The greatest dynasty I’ve ever seen on a sixman football field was the Fort Hancock Greyhounds of the late 80s and early 90s. That team was incredibly fast at every position. They called their signals in Spanish, just to throw off the other team’s rhythm, and they scored at will on people. They...

I think Garden City may be another struggling 11 man program that dropped to sixman and had instant success. You may have to correct me on that.

Has McLean always been in sixman football? Or, are they the typical State Champion that drops from 2A (used to be 1A) 11 man football to sixman? Seems like a great deal of the struggling 11 man programs drop to sixman and have instant success. I can think of two off the top of my head, Jayton &...

Ben Crockett from McLean scored 12 TDS. He had 9 rushing (new state record) and three TD passes. He put on a clinic.

You’re welcome.

I have to admit that Taron Smith shocked me against the McLean defense. I thought for sure that if they frustrated him that he would commit a lot more mental mistakes. Still, he kept them in the game and his arm strength and speed are truly impressive. Ben Crockett on the other hand, looks like...

Wow! What a game! I missed that prediction by a mile! Milford almost pulled it off, they just ran out of gas after spotting McLean 16 pits. Who would have thought they would run up over 1000 yards of offense between both teams and 170 pits. Great job by both teams and I hope both teams make it...

The sad thing about this whole ordeal is that everyone is missing the forest for the trees. The intent of the UIL’s ruling/regulations on the eligibility of transferring students is to prevent the recruiting of high school athletes for the purpose of winning. They are trying to reassure parents...

Wow! What a well written, profound, emotional, and tribulational story! My thoughts and prayers go out to Cody’s, Sloan’s, and Sydney’s families. I grew up in a farming community just south of the Panhandle called Lenorah so I understand the breed of people depicted in this story. They are hard...

Good luck and God bless to both teams. Leave it all on the field and no matter what the score is when it’s over, you can walk off the field with your heads held high. I pray no one gets hurt and that everyone makes it to and from the game safely.

I’m not from the Panhandle iether. I’m from South Central Texas. Schertz to be exact. However, I’ve seen enough game film on both teams and plenty of sixman football in my 50 years on Earth to know greatness on a football field when I see it. I’m just calling it like I see it. I have not seen a...

I’ve already said what I think about both teams on this message board. Based on the game film I have seen of both teams, Milford will be out classed from the word go. This one will be over by no later then the end of the 3rd quarter. Milford is a sacrificial lamb! McLean-64 Milford-16 McLean...

Personally...I want to see Milford and McLean both win this week! Now, that is saying a lot considering I am from the West Texas area and support any team from there. Still, if Garden City goes down (which I think they will in a very close game) I will not be torn up about it. Why? I finally...
