Give us the scoop.. Spread offense similar to Robinson. Dexter Pratt is their star RB. He's a top 10 recruit for the class of 2009.

Sometimes we throw more than we should. But it has worked so far. I just hope the Rattlers play a hard fought game. I would be on cloud 9 if they beat Liberty Hill, but I will go into that game with the mindset of "surprise me." I am just thrilled that the Rattlers have made it this far. Win or lose next week, these playoffs will be a great experience for next year's team:

Juniors:
Dexter Pratt - 1980 yards rushing, 370 yards receiving
Jacolby Stokes - 1800 yards passing, 500 yards rushing
Brandall Jackson - 710 yards receiving, also plays defense
Gaston Lamascus - 240 yards receiving, seen as the hard-nose player on the team.
Antron Harris - 230 yards receiving, also plays defense
Lino Byrd - Starting left DE - 4 sacks, 54 tackles

Sophomores:
Kye Hildreth - backup QB, starting free safety - 4 Ints.
Thomas Sweed - 250 yards receiving, 2 Ints. at starting corner
Aleon Calhoun - left tackle, 6'7" 330

Obviously defense has been the achilles heel all year long, but when they play with the level of intensity that they did in the second half (Jasper had 30 yards rushing), they make a good compliment to the offense. I will be there to support the Rattlers Friday, I hope we show up 5000 strong like we did against Jasper! Go Rattlers!

I respect your prediction, but it doesn't seem like you are giving any respect to the Navasota Rattlers. Wonder if you would be predicting a blow out if Needville was still playing? I understand you trying to get back at D23, but predictions are best made with a cool head and not your emotions.

LOL...."get back at D23"...no...I just think you BELLVILLE fans that have all of the sudden become Navasota's #1 homers are entertaining. The Navasota fans are a class act. They don't run their mouths or talk trash, they let their team do the talking....I find myself wondering why you people from Bellville feel you need to chime in everytime someone picks against Navasota or says anything about them that ya'll deem a "lack of respect" towards them. Yeah..I said they were gonna get beat last night..they were down by THREE SCORES!! They bounced back w/ one of the greatest comebacks I've seen in awhile! Highly unlikely, but they pulled it off. Anyway...my point is who elected you people as the voice of Navasota? Personally if I was a Navasota poster, I'd have words for you Bellville people...something along the lines of..."shut you trap...you make us look bad" or "thanks but, we don't need you attacking everyone that doesn't have "nav" something in their user name, we'll be just fine w/out your input" but thats just me. About this coming week's game...realistically I think Navasota will hang tougher then most think...but I don't think they will have what it takes to beat LH. That is my honest prediction. Giddings will be at home, and we've yet to see how the Caldwell game turns out.

Game of the Week, huh? Personally, I would have chose the WOS-La Vega game. I hope this doesn't turn out to be the game of the week, but with the way we're putting it on the ground, we're as vulnerable as ever. Thankfully our D has really stepped it up. Looking forward to Friday.

our defense is sick :devil:

much better than last year.

LH rolls, there is going to be alot of "conditioning" on the hill this week because of all the fumbles, do not expect to many more from the backfield come friday night

Super_R
11-24-2007, 03:37 PM
Lets face it, Nastysoda doesn't really stand a chance.

The Panther D got a good work out yesterday having to stay on the field virtually all of the 3 quarter. They are obviously a well conditioned group of strikers.

The Panther O only played 3 quarters and put 41 on the board.


The Rattlers faced Caldwell about 4 weeks ago and gave up 44 points. For those that don't know Caldwell runs the slot-t

The Rattlers bring in the 55th ranked Defense and their task is to try and stop the 2nd ranked Offense. That's like trying to get water out of a rock. I don't see it happening.

Congrats on a good season Navasota. How good are you guys at basketball?

Come on with the come on!

giving 44 up to a slot T that isnt quite the same caliber just yet as ours is not a good sign.


but then again, its more practice because of seeing giddings bone and caldwells slot t once already this year.


nevertheless, 22 wins in a row will come friday night in temple!

Navasota is 9-3. LH is 11-0.

You would have to go back to the 05' season to find LH's 3rd loss.

Navasta's 3 losses came from Caldwell, Giddings, and Madisonville. The only thing LH has lost in recent memory is the coinflip.

It's the Playoffs and anything can happen. But, what should happen usually does. And LH should handle the Rattlers'.

The Rattlers have 2 playoff wins in the past 5 seasons. The Cats have 17 w's.

The Rattlers are out matched in virtually every aspect of the game.

Here we go again. Everyone putting in their sense that's not even worth a nickle. Navasota does have their work cut out playing the Panthers. We know that, Liberty Hill knows that, heck the entire 3A Downlow Nation knows that. We don't need anyone to throw it in the Rattlers' faces. All year long, it has been constant negatism toward Navasota and the Rattlers. Well, we are 9-3 now. And, while your team is at home trying to play the game of basketball, we are still here in the playoffs. When we do take the court in basketball, we will be strong there too. As I have stated all year long, I don't come here to bash any team, their town, fans, coaches, etc... But, at some point you people need to get a life. LH is a great team. Probably the best team that Navasota has faced since playing La Marque in the 1996 playoffs. LH and Navasota will have their opportunities to proove themselves on the field. So, no matter what is said on here, the game will be decided on the field, period! As I recall, Navasota wasn't suppose to have made the playoffs coming from district 23. Let me refresh your memories, it was 1. Giddings, 2. Bellville, and last but not least, 3. Caldwell. Then, the Rattlers had to 'proove' themselves by beating Bellville. Mission accomplished. Then there was the Giddings game. Well, the Rattlers didn't win that game, but the game was close. Giddings 21, Navasota 14. I guess we opened some eyes by keeping the game close. Caldwell ran the slot T offense right at the Rattlers. That was a great learning experience for the young Rattlers. The final playoff spot came down to Navasota and La Grange. Well, we all know the ending to that. Playoffs now, Navasota has never been picked to win. But hey, we blew Needville of the field 41-20. The Jasper game was a little closer than what we thought. But, it took that defense from Navasota until the 2nd half to get it together. Better late than never you can say. Everyone know that LH was looking foward to a matchup with Giddings. The same Giddings team that they beat the year before by 7 and the same one that beat the Rattlers by 7 this season. Yes, I will be the first to admit that the Rattlers defense doesn't always play up to the level that they are capable of playing. But, what matters is, they are capable of doing so. I am not going to be silly and predict some wild score. I do know that the Rattlers can play with the best of them when they put it in their minds that they can win. LH has some challenges too. This Rattler team will probably be the most athletic, fastest, most explosive offensive team that the Panthers have faced this year. But, I guess that doesn't matter since the Rattlers are predicted to lose by 28, 35, etc. And oh, I know some of you will argue that have played that team already in Cuero. This game will be closer than most you you 'want to be' high school football experts believe. But hey, what do I know? Good luck to LH and Navasota.

PS, I think some of you could learn a thing or two from LH Panther Mom. Eventhough she nows that her team will win, she doesn't make silly comments and dismiss the other team. The game is played on the field. Expect the unexpected, a la Gilmer, 2006.

I seem to recall for the past 2 weeks EVERYONE from D23 calling for sweeps, and pretty much "dismissing" teams. Isn't very pleasant when you're on the opposite side of it is it? Most people don't like their own medicine. (I'm not singling you out or even talking to you directly HEMO...you're alright in my book. I'm just talking about the overall mentality of many of the D23 posters around here in the previous 2 weeks up until now w/ their "we can't be beat, toughest district in the state mentality refusing to give anyone else any respect.) With that said...yes...the Rattlers have their work cut out for them. Is getting a win over LH impossible? No..nothing is impossible. On the other hand, I will be very surprised if they DO get the win. If they do, I will be the first to congratulate them.

Thank you Hemotoxic, well put. Folks, I guarantee you won't hear any of us on this board saying that Navasota will win. We know that the Rattlers are facing the #1 team in the state. It will be the second time they have faced a #1 this year. But I will not dismiss the Rattlers in any game. I made that mistake at halftime last night. It was cold and after the clock mismanagement at the end of the first half, I was ready to beat the traffic. But I said that "hell, they came back against Caldwell and if not for a trick play on 3rd and 12, they could have easily tied and maybe won that game." One if these days, the Rattlers will put together 4 quarters of their intensity. That game may be next week. It may be next year. But it will come. And when it does, they will be capable of beating certainly any 3A team in this state. Nobody is invincible. Liberty Hill is close to invincible, and it takes winning a turnover battle by 2+ and scoring on every possession, or even making a few defensive stops if you get lucky. But any team can fall. THAT IS WHY THEY PLAY THE GAME. Good luck to both teams in this one. I am a big fan of the Liberty Hill Panthers. I love their offense, and I love their class and dignity. They deserve to be where they are, and they deserve to be the favorite by many, many points in any game they play. And they didn't get to that point by dismissing and disrespecting teams like the Hippos, Tigers, Yoemen, Ducks, Rockets, Bulldogs or Rattlers.

Should we start a LH/NAV meet and greet thread? I would love to meet some people from the downlow for a change!

I am just giving you guys a hard time just because you are the next obsticle in the way. It is nothing personal. You did nothing wrong. Turn the emo music off and put down the bottle of Nyquil. I don't hate you or Navasota.

No need to. It was just an opinion that was part of a larger essay. But I would feel complimented if I were a LH fan to know that my team was beating a better team each week. They deserve to be the defending state champions, and they know that they have to continue earning their place if they want to be known as the back to back defending state champions.

Dude or mam, I wasn't referring to you in general. But since you thought that I was talking to you, maybe my post was intended for you. I am not about to start a battle with you or with anyone else on this site. I am here to show my support for the love of Texas High School Football and for the Navasota Rattlers. Nowhere did I mention anything about hate. If I did, please show me.

Go Luck to both teams.

I knew that D23 wasn't going to sweep this week. However, I did think that Caldwell would win based on what I have seen from the Hornets in two games this season. Not everyone had the same opinion about D23 being the best district in the state. I atleast thought that the D23 was great. When the playoffs started, I showed support for D23 teams just as others have for their district foes. But, I do know that you are a true fan of High School sports and that you just love to see great football. I like that. Good luck to all the remaining teams who are still playing.

Go Snakes!

Pratt is not Navasota's entire offense. We have been around 200 yards running and passing per game. It will be difficult for the Rattlers not being able to mix up their offense. Jasper has probably defended Pratt the best all year. I think he had 112 yards rushing but the offense picked up the slack with 273 yards passing and 413 yards total.

They just might be the key to making this a good game. Maybe Jacolby will watch film and figure out that when the protection breaks down, it is time to give the fans in the stands a souvenir:D Not take the sack.:(

Any way it goes, 5000 more fans will make the trip up 190. Be coming right through Cameron if we want to pick up anybody on the bandwagon:D :D LOL

Navasota fans really got on my nerves Friday. In the game against Needville, they stood alot more, chanted alot more, etc.. When the team got down early against Jasper, they were silent and just sat there doing nothing. Why don't they know that when the team is losing, they can play a part in getting their spirits up?...Instead, they just sit and wait quitely. We need to be more vocal and show a little more spirit and stop acting like we are in Sunday church services. Now, of course I am not talking about all of them, especially the students, cheerleaders, drill team and the band, its the other 4000 plus that I am referring to.

Well, personally I know that us guys with the shakers, we decided that what we were doing wasn't working, so we did the opposite. Instead of standing, and being loud, we sat and were quiet. If you want the opposite effect, you do the opposite. And it worked.

it is easy... LH is the defending state champs and they are rolling again... Navasota is the upstart team and new to this...
could Navasota win, oh yeah they can... but the better question is will they? and most people will say no... LH will pull away late... to say a team like LH, who won the whole thing last year, has not seen a team as athletic as Navasota is absolutely absurd... you do not go deep into the playoffs year after year and not see athletic teams... to say that Navasota has not seen a team like LH is closer to the truth...

close game like I said until late when LH will tack on a few... 38-21 LH...

great run for Navasota and it could continue... that way the other people from D23 can continue to say how great their district is

They don't run their mouths or talk trash, they let their team do the talking....I find myself wondering why you people from Bellville feel you need to chime in everytime someone picks against Navasota or says anything about them that ya'll deem a "lack of respect" towards them. Yeah..I said they were gonna get beat last night..they were down by THREE SCORES!! They bounced back w/ one of the greatest comebacks I've seen in awhile! Highly unlikely, but they pulled it off. Anyway...my point is who elected you people as the voice of Navasota? Personally if I was a Navasota poster, I'd have words for you Bellville people...something along the lines of..."shut you trap...you make us look bad" or "thanks but, we don't need you attacking everyone that doesn't have "nav" something in their user name, we'll be just fine w/out your input" but thats just me. About this coming week's game...realistically I think Navasota will hang tougher then most think...but I don't think they will have what it takes to beat LH. That is my honest prediction. Giddings will be at home, and we've yet to see how the Caldwell game turns out.


In all honesty IHStang, I think that they are pretty much just fed up with YOU. I have read your and their post. If you are not out right dogging D23, then you are trying to get digs in on these bellville guys. They started all of this a LONG time ago before you got in the loop by discussing the two districts with their rival sealy. They didn't mean to take it any further than that, then you came along. Just throwing my oppinion out there, not from d24 or bellville.

As talented as navasota is, I don't think that their defense is disciplined enough to take this game against a well disciplined and well oiled machine LH offense. in order for navasota to have success in this game, PRATT will have to take over the game and keep LH offense off the field. Further note to that last sentence, he will have to finish each time consuming drive with a TD or LH will slowly pull away.

This is what I THINK navasota has to do to win, but think LH takes this one by 14.

You know, its not like Navasota is David and we're playing the Goliath; or Navasota is the tourtoise and we're racing the hare; or maybe it is, and we all know how those stories end. I'm not saying Liberty Hill players, fans, coaches, or even posters see themselves as the Goliath or the hare, but a lot of others do. Of course, we all know that Liberty Hill is tough, that's a given, but if anyone thinks even for a second that Navasota doen't have a shot, or they are going to get the score ran-up on them, they are DEAD wrong!!! How many realistically thought App State had a chance against Michigan, that Boise State had a chance against Oklahoma, or even Arkansas against #01 LSU? Not many. In fact, maybe none.

I'm not saying that Liberty Hill sees Navsota as the bug that they are going to squash, but I'm saying that Navasota is going to go into Temple Friday and suprise a few folks.

Never ever count another team out, because the situation seems hopeless. Otherwise, we wouldn't have App State's, Illinois's, or even Arkansas's.

Maybe the Rattlers are out-manned, out-evrythinged, but they are not out-spirited by no one.

Hopefully the D can make some adjustments this week. Hey, whatever they were doing in the second half last week was working great, maybe they can find another great adjustment, and our O will need to sustain long methodical drives to keep our defesne off the field.

First, I want to say that the Navasota posters are a classy group. They proved that this past week.

Second, I just want to point out how lightly Caldwell (posters at least) regarded little old Kirbyville. One poster even went so far as to post a poll about who would be in the QF against mighty Caldwell. Well we know how that turned out, Kirbyville took Caldwell to the woodshed, 49-24.

I don't know if playing a perfect game will be enought to beat the Panthers.

There have been teams that are as prepared as they can possibley be and it wasn't enought. There are just times that you face an opponent that are too much to handle. The Panthers played Jasper in 04' and LH were as ready as they could be...they were just out matched. It happens every week when the better team wins despite a hard fought and courageous effort by the weaker team.

Navasota is the weaker team. LH will be ready.

I am pulling for both teams as I feel I have friends on both sides, but I don't know about these labels being thrown around.

Maybe Navasota is "weaker" than LH, I surely don't know. But I guarantee you though that Navasota is not "weak". You can take that to the bank. :) The Jasper team that Navasota just beat was very possibly AT LEAST AS GOOD as the 04 Jasper team just referred to, perhaps a little better, especially on offense.

It will be interesting to see how this all plays out. Just wish you were playing the game in Huntsville. :D

I'll be honest, after seeing Fitzhenry, Canto, and Whaley, I didn't think Navsota would face anyone more athletic, but I take that back now...That Bailey guy sure is something.

The question now is, how good are you at reading between the lines. :confused:

Jasper finished 3rd in their district...finished the season 7-5 (Ranked 47th). They are an average team. Needville finished 3rd in their district...finished the season 8-3 (Ranked 35th).

You beat the teams in your way. Those teams were just average. If you had an average team in your way this week you would have another fighting chance.

But, lets face it...The only thing average about LH is the weather.

I think Navasota is a prime example of playing 4 full quarters and never giving up, with what they did against Jasper. Whether or not that will be enough this week, we'll know around 10:30 Friday night. :thinking: :thinking:

Aug 31...Waco Connally, W 33-13
Sep 07...@ Burnet, W 34-17

Nov 02...Taylor*, W 52-7
Nov 09...@ Cameron Yoe*, W 63-14

Liberty Hill 37, Rockdale 25. A game that was played in Liberty Hill. No, I am not comparing Navasota to Rockdale. Am I saying that because of this one game Navasota can win? No. This is just to show that anything can happen. This reminds me of a team from the same area by the name of Burnet. This was some years back. All the talk was how Burnet would not only beat the competition but slaughter them. In fact, they did just that until they ran into the Jasper Bulldogs. Bunet would go on to beat the Bulldogs by 7. However, in the finale, Gainesville stunned Burnet 35-24. Anything can happen! That is why the game is actually played on the field. As a Rattler fan, we are excited to be playing against the defending state champions.. Am I at all surprised by the success by the Rattlers? No. All year long I have been stating that the Navosota Rattlers don't have any idea exactly how good they can be. They are young. So, naturally they will make mistakes. Hopefully, the Rattlers will come out and play the best football of yet.

Good Luck to Both Teams.

Go Snakes!

Actually, to tell you from a sort of players stand point, having played with these guys all through little league football and my sophomore year, I can personally tell you that we looked forward to this year to be the year Navasota climbed back to the top. We've known (me and my classmates that play football currently and used to play football) for a while that once we reach this point, where the '08, '09, and '10 classes were together on Varsity, that we'd be a very good team. We've known that since the Navasota Bills wayyyyy back in 2001.

Well, I was speaking in terms of 'believing' that you are good. Believing and thinking that you are good are different. Not trying to discredit what you have to say at all. However, once a team believes in themselves and begins to believe that they can win, the wins will begin to happen. Often, as athletes, you hear about how good a team may be or how good a particular player is. Well, once you get out there on that field/court, you finally get to see what the hype is all about. Sometimes, some teams already have that confidence in knowing that they will win before taking the field. Nothing less than a win is acceptable for them. On the other hand, it takes some other teams the realization that they are playing against the opposition and that just like them, they are human and have no speacial powers. At that point, the team starts to gain confindence that they can compete against the opposition. Hopefully, the score isn't already 35 to 0 and in the 4th quarter.

I think the Rattlers should watch the movie called "Facing the Giants" so they can see that anything is possible. Liberty Hill is the best team we have played this year by far, and I'm sure they win with intimidation as well as their play on the field. None of that matters now because the Rattlers won't be intimidated, and they will play unlike any team that Liberty Hill has faced all year as well...

The Rattlers will be ready, The Rattlers will play super hard, and The Rattlers will come out on top. Rattlers! Rattlers! Rattlers!

Navasota has come off as confident, if not over confident. And that is purely out of excitement because of a great year for the Rattlers, but can LH fans not be excited to because of defending a state championship and winning 21 games in a row? all the sudden its considered arrogance?? :confused: im confused.

both teams are excited about where their program is right now, both teams are expecting great games, and both teams tthink that they will win. All of these things are not wrong, so lets calm down :clap:

I apologize. I mis-read your response.

But I want to say this. Yes, the Rattlers are proud of their team, as they should be. And LH is proud of its team, as it should be.

But in all the posts by Navasota last week, despite their enthusiasm, not once did I see any posts that suggested Jasper had "No Chance". :)

And yes, come game day, the records of neither of your teams mean anything. The score will start out 0-0. :) Just like in 04 when you played a third place team that had three losses on its record. ;)

There is no doubt that Navasota is a good football team. They wouldn’t still be playing if that was not true. In a way they kinda remind me of my Panthers. They are disciplined, good work ethic, play with heart and never give up. Admirable qualities, it’s what brought them back in the Jasper game. A lot of teams would have thrown in the towel.

With that being said I think the Rattlers have met their match in the Panthers. It all comes down to individual match-ups and I think the Panthers have the edge. From what I have heard and seen Navasota is a stronger offensive team than defensive team. If that is true I don’t see them stopping the Panther run, actually I haven’t seen anybody stop it in 4 years. We have been out scored but not stopped. In addition to that we have a tenacious defense, we swarm to the ball about as good as any 3a team I’ve ever seen.

Any thing can happen that's why we play the game but in my opinion Navasota would have to have a perfect day and some good old fashion luck to beat the Panthers. We are on a 21 game win streak, we plan on making it 22.

Good luck and see ya Friday,

Just a tad bit of difference in this team and the '04 one. ;) Probably the biggest difference is the strength on defense.


I know that the coaches and players are taking Navasota seriously. They don't look past the current opponent. I know they'll have our boys prepared for whatever is thrown at them.

Official rankings don't carry a lot of merrit. And since you "swear, Jasper was twenty times better" then I'll have to start worring.

The Panthers have somewhere near 5000yards rushing this year. Fickel the qb has 9 td passes on about 35 attempts. The Panther O is getting a ton of credit for the Panthers success...the offensive line averages 220 pounds or so and their 40 times average 4.9. So, on defense if you are trying to see where the ball is going you will do more chasing than tackeling.

The Panthers have a wicked quick defense. They are holding opponents to under 14 points per game and under 200 yards of total offense. 2 all-staters and 6 1st team all district players on on that side of the ball.

Wimberley is ALWAYS a quality opponent when they play Liberty Hill. You can go back and check my post from the week we played them, but it was something like "I don't care how down they are, they WILL bring it this week". It's a long-standing rivalry, and not the most good-natured one.

I've seen Wimberley play the past 3 years and believe me when I tell you that their record doesn't matter, what matters is they are still playing and for RattlerDude to say that Navasota is gonna play LH unlike any team LH has faced this year is just funny to me. I'm sure this year EVERY team has played "unlike any team" because they were playing the defending state champions, EVERY team is gonna bring their "A" game!

ok in that sense i agree...I think Navasota is better than Wimberley but not better than Cuero, as much as I want Navasota to win this game, I just don't see it happening...IF, and thats a big if, they play to they're best ability for 4 quarters i think they can do it...

Really?? I'm not saying they don't have a shot, but that shot is very slim IMHO especially after what Caldwell did to them with a shell of an offense that LH runs.

Thanks for wishing ill against us buff. We'll see if it happens this week. My ill will toward you guys happend last week. You going to tomorrows basketball game?



I have no doubt in my mind that navasota will be ready for the game Friday. I also have no doubt that LH will be ready for the same game. So, being ready doesn't get the W for ya. Giving it your all doesn't win it for you either.

LH has tasted blood. They know what it takes to win...and they have proven that 21 times in a row.

I never said Navasota would stop LH, they might slow them down once or twice, but if they can get they're offense going they are dangerous...

I know a lot of people like to use the Caldwell game as a comparison. I know also that Liberty Hill has two hosses in the backfield that run hard and pile up the yardage with the perfection of the offense they run. My question is this: We faced Xavier Canto. I think that as a runner, and I have seen some different video of Liberty Hill this year, Canto is a different style of runner than those two. He bursts off the line, runs low, cuts quick, never lets his feet quit moving, and runs at full speed from snap to whistle. Canto would probably pile up even more yardage as a Panther because of how good he is. I know that Allman is tested and got an A+, and Gonzales is proving he belongs on the honor roll as well. But having seen both teams, albeit one limited on film, I think that there is a difference in the Slot T offense between the two teams. Caldwell is not quite there yet, and Canto really rescues that offense from being average. They are still really good without him, as they didn't have him last year, but he made them much better.

All that is just an observation. It doesn't have to relate to how the Panthers and Rattlers will match up, but I just wanted to make a personal observation about it since a lot of people are comparing Caldwell and Liberty Hill only on the basis of "a" slot T offense being run. It is not meant to take any shots at Navasota, Caldwell, or Liberty Hill, so try not to make it so.:D

Just my personal observations, that's all. I don't think that Caldwell and Liberty Hill match up offenses very well, even though they both run the Slot T. Technique and clock control wise, Cleveland probably matches up better with Liberty Hill as far as the Slot T goes. Only Cleveland doesn't have nearly the talent, speed, or size that LH has. Or the Championship. Or the winning streak. Or the.....ahh forget it.:)

You'll be watching a play happen and not know who has the ball while in Caldwell's offense you know who is getting the ball.
