  1. Cort Jacquess came to play! He reminds me of my local high school's (Highland Park) guys. Not the most athletic, but they fucking know how to tackle and are in the right spot at the right time.
  2. I'm just happy I didn't hear anything about exotic looks. The only exotic looks I want in my life are what I pay for in the champagne room at Treasures.
  3. Makes me sick how many good players from Houston are on these two teams... Oklahoma's three best players (Hurts, Lamb, Murray) LSU's Delpit and Chaisson
  4. Exactly. These are 6A schools, you need to have another QB that’s not a freshman!
  5. And Shadrach Banks for NS, who was a star in last year’s title game.
  6. San Antonio.
  7. Very impressive win for Shadow Creek. They took it to a very good Ryan team. For those wondering, Shadow Creek split off from Manvel High. There is no overlap with Pearland ISD, as Shadow Creek is in Alvin ISD. If Manvel High hadn’t split up, they would be challenging North Shore in 6A D1, with a ridiculous number of d1 players.
  8. North Shore (Evans, Banks, Davis) and DV (Jackson, Byrd, Thompson) have strong arguments.
  9. So to recap, you couldn't offer any data for HFA at the high school level. No facts.
  10. Sorry I triggered you, my friend. You’ve now twice declared that I’m full of shit. If you cannot grasp the fact that when a team plays near their home, has more fans in the crowd, and sleeps in their own beds, they will have a home field advantage, then you’re not worth my time to debate. To educate yourself, please research sports betting and learn about how teams playing at home have increased odds of winning. Be well.
  11. Lol we will agree to disagree.
  12. Yes! This will be great...I grew up in Waco (so cheer for LaVega, although I went to Midway) and my brother-in-law lives in Carthage, so this one is personal.
  13. eh...I'm not so sure Duncanville was better last year. Keep in mind Duncanville had a big home field advantage, playing in their backyard, while North Shore spent 4 hours riding up in a bus the morning of the game. I do hope this year's game is competitive...really sucks that JQJ and Shadrach Banks (NS) are out. Would have been fun to see the rematch, with both sides at full strength.
  14. I'll only pick the 5A and 6A games, as I don't follow the lower tiers as much. 1. North Shore over Duncanville. JQJ being out sucks, would have been an epic battle otherwise. 2. Westlake over Guyer. Westlake looked amazing last week....very hot team. Guyer is freaking stacked though, so might be a tight game. 3. Denton Ryan over Shadow Creek. Both teams are completely loaded with D1 talent. Ryan beat a very good Lone Star team last week, which very much impressed me. I expect a tight game. 4. FB Marshall over Aledo. Aledo doesn't appear to be quite the team as in years past, and Marshall has been murdering teams.
  15. Just recapping for anybody who is just now catching up. State championship games for the big divisions: 6A Division 1: North Shore vs. Duncanville; Saturday 3pm. A clash of the titans, part deux. Regrettably, Duncanville's QB (Jaquinden Jackson, Texas commit) was injured last week 6A Division 2: Westlake vs. Denton Guyer; Saturday 7pm. Both teams are hot and playing very well 5A Division 1: Alvin Shadow Creek vs. Denton Ryan; Friday 7pm. Both teams are stocked with D1 players. Shadow Creek was formed by splitting Manvel High in two, and Shadow Creek is 30-1 in two seasons of play. 5A Division 2: Fort Bend Marshall vs. Aledo; Saturday, 11am. Malik Hornsby/Devon Achane vs perennial power Aledo and Jase McClellan
  16. Alvin Shadow Creek back in the 5A D1 state championship game for the second year in a row after whipping San Antonio Wagner. Xavion Alford and Alec Bryant on the Shadow Creek team.
  17. Katy Taylor has put it together the last month. They have two incredible O-line players in Hayden Connor (hook 'em) and Bryce Foster. Their 5 losses are a bit deceiving, as these came at the hands of Houston-area powerhouses Katy, Atascocita, Tompkins, Dickinson and Mayde Creek. Brutal schedule, as those first four teams are arguably the best 6A D1 teams in the area aside from #1 North Shore.
  18. Long time Rice Owls booster checking in... In case it needed emphasis, I'd like to officially confirm that Todd Graham is indeed a much bigger asshole than Tom Herman. Carry on.
  19. Is LT really improved that much to make it interesting? Last year they got humiliated, losing 51-10. I've always though you never really know what you've got with the region 4 teams at state, since the path out of region 4 isn't very daunting, with a lot of crappy teams out of the valley and San Antonio.
  20. UTEP’s stadium was already fully booked.
  21. Uh. It’s bad enough that I have to fly commercial, so don’t hate.
  22. Last week I just got the email that my American Airlines concierge key status was renewed for next year. They also allowed me to “gift” executive platinum to someone of my choosing. All I need to do is provide their name and AAdvantage number. Is there a market for this if I wanted to sell it? A guy at the bar last night offered me $1,000 which got me thinking.
  23. God damn...shadow creek ended with a 49-0 run to absolutely murder Manor. Should have lined Princely up at the 4i
  24. This is no time to be a smart Ash.
  25. Shadow creek with 23 unanswered. Now lead they by six.
