I want to talk just football about these two teams...why one team will win over the other none of the past or past match ups just what each team brings to the table.

I like Allen because of the X-factor Matt Brown. This kid has figured it out since his sophomore year. He is making great decisions with the football in the air and with his legs.

Carroll does a great job of spreading the ball around to numerous receivers while still having a very nice running game if they can keep a balanced offense, Allen will have problems stopping them.

Prediction: Allen 24 SLC 20

whatever the uil rule is on completion time for a playoff game will be enforced as soon as they enforce this one:

29 3‐2‐1‐b Change to read: "The maximum intermission between halves shall be 28 minutes."

allen can't get their band on and off the field in 28 minutes. btw...it's a helluva band.

Also, there's no such thing as an unbiased thread with this huge of a game. With two evenly matched teams, every poster will say their unit is better, and nobody has seen these teams play their current form, either.

Saw a UT game a few weeks ago (don't remember which game) where late in the fourth quarter, LT's Garrett Gilbert, Allen's Dan Buckner, and SLC's Tre Newton were on the field at the same time! :notworthy

Allen has holes in it's defense. Their bulk is noticeably smaller along their Dline. Their Linebackers are still saavy and their secondary is truely outstanding, I don't know how they matchup against a great vertical attack like Carrolls but they've had some practice against it in district. I think TA will have a huge game both from a matchup perspective and one of neccessity as the strength of the Allen D is it's secondary and linebackers in coverage.

Offensively their receivers took a while to come along after Peticonis and Ngwawachaku graduated, they weren't dropping passes against our early season zone (which was far from spectacular tho, still isn't), like they did in earlier games and Brown was truely sublime. The game seemed so easy for him and it was embarrassing for a program that has prided itself in it's defense. Westerberg is classic for keeping his cards close prior to big games. He showed up with a 4-3 in the playoffs after sticking with a 3-4 in the preseason and it payed huge dividens. Their LB's are still disciplined and darn good footballers but their Dline is the weakness I feel, if we're talking about elite defenses. (they're still pretty good).

It all starts up front and both of these offensive lines will have their way with their defensive counterparts

Forget what some people say. They obviously dont know that Longview is no ordinary 4A team. Thats a team that competed quite well in 5A for a long time. So many people get stuck on the 4A, 3A etc crap. They are ill informed when they do that. Longview would be ranked in the top 15 IMO, if they were 5A.

Westerberg is a very good coach. He was at the hand of those losses as a coordinator and then head coach. He has learned well and has a staff thast makes great adjustments.

I believe the D Line is a place that Carroll can exploit with some shifty yards by Tommy and some gutty yards by Paul. The Carroll line wont break you over or plow you out of the way, but they are a technically sound group and very athletic. I also expect if David needs to run, he can get yards up the middle or some close off tackle runs.

I think our WR's will have some success, I know their DB's are very good, but our guys have some size to them..that may come into play...may not.


I think with the size and skill of the Allen O Line, it's inherent on the 3 very good Carroll LB's to stay clean, so if our D Line can just occupy a man, it will allow those 3 LB's to do their work. They will have to maintain gap control though. Again, I think they are fine if the D Line gives them clean time and looks...They are smart and quick and they hit hard and all of them have a nose for int's. The key will be containing Brown...I dont believe Carroll will shut him down, but containment is the key and no arm tackles or over pursuit will be acceptable this week.

Right on. Hold their ground or cause a pile, must keep the Allen Oline from surging in mass to the 2nd level, Key's will be good padlevel and playing low, linebackers must prove me wrong and show they can locate the ball early and avoid traffic. Containment will be huge because Brown is deceptively fast. Plus would be the ability to leave your corners on an island.

A couple things I would be worried about if I were an Allen fan (during the regular season) and knew I'd have to play SLC in the 2nd round.

1. Allen's defense is not that great. They do not force many turnovers. However, they do generally disguise their coverages well.

2. SLC has had a very good defense against the rush this year. If they can contain Mr. Brown and force him to throw the deep ball (like he likes to do), I do not think it is going to go in their favor. A couple bad throws deep and that's the ballgame. Especially against a focused Dragon squad.

3. Allen lives and dies by Brown's ability to count to 3. A couple hits and maybe his timing gets off. This could easily win the game for SLC.

The game against Wylie, I wish I could see it

Were you guys able to get pressure on Brown? I thought it was a huge mistake for Trinity, to not bring the house on 3rd and long?

Also, what makes you think Allen won't be able to run the ball? Losing Williams is obviously huge but that Oline is impressive

To tell you the truth...I dont know a whole bunch about these teams other than what I read here or little bit Ive seen on tape or highlights. I wouldnt be surprised to see either team win simply because its SLC/Allen, but I like Allens defense a little bit more than I like SLC's. 3 hours ago I liked Allens D ALOT better than I liked SLC's, but one of your own set me straight on that idea. It should be a great game and I really am pulling for you guys. I have Allen winning the D2 title...so if you beat them I guess you would have to be my pick.

To tell you the truth...I dont know a whole bunch about these teams other than what I read here or little bit Ive seen on tape or highlights. I wouldnt be surprised to see either team win simply because its SLC/Allen, but I like Allens defense a little bit more than I like SLC's. 3 hours ago I liked Allens D ALOT better than I liked SLC's, but one of your own set me straight on that idea. It should be a great game and I really am pulling for you guys. I have Allen winning the D2 title...so if you beat them I guess you would have to be my pick.

It will be a great game. Pity either team will have to exit round two. Most of us fans don't know much about Allen either but our glasses are shaded green. Guess I shouldn't be on this thread.:D

Thanks for ruining a perfectly good thread DragonBand06 and Phoenix.............. appreciate it guys......... :rolleyes:

Just ignore them as most grown-ups do. They like to show off their immaturity. They think they are funny. You know how children are. Like I said, just ignore them and they will eventually go away.

Big Southlake fan here.To be very honest I hoped Allen would go D-1 to avoid this match up in the second round. But in a play-off situation let's just get it on and see who advances. Two class programs, one will rep our region well as they move forward. Honestly I don't know what to expect other than it should be a great Texas High School football game. Good luck to all the young men.

Glad to see you picking Allen in this one because that means SLC is almost certain to win. :eek:

Your lack of logic never fails to amaze...

JMO...Allen rolls. Something like 41-21. I believe Allen and Trinity are the best teams in the state...and SLC is still a little overrated. I will be interested to see how SLC plays against only the 2nd legitimate defense they have faced all year. I'll stick with....

38-21 Allen

make allen the 3rd legitimate defense.

What would happen if the game starts at lets say 10....do you have to finish the game before 12?? Ive never been clear on this rule.

I remember in 2005 we played a triple overtime game that started way late against Arlington Lamar. Ended around 1:30 AM iirc(was a thursday night too!) Didn't seem to affect the game timing or anything

A couple things I would be worried about if I were an Allen fan (during the regular season) and knew I'd have to play SLC in the 2nd round.

1. Allen's defense is not that great. They do not force many turnovers. However, they do generally disguise their coverages well.

2. SLC has had a very good defense against the rush this year. If they can contain Mr. Brown and force him to throw the deep ball (like he likes to do), I do not think it is going to go in their favor. A couple bad throws deep and that's the ballgame. Especially against a focused Dragon squad.

3. Allen lives and dies by Brown's ability to count to 3. A couple hits and maybe his timing gets off. This could easily win the game for SLC.

SLC 35
Allen 28



:confused: No love for 8-5A?!?!?! Appreciate the support.............

Cute DragonBand06. Now copy the statement the way it really reads (as I've posted below.) You're just proving my point about your immaturity.

ODB's just HATE being fify'd. b756562395872359827523547923847234982734971, we went over this. It's nothing personal, just a way of expressing ideas on forums. Take a chill pill and pull the stick out ;)

I thought we could rely on yalls support?!?! :confused:

I mean don't we want the AHS EAGLES bowl?!??!?!


(not to mention, that game would cause some serious fun between my professor and me (her son is the starting center for Abilene) ) :D

well not gonna lie, that would be pretty sweet! we just have more of a history with Carroll, so thats why. What school do you go to if your professors son plays for Abilene?

Plus i would love to see Allens band

Well, I assure you of this...Whichever of these 2 great teams win on Saturday, that team will be playing you in rd 4, of that I am sure.



Good luck this week to Abilene bro, hope to see you again before the season comes to a close.

Thanks, but we've got to go through two undefeated teams before round 4, and if i learned anything from last year, its to not look ahead. but i gotta admit, a 4th round meeting would be alot of fun! Good luck to you guys as well.
