FB: USA South Athletic Conference

The game today and the Hendrix game (I went to that one in Montgomery) both 'felt' like we were going to win early on

I will try to watch the Belton Tejas game.
If you go, let us know

Todays teams were well matched. The post game news conf with Berry's head coach , QB and star LB was really neat. I did not expect the interception, but I really didn't think they would score

Berry has a really good program. I hope we will have to opportunity to see them again next year, as this is a good rivalry.

have a wonderful Thanksgiving Hawks and keep the faith

Hey, you know me. I'm all about a road trip!

On the interception I was wondering what a d-lineman was doing out where he was to make that play. From the HC post game news conference, that was his assignment on that play, follow the RB to the flats. Ball came right to him. Awesome.

Go Hawks!

Hawks
I watched the press conf 2x about his description. He looks sorta like a 1/2 DE and an old time 'Monster' hybrid. He was assigned it, even Turk said that. Was there a clip . or post interception holding or excessive celebration

I think the Hawks are 2-1 against SAA in post season play now, but could be wrong ?

If you travel, yall be safe.
The Cru is and has been the real deal for a long while. I hope the Hawks can show up and play well.
Have a Glorious Thanksgiving
Keep the faith

Congratulations to Huntingdon for a great game plan.

It is obvious you guys have had plenty of experience in the rain this year. Very good execution in some tough weather.

Great crowd, I hope they enjoyed the experience in Rome.

Good Luck this Saturday.

Right now the weather forecast is 40% rain and thunderstorms for Belton Saturday. The rain I'm okay with, we've done will in the rain this year. The thunderstorms part, I don't like so much.

Forecasts I'm looking at right now have rain ending before noon, hope that stays the case.

That said, Texas thunderstorms this time of year usually aren't much to worry about. Not a lot of moisture in this system so you're looking at a half-inch or less combined Friday and Saturday. Safe travels to your men and anyone making the trip to Central Texas.

Looking forward to this game. I watched the whole game from Saturday and it seems that Huntingdon has a strong running back and a tough defensive line. UMHB has struggled to run against disciplined defensive lines this year. I think they give in a little too soon. From watching the game, it looks as if the secondary of the hawks is susceptible and that may be where we attack. Any thoughts from the fans who have seen Huntingdon play more than I have?

"it looks as if the secondary of the hawks is susceptible and that may be where we attack' That will probably be the case.

We are proud of the Hawks, but....... yall tend to hav been in a different class. I thought yall won the Stagg bowl against Mount Union way way back, when yalls backer picked up a fumble near the goal line and ran it back. I still remember it

I pray the Hawks will show up, and play the best game they are capable

Keep the faith

We beat Oshkosh in '16 and Mount in '18. In '04, we played Mount in the semis up in Alliance and beat them in a last second play in the snow.

Will you be coming to the game?

Hawks88 · November 28, 2019, 08:06:15 PM

I'm going.

Nice article about Otis Porter being able to return this season. Turned out to be the one good thing about that Guilford game being cancelled last year as I don't know if he would have gotten to if that game had counted.

Hawks
yall be safe, have fun

umhb2001
My bad... it was 04 against Linfield. Yall had a backer that scooped a bal up near the goal line and ran it back. I really thought yall had won, but not the case, as I remember it was ruled a TD for linfield... but... my memory is not as it use to be

I am staying home for this one

My son was that linebacker and still swears he pulled the ball from Elliott's hands before he crossed the goalline.
