2023 High School Football

[Hogfan58]

ELkins barely squeaked past CACH 53-15 and will move on to play Harding Academy in one Semi-Final.

Currently Elkins is ranked #2 in 4A and Harding #1 so it should be a good Matchup and the winner will be favored in the finals.

Kinda sucks that the two best teams were on the same side but oh well.  Likely both teams will score points and it will come down to which team can stop the other.  Elkins has been a scoring juggernaut all year, but certainly haven't played as strong a schedule as Harding.


Southlake has made it to the final #8 again and will likely get a rematch against Byron Nelson.

Elkins go down 41-27
SLC get their rematch with Bryon Nelson today, should be a good one.

HA looked like they had been there before (5xs) and Elkins was shaky to begin the game. Dropped two, maybe three passes that would have been TDs, overthrew a wide open receiver in the end zone. Fumbled driving for the tie in the third quarter. Then HA managed the clock for the fourth quarter. HA's QB is fast and elusive. Their main RB is a stud but heard broke a collar bone in the second quarter. HA middle linebacker is a UofA commit.
I think in ten games those two teams split 5/5. Very competitive game.

Wasn't much of a game.  Not sure what the fuck happened in the first game, but Southlake throttled them 56-7 in the rematch.  Wasn't much of a game at all.  We shall see if Southlake can close the deal this year instead of getting stuck in the top 2 or top 4 again.

Play DeSoto in the semi-finals at home.

Gonna go out on a limb and say Duncanville will win the D2 side and face the winner, but DeSoto did beat Duncanville in the regular season so who knows.  4 tough teams remaining it seems.

Absolutely amazing what's happened at PV.

Bolding can coach.

Make it take it won't work with Sheridan talent, will it?

[Barton Fink]

I'm sure Law Hawg is going apeshit.

[Too Big Pig]

I guess now we might get the answer everybody always asked. Can he make it work in a public school?

[hit_that_line]

How are they paying him? Because he asked for 3-400k from Lakeside.

Sheridan is a nice little town with nice people, but it is isolated and it's going to be very difficult to recruit there.

They can take their recruits to the Yellow Jacket Drive In! Get 'em a double hubcap cheeseburger and a brown derby ice cream in a waffle cone.

I applaud him for taking on this endeavor......most coaches are not willing to actually build a program....he is going to become the state's Jerry Kill

I thought Pine Bluff and Texarkana were coming back to the 6A. I guess I didn't count on the private schools, Pulaski Academy and LR Christian being pushed up to 7A?! WTF?! And Shiloh Christian to go to 6A?!

That's the price they pay for winning. 

[AporkalypseNow]

Never thought I'd see PA and LR Christian a division ABOVE Catholic.  What are the enrollment differences?

[egregious]

H-WH and Barton getting close, don't know what the enrollments are

I remember when Helena and Jonesboro were in the same class.

Jonesboro to El Dorado or vice versa seems like a long haul in a school bus.  Bet the home team if all else is equal.

Cabot has 2300 students
PA. 310
They are in the same conference.

Seriously, how does that work?  Is it like soccer where teams that win move up and teams that lose get demoted?
