Texas Commits in Action – Regional Finals

@Sirhornsalot True Dangerfieid and Pittsburg had some of the best defenses I ever saw.
The players on that 83 DF team were sophomores and freshmen when I played. Several of them were elevated to varsity and played with me in '82. In 1980, I played against that state champion Pittsburg team. I've never hurt so much in my life than I did after that game.

The difference in the two . . . Pittsburg had some good, really good players. But they weren't across the board talented. DF had talent at every position and depth that was uncommon for a 3A school. DF's third string RB could have started for almost any team in the state. The secondary was the state champion mile relay team. 

Pittsburg had a shutout record that Daingerfield broke (14 shutouts). And we will never see anything like it again.
