December 17, 20232 yr Desoto could just punt on the first play of every possession and still easily win this game.

December 17, 20232 yr This is a referendum on regions 3 and 4 in 6AD2. This has been DeSoto’s easiest game all postseason.
December 17, 20232 yr I think the Claude Mathis Effect might be dead. Also, How were you able to run so well? "We saw it on video" was a savage answer. Edited December 17, 20232 yr by Beau Vine
December 17, 20232 yr 8 of the 9 winning teams were all on the North side of the stadium. Only losing team on that side is/was Summer Creek. Thursday, Friday and Saturday games Edited December 17, 20232 yr by mininghorn88

They’ve had a sneaky great season, and when Claude Mathis is on the opposing sideline you’ve always got a chance to win.  6A D1: lol. Duncanville by however many points they feel like  5 minutes ago, Helobious said: Went 6-6 in my picks this year. That’s called progress. Helo, you went 8-4.

December 17, 20232 yr Dude Desoto are some assholes. Still throwing deep and multiple jailbreak punt blocks when up 50+. And a lateral to score. Guess they’re trying to break the records.Â

December 17, 20232 yr I hope Desoto D is running bleachers after this game for not getting the shutoutÂ
December 17, 20232 yr SOC game they were saying 19 teams have 3-peats. did they show the list? Would be a good trivia question. off the top of my head without giving it any thought I got the following. I have no idea if they are all right. I haven’t focused on HS football in ~20 years. I probably could have gotten 60-70% back then. I know there is a lot of low hanging fruit I’m missing Spoiler Daingerfield Celina Aledo Southlake Carroll Lake Travis Westlake Stephenville Mart Highland Park  edit: Stephenville never did it  Edited December 17, 20232 yr by UTexasFight

December 17, 20232 yr Final for anyone who still cares about this terrible game: DeSoto 74 Summer Creek 14.  Some interesting notes in an uninteresting game: DeSoto has a freshman WR who caught a TD and he was wearing a Texas Longhorn bandana. Maybe something to keep an eye on down the road. Tre Wisner’s little brother blocked two punts.  That’s all I got.Â

December 17, 20232 yr 14 hours ago, Vic Mackey said: My issue with it and so many of these calls in football and basketball, the foul or flag was only called after the ref looked at the result of the play. See it in basketball all the time. They see a foul but want to see if the player will make the basket. They don't and then call the foul way late. Ref didn't take the flag out until the ball hit the ground and play was all over. Guarantee he doesn't throw it if he catches it.  watch again…ref WAS reaching for his flag but couldn’t get it out.  ball in the air.  DPI…clearly.  he made exact the right call. Â

PNG travels in huge numbers. They filled up their side of the Astrodome, icluding all the way up to the rainbows, for the state final against Stephenville with Briles and little rape fingers Briles.

It looked like it too.  PNG travels well and it helped them even more having their game on Saturday helped push their numbers higher.    The fans that get the shaft are the lower classifications which many of the schools in those classes that make it don’t sit within a couple of hours from Jerryworld.  Those fan bases in some cases don’t have the resources to pay for $30 parking on top of all the other costs to get there if they can get there.  Small town folks just can’t take off work on a whim too on short notice    This whole concept needs to be reevaluated.  UIL is supposed to provide as neutral as possible venues for their championships and not fleece the very taxpayers who fund the organization.     Â

December 17, 20232 yr To me it was the small schools having not as many fans. And if you look at the small school teams it makes sense.Â
