SLC's game?

[LPFAN]

Is the Southlake game going to just be televised in the Dallas area on UPN or will it be on UPN throughout the whole state? Does anyone know if we will be able to pick it up in Lufkin on the UPN channel that we get through Cox Communications?

i am not sure, i know it will be in the Dallas area for sure, just watch UPN today and see if they advertise it, because, last time i was watching it, they showed luna score a td, followed by peyton manning thorwing a td (colts game follows) or you can just look it up online possibly if cox has a website and channel guide that way

[dragonsdaddy]

i can't imagine upn would go to the trouble and expense to televise it to restricted areas. hope not anyway. you ought to be able to check the tv guide in your area for the answer.

[RAB-07]

I don't see it on yahoo tv for the lufkin on cox comm. but you never know. I'd check your TV listings in the paper tomorrow morning

Thats the Yahoo TV link I used

[SLCDad]

My DVR is set to record.

[LPFAN]

I looked on TV Guide online and it is not listed. :mad: I noticed it is not listed for other areas around the state either. The Dallas area UPN station is the only one that I saw that was broadcasting it. I wanted to watch that game too. So do you all have a website where you post the video of the game like we have for Lufkin? I sure would like to see the game even if it is not live.

[jtk1519]

i thought gametime was 2:00

Kickoff is 2:06

[dragons08]

Kickoff is 2:06
2:06, who comes up with a whacky kickoff time like that, id understand 2:05 but 2:06? next its going to be...2:06 and 34.44 seconds

[Slim-Rob]

2:06, who comes up with a whacky kickoff time like that, id understand 2:05 but 2:06? next its going to be...2:06 and 34.44 seconds

Yeah thats ********. For us at Judson, the bell rings at 7:56 and the tardy bell is 8:06. Why not 7:55-8:05 or 8:00-8:10.

Gl SLC and Midland Lee. I am hoping for a close game.

[CoppellCowboy57]

Yeah thats ********. For us at Judson, the bell rings at 7:56 and the tardy bell is 8:06. Why not 7:55-8:05 or 8:00-8:10.

Gl SLC and Midland Lee. I am hoping for a close game.

that is messed up...its like at resorts the speed limit is 7...why not 8 or 9 or 10? that always confused me...

I hope slc gets killed...So ppl think Coppell has chance next week :)

[Redneckn]

Game not on the tube here in Austin (twcable). So I am listening on the net radio. Thanks for the link Dragons08. I wont be here long enough to hear the whole game, but I will set it to record probably.

[LPFAN]

Game time!!! We will see or at least hear how good they are this year... I am still mad that the game is not being aired on our local UPN channel. I am listening to it on the link that Dragons08 posted. Here it is again.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

SLC 1st Drive... Dragon's drive down to the 3... Now 4 and a yard on the 3... their stopped... Bad Play Call...

Lee takes over....on their own 3... Flag

[LPFAN]

Kinda unusual for them to get that close to the goal line and not be able to punch it in. :eek:

[sltnusmc]

who is the home team for this game

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Penalties hurt the dragons on their 1st two possessions.

[LPFAN]

who is the home team for this game
I am pretty sure it is Midland Lee.

[Redneckn]

5:04 left in the 1st. score tied at 0.

[c-lisle]

Sounds like Lee is a little better than Sam Houston. LOL

[LPFAN]

Sounds like Lee is a little better than Sam Houston. LOL
Sure does. Are you watching the game on tv or listening online?

[Redneckn]

I sure do wish there were a way to see this game down here. If anybody tapes it or burns it, I am willing to pay for a copy.

[LPFAN]

Lee goes up 3-0

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Lee takes the lead with a field goal.

[Redneckn]

3:07 left in 1st.
Lee 3
SLC 0

[c-lisle]

Sure does. Are you watching the game on tv or listening online?

listening online.
the game wasn't on Lview's UPN afterall.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

McKay takes the kick-off down to the Lee 31 yard line.... baby dodge is now in the game.

[LPFAN]

Wow......62yrd kickoff return by Jacobson. Riley in at QB for SLC.

[LPFAN]

Wow......62yrd kickoff return by Jacobson. Riley in at QB for SLC.
That will give your team some momentum.

[svhorns]

this may be a really dumb question but what happened to McElroy?

[LPFAN]

SLC has to cut out all the Holding Penalties....What is it now.....4?

[c-lisle]

SLC making some careless errors. 3 holding penalties already.

[LPFAN]

this may be a really dumb question but what happened to McElroy?
I guess Dodge is going to alternate QB's. I don't think he is hurt or anything.

[c-lisle]

this may be a really dumb question but what happened to McElroy?

Announcer jsut said coach planned to have 2 series with Mc and two with Riley.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Wow... bad series... but Little Dodge is really fast. He has really grown-up since the ESPN game last year.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Great Pass from Dodge on 4th down. Now 1st goal for SLC.

[LPFAN]

You would think that with all the hype we heard about McElroy that he would be too good to have to play in a QB rotation. You would think he would stay in unless he got hurt.

[c-lisle]

dang....awesome defense by Lee

[LPFAN]

3 tries at the one yard line and still can't punch it in.

[supercentex]

I think losing Luna is killer for SLC

[LPFAN]

will they go for 3 or for a TD???

[c-lisle]

You would think that with all the hype we heard about McElroy that he would be too good to have to play in a QB rotation. You would think he would stay in unless he got hurt.

Sounds like Dodge is aplayer though. Maybe Coach isn't sure yet who he wants to go with.

[c-lisle]

will they go for 3 or for a TD???


gotta go for the TD up the middle. why the heck arent they passing though.

[LoboFan07]

Great stopping by Lee..Time to see if they'll go for it.

[LPFAN]

Yeah I know Riley is sounding pretty good and if he is the better of the two I would stay with him. I am just saying that if Riley looks better then Greg then all this talk about Greg being great etc.... must be HYPE.

[sltnusmc]

oooooppppsssss

[c-lisle]

holy cow...arfe we hearing a upset. I knowits early. but dang thats two stops at the goaline

[svhorns]

ouch, oops, uh oh

[LoboFan07]

Wow Midland Lee Football!

[LPFAN]

And now Greg fumbles the ball....Not an impressive showing so far. I am sure he is good but........... :eek:

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Fumble... Lee takes the ball back to the dragon 40 something.

[c-lisle]

I'm definatley pulling for the underdog in this one. I'm sure all but SLC fans are going for Lee. LOL

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Dragon defense looks good against Lee. Lee punts, again

[LoboFan07]

Must agree.

Lee gotta capitalize on these chances.

[c-lisle]

Either Lee has a horrible O or SLC has agreat D. One thing is for sure Lee won;t win if they can't get the O going...no matter how good they play D.

[c-lisle]

Lobo...when the heck are they goingt to get the Marshall game up. Youwould think they would be more specific about the time it will be available. I'm ready to see it.

[LoboFan07]

Agreed.

That'd be strange to see a SLC score 3-0 at the end of the 1st half for sure.

Lee has got to score on those chances like they just had.

Im surprised htey havent put it up yet. Im ready to watch it again! :mad:

[svhorns]

anyone know any rebel chants?

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

That was a catch... Ref missed the call.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Greg is doing a great job running the ball. He just got another 1st down using his feet.

[LPFAN]

1st and goal again. Can they punch it in this time. Yessssss they finally do....

[LoboFan07]

And its 7-3 Dragons

[svrangers42]

Took 'em long enough :p

[LPFAN]

SLC leads 7-3

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Yeah.... Go SV Bills, Go... Go SV Bills... Go...

Oh' sorry I got SV and Buffalo Bills confused.

[LPFAN]

Took 'em long enough :p
Yeah that is not typical of SLC.

[c-lisle]

If SLC get its it going, it will wind up being a blow out. Doesn't sound like Lee is getting anything offensively.

[LPFAN]

True. McElroy did pretty good on that drive.

[dentonRYAN]

1st and goal again. Can they punch it in this time. Yessssss they finally do....

did you not see the replay....no catch

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Another great defensive stand by the dragons... 3 and out...

[c-lisle]

True. McElroy did pretty good on that drive.

Are you pulling for SLC?

[LPFAN]

What are you talking about dentonRYAN. I never said anything about a catch. Someone else did. And if you read any of my posts you would see that I can only listen online to the game because our UPN station in Lufkin is not broadcasting the game.

[LoboFan07]

Intercepted!

Midland Lee Football!

[c-lisle]

Another great defensive stand by the dragons... 3 and out...

Or bad O by Lee. INT by Lee....awesome.

[svhorns]

It may be the first game heebie jeebies but SLC isnt dominating

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Greg threw into 3 defenders.


Game still going on... Great run from Lee but SLC steals the ball...

Dragon's ball

[LoboFan07]

Dang it, Fumble now..Come on hang onto the ball

[c-lisle]

It may be the first game heebie jeebies but SLC isnt dominating

that goes for both teams....Lee fumble

[dentonRYAN]

That was a catch... Ref missed the call.

sorry....i was talking about this quote a while back.....

[LPFAN]

Are you pulling for SLC?
Well yes and no. Think about it, if they lose a game this year and then Longview or Lufkin meet and beat them in the playoffs the win will not have as much meaning. I mean it will be great that it would mean you will be going to the state title game but it would be a greater feeling to beat an undefeated SLC team. So it would be nice to see that they can be beat but it would be nicer for it to be a loss to Longview or Lufkin.

[LoboFan07]

Touchdown Southlake Carroll

[c-lisle]

Watch out now...game slipping out of Lees hands

[LPFAN]

SLC opens it up with another TD. SLC14-3.

[svrangers42]

Well, it was sweet while it lasted :rolleyes:

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Touchdown!!!! Greg has it together now.... Now it is time to set some records.

On that drive Greg looked better than Chase D. Stronger Arm and yes - he can Run.

[Redneckn]

I would think it would be better if Longiew or Lufkin won state and were undefeated.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

What a HIT... Dragons have the ball again...

[svhorns]

or if smithson valley went undefeated that wouldnt hurt my feelings at all

[LoboFan07]

SLC ball.

What on earth happening to Lee

[LPFAN]

Lee is just getting worse....

[c-lisle]

Well yes and no. Think about it, if they lose a game this year and then Longview or Lufkin meet and beat them in the playoffs the win will not have as much meaning. I mean it will be great that it would mean you will be going to the state title game but it would be a greater feeling to beat an undefeated SLC team. So it would be nice to see that they can be beat but it would be nicer for it to be a loss to Longview or Lufkin.



I guess so...but I still want Lee to win. If they don't get a TD before half though....they aren'tgoing to win IMO.

[slcdragons]

What a HIT... Dragons have the ball again...

that was a pop on the Lee kick off return :)

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

One play and Touchdown again....Look out state...

Defense - The Dragon's D is really hitting hard today.

Offensive - If today is an early indicator the Dragon's receivers are the BEST and the two QBs are going to be two of the best in the state.

QB - Both Dodge and McElroy are making Lee's QB look like a Pop Warner QB.

[LoboFan07]

Touchdown Southlake Carroll

[svrangers42]

Well, looks like SLC is back into championship form, unfortunately.

[LPFAN]

Well now that is sounding more like SLC football.....

[c-lisle]

that might be ball game. LOL

[LPFAN]

SlC 21-3.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

I wonder if the "Wind" had anything to do with Dragon play in the 1st quarter.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

The running back from Lee - Hinds looks good.

[LPFAN]

Well McElroy is doing alot better now so maybe he will live up to all the hype. Where is Renfro??? Is he still out with the broken collar bone? Jacobson is having a heck of a game.

[c-lisle]

Well....I guesss if Lee can score before half they are still in the hunt, but the odds are still aginst them since they can't stop SLC pass game.

[sltnusmc]

Hinds cant do it all by himself. Quiz isnt known for deffense either

[LPFAN]

Well Lee finally gets a TD. :eek:

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Lee scores.... Hinds sets up the field position....

Nice Drive.


Dragons have 90 seconds to score again.

[sltnusmc]

Its about time !!!!!

[Favpack]

so, what is it 21-10? Wow - I missed this one big time - way to go Rebs.

[svrangers42]

who gets the ball first the 2nd half?

[LPFAN]

Well an 11 point deficit is not that bad. Looked like it was going to get out of hand. We will see if SLC comes out and just blows Lee out of the stadium or if Lee will come back with a little more confidence and makes the game a little more interesting. SLC still has 90 seconds so they could still score before half time.

[LPFAN]

who gets the ball first the 2nd half?
If I am not mistaken I think it will be Lee.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

With 90 Seconds left - Little Dodge has a great 35 yard run.

McElroy is now in the game. Great Pass to McKay.

Touchdown!!!! Less than 41 seconds to score!!!!

[LPFAN]

SLC is driving down the field and looks to be ready to score again.

[sltnusmc]

I thought Nate Newtons son was on the Carroll team as a tailback, it this true?

[LPFAN]

Dang SLC does it again!!!!!!!!!!

[LPFAN]

I thought Nate Newtons son was on the Carroll team as a tailback, it this true?
Yes his name is Tre.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Tre is a good kid

[LPFAN]

SLC is just racking up some yards. :eek:

[sltnusmc]

Thanks, since I have moved to Indiana, I really miss good h.s. football. I have to listen on the internet.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Half-Time...

28- 10

[sltnusmc]

I hate to write a team off at half time but I dont think Lee can score enough points to keep up and the defense for sure is not going to shut down Carroll

[c-lisle]

I hate to write a team off at half time but I dont think Lee can score enough points to keep up and the defense for sure is not going to shut down Carroll

I agree.

[southlake thug]

Does anyone know how many passing yards McElroy had in the first half? This kid is amazing.

[dentonRYAN]

I hate to write a team off at half time but I dont think Lee can score enough points to keep up and the defense for sure is not going to shut down Carroll

The coach didnt sound too confident either in his halftime interview....but hopefully its still enjoyable

[Redneckn]

Ok y'all. I have to go now. Stupid cookout!!!
I will expect to read scoring recaps when I get back home.

[sltnusmc]

I wish this was SLC v. Abilene, would be a much better game people.

[southlake thug]

I think Greg and Riley are the #1 and #2 best qb's in the state. The 2nd half will be embarrising.

[LPFAN]

Ok y'all. I have to go now. Stupid cookout!!!
I will expect to read scoring recaps when I get back home.
I am sure you will have some good food. Wish I had some!!!

[sltnusmc]

What yr is the Dodge kid? The coches son I assume, he will probably be a very good qb when he gets his chance to start!

[southlake thug]

he is a sophmore. So we should be set for a while at qb. He has tremendous potential.

[LPFAN]

Well I guess Renfro is in the game. I hadn't heard his name called in the first half.

[c-lisle]

goooo lee. if they can get the O going it might get interesting.

[LoboFan07]

goooo lee. if they can get the O going it might get interesting.

Well there goes the idea of getting their O together

[sltnusmc]

If Hinds goes out its over

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Well I guess Renfro is in the game. I hadn't heard his name called in the first half.

Yes, Client is in the game... he had the catch that was rules incomplete in the 1st half.

The dragon's are off to a slow start for the second half. But that was big play... They knocked the snot out of the Lee QB.


But the Dragons lose the punt. Lee has the ball inside the Dragon 10.

[LoboFan07]

Midland Lee Ball!!!

[LPFAN]

Maybe Lee can do something with this turnover on the punt return.

[c-lisle]

is anyone stilll listening tothis....Lee is having plentyof chances to get init, but can't take advantage

[LPFAN]

is anyone stilll listening tothis....Lee is having plentyof chances to get init, but can't take advantage
Yeah they can't say they didn't have a chance.

[LoboFan07]

Touchdown! Touchdown! Midland Lee Touchdown! 28-17 SLC!

[LPFAN]

Lee Scores!

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Lee on the Reverse... Touchdown... Now the Dragons are going to have to open up the Offense.

[LoboFan07]

28-18. Went for two and got it Woo

[LPFAN]

Well as of now Lee is still in this game but if the Dragons unleash their potent offense again it will be the same story.....different season. They are still a great team. I like the kind of offense they run.

[Slim-Rob]

where is it on at.

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

How many receivers do the dragons have this year?

[the_great_state_of_TExas]

Nice Pass from Dodge... but it slipped through Renfros' hands.

[LGVAg]

www.tsrnsports.com

[Texasfrog]

Nice Pass from Dodge... but it slipped through Renfros' hands.

Shoot, I'm surprised its this close. I thought with the defensive players out for Midland Lee and having a new untested QB. The score might be about 55-10.

Sounds like the REBS are at least putting up some level of a fight.

[c-lisle]

Lord so old LOL! :eek:

[c-lisle]

Lord so old LOL! :eek:


lol

[BigFanSLC]

You could really tell taht this team is a whole new SLC team, they started out really tentative, i dont get why Dodge has been switchin out so much with his WR's and especially takin Jacobson out of Punt Return.... other then that i think that Dodge at QB and McElroy are a good double threat.

[LPFAN]

Was Lee the only team that was expected to give SLC a good game or are there any other teams on SLC schedule that have a legitimate shot at beating SLC?

[sltnusmc]

I think they go into the playoffs 10-0, way too much offense for alot of teams

[zippy]

Ok, SLC fans. What is the deal with your QB? I have been listening to this on the radio online, and it seems Dodge is playing as much as the supposed #1 QB in the nation. Was it all hype? Is Coach Dodge not sure who is going to play? What is going on? I know its not just giving little Dodge playing time, cause he was in when SLC didnt have the game in the bag. He was in early, and SLC didnt have it won for sure until the last TD in before the 4th Q. Any ideas what is going on at the QB position?

[zippy]

You can only play one QB at a time however, what is the deal here?

good question, because I was wondering the same thing. Is it going to be McElroy or Dodge?

[zippy]

Nobody figured Lee to be a good game. Everyone was predicting 63-14 or in the area. I figure SLC will not have a problem until playoffs. Their district is not very strong at all, and they should fly through it.


Was Lee the only team that was expected to give SLC a good game or are there any other teams on SLC schedule that have a legitimate shot at beating SLC?

[zippy]

I hope they dont use them both, they need to pick one and go with it, with the other serving as backup and blowout QB. just my opinion, but seems that would be the better way to do it. As of right now, I dont think they know which will be playing.. Going to be interesting.


good question, because I was wondering the same thing. Is it going to be McElroy or Dodge?

[sltnusmc]

I get the feeling that Dodge is playing because this game is over !!!!!

[LPFAN]

I get the feeling that Dodge is playing because this game is over !!!!!
Dodge was playing when they were behind 3-0 too.

[sltnusmc]

Apparently he can play, and to be honest the only reason Midland Lee is or was in this game, Carroll miscues and penelties.

[zippy]

Thats what Im saying. He was NOT in because they had it won.


Dodge was playing when they were behind 3-0 too.

[LPFAN]

So what is the score now? I am listening to the Katy vs Woodlands game now.

[sltnusmc]

Cant beat real game experience!! And he is only a soph. Carroll opponents are getting a look at the future.

[zippy]

Yea, he sounds like he is doing fine, but what is going on with McElroy? That is what I am wondering. As for the only reason Lee is or was in the game, hey thats football. Has Lee played a flawless game? With a team like Lee has this year, and all the people they have out due to injury, they are doing very well.



Apparently he can play, and to be honest the only reason Midland Lee is or was in this game, Carroll miscues and penelties.

[zippy]

41-25 I think


So what is the score now? I am listening to the Katy vs Woodlands game now.

[LPFAN]

41-25 I think
Thanks!!!

[zippy]

Who is this idiot doing the radio? Anyone else hearing this moron griping about Lee using time outs to try to score again? What does he want them to do? Give up! Idiot

[zippy]

OK, I cant listen to these morons anymore. Good game SLC, but get some new radio hosts. These guys are idiots..

[jtk1519]

I ran back to the house real quick and figured I would say a word or two. SLC is still SLC, but they looked a little rusty. The biggest running threat was Riley Dodge. Speaking of, Dodge rotated the two QBs a lot. McElroy looked pretty good but he did over throw some balls. Riley is gonna be something special... I promise. He is a better runner at this point but he can throw. When he turns the corner, he is damn fast and very good in the open field.

Dodge also rotated the RBs a lot. Neither looked great. The SLC offensive line is very good. Their LT #77 is a monster and damn good. Lee couldnt get any pressure at all on the QB. McElroy just had all day to sit back and wait for the receivers to get open (Dodge was long gone before the receivers could get open).

SLC should be very good this year. Their defense looked alright, but to be honest, I didnt think a whole lot of Lee's offense.

[southlake thug]

#77 is Mike Prince and Yes, he is a beast.

The game plan for the Dragons was that Riley would play every third series. McElroy had a bad shoulder and was actually questionable earlier in the week. Also the heat probably had an effect on the playing time.

McElroy is the number 1 guy, and he will be for the whole year. Tre Newton is a beast. That run at the end of the game was unbeilvable

[raidercheerdad]

What was the final?

[zippy]

So McElroy will be the starter? As for Newton, did he not play much? He only had like 97 yards and most (87) were from one run. Is he going to get playing time? How many carries did he have to get the other 10 yards?


#77 is Mike Prince and Yes, he is a beast.

The game plan for the Dragons was that Riley would play every third series. McElroy had a bad shoulder and was actually questionable earlier in the week. Also the heat probably had an effect on the playing time.

McElroy is the number 1 guy, and he will be for the whole year. Tre Newton is a beast. That run at the end of the game was unbeilvable

[zippy]

48-25 I think, I quit listening to those idiots.

What was the final?

[SwingingGate]

I ran back to the house real quick and figured I would say a word or two. SLC is still SLC, but they looked a little rusty. The biggest running threat was Riley Dodge. Speaking of, Dodge rotated the two QBs a lot. McElroy looked pretty good but he did over throw some balls. Riley is gonna be something special... I promise. He is a better runner at this point but he can throw. When he turns the corner, he is damn fast and very good in the open field.

Dodge also rotated the RBs a lot. Neither looked great. The SLC offensive line is very good. Their LT #77 is a monster and damn good. Lee couldnt get any pressure at all on the QB. McElroy just had all day to sit back and wait for the receivers to get open (Dodge was long gone before the receivers could get open).

SLC should be very good this year. Their defense looked alright, but to be honest, I didnt think a whole lot of Lee's offense.

If you really look at it thta way then Abilene Coopers offense wasn't impressive either from what I saw.

Well now there's a real big DUH!

[dragonsdaddy]

the fact of the matter is that as late as friday, no one knew whether mac would play at all. i saw him several times this week and he got along as fast as could be expected with the injury he suffered last friday. the heat played a part in the decision to rotate qbs and wrs. it wore down the dbs late in the 2nd. jacobsen had cramps at half time and renfro's shoulder had only this week allowed him to practice, so he was out of condition.

my take is that slc played a very mediocre game with lots of mistakes and still has some of the weakest special teams play in the state. i am looking forward to some big games from several wrs that didn't get involved much in the offense today. there aren't enough balls to go around. our rb situation is very dependent on the ol play. no blocking = no rushing. the defense was put in some horrible field position problems several times and did fairly well generally. lots of room for improvement all around the field. not a pretty win, but a win none the less.

coppell better be ready to get slaughtered, cause it's happening at your own yard next week.

I agree with the first highlighted part- that guy is a beast. Tre Newton was nothing special this afternoon. That late run was against a very tired Lee D. Luna was a beast but not Tre at this point but he is only a sophomore. :cool:

[southlake thug]

Alright i agree.. i should have said that he is GOING to be a beast.

[Texasfrog]

Ya, a buddy of mine is a "OC" in Alabama. I showed him last seasons SLC vs Lufkin game. He feel in love with the Prince kid. Said he was " a very very good O-lineman."

[svrangerfan]

SLC has to come back to the pack eventually. It may not be this year though. Isn't McKay Jacobson entering his 8th season in a Dragon uniform?? Seems like he has been there forever.


Rangers we will be!!!

[southlake thug]

He has been on varisty since he put on pants.

[slcsportsfan]

I think Tre will be good next year. If this game is any indication of where he truly is, he has work to do. Looked like Morefield was more in tune with his responsibilities when he played. Tre goes down pretty easily with arm tackles. I'm sure it seems worse that it is due to the fact that for 3 years we didn't see it happen with Luna. In a game like today we had the horses to keep swapping out. Lee, obviously, didn't. By the mid 4th quarter they looked like they just wanted the game to end.

[Favpack]

Really surprising second half - Lee 8 / SLC - 7 - that is dang surprising. I had SLC winning huge in the heat. They clearly dominated, but hats off to Lee. I listened to parts of the game and it sounded like Lee players were cramping more.

This qb swapping would be ticking me off if I were McElroy. As I stated, the coach's son take will get some serious debate here this year. If Greg throws picks at a regular rate - he'll get some clipboard duty IMO.

[cougardude]

Really surprising second half - Lee 8 / SLC - 7 - that is dang surprising. I had SLC winning huge in the heat.

??? The scoring in the second half was SLC 20 - Lee 15. The final was 48-25. Not sure what your 8-7 reference was to.

[Favpack]

Ok - sorry - I missed an update - thought the final was 35-18 - thanks. That score sounds a little more Dragon-like. And, I missed the update on Greg's shoulder - hope it's not serious. I heard Renfro's name very little - I guess his injury kept him out as well.

[drgnbkr]

Fav, the game was not as close as the score, which was'nt really close either. McElroy stung his shoulder in the scrimmage last week and as Ddaddy said earlier, there was some doubt as to whether he would play at all. He did not practice all week & went 20 for 33, for over 300 yds. with 3 TD passes and 1 running. The plan was for Riley to play every 3rd possession, all along. He ran extremely well & had a nice touch on the ball. Tre Newton is a sophomore, & played like one, but he will be a special player before too long, no doubt there. Carroll had way too much depth for Lee, especially at WR, which is incredibly deep..the Dragons swamped them in the second half without Jacobson & Renfro, for the most part. Lee played hard & will win some games this year. Carroll is loaded again, with a very solid D, outstanding offensive line, and almost unfair depth on offense.

[dragons08]

there were some extremly hard hits man, the one i think of is, the one where, i cant member who but he was a dragon, flipped some dude over and the Lee dude landed on his back, that was hard hit, or hte time riley nailed the defender, and just knocked him to the ground, riley played pretty tough IMO, also on a kickoff? i think, i couldnt really see, but from what it looked like, some dragon dude just nailed the lee guy and he fumbled, had to be a hard hit!

[jtk1519]

I was very impressed with SLC all things considered. I went to Shotwell not expecting to see McElroy at all. I also didnt know how much of Renfro I would see. You take away a couple of SLC mistakes (and a couple of bad calls) and SLC scores 60 easily.

The amazing thing is, even though SLC still has some stuff to work on and kids to get healthy... they still racked up over 530 yards of offense (359 passing and 177 rushing), 25 first downs, 48 points and they only punted twice. It's scary to think that those numbers were put up by a "rusty" offense.

BTW, the SLC defense held a potentially good offense from Lee to just 236 yards of total offense. Not bad if you ask me.

when you break it down, it looks like we should of won by a lot more, and becasue we didnt, i give a lot of credit to Midland Lee, they played a heck of a game, congrats on the hardwork!

[southlake thug]

Yeah Matt Harrison had a sick hit on that kickoff, and James Allen threw a nice block.

But what about that "fumble" that McElroy had on the goal-line. He was obviously all the way in the endzone and somehow the refs missed that.

But I was pretty happy to see that Evan Fintress had a couple of catches. He is really quick and just adds more depth to the recieving corps.

[BigFanSLC]

Fintress didnt play to the hype that everyone gave him. you cant have the fumble on the punt and also i think he dropped a few balls.

[dragonsdaddy]

Fintress didnt play to the hype that everyone gave him. you cant have the fumble on the punt and also i think he dropped a few balls.
i agree he had a couple of miscues, but generally i was impressed with his ability to get open and sometimes by long distances. he's going to make some dbs have sleepless nights before it's over. smiter is going to come up big this year too. as i've been saying for months, our wr depth is sick. we had 350 yds and got no production from the leading returning wr in the state.

[ALLIN]

It was a weird game. We think SLC offense played a lack luster game, but they had 48 pts and 530+yards and 2 punts. We say the defense looked good, but they gave up 25 pts (I know field position was bad, but still), it just seems weird. All in all, SLC is still SLC and they have an as good or better shot than most of the top teams to make it back to the dance. Expect much of the same from the previous years, sorry. By the way, McElroy was over the line on the fumble, just throwing that out there:)

[dragonsdaddy]

there were lots of bright spots yesterday, but none moreso than the return of the old mckay. he looks about 110% of his old self. there's fire in them eyes and gittiup in them wheels. he's got some he!! to dish out and db's all across the state are going to take whether they like it or not. i expect i may have typed a few lines that even my #1 detractor won't contradict.

[SLC13]

Can anyone explain why Lee stats in DMN and FWST are so different??
DMN shows Lee getting 242 total yds.....87 rushing and 155 passing
FWST shows 208 total yds.......111 rushing and 97 passing.

Are they watching different games or what??

Regardless of what's right, I thought the "D" had a pretty good game......room for some improvement certainly, but they did a good job again of limiting a very good RB. :)

[southlake thug]

Yeah the defense was pretty solid. Boydston had a couple of good plays . The team looked solid and now i am looking forward to next week. It should be pretty fun to watch.

These are the stats from the Abilene paper, the Midland paper and Gofirdaynight.com (which usually gets the stats straight from the coaches themselves)...

Midland Lee:
Rushing - 34 attempts for 109 yards
passing - 16-29 for 155 yards

264 yards of total offense

[CrazyCanuck]

I could not believe my eyes when I saw the final score of HP and DR. It appears that DR does need a doctor. So much for the big televised game in October. Anybody have any thoughts on what's up with DR

[southlake thug]

What was the final?

[RAB-07]

40-14 or something I think

[implacable44]

are you talking about me ddaddy ? - You know good and well I am not going to say anything negative about Mckay. He looked good and like I have said in previous posts -- the sooner whoever the QB is realizes their glory and victories like with the receivers - especially Mckay - ( I found humor in people saying Clint was the best receiver -or the transfer kid) the better off SLC will be.

I think it is kind of funny that I see all these greenbloods posting Mcelroys stats but they always leave off the fumble and the 2 picks in the stats. mmhhh? Seems like you would want to tell the whole story. He looked pretty good - especially for being hurt. but his receivers were open all day == all day. He missed a few easy tosses and chose to tuck and run instead. --seems to me he likes to lock in and holds the ball a little too long - could be wrong though. Riley -- all 5'9" of him is a better player and a better QB.

SLC looked pretty good. I see them making a deep run - barring injury. that was not a td - the ball got popped out well before he crossed the goal line - and midland lee let a lot of opportunities slip --

[southlake thug]

Yeah i would love to see how many Qb's could post those numbers in their first career varisty start and extended playing time. Regardless of int. or fumbles.

I don't think I or any Dragon fans said that McElroy would dominate in his first game. Give the kid some time and he will shine.

[implacable44]

would youlike me to do a search on your posts slc thug so you can see how you hyped him up =

[southlake thug]

fine...All i said was that McElroy would throw for 5 tds and throw for over 500 yds.

That was before i knew that him and Riley would rotate every third series and Mac shoulder. Those predictions may have been a little exagerated. But Noone ever said that he would dominate in his first game.


If it is playoff time and he is not starting or he is not performing up to your expectaions. Then you can talk all the trash that you would like. But until just complain about something else.

[ktCarl]

Wow. I don't remember Katy taking so much flak/smack after winning State in '03. In fact, we didn't take this much abuse after losing to Clear Lake.
I guess drgnbckr and dragondaddy really stir things up on this board.

[zippy]

Hey Clear Lake had one heck of a team.

[Reaganrattler07]

I would have to say the kid played well nonetheless. Especially it being his first time out.

Predictions are something you think is gonna happen. It's like playing the lotto you "predict" certain numbers. Now, do you always get them right? No. But if you hit it in the general ball park, then you had a fairly good prediction.

And who cares if he threw two ints and maybe even fumble the ball once or twice. Most important thing is he didn't let it get to him and he still lead his team to victory.

[implacable44]

well obviously the slc apologists care because if they didnt then they would mention those same stats in their posts.

[Reaganrattler07]

well obviously the slc apologists care because if they didnt then they would mention those same stats in their posts.

Okay, it isn't that big of a deal, they won, yes, he made some mistakes but that's almost expected from a QB that has just began to lead the team for the first time, has a shoulder injury and the burden of repeating another State Championship.

[Reaganrattler07]

I'm sure he will get better after that game. If not, you can trash talk me all you want - just give the kid a freaking chance before you call out every little thing that's wrong with him.

[Eaglewatcher]

I think that's why some have tried to tone down the rhetoric on this kid. Predictions on him have gotten way out of hand. He is a good QB and will get better, but some of the summer predictions were setting the bar way too high. Even an excellent season would be viewed as a failure if you were to believe some of the stuff posted on this board in the last few months. Back off this kid a little and give him some time and room to grow and quit expecting 5000 yard seasons and 500 yard games. If they come, great, it they don't, then you can still enjoy watching a talented football team play.

[Reaganrattler07]

The thing that gets me is he's prooved that he can be a good quarterback and he won a game and people STILL point out his imperfections. People always forget the good parts of something but never forget the bad parts.

No kidding.. with all the talk, press clippings and ect on him this past 6 months. He had to feel like the weight of the world was on his shoulders.

Heck, I watched the Hoover vs Nease game on ESPN. The All-American QB-Tedbow from Nease threw a couple of picks and fumbled the ball once. But his still very good.

[zippy]

That Tedbow kid is amazing. He is huge, but still has speed. It was funny watching those guys try to take him down when he ran with it. They said he had some issues to work on before college, but I think he will do just fine as-is. He seemed to stay calm and continue to lead even when they were down by a few TD's. It will be interesting to see how he will do in college. Did he give a verbal to anyone yet? I didnt hear anyone say anything about where he might be going.

Once again plac..when the kid is 20 of 33 with 4 TD's in his first starting game & routs the other team, with a bad shoulder...we'll take it...picks, bobbles, warts & all..know what I mean? And your right Riley ain't bad either, & we've got him for 2 more years after this....

[dragonsdaddy]

I'm sure he will get better after that game. If not, you can trash talk me all you want - just give the kid a freaking chance before you call out every little thing that's wrong with him.

trust me, i44 doesn't need your permission to talk anyway he chooses.

[Reaganrattler07]

I meant that I would take it because I made a call and it was wrong, and I'll accept my mistake.

anyway, that's what i44 does, and quite well, at least quite a lot like the bulldog down the street.

[implacable44]

redskins - let me explain to you why I and others point this out. HEre is the deal = these greenbloods - they are a proud bunch - and deservedly so because they are dang good. but they like to hype their kids up - they are the best at everything - deep snapper? - the best - punter- the best - school - the best - go back and read the posts - they were pumping that kid up = Lebron Jamesish and then after the game - they only post his positive stats and dont say anything about the picks or the fumble -- well if he is that grand =- post all the stats -- ALL OF THEM

Look I think he is good and I have said as much in my posts - but dragonsdaddy and bklr and slc thug etc.. -these clowns - sorry - guys are unbelievable bias. It is ridiculous. I went to Judson but you dont hear my or lonny on here saying how Judson has the greatest this or the greatest that - at least for my part - I am more of a realist.

Now Ddaddy what he does is look up a $5 dollar word when you call him out and try to hide behind it - but when he discusses the issue with an educated individual - well he resorts to petty tactics and holds on to his hof status with his 900000000000 posts.

[zippy]

I dont like to argue, so I am not getting into this, but I did have to say one thing, and I think that SLC fans will agree with me.

Well, I don't think dragonsdaddy was happy with me trying to defend SLC so I'll just step out of this matter. But of course they're gonna have high expectations - they're the Champions. But you also need to give slack to a new QB.

I try to be a realist....quite difficult at times. But that's what I tryt o be on boards - especially when there are others involved but if I'm talking to my friends in school, I'll be the most bias person you'll ever meet.

[implacable44]

hey he played good and I am sure he will have a good career at SLC but my response was not as critical of his play as it was of the SLC apologists who hyped him as Peyton Manning -

[dragonsdaddy]

when i am posting with intelligent individuals, there is no need to be "petty" or anything but respectful. when i post with someone whose objectivity is based on where a kids attends church, it's a whole other matter. my objectivity is highly questionable, but i do have a long relationship with many of these kids, and while i may be a little over-board on ocasions, i am 1-49 as an apologist.

as an aside, i happen to have a large vocab and spell pretty well, which is neither here nor there when it comes to getting points across. it is just a way to use these expensively garnered words in conversations that don't arise very often in real-life. my mom does that sort of thing for a living and would be proud to see me use the 25 centers when a nickle one would do. hey everything else i have is falling apart, now that the warranty has run out, i better use em while i got em.

[SLCDad]

I agree with you about McKay. He could be the MVP this year and was clearly the MVP on Saturday. His 8 catches, 147 yards and 2 TDs were impressive. Let's not forget his 85 return yards. Not bad for half a game.

No doubt that McKay is helped by the defense keying on Clint. He is also helped by the match-ups he gets playing from the slot.

Frankly, SLC is way to deep at receiver. There are another 5 guys in addition to McKay and Clint that can get open and catch the ball.

Add to that the mini QB controversy at SLC. Everyone knows that both McElroy and Riley are good. People are arguing which one is better.

All of this bodes very well for the SLC passing attack.

You may have a point, my friend, but I think you look at SLC through mud colored glasses. Living next door to Southlake and seeing SLC replace your beloved Judson as the #1 5A football power can taint your persepctive. Not as much of a realist as you might think.

No one said SLC was the best at everything. No one said McElroy was Lebron Jamesish.

It was stated that SLC has one of the top overall programs in Texas (they do). It was also noted that McElroy is a stud and a strong D1 prospect. He is. That's remarkable for a player who had never started a varsity game and remarkable coming on the heels of 3 consesecutive years of SLC QBs being the 5A offensive players of the year. That is truly noteworthy.

[implacable44]

SLC Dad - I will just address the one comment you made that stands out to me because it illustrates the delusions shared amongst the loyalists - " SLC replace your beloved Judson as the #1 5A football power" - wow what a bold statement. SLC has been 5 a for what 3 years going on a 4th and already they have established themselves as the #1 program in all of 5a football in Texas? Amazing. KAty ? Katy respond ? North Shore ? ANyone see a problem with this sort of comment ? - It is totally indicative of the nature of the beast. - in 5 or 10 more years - come speak to me about being the #1 power in 5a.

Ddaddy- So you are petty with me becuase you feel intellectually superior to me ? I see. I will have to brush up on my vocabulary and research the science and nature of teeth so that I may be on your level intellectually. I will start on that right away so that hopefully one day I can be HOF or at least close and we can discuss football, teeth, whitenening and I gain your much sought after respect. Until such time, I fear that I will lose sleep and go bald. Lord - please bless me to be as smart as that einstein with the Thesarus in hand Ddaddy.
As far as Mckay - I just think he can play and he is a good kid. My statement that he is the best player on this team has no relevance to his religious affilitation. He has talent and heart - I know from playing basketball against him that he has fire and doesn't back down. He showed on Friday he is the best player on the Dragons.

[southlake thug]

I dont like to argue, so I am not getting into this, but I did have to say one thing, and I think that SLC fans will agree with me. They dont have the best punter, as a matter of fact I would say that their punt team last year was in the bottom 2% of the state. Other than that, you guys can carry on with this arguement.


I don't think that there punt team was in the bottom 2%, but even if it was it is a completly irrelovent stat considering this team punts about once a game. Last year the punt team played poor in the playoffs, and hence took a lot of heat for it. Also our punter was James Allen, also a wide receiver. Trust me, James didn't loose any sleep over the punting stats last year. He was relishing over his offensive stats. This year Kevin Ortega will take over the punting duties. His first punt that went 17 yards was his first ever punt and was also into the wind.

I think it would be very hard to criticize SLC's special teams. If i remember correctly Ortega made a field goal as time expired to win the State Cahmpionship last year.
