It’s comical to me when places recruit a super team then feel pride despite the fact that they couldn’t win with the talent they had on hand. Especially when you think what would happen if schools like PNG were willing to ignore the rules with all of the resources at their disposal. I’d rather lose with our kids that grew up here than win with some kids who stopped here for part of a season.

This morning I was watching CNN, as I often do to see the other side.....usually I can only take a few minutes. They were speaking on the boat attack, that CNN went all out on the "kill them all" narrative, from one "anonymous" source, that should of never been seriously reported on, and as most reasonable people assumed, it was not true. So, now they were questioning if the second strike should have occurred, STILL calling it a possible war crime (when I know THEY KNOW, that is not true) - When there is a mission to eliminate a target, if the first shot does not get it, there is always a second shot, no matter who's around. My point of that rant, is if all you watch is CNN and related media, I can see where UT and BG get their opinions......

Hey! Don’t knock it! 😆 Had chopped steak with baked sweet potatoes last night. Went fancy with a slice of sharp cheddar on the steak, and last of the leftover jellied cranberry sauce. All followed by an excellent cup of black Folgers with 4 Walmart butter cookies. Who remember tuna & gravy on toast? Yep. Meal of champions. 😂😱🤣 Of course, Sunday dinner was always cornbread & milk (cornbread actually in the milk), and mustard/turnip/mixed greens, and pinto beans. No ham. Just beans.

I can only think of one starter at SOC who transferred in this year...a WR from Skyline and I think Morton moved in 2.5 yrs ago....vast majority of those kids have been at SOC since their freshman year to my knowledge

Let me Comment on the fact that I now have 60 years of going to PNG Football under my belt. I have seen the best, and the worst that the Indian Nation Fans have had to endure, and/or celebrate over these seasons. Regardless, we have always had a solid fan base. Whether we won 1 game, or multiple many win seasons the Indian Football team has had it's fans supporting them 100%. Well all of the Indian Football Fans support them 100%, not all of the PNG Indian Purple Pride Band Fans, I refer to those who leave after halftime, but I digress. There is no reason to doubt that either team in the PNG vs SOC game tomorrow has a chance to win. THAT IS WHY THE GAME IS PLAYED!!! After this game I will be overjoyed to go to the next round in the playoffs, or be just as overjoyed that my Indian Boys had an incredible season. Indian Fans make a commitment to their football boys!!! Everybody come on down from Dallas & pull for 'dem Bears, Everybody come on up from Mid-County & cheer on those Indian Boys. I know I will be there, and all future games I am able until the good Lord calls me home. I-N-D-I-A-N-S Scalp 'em Indians, Scalp 'em!!! PNG HAS A SPECIAL SPIRIT, PASS IT ON!!!

South Oak Cliff shares a 20 mile radius with Duncanville, Desoto, Waxahachie, Carter, Kimball, Roosevelt, Sunset, Adamson, Wilmer Hutchins, Lancaster and Red Oak: 6 playoff teams and 3 national contenders. So that whole "super team" thing sounds like tears. Sure, a program's success can serve as a recruitment tool, but anyone in the know will tell you SOC lends out more talent than they get. Duncanville's last 5 star lived in SOC's community. As well as a ton of Desoto's starters. SOC sent more players to the NFL than any other high school long before they sniffed a State Title appearance. The community has ALWAYS been overflowing with talent. SOC's problem has always been inadequate coaching and facilities. Now that they've caught up in those areas, folk are whining about the talent that has always been there. PNG does well to compete wuth the like of SOC, just like any community. Be humble and enjoy the experience

Also you can watch the games on Hudl. BU has there camera on for all the games,,,,

I’m thrilled for this game. Think how many teams wait generations to be in a game like this. Always be faithful.

Yes, this is true, staying focused, and limiting mistakes will be key for us to win. Their QB has been able to do whatever he wanted throwing the ball and running for yardage. I don't know seems like they like to run on the right-side line to pick up long runs and score. We just need to be ready for tick plays as well. Go Mustangs!

A lot more going on here than just pardons for drug traffickers. The U.S. has neglected Central & South America for a long time. Under the Reagan Administration, the U.S. paid special attention to the region, and helped bolster democracies. Interesting that a Democratic Congress that constantly harassed Reagan politically, and tried to sabotage him at every opportunity, almost allowed Communism to flourish in Central/South America all those decades ago for simple political gain at home. Since Reagan, it's been kind of a back-burner issue, and issues have grown to a point where they HAVE to be addressed for REAL National Security purposes. What has happened since? Nicaragua--where we helped the Contras battle the Sandinistas/Communists and establish a democracy--is now a full blown dictatorship under Ortega. In 40 years, he moved the country from a birthing democracy to autocratic rule with help from who? The Sandinistas. Honduras--recent election barely beat back the Marxist/Communist party. Trump succeeded in helping keep the communist party at bay for now. But, he may have opened a can of worms by basically presenting the Executive Branch as above the legal system with his pardon of JOH. Venezuela--no explanation required. Panama/Costa Rica--Still somewhat stable. But, China is exerting a great deal of influence in Panama, and CR--as the historically most stable democracy in Central America--is under economic duress. El Salvador--Recently (July '25) rescinded Presidential term limits. Generally, a first step towards an Autocratic government. These are just a few of the issues. China and Russia are focusing on, and making diplomatic and economic inroads in the region. The Panama Canal is basically being operated by Hutchison Holding (controlled by the CCP), and Panama has joined the Belt & Road Initiative. At any one time, three or four countries in the region flip between Marxism/Communism, Autocracies, or corrupted Democracies. Lately, through neglect by the U.S., the liberal Marxists have taken a real, tangible foothold in the entire region economically, and politically. Russia and China both have military presences in the region now. It appears the Trump Administration has recognized the issues, and is trying to address again. Thus, the pardon. Debatable if it was a good move or not. That's up to smarter people than me and history. But, it appears to have been a way to curb Honduras from becoming another Marxist regime at least temporarily. Sometimes, there aren't any 'good choices.' There's just bad, and worse. That's what happens with neglect and appeasement. As it was when I was more directly involved, if we aren't careful, Mexico will be the only thing standing between us and a Communist China/Russia satellite region called Central America. As I said in the beginning of this post, there's a lot more going on here than drug traffickers.

Bring pressure he doesn't handle it well.cover2 and watch for those screen passes. And we need to throw more to get some of the players out the box to stop jefferson.just keep it close and we will be fine.get it to the 4th quarter.

I didn’t realize there were so many SOC apologists on this fourm so in that light I got one thing to say and I quote -----'----------" GO PNG"----'

True. But, you also don't have to have a POTUS bragging, showing videos that don't need to be shown, and warning the target that clandestine operators are coming. Kind of defeats the purpose of clandestine operators. His big mouth and bravado puts their lives in danger more than necessary. Handle first. Talk about it after folks are out of harm's way as much as possible.

Most if not all Cajun food is poor man's food......Even the seafood was cheap because they caught it....My Dad shrimped on the weekends, sell what he needed to pay for fuel and supplies, and kept the rest.....I actually remember getting "tired" of shrimp and crabs......

Better. You going to the game?

I've seen $2.16 at Vidor Wal-Mart and $2.14 at PA Wal-Mart. Mortgage rates are dropping and some things are going down. Beef/Poultry still high, but perhaps we got spoiled to eat steak daily. .... I was raised in a middle class family, didn't want for anything....steaks were a treat....., eating out at a restaurant was a treat, even fast food was a treat....smothered round steak and gravy over rice was a 2-3 times a week meal. So, I'm not sure this economy is all that bad based on history.

I agree SOC has always had talent but you you can't give too much credit for recent success to coaching when there's blatant recruiting going on.

I don’t like that program any more than the next guy who values fair play, But they’ve definitely gotten over the hump before. Notably, in 2022 when they beat us with a stunning second half comeback.

The PN-G fan base holds the #1 record for attendance at a single game in the United States, at 49,953. Since championship games are multi-game formats now, that record we hold will never be broken. Times have changed since streaming didn't exist back then in the late 70's. And smart phones, computers, and just a different generation. Even when we packed out the entire side of the Astrodome in 1999, the total crowd was only 39, 000. (30,000 PN-G fans and 9,000 Stephenville). Our crowd with SOC in Cowboys Stadium in 2022 was only 32,000 as reported. PN-G's fan base is still top 5 easy. We are also involved in the #1 rivalry game in America too. (Nederland in our district), according to Sports Illustrated. I always thought PN-G owned Friday Night Lights, based on some of these numbers above, as well as the history of state championships to back it up. I think the glory years of 1974-1977 that includes a state championship in 1975, a state finalist in 1977 and two semi-finalists in 1974 and 1976, is about to be broken with a new dynasty forming. 2022: 13-3 State Finalist 2023: 15-1 State Champions 2024; 12-2 State Quarter-Finalist 2025: 13-0 so far...

Baytown Sterling would have to make playoffs for United to go D2. They are the 2nd largest behind West Brook. I don't see that happening.

Brookeland 61 Dayton 60

What schools in the district would have to make the play offs for them to split and one go big school and one go small school? Man, how crazy would it be if Beaumont had 2 state champions in the same year!

Silsbee is not winning district. Bridge City, who is currently ranked #6 in the state, will win district.

There's literally going to be hundreds of PAM fans tailgating starting Saturday at noon. If you get to the stadium early, come see me in the big RV and get your red Titan spirit towel... for Free!!!! I have 100 and they will probably go fast so first come first serve!!!! Go Titans!!!!

Let's get this win Mustangs, it's time to get some payback, they (LAVega) have been disrespectful to our team.

Are you PNG93 on the smoaky forum? Regardless, hope Oak Cliff rolls yall.

We beat them the first time last year then they smoke us the second. Hoping for a swap this year.

We do not just play SOC but the entire city of Dallas where SOC recruits from.

You: *Calls PNG fans ignorant and racist* Also you: "Shoot out some positive thoughts." Geez, oh man. It must be awesome to feel so pure.

Yeah, just don't pull a Silsbee and the Stangs can win this.
