They are still competing at a high level. DeSoto is the best team in the state. They have more size and speed than anyone. The fact that SLC made it a close game was pretty impressive. SLC seems to go back and forth between D1 and D2. This was a very bad year to be D2 because of DeSoto. The one year they beat Duncanville to get to state they faced a very good WL team. It's not that SLC is getting worse as much as it is some other teams are just getting better. The best athletes are at DeSoto, NS and Duncanville currently. The team DeSoto will play in the championship is a really good up and coming program that has a lot of great athletes as well. I suspect DeSoto will be too big and too fast but it should be a good game.
@@bobbywise2313DeSoto is not bud, Northshore is the best team in the state, We took out Westlake yesterday and we finna take out Duncanville for the 4th time in the state Championship
Did anyone catch the embarrassing job the play-by-play guy did on the NFHS Network network televising the game? Twice when a Desoto player was going into the end zone he said, "And Allen scores." Yeah, the game was played in Allen and both teams are the Eagles but really? Twice? He also could never figure out when a runner was stopped or not. One late critical play he said "First down for South Lale Carroll...oh, wait, I was looking at the wrong down marker. Make it 4th and 9." Wow! I hope he's not slated to do any state final games.
Wait! Southlake is was the undefeated ranked #4 team and have been smashing teams all year, and playing the # 1 Team DeSoto in a dog fight to go to the championship the only game left, and you consider them overrated? There's only one team left to play can't be overrated going to the championship.
