Plano vs. Euless Trinity (Dec 2007)

[@Dallascaper]

A Trinity fan here -- I posted a link to this video on the 5A HS football forums. Solid editing and you did a great job of capturing the atmosphere of the game...the music is perfect. The game was a battle that could have gone either way -- Texas will be seeing more of Plano no doubt.

[@jellowrestling]

You really captured the pageantry of Texas high school football at its finest. Beautifully done.

[@eclecticgold]

great job of cutting to the music, love the music choice as well. This is one of the great games in playoff history, so close.

[@pliskin1005]

i cant believe plano couldn't pull it off, so heartbreaking, you did an excellent job on this video capturing all of the right moments and nothing extra and i think i might have been sitting behind you :p

[@Tsup09]

Good video i like how u put highlights from both teams and not just one or the other because this really was one of the best high school games ever, i'm part of the trinity team and the Plano game is tied with the Southlake Carrol game to me for the best high school game i've seen it really was the hardest fought game and like Lesi said under me that was the state game because Judson wouldnt have been able to hang with Plano or Trinity... T's UP 2007 5A State Champs

It's called "Prelude to War" by Bear McCreary. You can get it off the Battlestar Galactica season 2 soundtrack

[@Dallascaper]

And two years later this is still a great video.

[@hanah167]

you know wut, i think the trojans are a good team and they obviously are better b/c they beat us, so good job to them for that, and for winning the state championship. good job trinity, keep it up :)

[@frozen10x]

Man, that game hurt a lot. I graduated from PSHS in 06' and we lost to SL Carrol in the fourth quarter, after leading for the majority of the game. Because I go to school at North Carolina, that was the last game I saw before coming home for Christmas and going to this game. Back to back heartbreak is pretty rough. 08' is looking up though! GO PLANO!

[@fefefoesho11]

great vid! ive been looking for a good highschool football video on youtube. thnx

[@paulv1973]

Thanks and good luck next year!

[@jaybuckODT]

I was at this game! Absolutely insane!!!!! I was 12!

[@westrck9]

great video! the music is awesome and really helped set the atmosphere of the game. i despise plano (i'm a west fan) but i respect them a lot. west was soo close to beating plano that year too. anyways, this is definetly an awesome vid

[@hanah167]

we deserve state because we worked the hardest.

[@Alikibrahim]

Plano is a great school and they always give trinity trouble they almost pulled it off this past playoff season but lost 41-38. They play so well because there smart and well coached. Respect. T's Up Baby!!! State Champs 09

[@D2JX]

Great video paulv1973. The Trojans will be back and even better next year and I get a feeling we will be seeing Plano again too.

[@hanah167]

DJN1S, one of our players spine was fractured, and he still stayed in the game

[@paulv1973]

Thanks!

[@huskermaniac28]

yeah they really do, since they are making a run for the state finals. definitely. you are really smart

[@paulv1973]

Thanks :) It was a great game indeed.

[@billDgundam817DFW]

Does anybody know who was the Quarterback for Plano that year 2007 I think number 28, and did he go to play college ball somewhere?

[@pshsa5]

Man that game was epic. I wish we had either won (duh) or lost by like 20 points. Then it wouldn't have hurt so badly. But it was definitely a great game and I'm glad I was there through every step of Plano football's progression the past 2 years.

[@wheelchairby284]

go plano! I cant believe it happened again this year but we'll get em some day!

[@rhyde11]

this game was depressing. i was standing in shock for 5 minutes after they lost. plano deserved it so badlyy. rex had an off night. hopefully we'll do better next season.

[@115Bigb]

awesome job with the editing, very reminiscent of friday night lights

[@itstevita]

hey what music piece is that.. it sounds way intense. almost like a last samurai kind of piece

[@paulv1973]

Yeah the song was running out so I couldn't fit more overtime plays...plus there weren't many exciting plays in overtime if I recall when I was editing it.

[@paulv1973]

@jetmiller522 unfortunately, I lost the original footage when my external hard drive crashed :(

[@hanah167]

thank you, finally someone who understands what i mean.

[@paulv1973]

Thanks and congrats to Trinity for winning it all!

[@paulv1973]

Yeah I heard. That's a bummer :( We'll get em next year

[@huskermaniac28]

and go rex burkhead! haha we are really excited to have him at nebraska!

[@wheelchairby284]

Nebraska? I thought he was going to Yale?...or was that his brother?

[@Dallascaper]

This from a Trinity alum: I wish the Trinity fans would stop pouncing on every comment made by Plano fans -- remember SLC 2006? Yeah, it doesn't feel good, so let them be. Plano pushed Trinity as far as any team I've seen. Someone had to win the game, and Trinity managed to come out on top...barely. It's going to take Plano fans a while to get over a loss like that one, but I wouldn't be surprised to see their team win a championship this year.

[@redmustang03]

I was at that game and boy Plano had them if that QB didn't throw that INT it would put Plano up by 2 scores, but still great game.

[@TheGreatIvan]

I do believe Trinity is. Wouldn't you agree?

[@crazyoufan]

video would be so much better if some plays werent cut short

[@antmayfield]

holy shit that was intense

[@hanah167]

no i didnt, i commented the video, then u commented me syaing how did plano deserve it more than trinity. ok everyone has there own opinions, i think that plano deserved it, u think trinity did. w.e. i dont care, u can say w.e. u want about plano thats ur problem, so lets just stop this because it has no point, b/c obviously ur not gonna stop arguing about it and im not either, so lets just stop.

[@chalivocal]

History isnt written by shoulda coulda wouldas what happened was trinity was the better team

[@hanah167]

ummm i highly doubt, i think they are all gonna give YOU thumbs down for saying that our team sucked, and rex sucked.

[@paulv1973]

oops...accidentally deleted a comment! I meant to hit "Reply" but clicked on remove on accident.

[@paulv1973]

I don't know if I would call losing by a field goal in overtime "getting dat ass whipped". It could have gone either way.

[@hanah167]

wow and are any of them better than rex? no, they're not

[@huskermaniac28]

what? haha no hes going to nebraska. i doubt a 4 star running back would choose yale over nebraska, texas tech, texas a&m or stanford. but yeah hes going to nebraska. he should be a good fit for nebraska's offense.

[@hanah167]

ok where u even at the game? and did u n ot read Dallascapers comment? if i where u i would listen to him and leave me the hell alone, no one asked for u

[@rickyboy122509]

they should have blown the wistle when #20 simir baker fumbled

[@dukebball050]

nice

[@acole11]

I was here

[@nebhuskers923]

Rex Burkhead baby

[@TheGreatIvan]

And Trinity did not deserve it? T's UP!

[@xomisskara]

Actually no, Plano gave Trinity a great game, but Trinity fought and earned the win.

[@hanah167]

umm....ok?

[@TheGreatIvan]

Yeah, Plano should have won, but they didn't. Oh, and how do we suck if we won state?

[@paulv1973]

Yep. Too bad they are imploding it in a couple of months to make room for a shopping mall lol

[@grizzlyadms34]

@bregirn123 fuck yes

[@hanah167]

mhhmm plz

[@robertparks2933]

THEY CAN EVEN BEAT ALLEN GO EAGLES

[@chicotata]

Plano sucks! Trinity had them up by 17 and they started to screw around. They played one of their worse games and still beat plano. I guess the plano players did'nt get enuff cheese b4 the game. What it all comes down to is we r state champions and you guys r not.

[@bumbumbebum]

lol...we all know Plano should have won Trinity SUCKS

[@paulv1973]

Thanks!
