Mike Says: Coldspring will feature and great runner in Sherman Gilbert (1,324 rushing yards and 26 touchdowns) and a great defense. Their defense which has only given up 44 points all year long is led by LB Kedrick Harrison (76 tackles), DL Chance Andries (76 tackles) and DL Trey Cooper(41 tackles 4 sacks). Huffman features quarterback Preston Townley (2,290 passing yards and 29 touchdowns) and wide receiver Kade Hardy (44-766 11 touchdowns) on offense. Their defense is headed up by LB Austin Weber (81 tackles), DB Austin Williams (77 tackles) and DL Duane Mena (9.5 sacks 52 tackles). These two are by far the best two teams in the district. Coldspring is on a level all their own though. The TROJANS win 34-10!!!
Chris Says: I am going to save you a lot of reading. Coldspring-Oakhurst TROJANS win 45-20!!!

Mike Says: This will be Gilmer’s 4th Game Of The Week. They are 3-0 so far. Henderson is 0-1 in Games Of The Week falling to Carthage last week. This is another great East Texas showdown. Gilmer’s quarterback Luke Turner leads the team in passing and rushing. Their defense is led by LB Josh Walker and DB Tanner Barr. The BUCKEYES win 34-27!!!
Chris Says: Take away the Carthage game and these two teams are doing almost identical. In fact, Henderson did a better job handling both Liberty-Eylau and Longview Spring Hill. Gilmer did a much better job against Carthage and has also knocked off Daingerfield, so the Buckeyes are no stranger to performing in big games. It doesn’t get any bigger in the regular season than this game which will likely decide the District 16-3A title. In our Gilmer Buckeye’s Midseason Report Card coach Jeff Traylor talked about his team being “a pretty normal team.” Normal for Gilmer is a far cry better than most. I have also heard that Jordan Traylor will be taking over at QB this week due to injury. I expect the Henderson Lions to have a good showing, but the Gilmer BUCKEYES take it 31-21!!!

Mike Says: This will be a close one. The key matchup will the the Indians high scoring offense vs. the tough Loboes defense. Seminole QB Jacob Burtch will head up the Indians offense. Monahans defense comes in having only giving up 10 points per game. They are led by LB Blake Heflin, DB Payton Marcum, LB Jackson Scharf, DL Tivo Armendariz and DL Aaron Carlos. The LOBOES win 28-24!!!
Chris Says: This is a tough one to handicap. Each team has lost one game. Each team has defeated the team that beat the other one. The Indians are putting up crazy scoring offensive numbers. The Loboes are holding people to crazy defensive numbers. We have a classic battle of offense vs defense. The old adage is that defense wins championship while offense wins games. Well this ‘game’ could very well be for the district ‘championship.’ What to do? I ran some numbers and gave a few points to the home team and I come up with a Seminole INDIANS victory 48-45 in OT!!!

Mike Says: Canyon Lake really caught our eyes earlier in the season, when they defeated Sealy at home. They have a very talented team
with a strong running game and a good defense. Their defense is led by LB Jeremy Best (95 tackles), LB Matt Noyola (69 tackles) and DL Alex Kemp (7 sacks 42 tackles). Their running game features a good one in RB Zach Henshaw (1302 yards 17 TDs). He follows the big guys up front like OL Jaazaniah McNair and OL Logan Felch. With all that, you think that I am going to pick Canyon Lake right. Not so, this Wimberley team is too good. They are our prediction to make it to the Division II championship game. Quarterback Brady Lambert heads up the offense while DB Nick Alana and DL Colton Fonville lead the defense. This will be a great challenge for the Texans. The TEXANS win 35-21!!!
Chris Says: There are a lot of folks saying that this is the year for Canyon Lake. You know what? With Zach Henshaw running the ball, that may be true. There are also a lot of people saying that before Dennis Smith went down with an injury, this was Wimberley’s year. With Smith coming back in two weeks, that may be true also. Hopefully there won’t need to be someone with a degree from one of the sports medicine schools standing by. What you have here are two good teams about to knock heads with a combined record of 11-0… something has to give. In the end, the difference maker is going to Brennen Blakemore the WR for Wimberley. Canyon Lake does not have an answer for him. Sure, there will be a ton of points scored and the win very well could go to the team that has the ball last. Wimberley however does their folding when they are up by a lot – not in a tight game. The TEXANS come away with an exciting win 42-41!!!!
