Hewitt Trussville High versus Thompson High tonight at 6:30pm on ESPN 2. A lot of folks have been waiting on this game.

Thanks for the tip!   :clap:


Currently I'm watching Catholics v Convicts, Subpart b.   ;)


Lane Kiffin also is facing off against Skip Holtz. 

Quick paced game.  Hewitt-Trussville up 7-0 and on 9 going in.

14-0 HT. 

Looks like we need Baby Tua on the defense!

 :popcorn2:

21-0.

Not much defense by Thompson; missed tackles and open receivers.

You are being too nice.  Horrible defense for Thompson.  They are out of position, lose the edge, don't fill the lanes, and play flatfooted in the secondary.

Well, yeah, but other than that... How are they doing?

They just scored so it is 28-7.  Had other opportunities early should be a closer game.  Sometimes it looks like they don't even practice on D.

HT fumbled and Thompson gets it.  I will say one of the OL from HT had nice tackle.  28-14 if they make the extra point, 

They can't tackle on special teams either, TD 35-14, if they make the extra point.

That little rocket keeps running all over Thompson.

WOAH, little Tua just ran one for a TD.

35-21

35-28

It looks like Thompson took the JV defense out and put the varsity defense in.  Thompson makes a stop and now has a chance to go down and tie the game.

35-35

Whoo Hoo!  Looks like a future Bama QB is going to win tonight... (https://bullgatorslounge.com/images/smilies/sohappy.gif)

That is a pretty safe bet.

It's a good game. There are 6 Bama commits between the 2 teams.

Really?  That makes it almost a Jr. A-Day game then...   ;)

GM, EO was there earlier.  Bobby Humphreys and Trent Richardson were also there, not sure who else.

Thompson takes their first lead 42-35.

42 all

Good game.

:popcorn2:

49-42 Thompson

If you like defense, hide your eyes.

I can't even imagine being one of the average Joes on one of these teams and getting the opportunity to play on ESPN.

49 all.  Defense, defense, we don't need no stinking defense.

56-49 1:40 to play, Thompson leads.

True.  :lol2:

Thompson takes the lead again by a TD but they score too quick.  HT will have time to tie them again.

The Auburn commit screws up and gives the ball back to Thompson.  We knew an Alabama QB would lose, but I am glad it was Auburn's fault.  :lol2:

Should be able to run the clock out.

63-49 should be over.  52 sec's left

#+ #+ #+   :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thompson wins 63-49.

What a comeback!!

I only caught the second half, but what a fun game to watch. Both QBs played pretty well. Taulia has better speed than I thought. I think he's faster than Tua, but at this point, a little less accurate. Paul Tyson has a good arm, as well. Can't wait to see them at Bama.........after Tua and Jalen move on, of course.

I only caught the first half.  I really liked what I saw from Paul Tyson (P3) -- big guy, stands tall in the pocket, very accurate passer.  "Little Tua" aka Lia (T2) overthrew a few receivers early then settled down.  He plays like Jalen, a very good runner, scramble passing bullets. 

I agree with everyone, do they not teach defense anymore? Both QBs had their moments but they both have a lot of work to do to play the college level. I really hate to see the media play up Tia so much, he's a long ways from being a Tua. I also agree that that he looks more like Hurts than he does his brother.

Good points, Jamos.

Just want to say that ONLY THE REC COULD MANAGE A BIG-TIME GAME WHERE BOTH QBs ARE ALREADY ALABAMA COMMITS.
