misdirection stuff.

Caldwell runs this formation a lot:

......... ...B
.....WB . QB . WB
TE .. T G C G T .. TE

I call it a double nasty slot.

A Caldwell is the fastest team from huddle to snap I have ever seen, usually 3-5 sec.

I know one time I looked at the play clock and it said 5 with them still in huddle and I am thinking delay, they snaped the ball at 2.
Last week they were all set for a second:D

That sounds pretty cool! Maybe I'll come watch them this week. They play in Austin huh? Cantu play FB? or slot? Do they throw any?

Sounds dangerous! Giddings is the only team to slow them down? Oh, I just saw the score. Giddings 21 Caldwell 7

Is Giddings that good on defense or was that just a bad game for Caldwell? Or a combination of both? Does Caldwell have a big Oline or undersized and quick?

Did Giddings stick with the 3-3-5 against Caldwell or did they go 6-2 man? I wondered......

Nowhere to run? Or did they move the ball a little, but couldn't score but one TD?

Caldwell was close to scoring a couple of times.

My memory is horrible but I think that Giddings stopped on a goal line stand when Caldwell had 1st and goal. Caldwell also missed a FG before half.

Canto has put up some impressive numbers vs other teams but Giddings held him to less than 80.
