Final 15-5a Standings ....

2 - Ridge D2
3 - Woods D1
4 - Falls D1

What happens next week?

[cyfallsbooster2]

These are going to be some very interesting matchups this week. They were all good games last year with 155A coming out of it 3-1. From the sounds of it, 155A shouldn't be expecting the same this year. A young Stony Point team from last year is back with experience and size and had been ranked #1 in the state by this website for most of the year. They only dropped from there because a very good Cedar Park team pulled an "upset" in week 9. 165A looks to be a very solid district this year.

And for the poll purposes, most of us can't vote against our district brothers.;)

[wildcat86]

As a STP fan I wish all the teams from 16-5A & 15-5A good luck next weekend but I think this year we'll split. I like the STP and Cedar Park to win @ home and I think Cy-Wood and Cy-Creek will win @ home as well. Just my opinion which ain't worth a hill of beans. From the words of legendary boxing referee Mills Lane, " Let's get in on!"

[LeanderLions3033]

So it looks like we've drawn the best team out of 15-5a. What are the strengths and weaknesses of Cy Creek? Are they a spread team, or do they run another type of offense? Do they have a balanced offense or do they run more than they pass, or vis versa even.

What I can tell you about Leander is we have solid skill position players and a very solid defensive line (although its hard for anybody to claim they have a good Dline after they just played Cedar Parks Oline). We have a sophomore rb in Ricky Harper (who apparently has a cousin that starts on Cy Creek) who has emerged as a serious homerun threat in the running game for us. We usually have a balanced offense with most of our passing coming off of play action.

CyCreek runs the wishbone & and has a HUGE fullback and tightend;)... We 15-5A fans are like Sargeant Schultze.... LOL:D

Some of the Creek fans will be along to give you more information, but I can throw a few things out for you on them.

Creek has made a very good living off the running game this season with the option. Selders is a fast rb that can get to the corners. Keeton is also a quick and elusive runner at qb. But, he also has the skills for the passing game where the dangerous target is Mitchem who can get seperation, has very solid hands and has the speed to make things happen in space. While their stats show they have mainly been relying on the run, they have the tool set and talent to take advantage in the passing game also. So they will be balanced enough to take what a defense will give them.

Their offensive line has good size and is very solid. They can move some people up front.

Thier defensive front 7 are very solid playing assignment ball. They also have good talent in the secondary.

They are talented enough and well coached enough to pose problems for just about any team out there.

This scares me a little bit. Over the last decade, the teams that have given us trouble on a consistent basis are teams that have massive Olines. Its one thing to have a good oline, its another thing to have a good oline that has an average weight of 285-290 lbs.

In my opinion, our Dline and our secondary are our two best units on either side of the ball, but Ceder Parks gameplan gave us fits last week cause they ran it down our throat (something that no team had done to us all year), and hit big plays in the passing game because our secondary had to come up closer to the the line for run support. So basically they took the two strengths of our team and completely s:Censor: on them, effectively ruining any chance we had at winning. And from what i've gathered so far, Cy Creek is 15-5a's versions of Cedar Park

Actually they are not. Everyone in their district runs a spread (rarely using a TE) so they are really a bigger version of Leander. I believe leanders d line will keep them in this game. I think Leander has what it takes to win. Our weak spot last year was we couldn't get a pass rush at all. I think Leander will.

any word on when and where you guys are playing yet?

[Beanz]

It appears to me that the Cy Creek/Leander game is the most interesting game this round. not dogging any other teams in 16 and 15, but i think most people ASSUME cedar park, sp, and cy woods will win their match ups (not guaranteed of course, just assuming). so let's look at this cy creek/leander game.

how is cy creek's defense? because that pesky harper kid from leander is shifty... and FAST! he was probably the only reason leander scored twice in the CP/LHS game (no offense to leander because you guys are solid, it just seemed that cp controlled every aspect except for Harper).

as far as offense goes, i can easily say Leander can hold their own. I have not seen Leander's defense outside of the cp game (and that is a bad match up because they had to go against cp's o line and that is not an easy task). im not sure who has the upper hand in this one, to be honest.

i mean, i said i am bias for 16-5A, but im also trying to be realistic. cy creek has been running their district this season, but leander was actually closer to the top than their "3rd Spot" implies.

so i guess this will come down to who gets the stop and then scores one the ensuing drive.

[cyfallsbooster2]

How about just commenting on Falls. There is plenty of dtat about every team on the web. Please don't spoon feed Leander info about our team.:eek:

And what, you think the Leander coaches are going to come here to get thier game plan together? Off of MY information?:laugh

Creek is a solid team. It is difficult to hide that from the coaches.

The 165 schools are going to be difficult for our district. They actually play defense over there. Look at last year's results. We may have won 3 of 4 of the wars, but the offensive stats and scoring were below what our teams produced during district play. From the sounds of it, they are going to be even better this year. It could very well be the ONLY test our teams face in these playoffs. Since none of us went undefeated, we have shown ourselves to be vunerable. This is not going to be easy for any of our teams.

[rrspfanintx]

i think they will split the games at 2-2.RRSP and Cedar Park will win from 16-5A IMHO.

[cyfallsbooster2]

Actually, I think it is only 3 games worth. I may be wrong about that though. And I am not sure if it is the last 3 games or 3 games of the coach's choice.

730 Friday night at Bible. Gotta love it! Come on out!

[lionsfb11]

in order for our Lions to win I think we need a little more balance on offense especially the passing game to keep the defense for crowding the line. I think our defense is good enough to hold a running attack, it is the passing I am worried about.

I think Cedar Park will need to throw the ball a little more to be successful

[STPFootball2011]

It's all good.. There will be a bunch of us over at the palace rootin' for you guys.

Good luck Leander and Westwood as well!!

[LeanderLions3033]

Cedar Park did a nice job of shutting down our wr/rb Jon Henderson. Hes gotta have a big (or at least play to his average on the year) for Leander to have success IMO. Anytime hes on the field, he's usually the fastest player out there.

Also, and i didn't think this would be something that i would have to bring up since all year he played outstanding, but our qbs Chase Keltgen and Collin Chapman are gonna have to do a better job of protecting the ball. You could tell Keltgen was telegraphing his passes all night, and Chapman seemed like he was being a little careless with the ball. I expect them to play well though. They've played well all year, and got a bit of a wakeup call against Cedar Park but i think they'll be fine. I know Gideon was in their ears all week too so that can only help ;).

And Beanz,
I always point this out to people and i almost think its funny now. Leander was the 1st team in the district to start using the spread offense and had instant success. Now every team has made the switch. I think it would be interesting to see a team go back to a traditional I-formation team, or even a wishbone team, because i think the defensive coordinators in this district are starting to get used to scheming against the spread.

i definitely think sp needs an i-form approach for sure. they have too many options to pass up what the i-form offers.

i mean, you could have sam kelley run a hb pitch to the weak side of an i-form twin wr and it's over. he could follow his blockers and sprint untouched like he normally does... this way is just easier.

not to mention, the receiving packages in the i-form are unreal. especially if you have a qb that can scramble when the secondary is in man coverage.

now that you mention it, WHY DOESN'T SP USE THE I-FORM?!

have you seen our o-line? not really built for blocking out of the I. there alot better in space then doubling a bunch of d-lineman all night. also i dont know if we have a true fullback we could put in the backfield. if anyone could run I cedar park could with the massive o-line they have.

If Ricky Harper is related he must be a pretty good player. His cousin has played great this year for Creek on defense, but if he runs anything like his other cousin DJ Harper - he will be fun to watch. DJ tore up Houston area defenses for 3 years for Cy-Creek before getting a full ride at Boise State where he has played the last 3 years. He was leading Boise State in rushing before his season ending knee surgery.

Sounds like Leander has some tremendous athletes - Creek has their work cut out for them this week.

Unfortunately I wont be able to make it to this game because I have to work, but ive heard great things about this stadium. In fact, i heard it was quite possibly the best high school venue in the state of Texas, so its unfortunate that i cant go because i could just stay with my friend that lives in the Cypress area.

Also, whoever you were talking about is his cousin. Id always heard Ricky Harper was related to DJ Harper of Bosie St, so im sure we are thinking about the same person. I wonder how often something like this works out, where somebody can say they made a solo tackle on their 1st cousin that lives over 200 miles away.

[Beanz]

you realize whoever wins this round will have to play klein collins... and then John Tyler... AND THEN CEDAR PARK!!! (oh yeah)

[PCW Cats]

I think Cy Falls will give Stony Point a challenge. Falls is a young team that really struggled early on, but they are playing really well right now. They outplayed Cy Woods and earned their way in. I also am afraid of Westwood as a Cy Woods fan. They also were playing well down the stretch. Those types of teams are dangerous.

Disagreed - Woods lost a game in the closing seconds to a highly focused and athletic team last week. Sometimes a loss is good for a team. Not sure this game will be close.

I think of all 4 games this one has the potential of being the least competitive. Westwood beating Cedar Park tells you not to take them lightly. But that's one of those weird things that happens almost every year. For some reason they are up for our game and we aren't. I'm not sure how competitive WW will be, but I know they'll play their hearts out like they did against us.

[cyfallsbooster2]

[B]

Agreed - Falls will come to play and play hard.

They run a chance of coming out flat after that highly emotional game and win last week. It will be up to the coaches to help the team focus this week. SP is loaded with talent that is well coached. They are averaging something like 8 PAPG and 30 PPG. That is a stout defense. And they have been doing that against spread offenses. I am sure the boys will make us proud no matter what the outcome is.

[StonyPoint]

As a Stony Point fan I can't help but wonder who I should watch from falls? Who are falls big playmakers?

SP has alot of talent but I will give you my opinion of who you should watch.

on D:

#91-Jordan Wade-DL
#2-Kevin White-CB(I think he is the best/disciplined/consistant player for SP)
#14-Desmond Martin-DB
#40-PL lindley-LB

(those guys are the college recruits, but honestly the entire defense does great. Watching them as a whole is fun for me.)

on O:

#5-Gerard Shillow-WR/TE
#17-Aaryn Sharp-QB(if he is healthy)

(the offense has alot of skill players they switch in and out the entire game so your focus will most likely not be on specific players. Get a program if you can. Lastly, I guess, just know that almost anyone who gets the ball for SP will be fast enough for a homerun, not necessarily homerun hitters, but they will be capable.)

I did exclude alot of people on my "to watch" list

I'll say that's an understatement. :notworthy

[LION57]

This scares me a little bit. Over the last decade, the teams that have given us trouble on a consistent basis are teams that have massive Olines. Its one thing to have a good oline, its another thing to have a good oline that has an average weight of 285-290 lbs.

In my opinion, our Dline and our secondary are our two best units on either side of the ball, but Ceder Parks gameplan gave us fits last week cause they ran it down our throat (something that no team had done to us all year), and hit big plays in the passing game because our secondary had to come up closer to the the line for run support.

I agree that CP put it on us but our defense never had a chance when you have 5 turnovers 3 pics and two fumbles you have no chance to win a game. With a line the size of CPs with that many chances you will get beat every time to big and strong. A couple of those passed Henderson was wide open but threw to another reciever. They were just awful throws and believe me I am correct I have seen the film. We will be fine if we cut out the turnovers not saying we will just win it but that is how every game goes hold on to the football and you usually win.

uh yeah bro. sorry falls, he excluded two major threats on offense. so don't be surprised if you hear these names:

RB #11 Sam Kelly (practically a "where did that guy come from?!" sort of deal. He just popped up from nowhere and exploded this season. truly a beast.)
ATH #7 Stephen Williams (he has not done much this season, but this kid showed everyone up his freshman and sophomore years on varsity! seriously if you give him an inch, he will take his mile... and don't let him get into your secondary on a receiving route... that is practically an immediate 6.)

also Gus Berrera is quite handy when it comes to the qb sneak. so overall, watch out for those guys too. :D

[C-DUB]

Yes, Woods is the weak sisters of the poor from 15-5.
Should be an easy game for Westwood.

[StillBlazin]

Lets clarify what "Spread" offenses are. Most people (not the experts here) refer to the Spread as not having a TE in the game (thus, spreading the field from sideline to sideline.)

A team can be in the Gun or under center to be "Spread."

STP is a multiple formation team, as is CP. They both use a ton of inside/outside zone option reads. The QB's pull/keep read is different on different plays. Sometimes, there is a 3rd option to pitch off of after the pull. (People used to call it the TRIPLE option when Nebraska did it under center.)

GTown, Westwood are the only teams that are true spread and even they use a TE every now and again. Leander, TE, McNeil, TE, sometimes double Tight.

Leander is a counter, inside/outside zone read team.

As for 16-5A. Pretty much every team looks EXACTLY the same on offense, save for the uniforms and athletes at different positions.

They are true spread teams and I dont think a one of them EVER uses a TE....EVER.

As for whether or not being the I formation makes a differnce....its doesn't really. Two back gun can have the same effect with the added additon of a QB read off the backside of most hand off plays. Some would call this an option, others....a read.

Any hoo....just my little 2cents worth.

BTW, the reason most people in HS are in the gun is so they have the option of NOT blocking a defender and reading him instead. Thus, forcing the defense to play with 10, not 11.

But what do I know.

[Beanz]

Yes, Woods is the weak sisters of the poor from 15-5.

i don't know. westwood is really one dimensional. if you stop collins, you stop westwood.

Lets clarify what "Spread" offenses are. Most people (not the experts here) refer to the Spread as not having a TE in the game (thus, spreading the field from sideline to sideline.)

A team can be in the Gun or under center to be "Spread."

STP is a multiple formation team, as is CP. They both use a ton of inside/outside zone option reads. The QB's pull/keep read is different on different plays. Sometimes, there is a 3rd option to pitch off of after the pull. (People used to call it the TRIPLE option when Nebraska did it under center.)

GTown, Westwood are the only teams that are true spread and even they use a TE every now and again. Leander, TE, McNeil, TE, sometimes double Tight.

Leander is a counter, inside/outside zone read team.

As for 16-5A. Pretty much every team looks EXACTLY the same on offense, save for the uniforms and athletes at different positions.

They are true spread teams and I dont think a one of them EVER uses a TE....EVER.

As for whether or not being the I formation makes a differnce....its doesn't really. Two back gun can have the same effect with the added additon of a QB read off the backside of most hand off plays. Some would call this an option, others....a read.

Any hoo....just my little 2cents worth.

BTW, the reason most people in HS are in the gun is so they have the option of NOT blocking a defender and reading him instead. Thus, forcing the defense to play with 10, not 11.

But what do I know.

i disagree. with a split back shotgun you do not have the protection needed to successfully run through the line, much less to the outside. even with a QB draw, how will you suffice against a blitz, or even man coverage, when your rbs are next to you instead of inline with you?

the split back shotgun is mainly used for passing, when a defense is running an lb blitz then you can swing pass to either rb for a quick screen set up using the TE and a WR to block the safety and a CB. hopefully you throw to the rb corresponding to the side with the TE, leaving the OLB completely useless, because if you throw to the weak side rb then the safety will clean you if the OLB doesn't. aside from that, you can easily do button hooks and various routes with your TE, RBs, and WRs... or the qb can scramble if he needs to... but not many ground options though.

the i form is better, you can successfully run the ball however you choose because you have sufficient blocking. then, when it comes to passing, you have a swing pass to either your rb or fb and easy blocking from your TE and WR... especially if you use an I Form Twin WR... of course if you only want to use your two wrs and a te for the receiving ends and use your rb and fb for blocking or misdirection, then you can run a slant pattern also.

as for not blocking the defenders and letting them by, that is usually only for screens and shuffle passes. other than that you are looking for a hook from a TE or an inside route from a WR. either way, you are trying to clear the LBs from stopping the quick catch and go... but you will still have to deal with the safeties.

I have heard he's similiar to our Cy-Creek Selders but not as fast.

He's currently a more complete back that Selders, but not quite as fast in the open field.

[Beanz]

I have heard he's similiar to our Cy-Creek Selders but not as fast.

haha. no, he is definitely not as fast as selders. but he is much bigger than selders is. his speed is sufficient for what he can do with his size. he is somewhat the middle ground of Adrian Smith (our district's huge runningback) and Selders (your district's speed back). he is a weapon if you cannot stop a wildcat formation, but he is beatable if your LBs are in zone coverage.

my suggestion is not to blitz, but to wait for westwood to make the first move. otherwise westwood can catch you off guard with their wildcat formation

[cfisdbacker]

Wow ..... he must be pretty good. Is he a senior?

[CAKEETO]

Interesting observation. Not being argumentative, but what makes him more of a complete RB than Selders?

[Beanz]

Interesting observation. Not being argumentative, but what makes him more of a complete RB than Selders?

selders does not have the size to match up against a strong defense. he will grow more but as of now he is just speed and moves... which is definitely fine.

collins has size and adequate speed. he can break tackles and has cut back moves to keep defenses on their toes. he won't win any races, but neither would adrian smith and i think he is up for our district mvp. overall, collins has more experience and selders will get there eventually.

He's bigger, he blocks well, catches well out of the backfield, has great vision, picks holes well. He's a talented and very athletic three year starter. Lots of this come with experience. It's not putting down Selders. I wish we had him. He's a stud!

I know the STP is a great team, but I would not disccount Falls. Falls has speed, and a solid OL. The kids at Falls are pumped and ready to ball out. Because they have so many young players making significant contributions, they aren't caught up in STP's reputation or ranking. Speed always has an impact, and Falls has lots of speed.

So the coaches don't talk to other coaches and watch video??? Gee they sure used to. Nothing is a secret at this point.

[CyFallsMom]

yeah are you kidding me lol. No coach or player is gonna get on a message board to get a random fans opinion about a team. Nobody.....

They have game film on us from all year im sure, and our coaches have they're game film from all year. I think thats spoon feeding enough.

at first i was thinking at best it will be 3-1 but now i am seeing some light.

westwood might actually have more of a chance than i initially thought.

it seems to me, if leander can show cy creek what a defense looks like, then they will win their game as well.

I like that way of thinking. Nothing gets 15-5a going better than being tagged the underdog. I'm dead serious about that. They don't take well to dissing or being looked past....trust me, it's a good thing for the Cy's. ;)

Enough with the smack talking, lets get right to the predictions! I see these two districts splitting the 4 games this year.

Leander vs Cy Creek: Both teams have good defenses but even better offenses. This will be a high scoring affair and will come down to who has the lead late in the 4th quarter and can make a critical defensive stop (similar to Cedar Park vs Cy Creek last year). Cy Creek by 3 in a nail biter

Westwood vs Cy Woods: The key to beating Westwood is stopping Princeton Collins. Westwood will hang with Woods for the first half but Woods will pull away in the second half. Cy Woods by 14

Cy Ridge vs Cedar Park: As long as Cedar Park comes out and establishes the run early, they should win with ease. If they come out flat and let Ridge hang around, their season could be shorter than expected. Cedar Park by 17

Cy Falls vs Stony Point: Should be pretty one sided. Playing Stony Point is hard enough as it is, but add in the facts of having to sit on a bus for 3 hours and play in front of a rowdy Stony Point crowd. I dont see Falls standing a chance. Stony Point by 35

In other words, home field advantage is crucial in these 1st round games.

I would love to hear some other predictions! :)

I don't understand Beanz big talk. His mouth is writing a check that his :Censor: will have to cash. I could see if CP was defending state champs, but we sent CP back on 290 last year, and are not even playing CP this year. CP is a great team, but I'm not feeling Beanz at all.:confused::confused:

big talk? bro im studying opponents and stats. not big talk, just prediction. leander has a well set up defense. i never said that cy creek could not beat them, i said cy creek will have a hard time with them compared to other teams cy creek has played. in fact, in another post i said that no one questions cy creek's offense. i just question whether their defense can keep them in the game, simply because leander has a high powered offense as well.

to me, that is a legitimate question.

i said it once and i will say it again, if i was trying to start something then i would have. plain and simple. if it sounds like i am talking big then it might just be the way i write, but i assure you i am not talking big... especially not for leander. they're our rivals.

[cyfallsbooster2]

Where did I say they would?:confused:

Falls is coming into this game with a 5-5 record on the year. They made it into the po's with a herculean effort in the Woods' game. They are a young team in a re-building year that has proven to have its ups and downs. They are improving (vastly from last year) and yes we are excited for them. The few seniors that they do have have been fantastic in leading the younger guys this year. They are playing hard and with passion and are making us fans proud of them. Do we think they will make us proud in this game? Yes. No matter the outcome or score. I think they have proven something to themselves that is a valuable life lesson just by making the po's from where they started at the first of the season. For any of us to come on here thumping our chest saying Falls is "going" to win would be a little silly don't you think? Its a game yet to be played and I believe they stand a chance and I will back them as I have for years in their efforts.

So what's the line on the Westwood/Woods game? I know that Woods is pretty solid in all aspects of the game. Good talent that is very well coached. Good size and very good speed on both sides of the ball. They have a qb that manages the offense very well. What does Westwood bring?

Westwood has a D1 running back going to Utah, a very good offensive line that's almost all returning starters from last year, a solid QB. Defensively they are just very solid. I wouldn't call them incredible on the athletic side, but they are fundamentally sound and aggressive.

I'd put the line at Woods by 10, but honestly Westwood is capable of winning this game.

Woods does have a few talented players but their main key is playing as a team. I think that is what makes them successful. This sounds like it could be a very good game.

One of Creeks 2 D1 offensive tackles is going to Utah (other to Stanford) will be blocking for him someday!!!

It playoffs and anything can happen but ........Cy-Woods is very solid, well coached, and should have a pretty good scheme to defense the RB. Watch their Def back- he is amazing and unbelievably fast - not sure where he is going but he should be recruited heavily. One of the best players in 15-5a.

I had the privilege of seeing falls play this year. Very good young team. They play hard and get after you. But, if we are talking speed, their speed does not match up to Stony Point speed very well. Falls has some speed on offense but their defensive speed does not compare to Stony Points Offensive speed.
i think it will be a better game than most expect. But in the end, like you said; speed always has an impact and Stony Point has way to much for Falls

The kids will have to play mistake free assignment football to try and contend with that speed and then be aggressive. If they sit and wait it will be like backing up on a ground ball......it will eat you up.

i do not know where the root of it comes from. there are different black rain definitions like a fallout from a nuclear bomb, the ozzy song black rain, and of course cedar park wears black uniforms at home so i guess that comes into play as well.

honestly i have not looked into it, i just think it sounds cool.

yup, that round rock game killed us haha.

[cyfallsbooster2]

Not in this game. Stony will be way too much for Falls, especially at home.

Maybe so for this young Falls team. Most everyone felt they had no chance against Woods last week also. But, they pulled together and proved a few nay sayers wrong. Maybe they can create another miracle this week. But either way it goes, it will be a great experience for the seniors who have not been part of a playoff game and great experience for the underclassmen who will be back next year. I still believe they have a chance.;)

[Airstrike]

you and sp head coach chessher are in agreement there. after the sp/cp game chessher said he did not know why hogan is not a starter, but he would start him.

That was a dumb comment by Chessher and a real insult to Nathan and his own QBs. Right now, Hogan is an up and coming QB who happens to be very elusive running the ball. The downside with that is that he makes CP terribly one-dimensional on offense. That can only work so long until teams learn how to take that away or the law of averages catches up to him and he gets hurt. Understanding reads, being able to throw the ball downfield when called upon, getting stronger, etc., are still things he must develop to be a quality QB and with proper coaching, he can get there. No way other 16-5A teams start him over their starters. In essence, he is more of CP's version of the Wildcat because you can bet the farm he's running the ball on virtually every snap, just as RBs do in the Wildcat. Didn't he have something like 60 carries in 2 games when Nate was out? And wasn't CP 1-1 during that stretch, beating Stony Point but losing to Westwood? Yikes!:eek:

I didn't expect last weeks loss would turn into a "Battle Cry" for Falls.
like "Remember the Alamo" or something.:(

[- sTp -]

This is one area where they haven't been very consistant if you ask me. If they had Cedar Park's Oline no one could beat them, but the line the have is good, not great.

From what I understand, SP made some massive changes to the O-line about 48 hours before the CP game, hence the "newness" of their play. They have come together in the last couple of weeks and have helped pop off a couple of LONG touchdowns in the last two games.. Heck, they even pulled one off against CP late in the game.

They aren't monsters by any stretch, but they are athletic and well coached.

hogan had a very nice come back in that game.

you realize that if cedar park had won that game, then Hogan would have beaten the highest ranked opponent cedar park has ever played AND had the largest come back cedar park has ever faced AND claimed the outright district title for cedar park ALL within his first three games as a starter!!! now that would be something to put on a resume.

It's hard to argue with the kid's success, but I gotta tell you, from an outsider's standpoint, I would not feel comfortable with him being my full time starter in that kind of offense. I mean, the kid is only 150, and that is soaking wet. I saw him breaking tackles in the Leander game highlights, and I don't see how he is not crushed. The odds are not good for that to continue for him. Mass usually wins out in the end.

so true though. i guess it is just his "slippery" factor... either that or he is invisible when he turns sideways and the defenders cannot see him. but give it an off season and he will be ready i think. if anything, he definitely needs to develop a strong arm so cp does not have to switch in posey on every third and long situation.

[RRISDFAN]

Two Points.

1 - Everyone has a chance. To say someone has no chance is crazy. RRSP fans can tell you about being underdogs the last two years. You don't beat Woods and not have a chance.

2- That Hogan kid has as much heart as anyone I have seen play all year. He has my vote for MVP. From what I can tell the only person that has stopped him all year is the CP coach.

that's probably because you have no idea what you are talking about.

nathan is better than hogan as of this moment. hogan has a lot of heart and talent and he will be getting better and better each practice, each game, and each off season. but still, nathan is better than hogan as of now.

hogan has definitely gotten a lot of experience these last three games. he knows what it is like to defeat a heavily favored team... he knows what it is like to hurry an offense for a fourth quarter come back... he knows what it is like to get upset... he even knows what it is like to defeat his rival team and get a district champ title.

however, he does not have the arm to be able to beat the coverage. he does not have the size to run up the middle and pound his way into the endzone.

he is shifty and speedy. he can call zone reads and get the defense mixed up so that he faces less defenders up the middle. he has good accuracy he just needs a stronger arm... all of these things he will get better and better at in time. but right now nathan is ahead of him in these aspects, so nathan will start until coach ross thinks nathan is risking too much.

if you remember, at the beginning of the season everyone said nathan thornhill had a terribly inaccurate arm... now he has worked on it and got it down for the most part. hogan will mold somewhat the same way.

Beanz I did not watch much of CP listen to a couple of the last games so you might be right. You can't argue about Hogan's heart. I do take it as a complement when YOU tell me I don't know what I am talking about.:D I am glad I stirred you up for a change.:D Good Luck I will be listening to your game but I will be at the Palace.

Wasn't saying he didn't do a good job for his relative inexperience. Just he isn't the guy just yet, but it will come. Thought it was interesting CP had to use a trick play and let a WR throw the ball 50+ yards on that comeback try. WR to WR...don't see that very often!

Thornhill is BY FAR the best QB on Cedar Park's team and frankly I think in the district. He was leading the district in TD's (13) before he got hurt. He would have ended the year with over 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 yards passing if he hadn't gotten hurt against Vista. He almost did anyway even though he's basically missed three games. He's the complete package, passing, running, option, leadership, all of it. And he did this not playing a varsity snap in his life and not playing football for two years.

Hogan has a very unique skill set and is going to be a holy terror next year. He is a holy terror running the ball this year too, but just needs a year of experience and weight room work to develop into the package that Thornhill is today.

[Leather Head]

Question for those who will be attending the 'Wood vs Woods game: How will you know which team to root for? Don't let anybody get on the wrong bus.

Round Rock ISD is opening a new HS next year named "Cedar Ridge". Very original name. Not to be confused with other schools in the district named: Ridge View, Cedar Park, Vista Ridge, Cedar Valley, Park Ridge, Cedar View, Ridge Park, and Vista Valley Park View on Brushy Creek

[CFISDFootballFan]

I loved watching the Ridge/Falls games. I think they are 3-3 against each other. :notworthy
Now its time for both to show what they can do outside the district.

Just kidding, C-Dub is Woods #1 fan and a great guy. I probably am not qualified to answer your question Beanz since I've only seen about 4 of Woods games this year, and every time I watched them they didn't have any obvious weekness in their game. IMO, they have some very gifted athletes on both sides of the ball. If you get to the game, watch Bryce Callahan #4 for Woods on defense and special teams (No, I'm not his dad). He is a ball hawk on defense, and if opposing teams actually kick the ball to him he more often than not makes them pay. With all that said, C-Dub can give you a better break down of Woods.:)

bobcatfan is right. Woods does not have any glaring weaknesses. They are very solid in all aspects of the game. Solid, not outstanding, just solid. They do have a few really bright spots like the Callahan kid he mentioned. Also, there is a receiver of theirs that is really a very quite stud. Wish I could remember his name. Huntsman, the qb, really makes the offense click by spreading the ball out to all the playmakers very well. I guess the biggest weakness they may have had early in the season were a few of the young ones putting the ball on the ground, but they seem to have corrected that.

One thing I can say is that win or lose against this team, your defense is going to be exhausted from chasing these guys all over the field. They are everywhere.....like flys!:D

The admins are picking 16-5a to go 3-1 over 15-5a in their predictions, with Leander losing to Cy Creek being the lone loss for the district. Ever since Coach Gideon has been at Leander we are 6-0 in 1st round playoff games, so hopefully we can pull our weight for the district so we can bust out the brooms ;)

that is why it is so hard for me to choose cy creek.

i definitely agree that cy creek has an amazing offense, but in my mind it is hard to say gideon will lose first round... no matter who leander plays.

leander might very well lose this game because their opponent is very potent, but it is just weird to think about... especially since leander is like cp's big brother. you want to beat them, but you do not want anyone else to beat them.

Didn't know about the 6-0 record. (But how many of those 6 wins were when the Lions were a 3 or 4 district seed?)

I pretty much based my picks (except for SP) on how the teams were playing the last few games of the season.

3 times out of the 6. In 03 and 04 we were apart of a 3 way tie for district champions with all 3 teams going 6-1(this was back when only 3 teams made the playoffs). Because of how big our school was at the time we would always be in the division 2 bracket and in these two years the other team in that bracket was the lone team that beat us in the district, so were matched up with 13-5as 1st place team two years in a row (Copperas Cove in 03 and a Ramonce Taylor led Belton squad in 04). Then in the 07-08 season (the year we beat Cedar Park in the final game of the year when it was a winner makes playoffs, loser goes home game) we finished either 3rd or 4th, im not sure. So it's been done before.

And my response to whats in bold
Thats why im a little anxious to see which team shows up on friday. Because up until the Cedar Park game, we had gotten a little better, and a little more consistent each game. We simply ran into matchup problems with Cedar Park and thats what football is all about, how your individual units match up with the opposing teams. How does your Oline and rbs match up with the opposing teams front 7. How does your wr's and qb matchup with their secondary and vis versa. Im not saying we'll win the game because i know nothing about Cy Creek, but if the Leander shows up like they did from weeks 4-9 they should be a tough team to beat.

The chatter on this board is very similar to last year...when most posters from 16-5a thought they would shut-out 15-5a or go 3-1. Result 1-3.

Now I'm not saying that 15-5a will dominate 16-5a but I will say that the most likely scenario is a 2-2 split...Just my opinion having not seen any of the 16-5a games. I suspect that virtually none of the posters from 16-5a have seen any 15-5a games and vice versa. I'm unaware of any common opponants.

Absent any further concrete information than last years results, wouldn't logic dictate 15-5a is at least as competitive as 16-5a? Just sayin...

Anyway, I'm a Cy-Woods supporter and I like our chances...

I would say your generally right about most posters not having seen each others teams. I believe it could be 3-1 us, 2-2 or 3-1 you. In order of least likely to lose to most likely to lose from our district is Stony, Cedar Park, Leander, Westwood. Having said that every single team, both ours and yours, has a chance this weekend. A REAL chance. These are two really good districts that have put 4 solid teams in the playoffs.

I know it wasn't easy and it could have gone either way on several of the wins. I'm just saying some posters get on with an air of superiority that is unwarranted (either way I might add).

Generally, I think Stony Point is the most likely to win (though Falls has some phenominal young talent - they will likely be the favorite next year). After that the rest of the games are harder to call.

I quit the specific predictions after we got blown out by Lake Travis in week three. ;)

I'm guessing Westwood would run a ball control offense?

[Hellhound]

Chatter dude here. :D

The chatter on this board is very similar to last year...when most posters from 16-5a thought they would shut-out 15-5a or go 3-1. Result 1-3.

Now I'm not saying that 15-5a will dominate 16-5a but I will say that the most likely scenario is a 2-2 split...Just my opinion having not seen any of the 16-5a games. I suspect that virtually none of the posters from 16-5a have seen any 15-5a games and vice versa. I'm unaware of any common opponants.

Absent any further concrete information than last years results, wouldn't logic dictate 15-5a is at least as competitive as 16-5a? Just sayin...

Anyway, I'm a Cy-Woods supporter and I like our chances...

Someone asked for picks & i gave picks. & I'm a FG away from a 2-2 split.

fwiw.....I think SP is a legit final 4 team. I like the way CP plays smashmouth football & their experience. Westwood is as close to a home team that I've got & i like the way they come back (& their intangibles).

But I could be 0-4 with Leander being the only winner. (doubt it though....I think SP goes several rounds)

sp will have to play the woodlands AT THE WOODLANDS if they both win this week.

C-DUB!!! the famous one. you have no idea how confusing this thread has been with cy woods = c dub and you actually being c dub.


alright. westwood is a ball control offense to the max. they run the wildcat with princeton collins and their qb as a second attack mostly. you will not see much passing from them unless you stop collins... however, if you stop collins, you stop westwood.

i don't want to sound like a sell out, but since coaches are not searching through this site trying to learn how to beat each other, i can tell you the best way to beat westwood. the best way is to run a 4-3 Free Fire blitz THE WHOLE GAME. collins won't be able to do anything if you force him to the middle where your lbs meet up in this set up.

westwood likes running fake handoffs and counters off of the side of the RG/LG, but they rarely run straight up the middle. with a free fire blitz you can force him to the center, or tackle him for a loss. either way you can make him a non factor. then the quarterback will have to come in with fakes and what not, but a free fire blitz does not have any holes in it for the qb to scramble... so he will be stuck having to use his arm.

this is what stony point did to them, and westwod only had about 20 total yards rushing the whole game! when cedar park caught on to westwood's schemes and figured out how to stop them, they completely shut collins down and westwood couldn't do anything for the majority of the third and fourth quarters (even though it was already too late). westwood ended up with negative passing yards and less than 200 total yards... most of those yards came from the first half.

all in all, if you shut down westwood's run game, then you will win... but that might be a big IF because no team from 15-5A has seen westwood.

[cyfallsbooster2]

I know it wasn't easy and it could have gone either way on several of the wins. I'm just saying some posters get on with an air of superiority that is unwarranted (either way I might add).

Generally, I think Stony Point is the most likely to win (though Falls has some phenominal young talent - they will likely be the favorite next year). After that the rest of the games are harder to call.

I agree.

#6 Isaiah Battle

Yeah callahan and the QB are the 2 who stood out the most. The QB really got on a roll in the 2nd half against us. The plan was to hit him as much as possible and hope he is one of those kids that gets shaky and wears down. Obviously that plan did not work...at all. We hit him in the 1st half..and well, as the score indicated...Woods is just a well rounded team.

Falls' year doesn't come until next year or the year after. They are too young right now. I know SP is possibly going ALL the way THIS year. So their BIG challenge comes next week with the Woodlands. In my bracket challenge, I have them winning that game and moving on. Actually, I think I have them going to the state game and winning it. They can beat Woodlands. They have the physical play that they don't.

[cyfallsbooster2]

Depends on the injury report. If the starters are good to go, they are tough. Otherwise teams can take advantage of them, as Falls did, when Ridge's D was in injury mode.

Weekend predictions .... Playoff football - does it get any better than this!

Looks like a 15-5a sweep!

D-1: Stony Point vs Cy Falls - :D Upset special of the week - Falls beats SP in high scoring game with a field goal off the lime green shoe of it's place kicker in the closing seconds. 44-43

D-1: Westwood vs Cy Woods - Cy-Woods is primed for playoff action and will keeps its high powered offense rolling. The defense will contain Westwood running back and create turnovers. Special teams for Woods will also score. Woods win 42-21

D-2: Cedar Park vs Cy Ridge - Two physical teams playing each other. This will be a defensive struggle with Cy-Ridge winning 21-17

D-2: Leander vs Cy Creek - This will be a close game through the 1st half, but Creek big offense and defense lines take charge in the in the 2nd half - Creek wins 35-21

Good luck to ALL teams and may all play hard and finish the game healthy. Your communities are proud of you!

Safe travels to all the teams, bands, cheerleader, drill teams, and fans going back and forth on 290.

Wouldn't a sweep be special.:D However, I think the 165A schools are stronger this year than they even were last year. And I don't think we will have the element of surprise this time around. They have seen what our offenses can do in this district and will be prepared for it this time around. There is always a chance though.;)

If Cy-Falls were to pull off that score, they could certainly be very proud. Chessher's teams have given up 40+ only four times since he became HC in 2004, and only once in the last 42 games.

I dont wanna take anything away from what you guys did last year, but outside of SP the district was VERY down last year. The year before we had all 4 teams from our district (besides SP) go at least 3 rounds deep in the playoffs with Leander losing to Longview, Round Rock losing to Allen in the 4th round and Pville losing to Katy in the state championship. This year looked like it might be a down year for the district at the beginning of the year, but after seeing all 4 teams that made the playoffs this year, it won't be anything like what we did 2 and 3 years ago but it will be a bigtime feat if 15-5a pulled off the sweep this year.

[ThePoint]

Falls' year doesn't come until next year or the year after. They are too young right now. I know SP is possibly going ALL the way THIS year. So their BIG challenge comes next week with the Woodlands. In my bracket challenge, I have them winning that game and moving on. Actually, I think I have them going to the state game and winning it. They can beat Woodlands. They have the physical play that they don't.

I appreciate your confidence and we honestly have the talent to go a long way. We have had a huge target on our back all year (thanks mostly to the polls and last years success) and we have not dealt with it really well (still 9-1, but could have played much more focused). I am really hoping that somewhere there is a switch that the boys flip now and say - this is what we've been waiting for - the playoffs - time to prove it on the field, etc, etc. I guess we will see if that "switch" exists starting Friday night.
I know for the Dallas Cowboys last year - the switch didn't work and that is my fear with this team.
On a side note - sTp really feels like next year is their big year from a talent and size standpoint. Most of the key players on offense are Jr's, although we will lose quite a few Sr's on Defense. I guess the magic comes when you have a year when both offense and defense peak during the same year. Last year it was a strong offense with a younger defense.
Look forward to seeing you at the Palace.

As a 15-5a supporter I like CFISDBACKER's enthusiasum, but I suspect a split is more likely. End of the day, it doesn't matter what we think, nor what anyone thinks (aside from the players), performance matters. It is kind of fun to speculate about. Most of us don't know enough to make a good informed decision about the games. I certainly don't, that's why I have not made a specific prognostication (that and I don't want to eat crow if I'm wrong!).

After thinking about it - probably lots of people could say the same about their team. :D Oh Well.
One thing that will help is that it seems we are getting healthier at the right time as well, getting some of our starters back from pre and mid season injuries, but the danger is whether or not it will disupt the rhythm like it did vs Cedar Park (three of five O line were in new positions).
Hopefully a good strong week of practice will alleviate this issue.
I really am looking forward to the game and the Eagles wide open offense- I'm sure it will be fun to watch!:)
I listened to part of your last game vs woods - really impressive passing and mix in of running. Despite the high score, it sounded like the D really stepped up at the end! :notworthy

[lefty01]

I do think what we really have going is the consensus is 16-5A seems to view their district as more competitive than ours. I really, don't think many have a district that just out does ours in term of competition. There were a lot of pick em' type games this yr.

BINGO!! In last week's game against RR there were very few penalties. Maybe two against SP? That was promising. Now lets hope that carries through with a double dose of the fire of desire.

That really helps with the po run. In 2006 Falls finished the regular season with a 6-4 record (I believe) due to several injuries. But, they all were heathly when the po's started. From there, they made a pretty good run.:D

The defense in the Woods' game had their best game of the year in my opinion which they had to do just to try and slow the potent Woods offense down just a little. At the end, yes they did turn it up even more and came up with 2 BIG stops to get things going Falls' way.:notworthy

[smw358]

i did not say that collins will always break tackles i said he CAN break tackles. does anyone play defense in 15-5A? who has the best points against average over there?

No. We skip that part of the game because it is so boring.

Don't you know..........the quicker they (15-5A) let you score......the quicker they (15-5A) can score..........:D It works out in the end.....you know it's a numbers thingy.......:rolleyes:

Yeah. If you let the other team grind out the clock you don't get as many touches on offense. So we all run different variations of the ole' defensive scheme.:D:ninja:

[twolf5]

Yeah. If you let the other team grind out the clock you don't get as many touches on offense. So we all run different variations of the ole' defensive scheme.:D:ninja:

That's going to be a big factor in our game with Ridge. Over the last two games opposing offenses had less than 45 plays per game against our D and less than 200 yards total offense. Attributed to two things. Us having the ball 80 snaps on offense for 450 yards, and our D being pretty good.

Can't we just play this tonight? I'm ready!!!!!:cool:

Ridge does not have a Sheppard or Lipscum this year so they are not quite as explosive as last year. But, if their defense is healthy enough, they can be a tough game.

OK I'm going to handicap the games like this.

Cedar Park -10 over Ridge
Cy Creek -3 over Leander
Cy Wood -10 over Westwood
Stony Point -14 over Falls

Meet you back here Saturday night and we'll see what happens. I can't wait for these matchups. There will be some exciting football tomorrow and Saturday.

I think these are pretty close (I hope your right about sTp especially:D).
I noticed that 2 of the three site administrators picked WW over CyW:confused:.
I wonder what they know that we don't (no offense to my RRISD friends:)).
Since I have only seen WW I can only go by district rankings and some stat's - but I would have expected the admin's to lean towards CyW.
Perhaps the speed of WW and supposedly a better "D" is expected to create problems?

The admin's are anti-Cy teams.:D We probably dropped in the polls since
we let Falls in the playoff. lol!! trolling!! trolling!!:ninja:

I sure hope that one tilts the other way. Either way should be a great game. I think that we will have a few suprises up our sleeves.;)

I watched our game against Creek last year and your defense is SOOOOO much better than what we played them with last year. We had so many missed tackles and zero pass rush all night. We had a totally makeshift defensive line. Ya'll won't have that this year. I won't be shocked one bit if you win.

[cfisdbacker]

As a 15-5a supporter I like CFISDBACKER's enthusiasum, but I suspect a split is more likely. End of the day, it doesn't matter what we think, nor what anyone thinks (aside from the players), performance matters. It is kind of fun to speculate about. Most of us don't know enough to make a good informed decision about the games. I certainly don't, that's why I have not made a specific prognostication (that and I don't want to eat crow if I'm wrong!).

I am hoping for a sweep of course - but realize it most likely will not happen either way. CFISD know they are playing some great teams with great traditions and look forward to the challenge.

here's mine... just don't get upset. i am simply being honest.

Cedar Park: 28 CY Ridge: 17
Leander: 24 Cy Creek: 35
Westwood: 21 Cy Woods: 31
Stony Point: 42 Cy Falls: 10

i am basing these pics off of what i understand between each team's strengths and weaknesses.

15-5A people. the ridge and falls scores are not meant to be insulting.

i feel that cedar park will eat the clock and score once a quarter, forcing either a couple turnovers or a couple stops in order to contain cy ridge under 20.

as far as stony point goes, they are stingy when it comes to allowing points, and their secondary has sticky fingers. their defense is very hard to overcome on the ground or through the air, while their offense is loaded with talent that no one has fully contained. even cedar park had some mismatches that could have given sp 6 if sp did not have so many false starts.

16-5A people. do not get upset that i chose woods and creek over westwood and leander.

cy creek has a high powered offense this year much like last. the difference is, all the playmakers (except qb austin pugliese) are still present from last year... and now they are older. leander's defense is strong, but if cy creek poses any o line threat (much like cedar park did), then leander will have to quickly adjust to it and contain the clock better than they did on cedar park. to be fair, i only gave cy creek one td per quarter and then another one for turnovers or an unexpected "big play" that they are certainly capable of achieving. leander will have to pass a lot more efficiently than they did against cedar park to keep up with cy creek, and frankly i do not see that happening.

westwood is too one dimensional to rack up many points on cy woods. if cy woods contains collins, then this will be a long game for westwood (much like the stony point game). overall, i gave westwood 3 touchdowns. i feel that princeton collins will suffice for two and then westwood will have to pass or qb sneak their way in for the third. it should be close up until the fourth quarter.

all in all, i obviously want a 4-0 streak for 16-5A, but i have a hard time seeing that happen.

Kind of a cool Cy-Creek thing ...... after every game - it happenned when we were 0-8 in district or 8-0 in district ......hundreds of Cougar fans gather after the game at Del Pueblo. The players come into the restaurant after the game and get cheered and standing ovations. The ENTIRE restaurant is Cy-Creek colors! All the staff have Cy-Creek teeshirts on . A great community deal. We talk about the game amomgst ourselves and the players and with the coaches when they show up.


Go Creek! Good luck to all teams that play

[twolf5]

Game day, no more posting for me. Good luck to all the teams today and tomorrow. Safe travel, play hard and stay healthy!
