    Default Region I Week 1 GotW: Abilene Wylie Vs. Argyle

    Should be a very interesting game... I'm sure Argyle is loaded and well coached (as always) and are the defending DII state champs. Don't really know any specifics about them except they have a great running back returning. Wylie is interesting. D-line and O-line return nearly intact (one new offensive lineman), outstanding middle linebacker (committed to Baylor), completely new skill players--QB, backs and receivers. Suspect the offense will take a few weeks to gel, defense should be salty from the start.

    No kidding! I think Argyle takes this one by at least a couple of TDs.

    Funny how all the sudden we have the Gilmerites picking Argyle by as many as they want. Maybe because they got beat by them last season? lol

    Wylie by 7 this year, easily.

    Come on, Hollywood. It has nothing to do with last year. I just think Argyle won't have much drop off this year from last. They are well-coached, have the best trainers money can buy, and plenty of horse in the stable. They have a very good program, and, yes, there is respect there, but that doesn't automatically make me think they will win. Argyle has lost how many games over the past 4 years?

    I would like to see Wylie loaded for a good run. Played those guys twice and they got a classy program.

    True dat, aussie. Wylie has a class program, and I would love to see them back in the thick of a state title hunt.

    And it begins.......

    The Eagles lost a ton from last years SC team, no doubt. 30 seniors - 14 starters - 7 of which are now D1 athletes. An awesome group that played in two state championship games. That said, what most are forgetting is that 1/3 of the starters are returning, all with All-District and/or All State recognition and a state championship skin on their wall. Most of the new, "inexperienced" starters played 1/2 or more in almost every game last year as the Eagles had pretty much put most games away by half. The remainder come from a loaded and undefeated JV team. Their are athletes all over the field. They are bigger and I believe stronger than they were last year with a ton of speed on both sides of the ball. The challenge for the staff is putting the right pieces in the right places and pushing new leaders to step up. There will definitely be more mistakes, it comes with youth.
    I expect Abilene Wylie to come into Argyle fired up, and wanting blood. They are a well-coached and always very talented group. It should be a great, early test for both and I don't believe a loss in this game precludes either from making a deep run.

    Last year was 38-0 Argyle @ Wylie. My prediction this year is much closer but same result, Argyle 27-14.

    I have no idea how many they have lost in last 4 years (only a few I'm sure) but I do know they are 1-1 against Wylie in the last two seasons. Either way it goes, I think this is a good matchup for both programs.

    I'm ready for the season to start!!!

    Wylie and Argyle are two of the best programs in 4A---both schools win in nearly every sport. I don't think Argyle has lost too much to lose to Wylie---I think they win by 7-10.
