A@M Consolidated -vs- Euless Trinity

[FootballJunkie]

Since no one is talking about this D1 Semifinal game we might as well start.

AMC is a very solid team. I don't know much about Trinity. What is everyone's thoughts about this one.

[Red Raiders]

Where is the poll? dang, I guess I will start one soon with poll and more people will visit to me more, haha.

[bhs06_2]

Don't know anything about AMC but if they can pass the ball they have a chance

[Red Raiders]

Thanks for the poll! That means I won't make another thread.

You don't know anything about anyone. So go back to the band.

Right on btrain. If he blows his horn as hard as he blows here, he is the loudest in the metroplex!!

[bhs06_2]

I'm not in the band. Band is a disgrace at our school no matter how many championships they have won

it't more than your football team has done lately:p

[covefan2008]

AMC is a really good team, i remeber when they gave cove a scare. they will give trinity a run for thier money. win or lose
(p.s. band isn't that bad)


good luck tigers!!! from a cove fan!

[PonyExpress81]

Just about everyone in the state except for the teams in our district have picked ACM to lose in every round so far and they probably will again this week too.
5A Texas Football message board addict Lonnie (7,000+ posts) fired us a couple months ago and he knows everything about anything football related - so please keep on under-estimating us. It has really helped in terms of team motivation so far.

Trust me it isn't lost on us that AMC has beaten every team they had been picked to lose against in the playoffs. I think u guys WILL NOT have the benefit of being underestimated.

[GTown02]

EP Franklin was a spread team, and the secondary played pretty well, so that "if they pass they can win" argument doesnt hold water. That Trinity offense was unstoppable today. Nance went off again for 260+ yards, and that passing game was no slouch. It will be tough for anyone to stop that O from scoring.

The Bands , cheerleaders, drill team, color gaurd, mascot, fans ant the team are all part of High School football in Texas. The band practices just as hard, as well as the cheerleaders and the rest to get ready for friday night. All of them together are what make "school spirit" what it is. Cove has "the Wave guy", Garland has the "superowls" and I'm sure the rest out there have their own things that make the fans stand up. If your school's band has won championships, that is something you should be proud of, it's your schools name on the trophy

Token make everyone feel better post.

AMC people, tell me about your offense. I'm interested to know. For those of you that don't know the last 5 years that Lineweaver has been here we've lost to running teams in the playoffs and not passing teams like everyone thinks (Lamar, Lufkin(state champs), Lamar, Lamar, Tyler Lee(state champs)). But, I'm not as concerned as most years because of our ridiculous offense. As long as we don't have to go up against Reggie McNeal I think we will win. It will be a 1-2 TD win. Hopefully AMC won't sneak up on us.

I am sure you were confident before playing SGP. Don't underestimate AMC they ARE a good team and are capable of winning this game. They can run as they have done so far in the playoffs and they have a pretty good reciever or 2 as well. Defense is pretty good don't expect to just run over them.

[ACM Dad]

It promises to be a good hard-fought game. Saturday 1pm Waco.

i seriously doubt this furom will be brought into the locker room to fire u guys up??

[Jordon1804]

I mean say what you want but the bottom line is all the smart and...dumb money will be on Trinity and I mean why not? Top 5 team in the state. But because all the big timers like Dave C and ect will have their money on Trinity but if consol is not fired up to be in the state semis than they have no pulse, the being the underdog just adds a little chip but it might be a bit overrated. Been underdogs ever since joining 5a so I think it might get a bit over used this week. The thing more peircing to consol is every week in the play-offs you see only 3 or 4 out of 16 people on this sports pannel in the towns paper pick them, while all the others had them already losing 3 games in the play-offs. That to me drives them more than what this site or or others say. Either way both teams will leave it all on the field.

[dragons08]

You don't know anything about anyone. So go back to the band.
whats with all the hating on band?

[dragons08]

I'm not in the band. Band is a disgrace at our school no matter how many championships they have won
a disgrace? how can something so succesful be a disgrace? maybe you guys should learn to support all of your school and not just football

EP Franklin has no where the size, speed, or talent than other spread teams you guys have faced this year.

[COVE THUNDER]

A@m Con.. has my vote... Go gettem guys...:)

[nate]

As good as AMC has played, they have not seen an offense like Euless Trinity will bring. I project a 14-20 point victory for the Trojans based on their offense's ability to pound away at the AMC defense and the fact that AMC does not have the playmakers to expose Trinity's defensive weaknesses. I'm sure AMC will put up a good fight, maybe even hang for a half, but Trinity is too strong in my opinion and over 4 grueling quarters, the strength of that team will reign supreme.

That's right... look deep into my eyes.... you are getting very very sleepy... repeat after me... "they have no playmakers" (lewis) "they have no playmakers" (gay) "they have no playmakers" (orozco) "they have no playmakers" (mcmurray) "they have no playmakers" (jackson) "they have no playmakers" (myatt) "they have no playmakers" (carter) "they have no playmakers" (holmes) "they have no playmakers" (williams) "they have no playmakers" (szymanski) "they have no playmakers" (fitzgerald) "they have no playmakers" (thompson) "they have no playmakers" (scott) "they have no playmakers" (parrish) "they have no playmakers" (dailyx2) "they have no playmakers" (dudley) "they have no playmakers" (smith) "they have no playmakers" (holt) "they have no playmakers" (smock) "they have no playmakers" (hanks) "they have no playmakers" (kroll) "they have no playmakers" (dallas) "they have no playmakers" (gideon) "they have no playmakers" (jones) "they have no playmakers" (watson) "they have no playmakers" (reinberg) "they have no playmakers"...

you are starting to wake up now. you are feeling very refreshed and cocky. you are overconfident. consol has no playmakers. saturday will be very very easy. you should start your B Team. when I snap my fingers, you will think about nothing but the championship game. you will not worry about consol, they are no worry at all.

<snap>

Wow, I feel better, how 'bout you?

I went to the AMC game last Friday. BOTH TEAMS are 3-0 and they have a very good team.
GOOD luck to both teams and may th best team win.
GO E.T.

[ruffshod]

This is actually an intriguing matchup. Consol will probably be the underdog. But they have proven they can play with anybody. I wasn't impressed with the win over Ike earlier this year. But they seem to have settled in nicely.

[ruffshod]

I hope not those two as they are no longer playing. Don't compare. Compete.

[FeeltheHaka]

Yes, I am biased. I think Trinity will take this by at least 14. We lost to SGP, because we overlooked them. That won't happen again. A&M Consolidated has a good team, but not as strong of a district. I'm going to sound pretentious, but I don't see how any team can compete with the size, speed, execution and competiveness of Trinity. I'll admit there can be improvements in the first quarter defensive pass coverage, but Trinity uses 2 things on this. 1. They adjust. 2. They hit the receivers so hard, that very soon the receivers are scared to catch the ball. For anyone who has been to a Trinity game this year, you might have noticed that probably Trinity has sustained about 2 or 3 game stopping minor injuries all season. The opponents have had about 5 per game. This is including the playoffs.
And on bashing the band.... This is kind of old. I played football in High School, and had no idea what was going on during halftime; while the coach was yelling at us in the locker room. I now go to the games with my kids, and think wow, this is good; I had no idea they did all this. They were out there practicing carrying their instruments while we were practicing. I think it shows alot about a school that puts on a good half time performance. Also, not everyone is athletic; and this is a good way for others to get involved with the team. Yes, I was like any idiot in high school who might have picked on an occassional band guy to show off. I regret this, and am sorry that I did this. I now enjoy the halftime, almost as much as the game.

when are we NOT the underdog in the playoffs? every team we've played we "should've" lost to.

So it doesn't matter whos the underdog, because bottom line is ONE team is going to win.

The best shall win.

[gritty52]

I watched Consolidated play against Berkner and they will be the scrappiest bunch we have played this year, and are not to be taken lightly. #24 and 25 looked real good running the ball. Granted they didn't need to pass, but when they tried to pass the qb couldn't get the ball to the receivers. Don't know if he had a bad night or what? This will be a real good game and excited that my Trojans are here for the 3rd time in 5 years. Good luck to all!! Trinity fans lets hold this excitement! I know it's hard, but don't go predicting victories lets just play!! PEACE!!!!!:D

The qb that played isn't a good passer. He hands off.
Thats pretty much it.
Our other QB's who are juniors pass, but #8 is a hander offer!

This is the farthest Consol as a 5A has gone in the playoffs!

Good luck!

[bell grad dad]

Don't put BHS06 in the band.........We're WINNERS !!!!
You've pissed me off BHS06, I was on your side until that earlier post.

Good Luck Trinity.............let it roll !!!!

[Jordon1804]

#8 Josh myatt is a Sr and has alot of heart and is 4-0 as a starter this year. He has worked his butt off to get to starting again and has been this way when I was a Sr. Consol trys to control the clock, if they need to streght the field and he can not get it done they will make the change to Jones, but Josh is playing with all heart now and is getting the job done. Yes Trinity has a huge size diference but consol, we are always smaller and so we use techn. skills, so it will not phase the team. I am interested to see how they play with Trinity. Trinity fans I think yall are a top 5 team in the state and look alot better than when I watched yall lose to Tyler Lee last year and I know the history of yalls huge o-line. Its a huge step for consol, if they do not turn the ball over they could keep it close and they might be undersized and undermaned but they do have the nod in special teams and special teams win and loses close games just ask Texas A&M.

Our special teams has been vital this year. Our kicker, who committed to A&M as a sophmore, Matt Szymanksi, scored all 9 points against Bryan. so anything can make or brake this game. I wanna see Jones or Gideon. They both can pass well, but Josh is doing a great job. Although he is just handing off, i'm hoping we will pass the ball this week. but who knows. Josh has a HUGE heart and I love that kid, and our Oline is amazing.

[bhs06]

I'm sorry but since our band decided to play only one or two songs the whole game for each game we played this year that really angered myself and our team mates. They would just sit in the stands in the first quarter, maybe playing a song, they'd play the fight song if we scored but thats it. About 2 minutes to go in the 1st they would leave the stands to "warm up" for halftime. Other schools left with about 3-4 minutes left in the half but ours left before the 1st quarter was done. They would not return to the stands until about halfway through the 4th quarter and maybe play one song. By that time we were out of the game in most games. The other team's band always stayed in the stands as much as they could, they would take off the last 3-4 minutes of the 2nd and that was it, our band was selfish and basically were there for themselves. Our Raiderettes were no different.

We could have used any support this year, given all our students, a lot of faculty, and even some parents were against us. And our student body would be heckling us... what the heck your own students heckling your team? That is why in pep rallies during the alma mater we did our own circle... they didn't believe in us and got satisfaction out of watching us lose why should we participate in the alma mater with them? Screw them all. Our coaches told us just to ignore those "jealous idiots" because that was what they were. It seemed as if the only people who believed in us were our own team and our cheerleaders that was it.

Sorry for being off topic but I am sick of people calling me a band boy and others wondering why I am harsh on our band. Hope this clears things up.

True. I was just noting that alot of people would pick against you guys. Never said you couldn't win. You've gotten this far. Keep it up and y'all might be champs. Who knows?

[ACM Dad]

The qb that played isn't a good passer. He hands off.



I'd say you are not correct. Myatt doesn't just hand off. He runs well, isn't scared to lower his shoulder and get the extra yards. The key to his success of late is that he is not asked to win the game. He does an incredible job of not losing the game. That's all we need. He's scored several running TD's this playoff season. He apparently has the team's confidence and has turned into a leader. I agree with Jordan... all heart. He gets the job done.

In the Berkner game, I don't recall too many passes. Didn't have to. But, I also don't recall that the ones he did throw were bad. He had a pick but that was a tip drill type thing. Not sure I'd blame that one on the QB. His first turnover in 4 games.

He can hit certain passes very well and we've got some receivers that specialize in YAC. Slippery fellas that are darn hard to tackle.

Don't worry about Consol, they'll bring their A-game. As fans, that's all we can ask.

[ACM Dad]

True. I was just noting that alot of people would pick against you guys. Never said you couldn't win. You've gotten this far. Keep it up and y'all might be champs. Who knows?


I'd agree with you. I think all four teams left have a great shot at winning it all. You just have to play the games. The oval ball bounces with you some games, against you others. I am definitely looking forward to the game this Saturday. Playing football in December is an incredible thing.

I'm a little jealous of you there. At least my son still has some little league games left.:D

[bugw09]

If I read between the lines, I begin to think that maybe, just maybe, yall are the underdogs? None of you AMC fans have told me about your offense yet. Please do.

[baylordad]

The bottom line is Trinity and AMC will start off 0-0. They are similar teams and the winner will have a shot at the state championship. Could not be a better pairing. I went to the AMC / Berkner game and AMC was more impressive than anyone we have played. Their kicker is the best I have ever seen in high school football and that covers a lot of years. I am looking forward to a great game.

[YuccaRoot]

Well said baylordad...it should be an exciting game.

[Red Raiders]

This has to be a hard prediction since Cons. beating great teams including The Woodlands, Austin Westlake, and Pflugerville. Euless Trinity still have more test to go against Consol. and if they win than the real test will most likely beat Westfield. We will see next week..

[ACM Dad]

If I read between the lines, I begin to think that maybe, just maybe, yall are the underdogs? None of you AMC fans have told me about your offense yet. Please do.

We can run it and we can pass it. Our old Wing T has been a mainstay, but there is a well-practiced, game-tested Spread O that has come along nicely this year. Some of our early games were primarily used to get the new passing offense up to speed. We looked a bit ragged at times during the first couple of games. But, it's paid off. We used it to come from behind in wins against Waco, Harker Heights and Shoemaker. We were 18 points down with 7 min left against Waco and won. Similar, but not as dramatic, situations with HH and Shoe. We actually moved the ball well against Westlake, but the turnovers killed us. All that said, we weren't out of that game until late. Against Cove, our O-Line controlled the line of scrimmage all game.

We have 4 running backs that are almost interchangable. 2 will burn you with speed, 2 will just mow through you.

Our Senior QB has gone 4-0 in his last four starts, with only one turnover. He also scored 2 TD's against the Woodlands on the ground, not sure if he ran one in against Pflugerville. He makes excellent decisions and will not lose the game for you.

Wide Receivers are playmakers. Once the ball touches their hands, it's all about the Yards After Catch.

O-Line is strong, quick and will be pulling so much the defense never quite knows which ear hole to protect.

I think that sums it up. And, we love being underdogs. :)

[tigertrainer08]

And, we love being underdogs. :)

haha. isn't that the truth. every playoff game except Pflugerville we were favored to lose. We were only favored by one point against pville. But we've proved ourselves.

And about Josh, I think he hands off a lot more than jones or gideon. Those 2 can pass, and honestly, do you really think josh is a good passer? just curious..

[gritty52]

Who said Consol is the underdog????? According to these yoyo's on here Trinity hasn't played anybody yet!!!! On here until we play a good team we aren't even top 10 material. From what I see on here you guys have made yourselves the underdog. You boys have a ballgame ahead of you Saturday and if you think you are the underdogs keep thinking it, but I guarantee you Trinity don't believe it!!!!

[tigertrainer08]

who said? it's kind of a known fact.

where have you been?:)

[gritty52]

I've been here all year!!! Just wondering who started these underdog statements that's all? :D :D :D :D :D Is it reverse psychology or what??

[stinger]

BHS06 2 Everything you say is a joke. They stopped everything El Paso has, including the pass. AMC passed only a couple of times, their run wasn't that strong either. However, they will definitely be erady for the game. I think Trinity will wear them down by the second quarter, as they have every other team. Thjey will NOT stop the run game, and Trevor will probably be allowed to pass even more. I expect Trinity top score over 42 points.

El Paso didn't have anything to begin with

[tigerbsball3]

ACM is team that knows how to win. They have the will to win. A win is a win and it does not matter what the score is, each game is a new game so throw out all the records. Consol might not have the best athletes but we prepare the best for each and every team and that is a compliment to the coaches. So dont start watching film on Westfield just yet trinity. Consol also has one of the best kickoff teams in the state.

[bell grad dad]

According to the bracket posted earlier........El Paso Franklin had 10 more wins than Bell did and 7 less losses even after running into a Trinity team that is pretty good. Give Trinity their due, they may be the best team from our district in quite some time.

As for no one respecting you and your team, you seem to forget those of us who bought season tickets and were there every game. If you had paid as much attention to the games and not so much to what the band director was doing.....you might have played more. You have brought out undeserved criticism of your teammates by your postings. Joe Mauro may not have had the year that all of us had hoped for, but he will be going on to play on Saturday's for a D1 school. The game would not have been any different with a healthy Joe Mauro, unfortunately this year we were not very good, blame it on the old coach, new coach, schemes or whatever.........but don't take anyhing away from Trinity or from the other students at your school.

The past three seasons may have been our best chance to beat Trinity and stop this slide, but we weren't full health at QB those games either. We lost, they were better. The Band is not under the same practice regulations during summer that the football team is...........they are out there for 3 a days during August and work their tails off to get where they are. YES I AGREE WITH YOU, they are cocky and treat the football team and others with disrespect. I can assure you this does not come from the director as I have seen him be very suppportive of the football team over the past 4 seasons. If the football team could duplicate the success of the BAND, I'm sure you would see the same actions from them. If you are good(SLC) then it is not bragging. Quit making everyone hate Bell more than they already do, Congratulate Trinity on a great season, how many other teams this year have the chance to say that they lost to the State Champions ??? Most brackets it's no more than 16. You are going to be in select company ......relish the moment.

ACM Tigers will have Trinity's tounges hanging out by halftime, Trinity's OL & DL looks like they could use some 100 yard wind sprints. They better bring their lunch and a lot of H2O its going to be a long day for them in Waco on Saturday. Trinity's backfield looks in good shape but can't be any better than Pflugerville's all-star backfield (3 Division 1 Recruits - Texas, Tx Tech & Baylor) or Copperas Cove and we shut both of them down. ACM held Cove's Offense to only had 80 yards for 3 1/2 qtrs.- Berkners run attack had 30 total yds in the 2nd half last week. The Woodlands had less than 50yds. in the 2nd half until we put in our 2nd team defense the last 4 minutes of the game.

Trinity has won this year because their offense has averaged 70+ offensive plays per game. No one that they have played can play run defense, SGP did the best because they stopped the run and held Trinity to 59 offensive plays and SGP got to keep the ball in their posession 60 offensive plays. If Irving Mac had a decent run game they could have used up the clock and won. MAC threw the ball 39 times and kept stopping the clock - only ran the ball 10 times in that game. While Trinity ran the ball 71 times and threw only 8 passes. Actual time of posession was a big factor in that game. Trinity 79 Plays on offense and Irving Mac only 49 offensive plays.

Trinity lost to a balanced attack by S. Grand Prairie

ACM Tigers will have Trinity's tounges hanging out by halftime, Trinity's OL & DL looks like they could use some 100 yard wind sprints. They better bring their lunch and a lot of H2O its going to be a long day for them in Waco on Saturday. Trinity's backfield looks in good shape but can't be any better than Pflugerville's all-star backfield (3 Division 1 Recruits - Texas, Tx Tech & Baylor) or Copperas Cove and we shut both of them down. ACM held Cove's Offense to only had 80 yards for 3 1/2 qtrs.- Berkners run attack had 30 total yds in the 2nd half last week. The Woodlands had less than 50yds. in the 2nd half until we put in our 2nd team defense the last 4 minutes of the game.

Trinity has won this year because their offense has averaged 70+ offensive plays per game. No one that they have played can play run defense, SGP did the best because they stopped the run and held Trinity to 59 offensive plays and SGP got to keep the ball in their posession 60 offensive plays. If Irving Mac had a decent run game they could have used up the clock and won. MAC threw the ball 39 times and kept stopping the clock - only ran the ball 10 times in that game. While Trinity ran the ball 71 times and threw only 8 passes. Actual time of posession was a big factor in that game. Trinity 79 Plays on offense and Irving Mac only 49 offensive plays.

LOL, those r some nice NUMBERS. On top of that those "geniuses" at AMC can even see into the future. On their site www.amctigerclub.com for everybody to see they proclaim themselves STATE BOUND. Trinity fans simply resist the urge to be bothered by this. Simply cheer EXTRA LOUD and TRUST the boyz to get it done. And don't forget about the sig. :D !!!!

[Sicemhorns09]

It comes down to this... Consol was the darkhorse in region II... they were going to lose to The Woodlands... and again in RD 2... this team has shown me that they can win... I look for Consol to taste defeat against Westfield in the State Championship game... good luck to our former district rivals!!

[gritty52]

What this pony express cat don't know is the shape these big boys are in. Are you guaranteeing a win by Consol? If what I saw Friday is a sign against Berkner you boys better practice extra hard this week. The HAKA will be in Waco on Saturday!!!!!!!!!!!!!! About the 4th qtr. your cats will see a tongue!!:D :D :D

[bhs06]

According to the bracket posted earlier........El Paso Franklin had 10 more wins than Bell did and 7 less losses even after running into a Trinity team that is pretty good. Give Trinity their due, they may be the best team from our district in quite some time.

As for no one respecting you and your team, you seem to forget those of us who bought season tickets and were there every game. If you had paid as much attention to the games and not so much to what the band director was doing.....you might have played more. You have brought out undeserved criticism of your teammates by your postings. Joe Mauro may not have had the year that all of us had hoped for, but he will be going on to play on Saturday's for a D1 school. The game would not have been any different with a healthy Joe Mauro, unfortunately this year we were not very good, blame it on the old coach, new coach, schemes or whatever.........but don't take anyhing away from Trinity or from the other students at your school.

The past three seasons may have been our best chance to beat Trinity and stop this slide, but we weren't full health at QB those games either. We lost, they were better. The Band is not under the same practice regulations during summer that the football team is...........they are out there for 3 a days during August and work their tails off to get where they are. YES I AGREE WITH YOU, they are cocky and treat the football team and others with disrespect. I can assure you this does not come from the director as I have seen him be very suppportive of the football team over the past 4 seasons. If the football team could duplicate the success of the BAND, I'm sure you would see the same actions from them. If you are good(SLC) then it is not bragging. Quit making everyone hate Bell more than they already do, Congratulate Trinity on a great season, how many other teams this year have the chance to say that they lost to the State Champions ??? Most brackets it's no more than 16. You are going to be in select company ......relish the moment.

Good argument, only thing is if us and Franklin swapped districts I think we would have had 11 wins and they would have had 1, 2 wins. They did worse against Trinity than we did at full strength. It is like comparing a 10-1 team from the Sun Belt conference to a 3-8 team from the SEC.

[BigFoot]

The Bands , cheerleaders, drill team, color gaurd, mascot, fans ant the team are all part of High School football in Texas. The band practices just as hard, as well as the cheerleaders and the rest to get ready for friday night. All of them together are what make "school spirit" what it is. Cove has "the Wave guy", Garland has the "superowls" and I'm sure the rest out there have their own things that make the fans stand up. If your school's band has won championships, that is something you should be proud of, it's your schools name on the trophy
That is very true...all work hard and promote spirit which is a huge part of the game. So "the wave guy", "superowls" and "haka" are all part of the spirit. Call the haka silly or whatever...it gets the whole fan base excited.

[BigFoot]

#8 Josh myatt is a Sr and has alot of heart and is 4-0 as a starter this year. He has worked his butt off to get to starting again and has been this way when I was a Sr. Consol trys to control the clock, if they need to streght the field and he can not get it done they will make the change to Jones, but Josh is playing with all heart now and is getting the job done. Yes Trinity has a huge size diference but consol, we are always smaller and so we use techn. skills, so it will not phase the team. I am interested to see how they play with Trinity. Trinity fans I think yall are a top 5 team in the state and look alot better than when I watched yall lose to Tyler Lee last year and I know the history of yalls huge o-line. Its a huge step for consol, if they do not turn the ball over they could keep it close and they might be undersized and undermaned but they do have the nod in special teams and special teams win and loses close games just ask Texas A&M.

ET has been in your shoes too. We played Bryan in 1982 and they looked like the Dallas Cowboys. Our team was small and quick ..Bryan #1 in the state when we played and we won 14-13. So I don't think we will "misunderestimate" anyone. Lineweaver will remember too. Others may not consider you a threat but we take everyone seriously.

Gritty I couldn't agree more.

Now no one hasn't really seemed to mention this but we have a guy that after we beat a team, the team's head coach always says the same thing, "Dimitri Nance can't be stopped". Even in the game we lost against SGP he still had a 200+ game. We didn't lost because they stopped the run, they didn't. It was really one guy, M. Williams, who is a hell of an athlete he just made three big plays that turned the game around. Like someone said early in the forum we weren't ready for them, we had them underrated. Now Lineweaver treats every game like we are getting ready to play SLC in the state finals. Now if AMC adjust to stop Nance which probably wont work since it hasn't all year. Handy would just run all over you guys. They are different types of runners even though they are the same size. Handy would be started any where else if he wasnt behind Nance. Good Luck to AMC you will need it. :D :D

[svrangerfan]

EP Franklin did not do much to get in the way of a very good Trinity team. I sat on the EP side & those poor people thought they had a chance because of a very nice comeback they had against Mansfield Summit. #40 for Trinity was bigger than any of the Franklin kids & he was a tight end. However let me say the fake punt when you are up 56-14 was chicken@#%*.They are good and they will probably win state but it will be hard to root for them. Even against Judson if that were to happen.

If you were watching that game how did you miss the fact that the snap was low and the punter bobbled it. Everyone on our side thought we we going to be sacked. He clearly could not punt it because they were coming and he was on the ground picking it up. Fair is fair here. Lineweaver is not that kind of coach. I promise you he never does that. He takes a knee or even a delay of game. We put in our backups what do you want?

[gritty52]

Cheer for who you want, but I believe that fake punt was a snap that bounced 4 times before it got to Perry our punter. I know this is hard to believe, but Lineweaver really like's a close game . Also Jordan our TE is a JR. and how big will he be next year??:D :D :D

[toonman]

I like Trinity for this one. I think there is a certain destiny to Trinity's season. Trinity are putting up some impressive numbers, far superior to A&M. I believe that Trinity will have too much Offense for A&M.

Let’s compare a few facts :-

Regular Season Records : A&M 8-2 - ET 9-1
Average Points Scored : A&M 23.2 - ET 46.0
Average Points against : A&M 17.8 - ET 16.6
Average Margin of Victory : A&M 5.5 - ET 29.4

Play-offs
Average Points Scored : A&M 29 - ET 51
Average Points Against : A&M 15 - ET 18
Average Margin of Victory : A&M 14 - ET 33

I prefer to let the numbers speak for themselves and they are saying to me ET to win, to play Westfield in the Final.

Well i had a lot fo respect for the amc team till mr cocky opened his trap. Yeah we lost one game. Our bad for looking past it,but we study tape as hard and practice as hard as anyone else and everyone is entitled to one bad game. look at slc they had a bad game against grapevine but everyone STILL says how there team is close to unbeatable. amc is a very good team and so are we.This is the playoffs so all teams obviously have some good points.Chill with the stats and just watch the game.

Malcom Williams is the best player in the state, in my opinion

Cheer for who you want, but I believe that fake punt was a snap that bounced 4 times before it got to Perry our punter. I know this is hard to believe, but Lineweaver really like's a close game . Also Jordan our TE is a JR. and how big will he be next year??:D :D :D


I still say you should take Jordan and put him in the backfield and let Handy and Nance do some running with him as the lead blocker. Of course what yall have been doing is great so no need to change it, I just wish Handy could get more carrys he is just as fun to watch run as Nance.

[stinger]

Ponyexpress81...did you do that mess for your keyboarding class? You passed, but your team won't. What were the numbers when AMC lost TWICE? Just drop the stats and wait to see what the teams bring to the field. Numbers don't...players win. They don't make excuses, only people like you do. I hope you aren't so hard after the game. The numbers didn't lose....you did.

[Aggie]

I cannot believe that some are referring to numbers and stats in high school football. Anything can happen Saturday..just looking for a great game and there is no doubt that I will see one.
One thing is for sure AMC's kicker is the best in the state..maybe nation. Guy is unbelievable.

Im sure the guy is good, but I bet Plano could make a case for having the best kicker. This guy is hands down the greatest kicker I have ever seen in all my years of watching high school football.

he was ranked 2 or 3 in the nation last year i think

I watched two game films of Trinity tonight.

It promises to be a good game.

Whichever team makes the fewest mistakes wins in my opinion. I think the two teams match up well.

I hav heard it has to do with American Airlines. AA is headquartered a stones throw away from Euless. I have heard that is the big reason many of them have located to Euless is to take jobs with AA. I know someone from Euless will be able to provide us with a better detailed answer.

They are from Tonga, an island nation in the south pacific. American airlines flew there and as the Tongans were hired, many immigrated to Euless since it is so close to DFW airport. They have a great culture and have brought some of it to Euless. Please don't call them Samoans since they are not from Samoa.

:confused: You guys sure on the Samoa / Tonga thing? First time I remember the HAKA getting to be a big deal in sports was The New Zealand All Blacks rugby team. I think the Maori get the credit for the Kamate Haka.

[bugw09]

trinity has both Samoans and Tongans but mostly Tongans. It was actually a question on Jeopardy one time." What city has the largest population of Tongans next to Tonga itself?" Oh and yeah don't confuse Samoans and Tongans, they tend to hate that, their islands have been warring for a long time. Although big, most Tongans are the nicest people ever so long as you dont piss them off. AMC has by just playing them, so good luck with that. You can ask the QB from EP Franklin how bad it hurts to get hit by a Tongan. He was limping extremely by the end of the game.

[PonyExpress81]

Gritty I couldn't agree more.

Now no one hasn't really seemed to mention this but we have a guy that after we beat a team, the team's head coach always says the same thing, "Dimitri Nance can't be stopped". Even in the game we lost against SGP he still had a 200+ game. We didn't lost because they stopped the run, they didn't. It was really one guy, M. Williams, who is a hell of an athlete he just made three big plays that turned the game around. Like someone said early in the forum we weren't ready for them, we had them underrated. Now Lineweaver treats every game like we are getting ready to play SLC in the state finals. Now if AMC adjust to stop Nance which probably wont work since it hasn't all year. Handy would just run all over you guys. They are different types of runners even though they are the same size. Handy would be started any where else if he wasnt behind Nance. Good Luck to AMC you will need it. :D :D

Gritty, Thanks for the heads up! Do you think we should even bother to drive up to Waco this Saturday?:eek:

[QUOTE=PonyExpress81]ACM Tigers will have Trinity's tounges hanging out by halftime, Trinity's OL & DL looks like they could use some 100 yard wind sprints. They better bring their lunch and a lot of H2O its going to be a long day for them in Waco on Saturday. Trinity's backfield looks in good shape but can't be any better than Pflugerville's all-star backfield (3 Division 1 Recruits - Texas, Tx Tech & Baylor) or Copperas Cove and we shut both of them down. ACM held Cove's Offense to only had 80 yards for 3 1/2 qtrs.- Berkners run attack had 30 total yds in the 2nd half last week. The Woodlands had less than 50yds. in the 2nd half until we put in our 2nd team defense the last 4 minutes of the game.

It's all good man. One of y'all will be right and can gloat come Sunday. I watched some game film last night. Those are some powerful guys you got up front. I'm sure they are in good shape after playing ball for 13 weeks. I don't think anyone at ACM is thinking they'll be walking in the 4th quarter. Just looking at this poll, you'd think we ought not even show up! :) But, hey, we'll be there with our A-game and we'll all find out how it works out. I like our chances. I still contend this one will be close and I like our kicker in close games. But, I'm a Homer for sure. I've seen our kids play all year and I like the way they play together and the way that it seems like someone different each game that steps up and above their normal performance. That is hard to defend against.

My biggest wish is that both teams come away injury-free on both sides of the ball. That is the only *real* important thing for Saturday. We all need to keep this *game* in perspective. It's still a fun game when you get to the bottom of all the chest-thumping. :rolleyes:

[gritty52]

Don't want any kid getting hurt. I watched that kicker yaw have and the kid is awesome. Hope it don't come down to him. Let's have a good one and let the gloating start late Saturday afternoon. PEACE!!!:D :D

[stinger]

PonyExpress81...your stats are great, but they play right into the hands of Trinity. There is absolutely no way that rushing is the answer against Trinity. And your passing is not in the ballpark to give them fits. Gritty is right when he talks about the Trinity linemen downfield doing pancake blocks. Look for numbers 79, 77, etc. Sometimes you will see them downfield with the back, still clearing the way. It is fun to see when a lineman has the ability to carry his weight with some agility and speed to bring fear into the hearts of defensive backs. Check out this stat: the AVERAGE size of the Trinity offensive is 50 pounds more than the largest lineman of AMC according to your website stats. Try working aginst that difference for four quarters. Better yet...ask the previous teams what it is like. It is going to be a great game, the kids will play their hearts out, the team who scores the most will win.

Most of our games our starters only played the first half so the final rushing yards could have been huge for the year.

[ACM Dad]

Y'all are just cracking me up... no reason to hype an already great game with smack. Any team can be beat. Consol can be beat, Trinity can be beat. Who makes the fewest mistakes, who capitalizes on the other's weaknesses. Both teams have them. How will each coaching staff adjust to the factors thrown at them this game? You can count on both teams coming out ready to play. All the rest of this is kinda useless speculation.

[implacable44]

Actually that is a great misinterpretation constantly being perpetuated on this board. - Salt Lake City, UTah has the most Tongans BY FAR in number - Euless - as small as it is in size might have the most per capita -- but sheer numbers is in SLC due to the fact that large portions of Tongans are Mormon. The Haka is from New Zealand not Tonga but is attributed to all polynesians -- as the prior poster mentioned.

[Butch Fifield]

This link says....

Interestingly, Euless has the largest population of Tongans anywhere in the world outside the isle of Tonga.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euless%2C_Texas

[implacable44]

This link says....



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euless%2C_Texas

wonderful -- so your link claims there are 46,005 people in Euless 1.8% of which are pacific Islander -- that is a total of 856 people. Now we now there are some Somoans here too but I will give you the benefit of the doubt and say that all 856 of them are Tongan. - Salt Lake on the other hand has a tongan population of roughly --well I suppose you want links -- here is one with data from 1999 (your link is from 2000) with 3611 tongans living in salt lake:
http://www.adherents.com/adhloc/Wh_345.html
here is one that explains that the majority of Tongans live in Los Angeles or Salt Lake City :
http://mike-munita.squarespace.com/mike-munita-all-about-tonga/
here another of the same information and detailing the 37% of them are mormon:
http://www.yakscorner.com/stories/people_tongans.htm
http://www.migrationinformation.org/Profiles/display.cfm?ID=198


again - per capita it is euless - as a whole is is Salt Lake and Los Angeles (specifically East Palo Alto I believe)

Are you guys really arguing about who has the most Tongans? :)

That is awesome!

WildCat Fan - You need to be more focused on your on problems (Plano vs SLC) because there is whole lot better chance that your team will be turning in the football equipment on Monday morning than the ACM Tigers.

Trinity is a very good team and has had a great season at 12-1 & according to the poll they have a lot more believers on this board than we do.
But it has been that way for us throughout the playoffs, we've been blessed and we're having a blast proving all the experts wrong.

Most likely after Friday you'll probably have all the time in the world to go watch some good football, so come on down to Waco at 1:00 on Saturday.
See ya there;)

The A&M Consolidated v. Euless Trinity will be a great game...both teams are playing well and both coaches will arrive in Waco with their respective team ready to play. Waco ISD Stadium is a great venue for a game like this.

The Tigers have already won twice in Waco ISD. Do i hear the third win in the future? I dunno both teams will have to play their best, so come watch i believe it is going to be a dog fight.

I am looking forward to a classic smash-mouth football game. I am so tired of seeing nothing but spread offenses. Chuck and Duck football is what I call it.
This should be a good one.

[stinger]

This could be the game of the playoffs. Both teams are very determoined and ready. Trinity has to bring their offense, which I think will be more than adequate, and a few surprises. AMC has to bring the best defense they have ever played. Not knowing the offensive weapons of AMC, I am confident that Trinity will have the answers as the defense has been playing better each game. I see a hard fought game with lots of excitement.

I second that, you know all the games that are superhyped rarely live up to expectations, but this is a great matchup that is flying under the radar. Stinger I've watched AMC before and what I've see in them is what I see in us. They're a team that plays physical on both sides of the ball, the only difference is they run a very good wishbone offense.

[TheDuke]

Just wanted to shout out to the A&M team, CONGRATS ON MAKING IT SO DEEP!! Looks like the Defense has really stepped it up, Good Luck on a run at state!!

[DawgDave]

I'll stick my neck out and go with A&M.
They gave Cove all they could handle, and appear to be improving each week out.

[}THS{LaNcEr]

i've noticed a lot of people mentioning the "chubbiness" of the tongans and saying how they have their "tongues hanging out" by halftime.

but let me tell you. it is not wise to speak of what you do not know. if you've never met a tongan...if you've never been friends with a tongan...

you'll find that what you confuse as fat is muscle and you won't realize it until it has come plowing into your side at top speed.

but dont be convinced that the o-line is all tongan. dont forget jordan scoggins. gah. that kid is a monster on strength.

i would know since ive known him from 7th grade and ive seen things beyond the football field.

you say a&m is an underdog with 3-0 but which of those three was trinity?

you dont win until you win.

lol...and don't worry. i take comfort in my bias.

I second that, you know all the games that are superhyped rarely live up to expectations, but this is a great matchup that is flying under the radar.

Agreed TH03, This has all of the makings of a classic. After the haka the powhiri in this one should be something to see. Lots of serious nose pressin' on both sides of the ball when these teams meet. Let the score determine who plays for the big marble with both teams leaving the field knowing they played their best.

[old dog 45]

TONGAN

and dont forget it. :)

TongAn - won't forget it. Didn't have a clue how it was spelled. Education is most appreciated. You have my respect. Look forward to watching the MEN of Consol and Trinity go at it - TongAn or not!;)

[berkner]

6-6-06 the world will end

[hollywood]

EP Franklin was a spread team, and the secondary played pretty well, so that "if they pass they can win" argument doesnt hold water. That Trinity offense was unstoppable today. Nance went off again for 260+ yards, and that passing game was no slouch. It will be tough for anyone to stop that O from scoring.

35 points in the third quarter alone against EP Franklin ...

[TrojanHorse03]

With all due respest to El Paso Franklin, they were a weak opponent, and the team and coaching staff has said as much again with all due respect. This should be a much better game, I expect AMC to use some of their spread and no huddle offense that I've seen on tape, as well I expect them to try to create some momentum with some squib or onside kicks with that tremendous kicker they have. However what has gone unnoticed is that the Trojans defense have only allowed 1 300 yd passing game, and have created alot of turnovers when teams have gone to the air.

[berkner]

you dont even know el paso ur just trying to find an excuse that will make u think a&m can win... they arent that loosey of a team

I heard tonight that it doesn't matter which one of you win that Spring Westfield is going to Donkey Punch one you in the finals.

My money has been on Trinity and I think they will beat A&M, but can anyone tell me about this Spring Westfield group.

[TrojanHorse03]

They're a good team. Having watched them on tape they actually remind alot of...Trinity. They have better numbers passing, ours are better on the ground. IF were are both fortunate to play each other itd be a good game with a lot of people picking us to bow down. Again Westfield is a good team I just hope if we were to play them that they wouldn't think that we are sympathetic at all to the fact that they were also denied of their first title last year.

Well I just got home not to long ago and saw a preview of the SLC vs. Plano game on a replay of the news. And it wasnt until then that it hit me the reality of a 0-10 season. My point is win or lose the ENTIRE metroplex is proud of Plano for its resilient return to prominence. Good luck(most luck to Trinity:D ), and safe play for all the teams still participating in the playoffs.

Game was already over before the LAST TD. Was the defense tired the whole game??? Is your QB the ONLY weapon on the team?? I thought you guys were an option run team?? What happened to your RB's production?? Why was the O-line not blocking for them?? A lot more went wrong with your team than the QB not being there!! Try again with the excuses!!!:rolleyes: Better yet just say good game to AMC and the better team won on last Saturday and move on!!

[ACM Dad]

Game was over before it was played some say. The loss of your QB might have had a huge effect on your teams mental state for sure. But, put that yoke of blame squarely on the Head Coach's shoulders. If this was as devastating a blow as every Berkner fan claims, then shame on your Coach for not having a backup QB ready to play for this or any game. How do you go into the playoffs with only one kid that can play QB?

On the other hand, maybe your backup QB was a decent enough player that our defense just man-handled? In this instance, no real blame on the coach as your 2nd best just wasn't good enough.To deny either possibility is just foolishness to the Nth Degree.

If we lose our last game of the season (only one team doesn't), you hopefully won't see anyone from College Station whining about the fact that we were playing our 3rd string QB or that our All-District tailback was out with a torn ACL. Just is not going to happen. And if it does, you'll see the rest of us telling them to just shut up.

How can any team, including Berkner, be considered to "stink" when they make it that deep into the playoffs? I, for one, surely do not think that Berkner was a bad team at all. Quite the contrary, very good team. Bad coaching perhaps. Your coach even admitted that in the papers.

Oh well, the good news is that there is another game for us and that is the only focus of this week, specifically tomorrow. :)

also how do you expect to win when the defense is stopping the run and you dont pass at all, i think that game there was 2 passes thrown and both were incomplete
