Nolebull813 Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Stumbled upon this game and thought how random this match up is. Anyone know of any other games that seem pretty random? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrepGridiron Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 I believe it's a KSA event. They usually have random teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolebull813 Posted February 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 No it's at Sulphur Springs. Also I read Garfield was trying to find another Texas game the week before, so they can stay the whole week and play 2 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach wanted to take the kids to Disney last year. That left them with an open date for 2017 and Garfield was in Texas message boards looking for a game so they made it happen.

Last year they took a Disney Ass whipping from Seminole Ridge 49 - 10 finished (4-8) lost to Marshall 56 -13. The year before they were (1-9). They used to be pretty good so hopefully they will be better this year. They also play in one of the weakest 5A Districts in the State.

Teams don't have to be national powers to play OOS games. Looks like Garfield finished the year outside of the Top 50 in the state of Washington. More of a question might be why there is a thread on this game, rather than why are these teams playing one another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't hurt to try and squeeze these political threads out some. They are turning the board to spam 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know where Sulphur Springs is? If so that would answer the How question. I will assure you Sulphur Springs would be hard to crack the top 40 in East Texas. I think it is interesting. I go to a lot of games and Sulphur Springs is only about 65 miles from McKinney. Give me a chance to see some Washington Football. It beats the non Stop Trump Threads and the left and right Vitriol. When you think money S.S. does not come to mind even out in Beast Texas. Good for them and the kids and they have been decent in the past decade but lately they suck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they went 4-8, can I presume they made the playoffs with a 3-7 record? does that happen much in TX? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to hs in Seattle my knowledge of Garfield football is very dated but they were the inner city athlete school in WA back in the day -- have multiple alumni in all the major sports (Trailblazer Brandon Roy might be biggest current name) I'd call them a poor mans Crenshaw or if you're familiar with NorCal McClymonds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be correct. Roughly half of the teams in Tx make the playoffs so 5-5 would be a normal record for the lower teams, but obviously you have some outliers. 4 teams advance from each district and occasionally some district might have only 5 or 6 teams!

(Sidenote: Before anyone "reminds me" of 2012 and 2013 (I think) When they won 8 games in both seasons...Note that they were (and Still are) in one of the weaker 5A districts in the state...) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SS was a strong program in the mid 2000's, even won a state championship during that time but they have been horrible for several seasons now. From what I've seen, not only have they seen a huge drop in talent but they simply don't have many players in the program. I think they suited less than 40 on varsity in 2016 which is pretty damn bad for a 5A school in Texas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 9, 2017 Report Share Posted February 9, 2017 DD, now there's a 5A that Gilmer/Carthage would skull drag. lol I can honestly say that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
