Lee is playing Permian in Odessa tonight. Permian up 14-10 at half. Although I graduated from Midland High both of my brothers went to Lee so I am pulling for the Midland school....go Lee.

Listening to it online. Permian ahead 28-10 late in the 3rd.

I juat got a text from my friend at the game and it is 28-10 as you said. My friend is sitting with the mother of the Lee quarterback and she has been a nervous wreck all night.

Looks like it's going to end at 35-17 Permian

Yup Lee took it on the chin after playing them close in the first half. Not surpirsed, Permian has a good team this year.

I knew I should have driven out to Odessa to see this game, as opposed to staying in town to watch the Aggies lose another one at home...

Cannot wait for the playoffs, and hopefully Permian will play at least in Abilene...

A law school buddy of mind drove down from Lubbock to the Permian - Lee game Friday. He's from Reno, Nevada, his wife is from Colorado. They were awed by what they saw. He went to the University of Nevada, and said that the Permian - Lee game was more fun than any Nevada football game he ever attended. He was amazed at how spirited the fans were, particularly the players’ parents, and how they had organized chants. His wife went to high school at a state powerhouse in Colorado and said they might have 3,000 at their games. She was amazed at the size of Ratliff and the amount of people at that game. He was stunned when I told him that my hometown (Stamford) has a population of 3,500 and our stadium seats well over 5,000.

They were expecting to see a spectacle the likes of which they had never experienced, but they were not at all prepared for the magnitude of the spectacle that is Permian-Lee and West Texas high school football. He ranked it as one of his top sporting event moments of all time and said that everyone should see a Permian - Lee game once in their life.

The game in Midland is great too...Midland's new stadium is awesome and have had SRO for Lee-Permian. That game truly is a unique and fun game in the state of Texas. Everyone should attend at least one and try and go when both are in the top ten statewide.
