    Default Man... This is weird.

    I've been in Wylie for 15 years and this is the 1st time we have not won at least one playoff game since I've been here. Just too thin on the lines of scrimmage, too many injuries and very uncharacteristically too many penalties this late in the season (15 of them against Decatur killed us). Paper said the last Bi-District loss was in 2001. Guess it means I can actually go watch some other good playoff games... maybe Lubbock Estacado vs WF Hirshi at ACU Friday night?

    It's such a long drive over to ACU... Yep, it stinks to not still be playing, but it happens occasionally to all teams. That's a heck of a run for Wylie, though. They'll start a new streak next year, no doubt.

    Is that a sure thing? I can't remember their numbers and what the projected cutoff is. I still think they'll be competitive.

    Doesn't seem to bother the Dawgs being small compared to the competition.

    Don't feel too bad. You could have been the preseason number one team in your classification, have plenty of talent, not have to deal with many injuries, go 4-7, and also lose in the first round while getting totally dominated.
