PurpleNation Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 23 minutes ago, timeout! said: I'm looking at all the possible scenarios for realignment. Lufkin being in a weak vs strong district and who we could possibly matchup with if we qualify for playoffs. The UIL will do UIL things and Lufkin will have to deal with whatever hand it's dealt. No matter how things shake out. Coach Quick and the team will have to beat some good teams. There is no way around that. You can take your medicine in district, during the playoffs or both. But you gonna have to prove yourself worthy at some point. The really good programs look forward to proving themselves worthy. They take on all challengers and never look for an easy route to success. Duncanville wants nothing more, than to get another crack at North Shore. I'm sure NS feels the same, and prob would prefer a crack at Desoto. Unfortunately for Desoto, they won't get a chance to play NS. But will have plenty of teams lined up to knock them out. Longview is much the same. Their fans would love to be in a district with Desoto again. No matter what happens with Lufkin. Everything will play out next year one way or another. Is it possible to miss the playoffs for a 4th straight year? With DeSoto apparently opting up. I don't think it matters where they put us but in Region 3 who scares you before the title game? DeSoto would of been the only team in 5A I look at and just can't see a way. Highland Park doesn't scare me like that. Aledo will be the challenge but they ain't DeSoto. Pre district I imagine will be Longview, Consolidated and Nac and possibly 1 more based on how the district shakes. In district PAM is probably the best team we face maybe Barbers Hill if they're in our district. So it's not like we won't play anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is gonna be the best team they've had since 2017 and I think they're better then that team. This is the most experienced SR heavy team Lufkin has had in the Quick era.

LufkinPack Posted November 30, 2023 Report Share Posted November 30, 2023 If a certain coach would spend as much time and effort into a game plan for an entire season like he did the week going into the Lancaster game, we would be just fine. It’s a job. It takes effort sir. 👌🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackAttack Posted December 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2023 DCTF has Forney (12-1) a +4 point favorite over Lancaster (8-5) Two District 7-5A DI teams playing for the Regional Championship. IMO both are good enough to beat everyone else in 5A DI except Aledo. One very good team will be eliminated this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackAttack Posted December 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2023 The 2A regional finals game between Garrison and Timpson is tonight at 7 p.m in Nacogdoches at SFA’s Homer Bryce Stadium.

Bet both Lancaster and Forney are better than Brownsville Memorial or Smithson Valley. Of course Longview would probably beat both too. Don't think anyone is as good as Aledo.

I agree with you, TEXAS should be in the CPS, however I have no faith in the NCAA selection committee to leave out an SEC team, likely Alabama. Saban has influence , so it would not surprise me at all if Texas or Florida St are left out and Alabama or George are allowed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr. b Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 Georgia is now what 40-1 over the last few years. No way they cannot be considered as one of the top 4 teams in college football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
