Just noticed that Massey has NS, Atascocita, SC, King as 1, 2, 6, 11 in the whole state.

Pretty stupid to have Duncanville at 3. 30-0 at halftime over Waxahachie. Duncanville  has elite talent at QB, RB, WR, DE and DT. They havent allowed a point since SOC put up 13 in week 0.

Duncanville beat North Shore last year to end the mental edge NS had and this years team is better.

Can you name the team in 5A D1 region 4 that’s going to obliterate PSJAN like you think? I’m curious since my head is so far in the sand. 

Can you show me where I said that would happen this year? Because I'm pretty sure I simply stated a historical fact that you can't dispute because it's true. I'm sorry you don't like facts and they hurt your feelings? It's a valid point to be made when anyone is beating their chest saying "THIS YEAR IS THE YEAR OF THE VALLEY!!!". Don't get mad when someone points out historical facts.

Can you show me where I disagreed with that? I even cut you some slack by not bringing up the 2 6A playoff wins by RGV schools over San Antonio schools last year, and the year prior. I just mentioned how this team is probably the best I’ve ever seen down there and you started crying about it.
PPR, bitch

[cmontexas 3237]

Longview 10 Forney 7 at halftime.

Two top 10 5A teams. Forney has turned their program around nicely. They have a 2026 RB and Kelvion Riggins apparently plays for them now too

[markstanco 12464]

35-7 TXK pleasant grove over Gilmer at the half in 4A.

[cmontexas 3237]

Longview up 13-7 drives to the Forney 1 yard line and gets stuffed. FG is blocked but Forney blows the scoop and score. Jackrabbits ball just short of midfield with 4 minutes left

[cmontexas 3237]

Forney QB sacked on 4th down at the Longview 10. 30 seconds left. Lobos hang on

[Beau Vine 53845]

Games of the week:

Texark PG @ Gilmer 56-21 PG 3rd That's Gilmer's 3rd loss; they've allowed over 300 points in 6 games.

Hitchcock @ Yoakum Hitchcock 62-32

Malakoff @ Teague 35-0 Malakoff

China Spring @ Alvarado  57-20 CS

Hallettsville @ Columbus  42-14 CC

 

There are a bunch of surprise undefeated teams facing big PROVE-IT games:

Longview @ Forney  13-7 Lobos; tough first loss by Forney

Summer Creek @ NS  SC hung tough, but lost 31-21.  They're really good, and this district is crazy, with these two, plus Atascocita and CE King.

Mansfield Summit @ Midlo Heritage   42-7 MH.

Weslaco @ Harlingen  Weslaco 35-32  Yowza!

Hondo @ Jourdantan  (They're both undefeated.) Hondo's not anymore  56-25

Belton @ Rouse 32-20 Rouse

LaPorte @ PA Memorial  38-27 PAM

Seminole @ Canyon West Plains  48-23 WP

Graham @ Hirschi  Huskies with a shocker, 27-26 as the Steers blew a 20-7 lead thanks to a Pick 6 and a muffed punt.

Keller at SLC   Indians now 5-1 after losing 56-10.

Also, 

Buda Johnson 20 Austin High 19

Devine 35 SA YMLA 14

Harlingen-Weslaco 4th quarter was back and forth. Weslaco made the plays at the end to win. They’re well coached and looking at a 9-1 type season, SB is their only challenge

Our entire offense is QB power right or left with our 5’8 150 lb QB that can’t throw 5 yards downfield. I’ll give the little fucker credit though he runs with hatred in his soul. 

[msucolt45 3978]

Better question is why the B12 is allowing a CFB game on Friday night, if all of HS FB recruiting nights, can’t have attendance and where ZERO recruits can attend?

If in Texas, I’d told the networks F no to a Friday night. I know UTSA had to play on a Friday a couple weeks ago, and it’s a total waste for college games in Texas.

Hook’em!!!

My brother was at the game and told me the same thing. QB sweep and QB power and we couldn't stop it.

But offense came through with a big drive at the end.

Crazy game!

If there is money to be made they’ll do it. The players watch things in highlight-sized bites anyhow now. The on-campus stuff I am going to say doesn’t move the needle as much as it may once have. The goal for the best of the best is just finding a team that can get them to their ultimate goal of the NFL as well as who will get them some good money while they are in college.

Well they're lucky they don't have to play PSJA North 

[Helobious 9465]

Seems like a good time to update the Helo Polls

SA:

1. Steele (5-1) - Too much talent, they’d beat anyone in SA head to head

2. Reagan (6-0) - maybe the most well rounded team on here

3. Johnson (6-0)- offense is as unstoppable as anyone thought. Stone Oak Super Bowl this Friday will tell us a lot about 2 & 3.

4. Smithson Valley (5-1) - did someone say defense? They have it. Oh and Freddie Dubose is having a pretty huge year.

5. Jay (7-0) - The Miracle on Marbach continues as they’re having their best season in over 20 years. Pretty cool to see.

RGV:

1. PSJA North (6-0) - my feelings are known

2. San Benito (6-0) - Fabian García is keeping them rolling to an unbeaten record so far

3. Weslaco (6-0) - Siri, play “Negro Como La Pantera” by chino pacas

4. Edinburg Vela (5-1) - they have a QB that actually isn’t that bad but their terrified to let him throw

5. Los Fresnos (5-1) - the only team all year to score on the alphabets. That’s how good Robert Pineda is.

I didn’t realize heterosexual males playing volleyball was a thing until a few years ago. Turns out it’s actually kind of popular in non-Texas places. I think adding that and girls flag would be kind of cool, and drone shit I guess. Whatever gets more kids involved in being part of something positive.

Shit, it's huge in Hawaii.  The UH men's volleyball team are rock stars there.  Those guys were getting paid more than Eric Dickerson when I worked there.

Yeah, it was a perfectly cool high school sport in Northern California. The Pac-12 schools are great at it.

One of the most brutal things I've ever seen was a flag football game between two Catholic girls highschools. It was both disturbing and arousing.

A lot of the private schools here in NTX have actually had it since late 90s.

[Fudbelty 2785]

This week at home against Centennial and next week at home against Denton Ryan will be the last tests of the year before playoffs.

Last year it took Aledo a full half to figure out how top stop the Cent option game. Once Cent started throwing it was over.

Same with Ryan. Aledo settled down and relied on timely turnovers and Hauss Hejny(hay-knee).

Ryan Estrada - RB, El Paso El Dorado (SO): if I’m Sark I’m calling every 2026 top RB prospect and telling them to go fuck themselves. The guy I want plays for the El Dorado Aztecs. Probably my favorite player in the state, has offers from Baylor, Tech, UTEP, UTSA already, unheard of number of FBS offers for an El Paso freshman. Insert the “and he can pass!” gif from Friday Night Lights. The kid is a playmaker.

Let’s check in: 

(in my defense Estrada has been hurt most of the year)

They also have never had an undefeated season in Class-5A-D1... 2023 might be the year

Mansfield started this season 5-0 but got blown out by Cedar Hill and last night Duncanville outgained them 431-40. The Tigers managed 1 first down the entire game. 51-0 final after it was 44-0 at the half

People talk about 83 Daingerfield, 85 Yates and the Kyler Murray Allen teams as the best ever. This Duncanville team may be the best.

A long way to go, so I'd tap the brakes a little.  They were ahead 30-0 at the end of Q1, and didn't touch the ball in Q3 as Mansfield had the ball with the clock running... the entire quarter.

Its interesting how far MISD seems to have fallen off. Arlington too now that Wager is gone. I think alot of that talent matriculated to North Crowley, Aledo and the Midlo schools

A lot of the Mansfield departures have been to Midlothian and Centennial. Although, Aledo’s soph rb is a Mansfield transfer.

South Crowley is benefiting from all the South Fort Worth developments being zoned to them.

[Fudbelty 2785]

21-0 Aledo over Cent after 1.

[4th&Five 41444]

Dripping up on Westlake 14-7. Westlake offense hasn’t done much. TD was off blocked punt. 

[Fudbelty 2785]

21-0 Aledo over Cent after 1.

35-0 at half.

[Helobious 9465]

Judson lost to Clemens last night to fall to 2-5. One more loss and that’s 3 straight losing seasons after going 44 years without a single one.

[The Ace of Aces 5102]

North Mesquite may be the worst 5A team I’ve ever seen. Longview is up 49-0 with 4 minutes left in the first half and they’ve run a total of I believe 13 plays and thrown 2 passes. North Mesquite has zero first downs and I think -8 total yards. Seriously.  -8.

[blacklab 11838]

3 plays into second half, tied 14-14

westlake is fired up

[Beau Vine 53845]

Westlake run game is hot garbage.

[blacklab 11838]

Yeah, 2 guys unblocked into backfield every play

[4th&Five 41444]

The only drive that wasn’t completely predictable was out of half. 
 

Is the kicker hurt? Dude nails 59 yarders early in the season and now can’t make anything when he needs to. 

[HornsOverIthaca 2333]

Dripping Springs has a better defense than they did last year.

Chaps take their first lead with just under 9 minutes to go. 21-14.

Blocked punt for TD. Chaps up 27-14.

My nephew plays volleyball for North Central in Naperville. Apparently Chicago is a pretty big hotbed for men's small college volleyball.
