BanderThanYou Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 I know, I know, before the mob attacks me saying that this forum is for txbands, not their football teams, I am interested in how everyone's football teams are doing. Plus, when a school's football team is doing well, it brings more attention to the band, ultimately it all ties back to the band, right? I, for one, love sitting in the stands during football games and playing stand tunes. It's especially fun when our team is on the verge of winning and we're blasting our songs as loud as possible to cheer them on. How's everyone else's school's football team doing currently?

josephbandfan Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 Keller is currently 5-1. I remember in 2016, they only won 1 game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostChoirGuy Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 Keller is currently 5-1. I remember in 2016, they only won 1 game Keller used to be terrible. Its honestly been like 15 years since I can remember them being anywhere near this good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog885 Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Anderson is 3-3. Probably going to lose the last 4 against Austin, Lehman, and ESPECIALLY Westlake and Lake Travis. Since we won 2 district games we're going to playoffs to probably get destroyed by Cedar Ridge (I think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadisonBandMan1 Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Our team is the best they have been since 2013 (I think that’s the last time we went 5 rounds in, don’t remember the exact year. All I know is the year after we went 0-10 because our head coach retired. Fun fact - that (2013) was also the year our band got penalized for being too loud LeanderMomma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartanBandAlum Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Porter is currently 4-2, probably soon to be 4-3 after our game against Port Arthur Memorial this Friday (that’ll be a rough trip/weekend in general) Our football team has been progressively getting better, and pulled one of the biggest upsets in district history when we beat a top 15 school (Crosby) at the beginning of the 2016 season after having a 1-9 record the season before.

TWHSParent Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 TWHS is 5-2. They lost their first 2 games and have won 5 straight in the district. Oh, and the game the band didn’t attend they won by something like 45 points. MadisonBandMan1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSHSMom Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Plano East was undefeated until last week when they played Allen (Big sigh!). So now they are 5-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenBandDad Posted October 17, 2018 Report Share Posted October 17, 2018 Allen is doing what Allen does - 6-0, gearing up for another state championship run. Our head band director is a big football fan, and previously was a college band director, so he's really good at getting the band involved in the game. Halftime is the band's time to shine, but during the game, the band's job is to support the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadisonBandMan1 Posted October 17, 2018 Report Share Posted October 17, 2018 I really wonder what it’s like to sit across from a band that size in a game situation. Wow. LeanderMomma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will play Hebron (4-2; 2-1) this week, The Mound Showdown at FM Marcus (4-2; 2-1) on Oct 26, and at Coppell (4-2; 2-1) on Nov 2. They finish the season at home vs Irving-MacArthur.

AllenBandDad Posted October 17, 2018 Report Share Posted October 17, 2018 I really wonder what it’s like to sit across from a band that size in a game situation. Wow. My favorite story about this: in 2014, Allen was playing DeSoto in a playoff game at AT&T stadium. I would estimate that there was somewhere in the neighborhood of 20000 Allen fans at the game. DeSoto had the ball, and their field position put them right in front of the Allen band. DeSoto's coach complained to the ref that the band was too loud and he wanted the noise rule enforced against the band. So, before the next play, the ref announced over the PA to the entire crowd that the Allen band was not allowed to play while DeSoto had the ball on that end of the field. At that point, DeSoto found out that 20000 booing fans make WAY more noise than the band. When their QB went under center for the next play, he looked up to the ref and signaled that he couldn't hear anything. The ref (via hand signs) basically told him, "you got what you asked for".

lostbandmom42 Posted October 22, 2018 Report Share Posted October 22, 2018 Our football is terrible at Harker Heights, they've won 1 game, and it will be the only game they win this year. My 7 year old daughter always tells a friend of mine, who works closely with the football team, how if they one did... (whatever she thinks they should have done) and my friend always tells her she agrees, and maybe the next game they coach. I do feel bad for our football team, they've had a rough year.

FloMoParent Posted October 29, 2018 Report Share Posted October 29, 2018 Looks like FloMo is bringing the mojo! Yes! This is the first time the Jags have been in the playoffs since my daughter's freshman year (she graduated in 2015). We are in year three of Coach Basil, this is the first winning record since that playoff year in 2010 (where they got absolutely killed by the eventual champion Southlake Carroll 81-10 IIRC) LeanderMomma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
