Congratulations Vela on taking on Eagle Pass and coming out victorious. On to the third round where Vela will play vs. San Antonio Brandeis. Interesting is Vela playing the same 2 opponents Hanna did last year as Hanna had the game vs Brandeis until late due to depth. Hope Vela comes out the same as Hanna did but hoping they can close the game better than Hanna did. This will be a big time challenge as QB Battles will be a big handful for Vela. Also interesting is Coach Campbell will be going against a school he formerly coached. Coach Campbell went 69 and 19 at Brandeis with three 2nd round appearances and three 4th round appearances. Here at Vela this will be his third 3rd round appearance in a row, will the valley break through? Good luck and go Sabercats. EP2RGV, here is to your son to have a chance to remove that bad taste in his mouth over last year. May the Sabercats come out victorious.

Good luck to our Sabercats and I will be flying into town for this week I had this trip planned already! I told my son what are the odds that the same teams are lining up but now you are wearing a different uniform!

Originally posted by cardinal85 View PostI think this is the only Valley 6A game that doesn’t have me thinking blowout. The other two games have very tough draws. This isn’t saying Brandeis will not be a challenge, they will. Ha, ultimately, I’m saying it can be close.

I think Brandeis wins by like 3 TDs, but they’ll pull away late after Vela keeps it close most of the game. Brandeis is much improved from last year, and that battles kid is the best QB Vela has faced so far, injured or not. They also have a really good cornerback in Aiden Inesta-Rodriguez. He’s a sophomore that’s been a starter since week 1 of his freshman year, could cause problems for Vela’s passing attack. Just another year of super tough draws for the 3 valley teams. And even poor United has to play Judson.

Battle is a dang good QB but he will get rattled if Vela can get to him. Once he’s rattled he will make mistakes and will throw the ball up for grabs. Vela DB’s just have to be ready and able to go up and get it. I know it’s easier said than done but Vela will hold their own against Brandeis.Originally Posted by newbler
