Final
| Added At | Note |
| 1:56 PM | The Cardinals average 230 pounds across the O Line. They run a spread ground based offense led by 5'7" 155lb SR QB Jesse Castro. |
| 1:56 PM | Their defense is led by SR DE Edwin Gasca and SR LB Jacob Zavala up front. The secondary is comprised of the Martinez trio and SR Sam Medina at safety. |
| 2:20 PM | Getting close. Alma Maters are being sung. |
| 2:24 PM | Grant, here we go again. Both Reagan and Harlingen enter the game with a 1-1 record. Both teams coming off losses to Laredo United (Reagan) and, ironically, Lardeo United South Harlingen. |
| 2:26 PM | Grant, some may remember #5 from Harlingen from last season. As a Junior, Leo Tienda ran for 200 yards against Reagan. Other than stopping him, what do you see as keys to victory for tonight for the Rattlers? |
| 2:29 PM | Paul... Both teams are looking for bounce back victories after last week. The key tonight for the Rattlers will be stopping that Cardinal run game. |
| 2:31 PM | Reagan will have the ball. Deep is Gilliam and Tibbs. Pharris and Carrington up at 30. |
| 2:31 PM | Paul, special teams are very important in every game. How do you see this matchup? I like our Special Turner in that department. |
| 2:32 PM | Tibbs takes it 2 yards deep in end zone out to the 21. |
| 2:33 PM | Uh....Timeout Reagan? |
| 2:34 PM | Duncan for 2.... Then Cade with a laser to Tibbs deep. First down at HC 49. |
| 2:35 PM | Duncan with a strong run and when cut at the ankles, he pulls a one-handed hand-stand to gain another 6. |
| 2:36 PM | Inside the 20.....Cade pressured over left guard....intentional grounding. |
| 2:37 PM | 4th down and 15.... Cade with a strike to Drew Ureste for a first down, but ball is jarred loose. HC ball. |
| 2:40 PM | H with an INC on first down. The QB runs for a first down to their 48. Ese with a tackle for a loss and another tackle for no gain. 3-13 |

| 2:44 PM | Duncan follows Kerstetter, paving the way for a first down. |
| 2:45 PM | Cade's pass is almost intercepted, then Reggie gets an unsportsmanlike penalty. 2nd and 24. |
| 2:46 PM | Cade goes up the middle for 2....3rd and a mile. Bormet's throw into double coverage is intercepted after being intended for Reed. |
| 2:47 PM | Dimando on the tackle after the slip screen. Holding on H results in a 1-16 at their 39. Eatman with a tackle after the completion for a gain of 3. |
| 2:49 PM | Incomplete on 2nd down. 3-13....slip screen to the right side yields a first down at the RR 45 |
| 2:51 PM | Fox and Andersen on a tackle for a loss of 5. Great defense for a stop on the screen for no gain. 3-15....penalty on H chop block brings up 3-29 |
| 2:52 PM | On the draw Andersen shuts it down. H to punt. |
| 2:53 PM | Sub-optimal punt...Reagan ball at on 45. |
| 2:54 PM | Cade flushed hard again from the left. Running for his life and has to throw it away. |
| 2:55 PM | Paul....Not a great start for either team. H looks pretty physical. |
| 2:56 PM | Cade to Drew....GREAT catch by Ureste on sideline, but there is holding on the defense and it is an automatic first down Reagan. |
| 2:57 PM | After short gain, Cade throws too high for Tibbs. 3rd and 8. |
| 2:58 PM | Cade with a dart to Tibbs. Justin lays out to catch it and it hits the ground. Reagan punt. |
| 2:59 PM | Defense is stepping it up. Portillo on the tackle. H going backwards two plays in a row. 3-16 on the H 14. |
| 3:01 PM | Holding after a long run. 3-12......Pass was incomplete but RR called for pass interference. H 1-10 at their 35. |

| 3:08 PM | Swing pass to Marquis is snuffed out quick. 3rd and 13 Reagan. |
| 3:09 PM | Cardinal front is killing us. No gain. |
| 3:10 PM | Paul.. Lots of stunting by H on their defensive front. Causing confusion on our blocking. |
| 3:11 PM | Auto-turner pounds a 44-yarder that would have been good from 50. Excellent hold by Ahrens. 3-0 Rattlers. |
| 3:11 PM | SPECIAL TEAMS! |
| 3:13 PM | H 1-10 on their 25... Killeen with the long PBU. 2-10.... |
| 3:13 PM | Grant....I see the defensive stunts too. They are all over the gaps. We should shut down splits and start some hand-to-hand combat. Their backers are all over the field. They came to play. |
| 3:14 PM | Nifty run pass option for five yards. 3-5.... Incomplete pass brings up 4th down and ANOTHER H punt. Gilliam deep. |
| 3:16 PM | Andersen with the punt block and Ese with the fumbling bumbling stumbling recovery in the endzone for a Rattler TD!!!!!!! |
| 3:16 PM | SPECIAL TEAMS X2 |
| 3:18 PM | Excellent coverage on the kickoff |
| 3:20 PM | Short gain on 1-10 sets up 2-9. Gang tackling by the defense!! |
| 3:22 PM | False start sets up 2-14..... Andersen on the blitz....SACK for a loss of 13. |
| 3:22 PM | Time management Grant....we should have time to score again. |

| 3:24 PM | Killeen saves the Rattlers!!! Spencer took the punt down the sideline and cut back to middle and fumbled....Killeen dives on it. |
| 3:25 PM | Marquis up the gut to the HC 2. First and goal RR. |
| 3:25 PM | Multiple flags and a scuffle on the field... |
| 3:27 PM | Holding on RR, but Unsportsmanlike penalty on HC. REAGAN FIRST DOWN AT 7. |
| 3:28 PM | 2nd down from the 7. Reed lined up man-to-man with what appears to be a small boy. Next to River, we are all short. |
| 3:30 PM | Fade from Cade a little too low for River. Then a chop-block call on Justise moves ball back to 23. |
| 3:31 PM | Cade's third down throw is incomplete....here comes Turner! |
| 3:32 PM | Auto-Turner boots through one from 40. Of course, would have been good from 50. 13-0. Grant....kicking is like a video game for Davidson....crazy accurate. |
| 3:32 PM | Paul... Give me some more SPECIAL TEAMS and Automatic TURNER!!!! |
| 3:35 PM | Well....it doesn't take much football IQ to know you can't win a ton of games giving away opportunities for TD's inside the 15 and settling for 40+ yard FG's. |
| 3:35 PM | End of the half. It was a great effort on SPECIAL TEAMS in the first half. Paul, offensively we will need to figure out the defensive stunts so we can move the ball effectively. |
| 3:37 PM | Grant....Don't get me wrong, I love seeing Turner kick, but I would much rather see 6. |
| 3:39 PM | Paul...I agree but points are points especially when HC is playing great defense. Our D really stepped it up with pressure in the second quarter. I think we've figured out their Offense. |
| 3:41 PM | Grant, I hear you. The defensive front movement from our friends from down south is problematic. We have 2 false starts and 3 holding penalties in the first half. I will assume that this is getting fixed in the locker room, as it usually does. |
| 3:45 PM | Definitely sloppy on the penalties and that has hurt the offense especially with field position and putting them behind the chains. Allows the defense to rush our QB in obvious passing downs. |
| 4:00 PM | Preparing to begin 2nd half. Grant....we are kicking, you're up. |
| 4:04 PM | Deep kick to the HC 2 yardline and the inexplicable downing of the ball. 1-10 on their 5. |
| 4:05 PM | HC with a complete pass and first down. Reyes on the tackle. |
| 4:06 PM | Staffier stuffs the run for a loss of 2 2-12... Incomplete pass brings up 3-12. |
| 4:07 PM | Short gain. HC to punt. Gilliam deep. |
| 4:08 PM | Reagan ball at our own 45. Let's see what adjustments were made in the blocking scheme. |
| 4:09 PM | Marquis for 5, Marquis for 15.....he is so fun to watch in space. |
| 4:10 PM | Marquis up the middle, out right, shakes two defenders and gets a great block from Ureste....Touchdown RR. WHAT A RUN! |
| 4:11 PM | Duncan touches ball on 4/5 plays on first drive of second half.... Works for me Grant. |
| 4:12 PM | Deep kick and nice tackle by Pharris. Block in the back puts the ball on their 5 yardline |
| 4:13 PM | Two straight up the gut runs brings the ball out to the 31 yardline. |
| 4:14 PM | Short gain on first down and second down. DLine stepping up. 3-5 Incomplete pass brings up 4th down. Gilliam deep. |
| 4:15 PM | Cody Fox had a blocked punt in his sites. The punter somehow kicked it under his arm. Spencer runs to 50, block in back. |
| 4:17 PM | Reagan from their 38. Duncan for 9. Nice hole up the middle by the OL. |
| 4:18 PM | RR moving ball now 2nd down from HC 35. Duncan dropped for a loss, 3rd and long. |
| 4:19 PM | Cade to Carrington in the flat.... Wide-open and dropped, forcing a punt. |
| 4:21 PM | Great punt. HC takes over on their 5 yardline. Nice run on first down for another first down at their 15. Johns on the tackle. 2-8. Short gain brings up 3-7 |
| 4:22 PM | The D brings pressure and forces an incompletion. Gilliam deep. |
| 4:23 PM | Gilliam takes punt through several defenders and brings it to the HC 24. Great return. |
| 4:23 PM | Reagan looking good starting the 2nd half!! |
| 4:24 PM | Bormet with a perfect strike to Ureste. Good for 24 yards and another Reagan score. Nice separation by Drew in man coverage with no safety help. I bet on Drew every time in that scenario. |
| 4:25 PM | Paul...looks like the Rattlers have figured out HC. |
| 4:26 PM | Johns on the tackle on the kickoff. HC 1-10 on the 25 |
| 4:27 PM | On 2-8 Gilliam comes up strong from the safety spot to make the tackle. 3-4. HC up the middle for a first down. |
| 4:29 PM | Hard to believe the same running back in this game went for 200 against Reagan a year ago. |
| 4:31 PM | HC 1-10 from the 50. Defense swarms to the screen pass for no gain. Dimando and Andersen on the tackle. 3-4....nice flare pass to the RB for a first down. |
| 4:31 PM | Hopefully that is just a stinger for Kyle Anderson....he's one tough hombre. |
| 4:34 PM | 1-10 on the RR 40. Short gain on first. Complete pass for a first down to the RR 14 Two runs up the middle sets up 3-4. |
| 4:35 PM | Terrible call....that ball was totally uncatchable. |
| 4:36 PM | Pass interference on third down. HC 1-goal at the RR 2. Stuffed on first down but HC finds the crease on second down for the score. |
| 4:37 PM | Marquis deep...Rattlers expecting onsides kick. They were right, ball fielded by Drew. |
| 4:38 PM | Bormet still at QB, Duncan for 9. |
| 4:39 PM | Brandon Smth, starting left guard, is hobbling badly. That could be a huge loss. |
| 4:40 PM | 2nd down......Marquis for a 41-yard TD. I WISH YOU COULD HAVE SEEN THIS ONE!!! |
| 4:41 PM | Brandon is tough as nails. He'll be okay. |
| 4:42 PM | Sweep left...Duncan is hit 6 times, once going to a hand on the ground, only to spin and catch full stride in about a 1/2 second. Amazing..... |
| 4:43 PM | Let's get these starters out and keep our boys healthy. |
| 4:44 PM | Great coverage again on the kickoff. HC 1-10 on their 25 Gilliam on the tackle. Defense pushes them back for a loss on second down. 3-13. Incomplete pass. Gilliam deep for the punt. |
| 4:46 PM | Paul.. They heard you |
| 4:46 PM | Reagan ball at own 16. Tibbs will QB the second unit and promptly runs to 29. |
| 4:47 PM | Sanudo for 2... Puma goes for -1... |
| 4:48 PM | Reggie on a short pass from Tibbs. Trucks a corner and safety for a first down. |
| 4:49 PM | Puma for 5. J.T. takes the ball all the way down to the HC 16. Great run by Tibbs down the right sideline. |
| 4:50 PM | 2nd unit in for RR. 2 false starts followed by a Sierra 26 yard TD. |
| 4:51 PM | Puma had a great run for that score, cutting back inside at the 10. |
