With CT coaching my money would be on the Mustangs. Slot T would be stopped dead in its tracks. In addition this current WOS team would not be in fourth place limping into the playoffs. Unfortunately this WOS staff will be out coached and out executed. Lack of discipline and untimely penalties will doom the Mustangs. Too many quality kids and families to not have the very best coaching they can get. It’s very tough watching the Mustang football program become just another program. Years of hard work blood sweat and tears to build a juggernaut of a program all being dismantled at an alarming rate. Our kids and community deserve better. We can do better!

I will say the same if they are competitive for the next year or 2..

Sticking with the thread title: does Lumberwood and LSM have physical speed and atmospheric atmosphere? If so what's that all about?😁 Watch this @NDNation @BMTSoulja1 @RaiderGirl22

There is no way the weather can get any worse than the game in 2018, unless it’s a hurricane. Safe travels to everyone and crank it up TigerNation we riding that playoff road all the way to AT&T. TigerNation!!!

I thought they were referring to Crosby. 🤦🏾‍♂️

Reading this thread I'm just: 👀🥤🍿

Russian collusion! Every Dems talking point in 2016. Blow your smoke elsewhere

AI's prediction: It is difficult to predict the outcome of a sporting event with certainty, as there are many factors that can influence the result. However, I can provide you with some information that may help you make an informed prediction. West Orange-Stark Mustangs, Record: 5-5 Strengths: High-powered offense, experienced quarterback Bellville Brahmas, Record: 10-0 Strengths: Strong defense, experienced running back Based on each team's record and game statistics, the Bellville Brahmas have the advantage in this contest. They have a better record, allow fewer points per game, and have a powerful running back. However, the West Orange-Stark Mustangs have a high-powered offense and an experienced quarterback, so they should not be counted out. Ultimately, the outcome of this game will depend on which team plays better on the day. If the West Orange-Stark Mustangs can limit their turnovers and make a few big plays, they could pull off an upset. However, if the Bellville Brahmas can control the clock and run the ball effectively, they should be able to win this game. Here is my prediction: Bellville Brahmas 32, West Orange-Stark Mustangs 26

Hey, better than last year. You never know what will happen. That's why they play the game. Could it be a butt wippen? Heck yeah. Go in there dogs and play loose. Go in there as if you own the place. You might wake up some old echoes.

Where I work has nothing to do with this, and I didn't think this was a right or wrong situation. It doesn't affect me in anyway. Schools across the state have opted up for years. I'm called biased for my PNG background and now HJ lol. My parents went to TJ. Grandparents to Hemphill and Orange. So let's throw some more in there haha. We'll leave out the cousins a HF, Bridge City, etc.

You mean the team lumberton is 8-23 against all time? Yeah.. "luck"

I'm old school and I like just two teams going to playoffs. But, I'm good with 4 teams as long as every district has a minimum 7-8 teams. I don't like 4 teams going out of a district that has just 4-6 teams in it. A team should be required to win more district games than they lose or at least be .500 to get a playoff spot. I have seen some playoff teams only win one district game and actually seen a team go without winning a district game because they were in a district with just 4 teams. I could care less what a teams overall record is because non-district games don't factor in and some teams schedule harder than others in non district. But IMO, a team should have at minimum a .500 record in district play to qualify.

MouthSmash is just enjoying his high horse were just trying to wind him up.

Always count on the area 4A fans to provide us weekly entertainment 😎

But they don’t have Achane and Hornsby.

I see spelling is not high on the curriculum in Lumberton, but again I figured as much coming from the eyesore between Beaumont and Silsbee.

we did though come back from a 17 point lead they had on us at midway of the third quarter.

I think they're riding on the coat tails of WOS. Success by geography, I guess. They're kinda like Uncle Rico talking about what could have been... I'm from Lumberton. Played there, raised athletes there, announced football games there, ran the booster club there... I know who we are and who we aren't. Winning tradition? No. Mecca? Definitely not. Going to the 4th round? Probably not. Current undisputed District Champions (ahead of the Bears)? Damn Right! Lol. It's just funny to see the guys tout LSM like they are state contenders year in and year out. Just having some fun with the guys who fizzled out after the 12th grade...

I'd take Fort Bend Marshall's defense everyday and twice on Sunday

Bellvillesports.com is still waiting to hear from the UIL if they are gonna be permitted to broadcast the game. Will by noon tomorrow at the latest

Cosby needs to sign Joe Willis to a long term contract

HJ will get the nod. They got a guy in the UIL.

If you look at our schedule… our closest game was a 31-3 win over Navasota who yes finished the year 4-6 and missed the playoffs but also beat 4A D1 #9 Bay City 30-26. That game Bellville struggled on offense in the first half and was only up 3-0 at halftime. Then went on to out score Navasota 28-3 in the second half. Probably doesn’t mean much but Bellville beat them worse than 4A D1 #4 Iowa Colony (37-21) as well… We can argue regular season schedules and strength of schedule all we want which is fine it’s good cooler talk but at the end of the day tomorrow night is what matters. I think it’s two good teams regardless of records and I think Bellville wins by a couple scores in a close one. Silsbee, HF, and Jasper didn’t blow out WOS and neither will we.

Good luck Mustangs. Hope y'all get the W

He must ve not read the side effects…..oh wait Dr. Fauci was his dr. He put total trust in him so he didn’t feel the need to read side effects. it all makes sense now

Whatever is prescribed for TDS

I voted for him.

That’s not the right answer. The right answer is you don’t know who “they” are, so you couldn’t know what their reason is and whether or not it’s a good reason. To quote @Majestyk, you talk like a man with a wooden neck.

I watched it. It is one man’s propaganda. He gives up his hurt feelings agenda within the first couple of minutes. He drew his conclusion and then searched out another propagandist and anecdotal evidence that agreed with him.

Maybe, just maybe, steep hills and big electric buses aren’t ready for prime time.

Yep. Why HF is competitive now

People won't like thier reason but its actually a good move. Kids these will jump ship if you lose in football and morale in the community goes down. Just look at WB. 20 kids transferred out in Aug last yr b/c of the losing.

Yes, the link posted up above in this thread for the Forney broadcast. Our broadcast "should" be on the Port Arthur ISD YouTube channel.

Great job by the FBW staff. They seemed to improve all season long and finished higher than most anticipated. I’m glad the Dogs played them early in the season because I’m not sure we would beat them now.

There ya go…What they got to lose. Get #1 the ball however you can. He can be a difference maker.

Anyone that thinks it's WOS wanting to move up should consider our overall athletics record over the past year and a half. We would not be #1 in 4ad1. Maybe top 10 for 3ad1?

Me and @BMTSoulja1 was talking awhile back about that. We knew about the BMT Bowl before MCM.

Makes scheduling a little easier. You can line up things for varsity down to junior high. It's also nice to compete against teams in middle school/junior high all the way up. My middle school district was Groves, Port Neches, Woodrow Wilson (Lincoln), West Orange, Bridge City, Little Cypress, Mauriceville. We moved up to 5A, but when we dropped back down my junior year that's who we played again. I don't have a strong opinion or another, but the UIL has allowed this to happen in the past. Until they stop opt-ups for any reason, this will happen.

Per the UIL website - W17 Barbers Hill (41-7) vs. W21 College Station (35-12) Friday 7pm at Merrell Center (6301 S Stadium Ln, Katy, TX 77494) W20 Huffman Hargrave (32-14) vs. W23 Salado (37-10) Friday 6pm at Bryan High School (3450 Campus Dr, Bryan, TX 77802)

Which with Bridge City probably going 4A D1 due to enrollment it isn’t them

Well the Qb grandfather was an all American and his dad was a great athlete hopefully the apple don't fall to far from the tree and the young man can pick up a win

You are correct, I can't let go. They are supposed to be neutral. I hope they get refs from outside the metroplex.

They do. The broadcast starts about 15 minutes prior to kickoff. [Hidden Content]

wait a min. He played RB? Baller

Unfortunately, I hate to say this, but I think the end result of this game will show the fallacy of 4 teams in the playoffs. The playoffs used to be something of pride. Now for the first and second place teams it still is. Why did they go to 3 and 4? Is it playoff money for schools? The touchy-feely thought of working towards "everybody gets a participation ribbon?" I tend to lean towards the former. If it's the latter, why not allow all the teams to make the playoffs? Come close the circle and complete the joke! Ned beating all the weak teams to gain a "playoff" spot, really, is this a badge of honor? If you end up getting embarrassed because you really shouldn't be there, where's the honor? Concerning this, being the tallest midget in the room doesn't help much! I'm more concerned with the UIL changing this so not to put teams like this in an bad situation. I've seen 2-8 and 3-7 teams make the playoffs. Really?! Thoughts?!

As a Bellville fan…. I’d say your Jumping it a ton… I’ve watched every Bellville game and I’m still curious how this week will go vs WOS… IMO we just haven’t played anyone that will punch us in the mouth. If Bellville made it past the third round I would honestly be very surprised and I’m just being blunt… Now if we come out and beat WOS by 3-4 TDs I’ll be a little more confident after that but I don’t think that will be the case. As far as Carthage goes you would be better off thinking about Silsbee or Cuero 😂😂

True story

Noted. Just was giving my run down with a little more knowledge of what this district has/returns. The whole Crocket at #25 is what I questioned on the preseason rankings post. Just not sure that's very accurate. Not saying they won't be competitive, just doubt they deserve to be that high considering what they lost and from my understanding of what they are bringing back. Shepherd did make the playoffs but only on the heels of a total implosion by Coldspring, including losing their second best and biggest player to grades then fired their coach mid-district. Shepherd will return a pretty decent sized big with some skill, but by far their best player graduated. We both agree that Onalaska is on their way. They get the benefit of not losing kids to football and their coach pushes them hard. He's made a lot of progress there and my hats off to him for it. I just feel that Tarkington (call me a homer... haha) have the best chemistry and well rounded team coming into the season. Unfortunately they will be a little rusty coming from football so the first part of the season could be spent shaking off "football shape", but hopefully they will get in a groove early and only get better as the season progresses.
