Has eight man ball ever been played in Texas? I don't know. Heard it was played in Oklahoma and did not Troy Aikman play eight man in Okie?

So how does Groom fair against Throckmorton?

Thanks.

I had a chance to see a six man playoff game last night in Granbury ( May vs Blum) for the first time since 2008's Strawn-Abbott game in Glen Rose. Rather cold that night in Glen Rose. Dang six years! I sat in the good seats on the home side at Granbury , the ones with the back supports! I...

Certainly considered going to the game last night in Granbury yet too much rushing around involved to get there after work. Not a good idea to be in a hurry driving DFW metromess traffic late in the day on a Friday. Sounds like the game was a good one. I'll be in Granbury tonight for Blum-May...

When did Groom move from 11 man to six man football? I was in conversation with a man that played on Groom's state finalist 11 man team in '75 that lost to Big Sandy in the final Class B game. He mentioned early 90's when Groom moved back to the six man game. I was searching for the exact year...

Throckmorton will bring a crowd, Calvert not so much. Saturday would be a bigger gate I think. I'll be in Granbury Saturday night anyway.

Hamilton has hosted some exciting six man playoff games. In this case one location for two state semis , May-Blum and Throckmorton-Calvert would be a treat for six man playoff fans out of the DFW metro mess area. I'll be making the 7:30 game In Granbury. An earlier kickoff for...

^ Not to start a major fuss, that game between Throckmorton and Trinidad saw Trinidad suit up only thirteen players that night. Throckmorton had to have had more suited up than just nine more than Trinidad. Incidentally, it is a schools enrollment numbers that determine eligibility for...

Being played in Springtown this game will be a real treat for me. For those that live around the D/FW metromess this game is a rare opportunity to see high octane six man football without having to drive a hundred miles. Last I saw a six man contest was the state semifinal between Strawn and...

51eleven: Sounds like you may be a Bell grad? Those were two great games in Texas Stadium in '82. I attended both and also Bell's disappointing loss in the state final that season. This gets away from the subject of Texas Stadium, actually in '82 I saw either Bell or Trinity play each week of...
