WOW!!! Gilmer scores TD on opening KO!!

[IHStangFan]

HOLY CRAP!!! I guess if you're gonna make a statement....that's a good way to do it!! Can they maintain and keep up w/ LH?

[YamTown]

I guess we'll see!

[runthequarter]

80 yd TD on the opening kickoff. Whoo hoo!

Go Gilmer!

[Gobbla2001]

that's good news for gilmer... they'll be getting the ball kicked off to 'em a few more times to day...

[runthequarter]

LH misses the extra point

7-6 Gilmer

[IHStangFan]

LH starting to move the ball on Gilmer's D...Gilmer still unable to get anything going against LH's D.

[sinton66]

Bet Gilmer punts next time on 4th down.

[IHStangFan]

TD LH 12-7, XP pending...going to 2....

NO GOOD! 12-7 LH over Gilmer w/ 3:24 left in 1st Q.

[IHStangFan]

twice in a row now Gilmer goes for it on 4th down and doesn't get it. LH's D is fired up!

[TexanAlum_06]

LH's defense came to play. Gilmer's coaches are about to lose this game for them, how stupid can you be to go for it in your own territory 2 drives in a row when your playing against a team your prolly not gonna stop much defensively and you give them a short field. stupid.......

Unfamiliarity with the wing-t. Still think they can stop it.

[sinton66]

start of the 2nd quarter. Lh now up 18-7.

[wimbo_pro]

update?

[Aesculus gilmus]

Kudos to the LH offense, but I'd say continuing to go for two from the eight after a 5-yard penalty is not all that smart a call either.

[IHStangFan]

yeah...stupid of Gilmer coaches...this isn't a district game...it's the state title game...not sure if they realize this. I'm fixing to switch over to the Celina/Snyder game perhaps.

[IHStangFan]

[TexanAlum_06]

yeah unless something drastically changes in Gilmers favor, this game is about to get out of hand, I know it early, but they wont be able to stop LH very much if any at all and if they get to far behind they wont be able to catch up......

still 18-7 in the 2nd. LH

[sinton66]

LH finally having to punt. Gilmer gets a stop.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Except they just shut LH down.

Gilmer makes adjustments very well. I wouldn't count them out even if they get several TDs behind.

I wouldn't say they "shut them down" They did get a stop...but they're gettin one stop to every 2nd-3rd LH TD? That isn't gonna get it done and its DEFINATELY not shutting ANYONE down. For now, it appears Gilmer has only put a band-aide on a bullet wound.

OH....just threw a gause pad in there w/ the turnover! :clap: Come on Gilmer keep it close!

[IHStangFan]

oops...scratch that....they continue to bleed uncontrollably

[Aesculus gilmus]

Gonzo just ran about 68 yards to score.

[IHStangFan]

okay....I'm gonna slide over and listen to Snyder/Celina. I don't want to prematurely congratulate LH and tell Gilmer they've had a good season...but that looks like where this is headed.

[sinton66]

If you stop the wing-t three times out of ten, you still lose unless your offense can keep up.

[Global Swarming]

is embarrasing themselves. That quarterback sucks. They need to put someone else in there. Maybe there's a cheerleader that can hang on to the ball. I can't believe Gilmer is undefeated.

[charlesrixey]

what's the score here?

Celina 20, Snyder 7 at the half

[alaskacat]

When is the Celina LH rematch:)

[Aesculus gilmus]

Gilmer has run back a fumble. Ball way down in LH territory. Allman was on the verge of putting it away.

Gilmer at the 12.

[sinton66]

won't be one this year.

[sinton66]

LH stops Gilmer on 4th and 1. Still 25-7 LH.

[Aesculus gilmus]

LH held on downs. Okay, I admit it. It'll take a miracle now.

[charlesrixey]

is the score still 25-7?

[charlesrixey]

never mind, thanks sinton66!

[Old Green]

LH defense is playing their best game.

[TexanAlum_06]

this is an unbiased opinion here, But a couple of questions and thoughts... 1) How in the HELL is Gilmer undefeated? 2) Gilmers QB and RB got way to much hype for this performance 3) LH's secondary I still think is average at best and Gilmers passing attack cannot exploit it? 4) IMO LH will come out, score quickly on their first drive of the 2nd half and run away with this one, my precition 52-21 LH.

[HEMOTOXIC]

As I stated before, LH is playing in a league of their own.

[Aesculus gilmus]

LH is dominating on both sides of the ball. Both teams have a turnover, so that's a wash.

Gilmer has been down at the half before, though, and has been behind in every game in the playoffs at some point, although never by this much.

Still, the coaching staff for Gilmer makes better halftime adjustments than any I've ever seen. It has to be translated into action on the field, though.

Maybe easier saying what needs adjusting than doing it.

Good luck to Gilmer. I was expected a closer game. Maybe they will come out in the second half to make this game a little more competitive.

Boy I tell ya, LH runs the hell outta that Wing T.

[Gobbla2001]

I think it is unfair to ask "why is gilmer undefeated" etc... There is one thing about playing LH that every team in the state will face and that's that you have never faced an offense like it... plus you have to give LH's D some credit, they have played extremely well this year vs. years past...

Honestly I am shocked at the halftime score, though it would be tons closer...

This is just LH doing what they do... nothing negative for Gilmer...

sux for the buckeyes... when LH gets you in a hole like this they don't let up... their offense keeps scoring while taking time off of the clock... Cuero was good enough to have the game tied at 28 at half... but you just can't get an edge on this team... too good

If you'll pardon the pun, LH has us a bit "rattled" right now.

That is one scary-looking snake you've got there, even though the Panthers "defanged" it.

[charlesrixey]

that's why LH has been so good this year

i think their offense is about 96% of last year, but their defense is 130% of last years, or better

[Gobbla2001]

has LH forced a turnover or two yet? that bit us big against them this season.. we were up 28-21 in the 2nd and were driving... they came up with a huge forced fumble and took it to the house... coulda been 35-21... woulda been huge for us in that game... they're good at making things happen... tough as hell to beat...

Lol, Defanged to say the least. They flat out whipped our a@#'s. But, it was a good learning experience for the Rattlers. LH and Gilmer are great teams. I was hoping that I would have been able to make the game. Good luck to both teams!

[Aesculus gilmus]

Actually, from the way I heard it described, Gilmer's fumble wasn't really "forced." Poitier recovered it.

Allman's fumble back to Gilmer sounded as if it WAS forced, though. He was fighting for an extra yard or two, and someone knocked it loose.

[Aesculus gilmus]

25-13. Gilmer recovered onside kick. Lamar Harris catches 35-yard TD pass. Try for two no good.

It may be a game.

[Pudlugger]

Onside kick recovered by Gilmer . Gilmer marches down the field scoring on pass play. 2 point conversion no good. LH 25 Gilmer 13.

[That announcer at KYKX sounds just like Gomer Pyle. Golleeee...surprise, surprise , surprise. That LH Wing T sure is somethin'.]

[TexanAlum_06]

Gilmer will need a couple of turnovers bounce their way and their offense to score every time to come back.

[alaskacat]

Celina 33, Snyder 7
start of 4th quarter

[sinton66]

4:45 to go in 3rd, TD LH!

[sinton66]

Allman right up the middle.

[sinton66]

Extra point kick good. 32-13 LH @ 4:43 left in the 3rd.

[Aesculus gilmus]

LH just committed a pass interference penalty.

Godfrey has just bobbled another snap. This is really hurting the offense. I'm not making excuses, but he had a pretty bad injury to his left hand a few weeks ago.

[g$$]

LH runs a variation of the Wing T: called Slot T. Very hard to stop at this level esp. since you don't see it much anymore. Lots of misdirection & assignment football.

LH is a machine & has it going right now. It all starts up front for them & they do it well.

[sinton66]

LH took over on downs again at about the LH 28. 41 secs left in the 3rd.

[sinton66]

Start of the 4th. LH 32-13 with a first down.

[JR2004]

Glad I didn't head to Waco for this. Time to head out and go watch a good game between Plano and Trinity.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Are you surprised, JR? I confess I am. But we "escaped" from a number of playoff games already.

[sinton66]

LH's OC learned the wing-t from one of the best. He was a RB on Phil Daniher's Wildcat team at Calallen.

[Aesculus gilmus]

I've been listening pretty closely. I don't think Fickel has thrown a pass yet.

[charlesrixey]

Celina beats Snyder 33-7

Final

[sinton66]

They rarely need to.

[sinton66]

Woo HOO just got a plug for 3ADL.

[sinton66]

LH Touchdown!

[Aesculus gilmus]

Gavin just scored. That seals the deal. 38-13.

[sinton66]

kick no good. LH 38-13.

[sinton66]

oops, flag on the kick, retry.

[alaskacat]

Snyder 169 total yards

1st downs Celina 22 Snyder 8

Snyder only had ball 5 minutes of 2nd half

33-7 Celina wins

[sinton66]

not sure what happened, still 38-13. Gilmer with the ball.

[Aesculus gilmus]

LH defense has bottled up Justin Johnson better than anyone has all year long. That was very key to this entire outcome.

[sinton66]

LH holds on downs again with 2:18 left.

[sinton66]

LH kneeling the ball with a 1st and goal at the 3.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Very classy move to go into victory formation.

When I first saw video of LH's "Slot T" I thought it WAS the victory formation.

And for the Panthers, obviously it IS.

Congratulations to Liberty Hill. You guys are just as FOR REAL as everyone has been saying. I don't blame you for being cocky. Your team has cashed every check you've ever written with your keyboards.

[sinton66]

Final 38-13 LH.

Jerry Vance learning it from Bruce Bush didn't hurt things, either. ;)

Thats looks like the only thing Gilmer had tonight.

Just curious..how many times did LH put the ball on the ground today?

They average 3 per game?

Tough night Gilmus...you have an awesome appreciation for the game of Texas High School Football though. Maybe a rematch next year.

I hope everyone made it home safe and is now enjoying the confines of their warm home.

[duckpluck]

Liberty Hill never had to used its wide pitch to Gonzo today. This was a royal butt whopping.
