Opening kickoff with the wind flies well out of the end zone for a touchback. First-and-10 from the 25. ]]> <![CDATA[2:07 Comment From Not a Not a Midway Fan]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:07:51 GMT <![CDATA[2:08 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:08:27 GMT Midway's first drive is derailed by a bad snap on the first play. On Abilene's second play from scrimmage, Marcell Porter hits the sideline and shows off some serious speed, outrunning Justin Barnes, who had an angle on him, for a 71-yard TD run. It's 7-0 Eagles with 9:31 to go in the first quarter. ]]> <![CDATA[2:09 Comment From Not a Not a Midway Fan]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:09:56 GMT <![CDATA[2:10 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:10:13 GMT Another touchback, Midway starts again at its own 25. ]]> <![CDATA[2:13 Comment From Not a Midway Fan]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:13:38 GMT <![CDATA[2:15 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:15:42 GMT Midway hits a screen pass to Hunter Jarmon, who makes his way all the way across the field and picks up a block by DeChaar Greer, one of the best downfield blocks you'll ever see as he pushes the man 15 yards and finishes it with a pancake. That was the only obstacle in Jarmon's way on a 67-yard TD. It's 7-7 with 7:45 to go in the first quarter. ]]> <![CDATA[2:16 David Ash]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:16:36 GMT Ricky Williamson 24 yard run gives the Lions a 1st-and-goal at the 2 ]]> <![CDATA[2:18 David Ash]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:18:35 GMT Norwood comes in at qb but a bad snap gets by him and the Lions turn it back over to Frenship ]]> <![CDATA[2:21 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:21:48 GMT Abilene strikes again, going 69 yards in eight plays.

The Panthers punt, and Abilene takes over at its own 30. The Midway defense desperately needs a stop. ]]> <![CDATA[2:28 David Ash]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:28:22 GMT Lions fumble again for third straight possession. No turnover this time but Waco is forced to punt on fourth down ]]> <![CDATA[2:28 Comment From Guest]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:28:58 GMT <![CDATA[2:29 Comment From devin]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:29:31 GMT <![CDATA[2:31 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:31:52 GMT Midway's defense gets the stop it needed as a 48-yard field goal from Matt Loftin falls just short. It's still 14-7 Eagles, with Midway taking over at its own 31 with 1:34 to go in the first quarter. ]]> <![CDATA[2:32 Comment From David Ash]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:32:45 GMT <![CDATA[2:34 Comment From devin]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:34:17 GMT <![CDATA[2:34 David Ash]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:34:48 GMT Stephen Smith scores from 1-yard out to give the Tigers a 14-0 lead. 11:11 to play in second quarter. ]]> <![CDATA[2:34 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:34:55 GMT I do, Devin, but it's not going to be easy. ]]> <![CDATA[2:36 Comment From devin]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:36:13 GMT <![CDATA[2:36 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:36:58 GMT A holding penalty negates a 62-yard TD pass to DeChaar Greer, but the hold was called well before the pass. Midway tries a draw play on third-and-11 and comes up 2 yards short. A punt is high into the wind, and only goes 15 yards. Abilene has it back at its own 46. ]]> <![CDATA[2:37 Comment From devin]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:37:14 GMT <![CDATA[2:38 Comment From devin]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:38:22 GMT <![CDATA[2:38 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:38:27 GMT END 1: Abilene 14, Midway 7.

Another missed opportunity for Waco ]]> <![CDATA[2:40 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:40:24 GMT It's usually pretty good, and it's really good at making adjustments. Marcell Porter had 121 yards on his first five carries, but has lost 4 on his last two. We'll see if the Panthers can bottle him up the rest of the way. ]]> <![CDATA[2:41 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:41:33 GMT Abilene punts into the wind, and Midway will take over at its own 24.

Kramer Robertson keeps on a zone read. Everybody went with the back, and Robertson rolls in untouched from 17 yards out. It's 14-all, 8:58 left in the first half. ]]> <![CDATA[2:47 Comment From devin]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:47:30 GMT <![CDATA[2:47 Comment From devin]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:47:31 GMT <![CDATA[2:47 David Ash]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:47:52 GMT Lions ball, they are in Frenship territory at the 43 ]]> <![CDATA[2:48 Comment From devin]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:48:45 GMT <![CDATA[2:48 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:48:53 GMT Touchback, Abilene will start at its own 25. ]]> <![CDATA[2:49 David Ash]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:49:02 GMT Simms carries the ball inside the 10 and the Lions have a first and goal at the 9 ]]> <![CDATA[2:50 David Ash]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:50:26 GMT Williamson gets the LIons on the board with a 9-yard touchdown run. 21-7 Frenship with 7:56 to play in first half ]]> <![CDATA[2:50 Comment From devin]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:50:59 GMT <![CDATA[2:52 Comment From devin]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:52:51 GMT <![CDATA[2:53 Jason Orts]]> Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:53:04 GMT Marcell Porter is getting cranked up again in this drive with runs of 5, 24 and 9, and the Eagles have the ball at the Midway 27, second-and-9.
