Cove has a good team every year too. Should be a good game.
...didn't know where to put this thread. but Alamo Heights is where i went to high school so i am pumped about the game tonight. since i am in Montana i am going to have to listen to a stream unless anybody knows of anyway i can get it on video through the internet? (i am guessing no).
thoughts: Heights always has a good team, but never a dominant one like this, so it is such an amazing accomplishment. especially, when you consider we are just a bunch of white rich kids,. anyway, Heights has blown away their opponents and i don't really expect this game to be any different....our first state le EVER!
prediction: 'Mo Heights 38 Copperas Cove 24
.....Go MULES!

...i just think this is Heights's year. i think the game will be close for about a half and then i expect Heights to open it up and win with a nice cushion. everyone has doubted this team early on in the playoffs and now they don't think our team has had that tough of a route to the le game. i can see why they say that, we have cruised to the le game...but thats more a testament to the quality of our team than the lack of opposition. everybody is good in rounds 3 & 4....now its just a matter of claiming what should be ours!!!
...whoa Mules! do it for Gaylard Fenley, we remember you man!!! (he was the athletic director when i was in high school, died of cancer).
NorCal would tell you that threads about high school JV backup kickers and the like go in the NFL forum.
I think you're probably in the right place.
I haven't seen either Heights or Copperas Cove play this year; my sheer guess is that Heights steps up in class a bit too much this week and is beaten in the Dome. San Antonio teams (other than Judson) haven't traditionally fared well in state finals. Greater SA area teams are 5-13 in 5A and 4A state finals since 1983:
Judson 4-6
Smithson Valley 0-3
Roosevelt 1-0
Marshall 0-1
Taft 0-1
MacArthur 0-1
New Braunfels 0-1
I hope I'm wrong, though.
good thoughts. but 'Mo Heights was suppose to be out of their league against Lamar Consolidated...and then proceeded to beat their ass. i realize the odds are against my school, but they have been all year. plus, Copperas Cove's defense is going to get destroyed by Giovanni and the Heights offense.
...kick off in a little over 3 hours. can't believe i have to listen to it on the internet though.
taft should have won that game a few years back... IIRC they lost because of a missed pat.
bummer. but i think it also helps that Heights was in the state semifinal a few years ago when these seniors were freshmen. and while they didn't play they still got to be a part of it and see what going that far into the playoffs was all about.
...i really feel confident that Heights wins.
I'm gonna say Cove by 14. Looking at the games both teams have played in the playoffs, one could easily argue that any one of Cove's opponents would beat Heights.
There have certainly been some near misses. Taft was close, but played in horrendous weather and had all sorts of trouble moving the ball. Smithson Valley has lost a couple of close games in Finals. MacArthur lost badly in their only appearance, but they didn't know they were playing in the state final until Wednesday or Thursday and had very little time to prepare for Cedric Benson's Midland Lee team. Marshall was fairly close in 1991, holding a halftime lead on Odessa Permian's (supposedly) greatest team ever.
Like I say, I hope Heights wins.
care to make a wager? winner designs loser's sig for a week? i'll take 7 points since your confident.
i am listening to the pregame right now on AM 930!
holy , i just read somewhere that 10-15,000 Copperas Cove fans were coming to the game and that with the Alamo Heights fans and 27-4A support there could be 20,000 fans there, can that be?
...anyway, my parents and friends are at the alamodome right now so they are going to call me at half time and stuff..... , i wish i was there.
