Greetings, Lion Fans, sorry for the delay, but it’s finally time for this week’s edition of the Blue Gang Notebook, and a look at the UT-Permian Basin Falcon offense vs. the Lion Defense. Let’s get to it. OVERVIEW-The Lions have a decided advantage overall. The Falcons are not a very explosive offense (only 6 plays…

Greetings, Lion fans, we’re down to the nitty-gritty of the season. With two games left in the regular season, on one hand, I wonder, “Where has the time gone?”, while on the other, two games to get to the playoffs seem like an eternity. This week, it’s a trip out west to Odessa, and the…

“Offense sells tickets, but defense wins championships.” Paul W. “Bear” Bryant Greetings, Lion fans. Well, here we are again, on the verge of another extremely important Lone Star Conference matchup with the Buffs of West Texas A&M.

“Winning isn’t the only thing, but making the effort to win is.” Vince Lombardi And that’s what it’s about right now, Lion Fans. Three games. West Texas A&M, UT-Permian Basin, and Angelo State. Three wins, and your Lions are playoff bound once more. It’s not about a Lone Star Conference title. Conference titles are nice…

Well Lions here we are again. Not much needs to be said as we know what the task ahead of us is. First thought…well maybe we had our hope’s up a little high. Maybe we expected too much too early. Maybe we didn’t think the dreaded championship hangover would get to us. Either way this…

Greetings, Lions fans, after the frustrations of last week, it’s time to turn our attention to the Mustangs of Western New Mexico. Let’s get to it. OVERVIEW-To say the Mustangs are young is an understatement. Starting only one senior, Western has struggled on offense to date, having failed to score a rushing touchdown, and have…

Dear Lion Staff and Players, It is a tough time for everyone right now. It’s understandable. You just got beat by four scores at home. There’s reason to have hope, and I’ll tell you why ” A wounded Lion is still fiercer than a strong wolf.” Matshona Dhilwayo, Author First of all, I refuse to…

Finally we got a break. Weather pushes the second half to Denton and we finally tamed the Mustangs. This team has given Coach Carthel more fits than any other opponent. No time to waste though as TSU is coming to town. Bounds provides the final thought once again. Let’s get to it. First thought…MSU is…

Greetings, Lion fans, it’s the week we’ve been waiting for. The biggest game of the season so far.

Let’s take a look…

Greetings, Lion Fans…..my apologies for the delay in getting this week’s installment of Getting Defensive on The Wire, but here we go: OVERVIEW-As much as has been written on the struggles of the Lion offense, the defense has been a true bright spot. After an opener with a high-powered A&M-Kingsville offense, the Lions have clamped…
