Silsbee stopped WOS on 3rd down 3 or 4 times and a big 3th down earlier. I see why Coach Thompson punted in the 4th. 

Yeah but silsbee had all the momentum and everyone knew when they punted on 4th and inches that they weren’t gonna stop silsbee. I can see why the mustang faithful are aggravated. Of course the fact that the punt got tipped didn’t help either lol

Silsbee was a MASH unit on the defensive side of the ball. Already down 4 starters on that side (more like 4 Stars), Tigers lost two more (Stars) during the game. There were 3-4 players on the D-Line that had seen very limited action all season. It was definitely a "next man up" situation for Silsbee.

Also props to freshman ILB Jayron Williams. He got his first start last night (due to some of those injuries) and he showed out!! Great game!

Yea, didn't look good for Roundtree...

And that freshman balled out last week too.  You can't beat playoff experience...

Direct quote from WO-S HC Cornell Thompson: "We have been dogs chasing cars all season and we finally caught one".

Classic!!!

The way some talked, everything could go Silsbee's way (breaks) and they still would not be good enough to beat the Mustangs.

I disagree, I could see these teams playing 10 times and each would win 5 of them.

[L-Train11]

Silsbee can’t seem to win district but owns the region for the last two years.. a problem most teams would love to have!

[MBaller#1]

You know if Wo-s would have went for it on 4th and inches and didn’t make it then people would have said they were stupid for going for it with wo-s defense it was a good thing to punt their defense just didn’t get the job done but both teams deserve to win unfortunately only 1 team can Silsbee made more plays than WO-S much respect for the Mustangs and Good Luck to Silsbee.

[MBaller#1]

Who wants to win district when the #  2 spot is the way to go lol it’s the best road to the state semifinals.

I have a question, 2 plays didn’t really matter in the end,  but the ball we recovered in the first quarter  and the fumbled kick off in the second.  Were they the correct calls.  I had a bad angle on the first one and the second looked like he was down but I will be the first to admit my eyesight isn’t the greatest anymore.

That fumble on the kickoff shouldn't have been a fumble.  #11 for Silsbee ran, and slid (like a QB does), then guys tackled him, then the ball came out.  He should've been considered down once his knees hit the ground.

Now, I did have a bad angle on that WO-S fumble with the pass in the flat

  It looked like an incomplete pass to me, but they called it a fumble and Silsbee ball...

Better team won. Period.

It was the correct call the Qb threw the ball behind him and it wasn’t forward

Well, that loss last night still stings pretty dang bad. It does make it better knowing we didn’t lose to an inferior team. Awesome season young Mustangs, keep your heads up! Lots of young talent on that team!! Congrats to Silsbee, y’all pulled it off again. Now I’m going to jump on the Tiger bandwagon if you Silsbee faithful will let me, lol,  and follow y’all all the way to Dallas!

Thanks for the vote wos#1 but this idiot is strictly amateur hour. He'd be better off jumping in a lion's den wearing s pork chop vest than squaring off with me, but we all know that don't we?

Squaring off... Lions den.... Great food... Your greatness... GRRRRR!!!! Such fear! Lol

Lighten up princess. It was an inside joke. 

Congratulations Tigers!

They wanted it more. When you have 2 teams so evenly matched with that much talent, it comes down to execution. Bottom line? WOS didn’t execute when needed.

Yep, complete brain fart on that one. It was the correct call.

Does anyone know the attendance for this game?

I would give a good guess and say 4500-5000 what I was told.

It was more.  Stands was near capacity and the visitors parking lot was full.  Stadium capacity is 10,600.  So that number was pretty close to 10k...

Wow!!! The upper deck on Silsbee side had plenty of room it seems. Never saw WOS side.

I disagree. I would say it was around 7,000.

[setxathlete14]

Yeah silsbee won but I feel like West Orange beat themselves. I have a hard time saying silsbee was the better team

WO-S bottom level was full.  The top level has 4 sections.  2 sections was all the way full.  The 2 sections right below the press box was half full.  I couldn't see Silsbee's top level...

You're  obviously being biased then.

Great outing for everyone that went. You got a chance to see the 2 best 4A D2 teams in the region local for $10. I think Silsbee has 2 more wins in them.
