Having watched some Shoemaker highlights WR #13 is a big part of their offense. He is quick and can get behind the defense. Also saw him return a kick for a TD. Their QB #7 will take off running and make some plays. I do think their offense is the strength of their team. If we can get a couple of stops early then that should set us up good.

We’ve had some bangs and bruises but everyone’s healthier now. We got a QB competition going now, #8 Tyrieke Wade has come in while Malachi Jerome’s been a little banged up and he has 11 passing TDs in the last 3 weeks. We led our district in rushing offense & total offense, I think we’re 2nd in total defense. #5 Jerrod Hicks has over 1,000 yards rushing in under 100 carries and I wanna say 17 TDs. Not the biggest team on defense but they’ve played well since the Lake Belton loss and they fly to the ball. #2 Malik Esquerra is a Tech commit at safety and he’s the best defensive player we have I think. We also have the district sack leader as well #24

70% chance of rain the entire game. I know Aledo played Abilene Cooper in an extremely wet playoff game. I bet they keep it Thursday but I'd move it back to Friday when its dry.

It won't matter if it rains, snows, hails, or it's 110 degrees. Unless Hell ices over then Aledo is winning this one.
Shoemaker is a solid team and should give Aledo a decent game but in the end I see a 2-4 TD win here.

I only witnessed change of our playoff games due to unsafe travel conditions and I don't think that will be the case this Thursday but it would seem to benefit both teams and fans if they moved it to Friday. A buddy and I (wives don't want to go on with rain forecast) will be sitting on the visitors side since playoff games seats are first come first serve with our season ticket seats not viable. We've done that in past and its enjoyable to watch the game from that perspective. Good news...our last rain game turned out nice for us!

Why is this game Thursday?? Aledo has played the first round playoff game on a Thursday for awhile now. Gives the winning team an extra day for round 2.

Passing game might be limited but it sounds like the young RBs are healthy. Power football it is.

I forgot, another game is booked at our place on Friday. If we moved our game we'd have to use old Bearcat.

Why is this game Thursday?? Because a lot of coaches like to play the 1st PO game on Thursday to give them an extra day to prepare for round 2

Sounds like RB #1 might miss the game Thursday.

I think Shoemaker is the best 4th place team in the tournament. Looking at their scores, the 3 games they lost were by 9,11, and 3 points. The more research I do the more I think this will be a good first round game. Starting the tournament off with a very solid opponent.
