They lost their top CB, LB, RB and OT. Irrelevant as the state title game showed. Back up came in and did the same thing Evans did in the state game the year before. Davis is what makes the offense go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also get Banks back. This offense should be better than last years. Need to have the OL though. They graduate 4 of the starters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes them go is their OL Davis, you put a statue of a QB back there, and that offense isn't as good. QB's that can run at the HS level are more important than at any other level because of the difference in athletic ability at this level is bigger than at the next two. Duncanville beats NS if NS doesn't have Davis even with Parsons starting. Give them Evans to boot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They still would have beaten DV b/c they had a strong backfield and surprisingly they were able to grind it out. Davis is tough to stop b/c he’s also a very good passer, just like he did in ‘18 vs DV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duncanville couldn't stack the box because Davis can beat them in the air. Take Davis out, and Duncanville stacks the box and NS would've been 3 and out.

Anyone who watched the first game knew NS was the better team. It was just a game where everything went right for Katy offensively. They converted on some crucial 3rd and 4th downs and milked the clock. They needed those to just win a nail biter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their backup is a good QB, he would beat DV for stacking the box. Like I said, they had a solid backfield. That’s why it was seamless at times. NS OL won the battle upfront, and it was apparent the more the game wore on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something you're forgetting Banks had been sidelined for a while by the time the 1st game rolled around. One of the reasons why they were out of sorts is the week before the 1st game they lost their starting OG (edzavier deblaw) to a broken leg and adjusted some players around to accommodate. They played around moving pieces for most of the preseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Practice and game situations aren't the same thing. Davis favorite target was banks.

I'm not going to say otherwise based on todays game, but Katy does have better than a punchers chance if these teams played again. Last years Duncanville team IMO was better than NS. I don't care what the outcome was due to some hailmary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my bigger point is they proved they are capable of coming into a season opener and playing poorly, on national TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steeler01 Posted January 5, 2020 Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 Going into the game the line should be -10/14 NorthShore. I'd like to have seen MD/SJB play NorthShore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katy was pushing around their DL the 2d half. It didn’t happened the 2d game b/c NS big DT transfer was cleared so he was able to play in the 2d game. He helped their DL a lot NS never was healthy this season. For the S.C. game they were missing Banks, Evans CB/LB and an OG. Anyways a new year, spring is critical to see who has what and where Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champa Posted January 5, 2020 Report Share Posted January 5, 2020 Since North Shore is gonna be representing Texas against DLS, they better bring it the first game of the season this upcoming year. None of that weak crap where they looked out of shape and not motivated in the first Katy game. They SHOULD win, but will they is a different story. I'd take playoff NS by 3 touchdowns if I knew that team was gonna show up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESPN is who negotiated this matchup so no fault to either school. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
