Port Arthur. I like our chances advancing this year

I'm struggling to understand the mental gymnastics it takes to blame this shutdown on anyone other than the left when the right has already passed a clean CR pushing no republican agenda to open the govt back.

I agree about the opt up. It should only be for schools with major travel issues. (i.e. El Paso, etc.) Not for schools that are are only traveling 60 or less miles. BC, HJ and Liberty all opted up for competition reasons. Not travel. You'll never convince me otherwise. I can see BC opting up because they are actually very close to DI numbers anyway. HJ and Liberty are not even close. Also, I am not all that hip on all the other sports going to divisions but if that is how it's going to be, then have divisional districts like football and not decide the divisions after district play. That actually allows a larger school to get in D2 depending on who makes playoffs. If they do go with divisional districts this next realignment for all sports (I am hearing they won't) then schools that opt up for football should have to play all the rest of their sports in that football district. You shouldn't be able to pick and choose what sport you want to opt up in and not.

This not a 50/50 game. Montgomery’s offense relies heavily on their running back #1. Their passing game is average. Their defense is adequate. They haven’t played a PNG caliber team yet. PN-G 35 Montgomery 17

51 years since last Distric championship, this team is special. Coaching is fantastic, Boys playing hard week in and week out. Lots of History being made this season for the Hardin Hornets Football Program.

This was a good game to watch. PNG needed a game like this. I gotta give it to the Montgomery coach’s for their defensive halftime adjustments. They completely shut the run game down after getting run over in the first half. Each time when it looked like Montgomery was going to take the game over our coach’s would make a good play call on both sides of the ball. This coaching staff just knows how to win football games! Hopefully we don’t let them get away anytime soon! The catch and run that Jackson made before the half was a huge play in the game. That was one hell of a catch and run. He made up for all of the dropped touchdowns this season on that one play. If he ever gets consistent with his hands, look out because he is fast and can jump! I look for big things out of him in the next couple of seasons. Great job Indian’s!

Not sure who predicted a blowout, but Ill take an 8 point DC win any day, I love this game. A team needs a good hard fought game to get ready for the playoffs. If the radio stats are correct PN-G hung a 500 on them. PN-G hasn't given up over 38 points this season. 38 tonight, 29 to Huntsville and no one else has scored more than 21 this season. An average of 18 ppg. Allowing a total of 166 points. While scoring just under 400. for 44 PPG. Still have a game against Dayton. Looking forward to facing our Purple Brothers from across the river. I believe Coach Joseph is now 50 and 6 as PN-Gs coach and 15-1 in 1 score games. We are very lucky to have the coaches that we do. Also the very impressive QB from Montgomery hasn't threw a pic this season. The Indians put the pressure on him and got two pics. and held him to a QBR of 39,4. Was it the greatest night for PN-G? No. However they played a hell of a game and won against a great football team. Hats off to Montgomery for playing a great football game. PNG-s defense held RB Ben to 105 yards. That in itself is a statement. That kiddo is a hoss.. PNG won this game with pressure the second half causing their great QB to be unable to get set to pass the ball. Great game Indians and hats off to Montgomery for playing a hell of a game again.

This was a playoff game. Hopefully we learned a lot. Defense went through a refiner’s fire tonight. We need to get better from it.

PNG gets the ball to start the 2nd half. I don’t think Montgomery can stop them. PNG just needs to limit Montgomery’s big plays. They have some dudes.

Landon Smith - Senior combo guard at Brookeland - special player if you have not seen him yet Three time District MVP, Three Time TABC All Region Team, Two Time TABC All State Team Will surpass 3000 career points early this season and will become the All time Leading scorer in the history or Brookeland Basketball Career Record as a starter at Brookeland 87-23 (41-1) 27 points, 4 assist, 7 rebounds, 3 steals per game last season

I appreciate this explanation of the mental gymnastics, but I already knew what it looked like. Are you dizzy yet? The fact is Democrats are trying to hold the country hostage and force through policy that they can't pass through regular means because their party is such a dumpster fire they've managed to lose control of all branches of government over the last 4 years. They then have the gall to blame republicans for democrats not giving the votes needed to open the government back up, and a lot of their base is dumb enough to believe it. The problem for the left is that the moderate voters are NOT dumb enough to believe it. So while the lunatic fringe may rally around this foolishness and go join a protest and burn something down or whatever it is they do when they're mad, the left is hemorrhaging even more swing and moderate voters through this stunt. The left is like a kid who isn't good enough to win so they take their ball and go home so nobody can play and then blames everyone else for the game ending.

I think this is the elephant in the room that no one wants to address. There are so many people that work crappy jobs to support themselves and their families and never think getting government assistance. Yet there are TOO MANY that just accept Government assistance. We somehow have to convince people they will he happier and have a sense of pride when they work and EARN a living..... My Father taught me several things, but his most important were life lessons......here are the ones that stuck with me (that I also taught my Son) 1. There is no embarrassment in having a low wage job - embarrassment is when you have no job. 2. When you are at work, if there is nothing to do, grab a shovel and dig a hole......when you're done, if there is still nothing to do, fill it up. Repeat until there is something to do lol 3. Never place your hands in your pocket when you are at work, that is a sign of lazy. So basically his thoughts were there is no reason to not have a job. He worked an instrument mechanic for "Gulf" and very good at that job. When they would strike, he would go work at the Orange Rice Mill slinging sacks of rice off the trains, or work at a body shop, painting cars. He was a worker! THAT is the mentality we need to establish in 2025 - too many people expect things for free and the Government has also been a player making it too easy to get free stuff.

I expect PNG to win this by 10-14 points....I'm not 100% sold on Montgomery yet...

Great idea. Hope it works out for you.

Its never happened before but I think Hardin gets to the 3rd Round

Newton

PN-G in the last 3 years has been State Finalists, State Champions and Quarter-Finalists. This 2025 team has the structure in place and the model to follow. They have their own identity and are blazing their own trail. This team will be playing in December.

Dayton by as much as they want -

According to the cal guy, probably 56-0 PN-G

Uncle spidey???

My sophomore year at Hardin we moved from 2A to 3A for the first time. We played our former 2A opponents as non district games and were undefeated going into district. I was a starting LB and I’ll never forget coming from small town Hardin into Beaumont and playing in this huge stadium lol. I think we won 2 or3 district games, I’ll always wonder about “what could have been” if we had stayed 2A that year. Johnny Marsh at QB, Anthony Scott and Daniel Marsh at running backs, man what a team that was. I’m super proud of this years team, way to go boys!!

Man, that was top notch play. We need all of those tonight

I hope you are right but you can’t even Spell sophomore.

The right is offering a clean bill. The left, who as you point out has zero branches of control, is trying to hold the bill hostage to force liberal policy. But it's the right's fault. It's wild watching you guys spin it. It's gonna hurt y'all in the long run, though. The fringe lunatic left are the only ones actually buying it. I guess it makes sense that the party of entitlement thinks they're entitled to get something they want out of an unrelated bill to keep the government open and then blames everyone else when they don't get it. But hey, keep alienating those swing voters and moderates. Y'all already have the SNAP vote, so the republicans aren't losing anything there. Besides, it's not like most of them can't figure out who's really behind this all anyway.

and that game will be 1 hour and 45 minutes.

You might need some Probiotics for that gut.

Meh, i'd still give the advantage to Shepherd.

Also, no job is beneath you when you have no job.

One thing people are seeing during the schumer shutdown is how many people rely on the government for food. 3.5 million Texans alone will lose food stamps. In a state of 31 million. 11% of Texans rely on federal money to eat. That is not help and assistance, that is lack of drive and will power for one's self and family. Living off the government has become a career for many (not all but many). As with everything the government touches it cannot properly oversee and run things. And they want to oversee our healthcare.

I was going to go to Montgomery-PNG, but I understand that game is going to be a blowout. So, I’ll probably go to Nederland-Huntsville. Rather see a closer game.

Coldspring with the upset. 8-6

Pretty sure LaPorte is a very solid team and we held them to 21 points on their turf. They have one of the best RB in the state. Klien Oak also has a very good RB in the state. PNG stop both those backs and we will stop Montgomery running game no doubt. If Montgomery can’t pass, it will be a very long Halloween night for them.

You can’t bring up average scores per game and compare. PNG would probably average a ton more points if the majority of their games weren’t over at Halftime. Playing 3rd and 4th string players on both sides. Montgomery will keep it close for a bit but PNG will pull away in the second half for another double digit win.

Barrow was given a bunch of snotty, spoiled brats who didn’t adhere to or care about rules his last few years yet he still tried his hardest to instill professionalism and morals into them like always. Two things about Barrow are that he can turn mediocrity into greatness and young boys into men, but the kids have to want it. I think it’s been long enough that you people should stop blaming the state of bulldog football on Monte Barrow and maybe start looking at yourselves and your sons.

His predictions were wild and his analysis couldn’t have been different than what happened tonight… Montgomery tested PNG tonight. PNG answered the test and stepped up when it matter the most… congrats to PNG home playoff game at the Rez and looks like another District Championship.

At zero point was this remotely close. And CS only scored because of a questionable pass interference call in the end zone. Hardin dominated from start to finish. Both sides of the field.

!!:35/28/F

!!:56/21/4

!!:36/25/H Jackson just caught a huge 70-ish yd pass and catch with 7 seconds left in the half

I gotcha my first ever attempt

Had a PNG fan on fb claiming this one would be a blowout and basically implying I was an idiot because I said Montgomery was going to score some points this game. He claimed they would only score against the PNG backups once the blowout had happened. I hope he’s on here and sees this, and I also hope the Indians figure this out and get the win.

Gonna be a tough one. Got to have our heads on straight

Just think what Peevy could do with WOS talent

All-district a lot of times is coaches in their feelings. We got hosed last year lost 1 game in district and win district championship but because of how we played we got penalized. We had 1 superlative (a team that didn’t make the playoffs got the defensive mvp superlative). And I didn’t come close to winning coach of the year. All stuff the kids and I still remember and will make sure shows up come district time.

Zero chance HJ would have made the playoffs in D2.

"travel"

I dont see either of them opting up. Those schools don't run from competition

Woodward didn't give Jimbo the extension. He left for LSU and people thought he would steal Jimbo, so we freaked out and guaranteed his entire contract.

If you listen to Holton Pepper on TV, it sounds like OF is the team without much of a chance on Friday. He said 3A all goes through EC, and he didn't even mention undefeated, state ranked (likely) District Champ Hardin. LOL

I am hearing that WOS and HF could possibly opt. up, can anyone confirm or deny this?
