Their center of gravity looks a little high right now.

good job PNG! 7-7

Sterling is hapless. This team looks awful. Can yall score like 2-3 so i can watch a different second game?

Nah just having some fun with the dogs. I think yall win this one, but yall do need to figure out how to open up the score a little bit against teams that aren't as good. No way that dogs team should have lost to PNG.

Nederland plays a lot of close games and wins them. I think that's what happens here but just to piss off dogs fans. Sterling 28-27 Nederland.

Yea round 2 and 3 are the games to watch for these teams.

Cool now these dogs need to play like that in the playoffs. Go win some rounds because you played well tonight. Definitely peaking at the right time. Cougars probably needed a wake up call. They will be more prepared next week.

congrats to the dogs

Only Time will tell. I think this is a step up in competition for the Dogs. And Crosby's offense has been on fire, lots of weapons to try and contain. I also think the defense gives Crosby a lot of chances. Yall threw 4 picks versus BH, the Cougars have had 2 or more picks in every game expect TC (for obvious reasons.) I don't think Crosby's offense if they get the same number of possessions and have to drive will score 55, but I think the Cougars will get lots of short field opportunities, and I don't think we take starters out as quickly as we have against other teams. It's very likely in round 2 we will need to play a really good 4 quarters to win and won't be up 4 scores in the 3rd quarter. That being said I doubted the dogs last week and those scrappy kids made it happen so, maybe I'm wrong.

We find out if Nederland are pretenders or contenders this weekend. But an overtime Fumble win over BH, and a 1 point loss to PNG have me believing they are just about as good as those two squads. I think they are getting better as the season goes which is exactly what you want to see in Nederland. But they are facing the team that hasn't been challenged in district. Will Nederland give Crosby a challenge? Maybe. What should we expect? Another game where the cougars roll over DII 12-5a opponents. Crosby 55-14 Nederland

cornerbacks also aren't the fast kids that couldn't catch the ball anymore. Your DB's need ball skills because winning that 50/50 ball is now priority.

Texan Lives "BEST offense in the district" not looking very good tonight.

You'll be asking yourself that question about 10:30PM.

I mean you will be in this one. Eagles gonna put yall to task.

While I think that's true there no guarantee we can beat that second round opponent at this point. I mean they will likely only have one loss to Texas high coming into the second round. Second Round is going to be super tough for anyone who makes it out of round 1 in our district.

Nah, BH, PNG, and Nederland are the games Crosby has circled every year because for these last years those have been the teams that decided who's in and who's out in the district. When we had Manvel and FB Marshall sitting waiting in round 1 that 2-3 matchup mattered even more. Cougars aren't thinking they have this they need to play solid football but so far they've been focused and disciplined even in a potential let down game after the big win over BH.

You literally run a Zone/Zone Read/Fake Zone read on every big play. That's your one trick.

Nederland is a one trick pony, cannot teach old dogs new tricks, dogs get run in this one. BH won't give up 21.

2nd round we would get the #2 out of Texas High's district not Texas high. Round 3 we get Marshall. Regardless it's not a good area of the bracket to be in and R3 for 5AD2 seems like a gauntlet.

I think it's like 42-0 42-7 at half and we do what we've been doing saving Branch and the others in second half. Texas High is going to be a rough challenge no matter what.

NDN's discussing how to beat Willowridge lose big but coaching staff indicates they were watching Willowridge film during the game anyways. Disclaimer: Definitely not on IPADS in the press box.

Crosby 42-14 over PNG, cold hard lock.

Yea, the offense also seems to have days where it's 4-5 yards a carry/catch nothing really gets behind the defense. But with how good that defense has been lately you can see them just giving the offense a ton of opportunities to score. If Crosby and PNG are both driving the ball and trading points that would favor PNG, I don't see that happening, I see many turnovers caused in the game. Winner gets a likely 1st round matchup with an HISD school. Also BH defense is worlds better than PNG's.

You play Willowridge in 1st round. The only other semi-competent team for the Marshall district.
