I predicted that Newton wouldn’t survive this 3 game stretch undefeated.  I stand by my prediction.
I wouldn’t bet MY money on it, though. 

Gilmer is gonna come into this game breathin' 🔥. They have a loss from last year to avenge, and a win streak to shatter. That gives them all the motivation they need. I sure hope the Newton boys are ready for that. 

I'm definitely not betting against them. I'm a big fan. If  Newton wins this game, no ther 3A D2 team will even stay close.

1930's??? Cmon man!

At one point in the late 80's early 90's there were 4 guys from Daingerfield simultaneously playing in the NFL. Thomas Everett, Eric Everett, Dave Whitmore, and David Mims. Think about that; 4 guys from a town of 2,000 playing in the NFL at once. 

When I say switch to the power I I don't mean completely avoid the pass, I just think they could move the ball on the ground and pick up first downs and I think teams would bite on play action and leave wr open more, but you gotta play it smart don't pass on ovious passing downs when the defence is expecting the pass, pass when there expecting the run. With as good as wos defense is every year they don't need to try and air it out and score fast all the time, or throw 3 incomplete passes go 3 and out and get your defence back on the field with little rest
 

My thoughts on wos offence, if the strength of your team is your offensive line and you got a damn good running back why not put a tight end and FB in and line up in the power I and get physical and play some power football control the game clock and give your defence more rest, and it would set up the play action pass down field, don't get me wrong in a fan of the spread offense but when you don't have the qb or wr to run it, it's kinda pointless, the only time they will look good running the spread is against cupcake teams.. But if they don't change anything it's just gonna be another one of them years where your in the playoffs counting on your defence to win the game for you but you lose cause your offence can only put up 10 points.
 

Silsbee has and excellent football team. They have great athletes and will go deep in the playoffs,  imo. 
Everyone needs to support these kids and they will rebound. Coming from and Eagle fan. I'm 100% a Newton fan but I know a good team when I see one. This game really doesn't matter. It should be used as a teaching tool. Disrict play is the only thing that matters.

We don't want, are need any bad bllood between theses two teams. No more than there may be already. These are two great programs and I hope both of these teams represent East Texas in December. Injury free

WOS is a Great team.  Every year. I give them the respect they deserve. Newton is a great team as well. I can't confidently say who I think is going to win this game. But I'm a Newton fan and am pulling for them. 
But the scoreboard is really all that matters 

I have absolutely nothing to say negatively about WOS. They are one of the best programs in Texas as is Newton. I look for a great hard fought game and I expect it. Not likely a blowout in either way. But anything can happen with a momentum shift and a few mistakes. Both of these teams k8nda mirror each other with great athletes,  great coaching and great fan base. Looking forward to a great game.  Go Eagles!!!!

No need to get any hurt feelings. Everybody passionate about their team. I can make you a 100% guarantee about one thing, there isn't anything that is said in this forum that is going to change the outcome of this game and the scoreboard has the final say. Let's not get mad at each other because we both believe in our teams. May we have a great game that provides us some entertainment and everybody stays healthy. This game is not going to determine who goes onto AT&T win or lose, that is up to our teams by winning the games necessary to accomplish this goal. May god bless all.
PT, hopefully we can stand side by side at AT&T again at the end of this season.

U are absolutely correct. I have nothing but respect for every team. In setx. It's great that they play each other.the only point that I was making is w.o is the only team that has something different that makes it hard for newton on defense and offense. If our kids just hold on to the ball and continue to slow down with the drops .this will be a 4th qtr game.

I really enjoyed the game and not just because Newton won. The game showed good sportsmanship by both teams ( both teams helped each other and were respectful for one another ) . The officials were professional and called a good clean game and sometimes the  official don't get credit when credit is due ( if they would have messed-up,several of us would have let you know ). The fans were  polite and courteous. I enjoyed the game . Silsbee  kids and adults are good people. Silsbee football team will get them deep into the play-offs. JMO
