Obviously....our biggest concern is for Marshall to win out the final two games and clinch the top seed in 4A Div II. If we lose to SS or MP, then all this changes. NOT to mention....several of the other districts invoved are still undecided too.
With all that said.... here is a FUZZY pic of how our post season road could shape up:
ROUND ONE: Lindale is our best bet. Unless Whitehouse pulls and upset, which would send Kilgore down. Henderson will go Div II, but seems to have the inside track to the district title......in theory.
ROUND 2: West Mesquite or Corsicana is our best bet.
ROUND 3: #7 Denison (7-1) will probably be our best bet as they will face a DISD school no matter what in the second round.
ROUND 4 (REGION FINALS): This is where is gets REALLY fuzzy. Rockwall Heath (7-1), Frisco Liberty (5-3), McKinney (3-5), or Sulphur Springs (6-2). Waco University (5-3) could have an outside shot too.
ROUND 5 (SEMIFINALS): Region I is loaded with good teams. #13 Aledo (7-1), #23 Stephenville (6-2), #9Birdville (8-0), #27 Everman (6-2) and Denton are all possibilities.
ROUND 6: TEXAS BOWL): #10 Brenham (7-1), #20 Dayton (6-2), #8 Port-Neches Groves (8-0), Schertz Clements (5-2), #26 Corpus Christi Calallen (7-1).
Like I said....this could allll change after Friday. And even more so after next week. But this is just to have some names floating round our heads.
For the record..... 4A Div I is KILLER tough this year. If Longview not only makes it to the title game.....but if they WIN it, they will earn it every step of the way. There are some unreal teams in Div I this season.
Lake Travis 8-0- back to back defending state champions
Denton Guyer 8-0 gave the Lobos all they wanted last season in the playoffs
Angleton 8-0
Highland Park 7-1
Waxahachie 8-0
Waco Midway 7-1 the game the Lobos won on a controversial 2 point conversion
Denton Ryan 7-1
Killeen 6-2
Playoffs should be FUN!
