Nope, yall just run from teams.

The best thing that Vidor has ever accomplished. Sing it, y’all!!!

If LCM would have just ran the two TE set like in previous games the game wouldn’t even been close, I talked to a Vidor (source) and the Vidor coaches couldn’t believe that they went back to the spread against them with an average QB throwing the ball, He can scramble though. LCM o line is huge, two TE set (extra blockers) run the ball 70% and they win by a lot.

Puff Daddy would disagree. Lol.

I think I deserve a pass because I’ve been the lone BC athletic supporter here for 6-7 years.

They just wanted a chance to make a playoff game. Nobody expects them to be playing on Turkey day. They will have an easier path to round 1 in 4A D1. Can we all at least agree with that statement? Try leaving the personal stuff in the political forum too.

Oh damn. You've done it now 🤣

I just dont see how vidor loses to LCM by 4, and all of a sudden BC is 21 points better than vidor? Is BC 17 points better than LCM by the same standard?

BC most likely beats Vidor this Friday.. But Kirbyville isn’t beat Vidor if they played

I’ll just leave it put down then.

Dude, I wish it weren't so, but my Raiders ARE an easy out. I still cheer for them every game. Be happy when they win and sad when they lose. But I have no rose-colored glasses on. Unlike our little buddy Left_Back_Two_Times or whatever his names is. He could use a dose of reality! Lmao.

You are sadly mistaken. BC is the armpit of SETX. The redheaded stepchild of SETX. BC claim to fame is what... Bailey's?!?! or a Walmart corndog (its good)?!?!

A UN employee. Why doesn’t that surprise me? The UN is a joke and needs to gather elsewhere.

Sir/Ma'am, everyone West of the Neches and East of Cow Bayou is laughing...

If you opt up to face bigger schools than your classification, that's alpha. Why did Newton collect all of those 1A/JV trophies? Because they, unlike BC, weren't willing to opt up. "We just play who they tell us to" says Newton fan on the way to a blowout win in the second round over some team none of us have ever heard of. Just a couple years back the Lyins from Livingston tried to cheat their way down for a competitive advantage. Not us.... we filled out the form opted up. And I distinctly remember just a few years back when Lum fans were GIDDY about dropping back down to 4A D1... then Vidor felt the same way two years later. All of those those schools and fanbases were ecstatic... they no longer had to face the larger, more talented schools in 5AD2. Every year on snapshot day, Lumberton fans celebrate on this very board if they stay under the 4ad1 cutoff number. Did they "flee" down? Nope.... and we didn't "flee" up to face bigger schools, either. The only people calling it a "Loophole" are the ones that either 1) just got beat by BC or 2) are worried they're about to get beaten by BC. Y'all wouldn't be complaining if we were 0-4 after moving up. That's beta.

Lufkin wins this game, maybe not 56-7, will see.. West Brook is playing at home and Lufkin is coming off the big win over BH, and the Bruins have had two weeks to prepare. The travel won't bother Lufkin, because they've traveled forever as a program. Lufkin has already traveled to Texarkana 3 hrs to play Little Rock SW (W 57-12) and 1.5 hrs to Tyler (W 39-27) . This one is no problem either. The head scratcher in the WB schedule is they played a close game against Eisenhower, then barely beat Lumberton and lost to Silsbee. Something is not quite right when a 5A DI program barely beats a 4A DI school Lumberton and then loses to a 4A DII Silsbee. I think the BWB defense might be the strength of their team while the O struggles to score. Just saying Lufkin, PAM, BH and Ball win over those two 4A teams by several scores and sit the starter after the half. Lufkin will be without a few starters again this week, LB, WR, QB and maybe a RB. Thankful the team has depth this year. Looking forward to off week after Friday to get healthy. Anyway this could easily be a let down game for Lufkin if they are not careful, I think they already know this and are preparing for that not to happen.

It was perfect timing for me, I'd never thought I'd be pulling for BC as an Orangefield alum. I've got family playing for BC now, so naturally I root for them. On another note "fled" is a very accurate description, but it doesn't bother me as much as I see it bothers others. BC is not near the level of program as WOS, Silsbee, HF (In recent years), and Jasper. Opting up to a District where everyone, including the players, think they have a shot only benefits the team. I know what BC is/isn't and some of the claims about them are crazy. BC IS much better than last year, but they are not a deep playoff team from what I've seen so far. Do I think they would beat WOS, Silsbee, HF and/or Jasper? It wouldn't surprise me if they beat one of them, but I don't think they do. However, I don't think it would be blowouts week in and week out like last year. If/When BC is legit, no-one will have to say it.

You 2 entertain me.

I started posting that in hopes that others would post in that thread what games they would be attending that week. Just a fun little thing. BTW, district standings are posted each week. You just need to look harder. Here, I'll hold your hand: [Hidden Content]

I agree with AggiesAreWe, I think 24 hours to post those would be better I would like to hear more comments on the games just played. I would also like to see district standings posted. What I would like to see removed is my weeks schedule

yep one wins and the other one doesn't........

Kerry is a communist pos. Who listens to that putz?

Bridge City has improved, that's a fact!! But what I want to see is what they can do against a a team with a fast, quick defense. I also want to see if they can defend a speedy offense. Can the BC secondary hold up against a strong passing game? I have seen BC twice this season. Scrimmage against Silsbee, game against Orangefield. On the sidelines for both. So I have seen with my own eyes, up close. I just have some doubts what BC could do against some fast, athletic teams. I think they would struggle some. I just don't think they WOULD beat Silsbee, Jasper, HF and WO-S. Could they? Well maybe.

I'm jealous for other reasons. Not the red shirts nor the concession stand. Maybe it's the FREE YouTube broadcasts? Naw. It's the community and kids embracing the new staff and the culture change they brought with them. Winners rub off on others. Cardinal country will no longer be known as a baseball school. Although I expect winning on the gridiron to help on the diamond next spring.

I have been a member of this forum for 16 years......That's longer than both of my marriages COMBINED.......lol

Poor kid from LCM that really was a school project i hope you know 😂

Only one way to find out, the first question will be answered this Friday night around 10:30. The second part on 10/25

He ran that slot unsuccessfully for the most part against 3a competition. Vidor has been very successful with it for a long time. LCM spread Vidor out and almost lost. Y’all will be surprised how good that defense is. If BC gets up 2 scores on Vidor they will have a chance. Don’t let Vidor score first or it will be a long night. If Vidor goes up more than 8 the ball game is over for them Redbirds!!!

Hey, bud.... when you make the drive over to Historic Larry Ward Stadium in scenic Bridge City this Friday night, stop over by the North End Zone... there a monument to our historic State Championship team. Take a good long look at it. That's the closest to greatness you'll ever get.

You do realize that BC's new head coach ran the slot t as late as last season in Orangefield, right? They've seen it. Can they stop it? That's the question. I'm going to go with "yes." I think the real question is whether or not Vidor's "stout defense" can practice against the Slot T all week and suddenly know what to do when a spread offense takes the field on Friday night. It should be a good game between a smaller school that rightfully belongs down a classification and a much, much bigger school who should beat the tiny school hands down. But that's why they play the games, Plum. Give me the Cards to win a huge upset.

And some can't. Like I said, I don't want a flame war all season getting out of hand.

So if they opted up for the challenge of playing larger schools, then why schedule three 3A schools for non district?

Definitely should be a lawyer with an argument like that... Your Honor my client did not do it... he doesn't do dumb sh*t 🤣

No argument here at all. I really like the guard they have. IDK his name but he’s the bright kid that’s about 6’1

You're crazy

I think whoever wins the district is gonna have a hard time with the 4th place team in the first round but the second round should be much easier. You won't catch the district 9 winner until the third round.

I really considered going to this game. Think it will be a good one. Two reasons why I am not going. 1. Just can't pass up that Cita/SC battle. It will be epic! 2. I hate Galveston Tx.

1. 100% agree - and anyone who says the criticism comes from anywhere else ("I'd say it's from pent up jealousy."), and thinking they possibly could win the district they opted out of (for obvious reasons) is silly. Just say, "We ran from the district we were in because it was too hard. It paid off!" That would be fair enough. And though embarrassing to finally admit that, I think it would cut down on the actual criticism of the BC program. I'm happy for them. I hope they do great in their newfound home. I'm just not delusional. 2. It should be gone from there too. Idk why we can't get that curtailed. There's about 3 or 4 that need a vacation.

Curious to see how BC defends the Slot-T, but Smalley did run that offense for a decade plus. I have the Cards winning at home.

Likely the case, like you said it's not their goal. The weaker district thing is true, but a better fit for BC is it not? Idk why people complain about it so much it allows BC to be competitive. It affects no one from the original district. When I said "not a deep playoff team", I was expressing that they are a playoff team in 4A-D1 but won't be for long. Trying to give a realistic opinion of BC because it seems like people think they're hot garbage or the best team in the area🤣 Neither of which is the case

What would the media put on TV if they couldn’t put out misinformation?

Get him!

I get what you’re saying, and I respect your opinion. I personally wish BC would’ve stayed down myself. I can’t speak for the admins that made the decision to opt up. I just hate seeing people run down the progress BC has made. I mean for the past almost decade, BC has been BAD, even in games they have won, they weren’t dominant wins.

It certainly wasn't for travel issues which is why most if not all schools opt up.

I have no dog in this fight. I’m a Raider fan. But I think fled is a pretty good description of what took place.For real. I looked it up in the dictionary. 🤗

Massey Ratings has this game going 35-28 Port Arthur Memorial. DCTF has Port Arthur Memorial as an 11pt favorite currently.

Honestly I think Orangefield gave them the Ole 9 in the box & blitz every gap just like teams did to them for so many years.

I love it when I'm right about the outcome of a PAM Donkey Stompin!!!🤣🤣 *cue the same way Duncanville did to North Shore response*
