Who's got info. on Wylie vs. Snyder????

[bulldog038]

wylie won 28-17. They had 382 yards of total offense. They started out a little sluggish but came rumbling back in the second half. If you go to gofridaynight.com the article and pictures from the game will be there.

Yes it was a good game. Snyder prety much controled the first 3 and a half quarters and then wylie broke a couple of big plays. but it was like mathew said. Snyder was very banged up after playing the 3rd ranked 4A team in the state. they had all three starting backs injured and did not play friday not including one of the starting offensive linmen and still moved the ball easily on wyile. you could tell the wylie defense was getting discuraged in the 3rd quarter. with exception to a hand full of big runs the wylie offense was not very effective. the score at half was 14-7 Snyder. The fact that Snyder had two of the starting Defensive linmen not playing friday sure helped wylie as well . I believe any pretention that wylie has that they dominated that game would be amusing.. people who were there could easily see Snyder controled the majority of the game. IF the two meet in the play-offs wylie had better hope that Snyder has 4 offensive starters and 3 defensive starters injured again or it could be a shock in November

I don't think there is anybody in Wylie that is saying we "dominataed the game". In fact, after we gave up some key turnovers it looked like we were going to get beat. But give our guys credit they fought back from a 14-0 deficit. The Snyder team played very well. The DAWGS just found a way to make things happen in the second half.

Good luck to the Tigers the rest of the year. They have a hard nosed football team. The Snyder players deserve more support than just a small handful of fans willing to make a little more than a one hour drive to Abilene.

It is true, Wylie definitely had an off game. Snyder looked impressive, carried mostly by their QB. Wylie played bad, I will admit, in fact the first half performance was worse than any practice they've had this season. They did find a way to win though, on one of their worst days, when snyder more than likely had one of their best games. I think it would be safe to say when wylie is on top of their game 4 quarters they would dominate snyder. wylie has too many weapons for snyder to stop. Yes, snyder's QB is good, but he really doesnt have any great supporting players to mix it up. Basically wylie beat snyder on probably what will turn out to be their worst performance of the season. If wylie executed 4 quarters, then u tell me what the outcome would be.

Im sure it looked like Snyder was "carried by thier QB. Like I said ALL 3 Starting backs other than Jones never saw the field. this was compounded by a missing starting LT Tackle. then on the Defensive side of the ball Snyder had 2 of 3 starting D-lineman not even in uniform. Two big plays ( busts ) won wylie the game. Snyders Offensive line dominated for 3 quarters Injuries just became the deciding factor. but maybe the two will meet in the playoffs and both will be healthy next time so you can see all the other weapons you didnt see friday night .

We'd love to see snyder again.

To say that Snyder dominated for 3 and half quarters is an overstatement. Snyder dominated for about a quarter and a half. Wylie scored late in the 2nd quarter to cut the score to 14-7. Snyder only managed a 41yd FG in the 2nd half.
I want to compliment that kicker becuase that kick could have easily cleared 50 yds, at least distance wise. However, Snyder wasnt able to stop Wylie on the ground at all in the 2nd half. Yes, Tommy Felts had the 79 yd (i think) TD run to give us the 21-17 lead. However, the next drive was our starting FB in a one back formation and he took us down the field before Felts punched in from about 8yds out.
There was maybe one drive in the 2nd half that Snyder really contained Wylie on. Other than that, I think that the Wylie offense was vey effective from their 1st TD on.
Snyder did have a VERY good running QB though. The moves that he made reminded me a lot of Carrillo from Sweetwater. He didnt run the option very well though. If he was going to pitch, he ALWAYS turned and made sure to find the back before making the pitch and the back usually got stuffed. That may have been due to them not having some of their backfield. They did have Jones though and, correct me if I am wrong, he is the #1 RB for Snyder.
All in all, it was a good game filled with a lot of turnovers. I think the total was 6 fumbles in all. We will see what happens if they meet up again in the playoffs.
I think Snyder is going to have to work to get out of their district. My prediction for that district is Sweetwater, Merkel, and Lamesa/Snyder (in that order!). It will definitely be a fun district to follow. Good luck to the Tigers!

I didnt see the game, but to me the "who dominated who" is a mute point. A good Snyder team got beat by a better Abilene Wylie team. That seems to sum it all up I think.

[bulldog038]

I couldn't agree more.

[Ram]

There is no doubt who won the game. My point was that snyder controled most of the game even though they had ALL OF THE STARTING 3 RUNNING BACKS OUT.... if felts was out and the FB and a tackle and your big 300 pound tackle as well as your other tackle you may see my point. you saw a Snyder team with second team backs and a JV tackle on offense and second team TNTs on Defense.. but Im sure you dont want to think about beating Snyder under those circumstances but that is what happend. we were really suprised how easy it was to move the ball on wylie with the backs snyder went with.. I doubt the two will meet in the playoffs.. Everman will hand wylie thier heads before snyder can show off the whole arsinal to them , so its a shame in a way..

[Ram]

Oh, addidas.. thanks for the prediction by the way on the district finish.. I will remind you of it at the end of the season..

[Adidas410s]

Feel free to remind me of it. That is why it is called a prediction. It doesnt mean anything. Most likely, that won't even happen but what is the point of making a prediction if you are going to make the obvious logical one. Here is another one for you.
District 6-3A
1. Ballinger
2. Wylie
3. Clyde
What do you think about that? While I dont think that is going to happen, I could make a case that if players get hurt, or the calls go the right way, or Posey has a good night then Ballinger could very well beat Wylie. It is not hard to come up w/ these scenarios. That is why they play the games though. Good luck to Snyder the rest of the way!

Hey RAM...They ought to call you holiday. Why's That? Because you got No Class!! (Stole that line from an old Fat Albert episode). Man...why can't you give credit when credit is due. If Snyder "dominated" Wylie as bad as you say then they would have been up on the Bulldogs after 31/2 quarters by a large margin. Dallas last night had about twice the yards that Houston did after the first half, but I wouldn't call Dallas' perfomance domination. On top of that, I didn't hear one poster from Wylie brag about dominating Snyder. The post right before yours mentioned the game was good and that Wylie came around in the end. Every team has injuries, poor starts, lackluster games, etc...Why not just say good game Wylie, our guys were banged up, but you guys found a way to win, instead of "Oh Yeah...well if we had...".

Just give it up and give Wylie the credit. No shame in losing to the Bulldogs, they are the real deal.
