i've seen SLC twice now in person and this one via the stream..this is the first time I didnt see them run the ball up the gut over and over again.  Good gameplan by SLC.  Their QB is big for a soph..son of a former rangers player (Ken Hill).

ouch...we can't have turnovers..esp for a pick 6

Let's hope we continue with the O like we just did this drive!  Wow, we struck fast.  Looks like Coach Faircloth is mixing things up showing some formations we haven't done all year long :)  What a great coach!

How many fans do we have there?

Is this game streaming live anywhere?  I'm watching the SLC vs Abilene game right now, so there apparently is not any different rules in the playoffs vs teh regular season when it comes to live streaming.  That said, I know you can watch it tomorrow @noon, but that's not good enough lol.

I know Trinity seemed to be human in round 1, but I honestly don't see them losing until the finals and even then, I'm not sure Katy can take them down if they execute like they are capable of.  I honestly don't want them to get beat until then so the haters can shut up about Katy not facing legit talent.  If I'm not working on my car, then I might head out and to the deathstar and watch the middle to games.

Some of those teams  you mentioned like Montgomery are not in the same div as Dayton so that point is moot

Why post crap like that TC35?  That is jsut plain stupid.

Central did not rest any players vs PNG

Way to go D! Big interception there at the PNG 1yd line returned for 77 yds.

Another scramble by a QB on 3rd down for big yards :(  But now a nice sack back to 31

Dang..another short field after the kickoff.

Let's hope we keep this up the whole game..we always seem to start well and then cool off in the 2nd half.

TD PNG ..bertrand

OK---I'll try it this way. BH defense is spectacular--lights out and the best I have ever seen---Crosby still puts up 2 TDs on them

The Hill has a good Defense but thets not go to far.

Don't forget that the Hill is for Real!  That has to count for something!

Thanks  :)  I figured that yall might have had some callups.....and definately great coaching ...they obviously were able to learn from the film what the team needed to work on and turned that aspect around.  Good Luck this week and beyond in the playoffs.

Rankings are something to make you feel good about yourself and that's about it imo....they don't always tell the whole story.  That being said, I do have a question for people who are close to Central..what has changed since the 1st 2 games of the year?  Did some people move around or yall have just stepped up your game and made the necessary adjustments?  This isn't a derogatory post...just curious.  I realize that WB is a good team and PAM was playing well (I actually thought they might beat NS, but it's just spiralled out of control since that loss unfortunately).

This statement does sound like you are taking a shot at the school and the kids.  Nobody said anything when PN-G was 10-0 and ranked last year.  Because you are not having the best of years, don't down play the rankings now.  I think personally that when whoever lines up across from Brenham in 2 weeks and sees that #2 along with their name, they will have already lost the game cause it will be in their heads that this team is better than them. 

Just a little FYI, I would put my money on it that if PN-G or any other school in this area played PA Memorial or WB in the first 2 weeks, they would suffer a loss.  I am glad we schedule and play the big boys, it gets us ready for a tough district.  Those 2 losses mean absolutely nothing now, what matters is that we are 6-0 and district champs going into our last game of the regular season.  And yes we started a 15 year old as QB so he had some growing pains.  The coaching staff made the proper adjustments and here we are.

Personally I would love to see that #10 before our name.

Like I said, I wasn't taking a shot at them at all.  I never said a word when we were ranked last year.  I'm happy that Central is getting some well due praise by the voters etc.  My question was what changed since those defeats...this wasn't taking a shot at Central.  I've never been a fan of polls whether it's HS or College...it's all about how hot the team is at the time your playing them.  I never said that other teams would not lhave lost to them playing them early on..heck, even though it was a scrimmage, PAM beat us and many were giving PNG fans a hard time about it because we lost to a team that had a good playoff run the previous year.  That said, I try to call it like I see it....when a PNG kid is up for player of the week, I vote for who had the best game and put up the best #'s, not whomever may have been nominated that plays for PNG...so don't assume you know anything about me.  I'm not on this forum to talk trash about the team PNG plays in whatever particular week.  Yes, we had a good year last year and we have had our troubles this year on defense..that's no secret...but what is important for PNG is how they are playing now...moving #31 (cant spell his name) to defense has had a major impact on the defense.  I would like to think that PNG wins vs Central, but I can't honestly say as I haven't seen any of Centrals games and only a few of PNG's via the internet replay since I don't live in the area anymore.  If PNG loses, they lost to the better team plain and simple.

So basically the answer is that the Central qb was young and had some growing up to do (which he has obviously done) and then the obvious adjustments here and there that the coaches saw on film.  That's all I was asking for.
Thanks,

How about we all vote for our teams QB.  This thread is going nowhere imo.  All of the qb's mentioned are good and there respective teams would be in a world of trouble without them.

Vidor could have won this!
[/quote]

I'm not sure what game you watched, but I would say that we pretty much dominated the game ...we didn't really open up our offense for quick scores in the 2nd half..giving way to the ground game to control the clock with a big lead.  Yes, Vidor had some key fumbles, but someone had to force those fumbles.  Our D is making progress each game it seems.

Good game Indians!  Classy move by Faircloth to have Doty take a knee at the end.  As anyone who went to the game saw, Pirates definitely had their chances, but turnovers still plague this team.  The strip fumble inside the PNG 20 and the gift fumble inside the Vidor 5 come to mind.  
No excuses though, turnovers, (and penalties) are part of the game.
Good luck against Central next week.

Definately classy move..I'm pretty sure we could have scored there at the end if not for taking the knee.  I think most of the 2nd half was just working the clock with the ground game.

Why is this game not on Cool92.5 tonight :(

If Crosby hasn't improved offensively since they played PNG ...and everyone know's the difficulties PNG has had on defense this year...then Dayton should blow them out.  Just sayin.

i didnt think this in the beginning but maybe its time for him to come home
[/quote]

I thought you said for him to stay away?  Or is this because of the teams effort vs WB?  I'm not trying to stir anything up...how long have yall had the current coach?

I honestly think he went for the kill there because our defense did not seem to be able to stop LCM in the 2nd half...and there was no reason to think we couldn't get 1 yard there.  Saying he is a bust is harsh.  We won the game and that's all that matters at this point.  We obviously still have issues on defense.  That said, I probably would have went for the FG there as well.
