Actually, there was and quite a lot of whining and excuses in Twitter and Facebook. It even escalated to really bad comments about the City of Port Arthur in general, Port Arthur kid's home training, 'if Faircloth coaches that team, they'd be state champions every year', ect.
Then when many got on their case, some pulled the chicken 'you know what' move and deleted their comment...
..because that's all BC does is run. Silsbee does pass more. But I'll take the Running efficiency... Silsbee's yards per touch and TD's per touch is higher than BC's, coming out the backfield.
Actually, you're pretty accurate... They run hard and are a load to bring down. I've heard many PAM fans say it after seeing Vidor. I've seen it when they Olay central. A Vidor RB was able to break free of a tackle and proceed 30 yards to paydirt... you have to wrap up and drive them back. And you MUST have the angle on them because they are slippery...
In the head to head matchup, There was a silsbee RB that ran for 255 yards and averaged 11 yards per carry and 3 TD's and his counterpart finished with over 100 yards and also had 11 yards per carry vs Bridge City. so yea, we'd say 'Smoke Town' has a better backfield than BC...
Ok. Understandable. I think they are over achieving right now. This team is young. they were supposed to be a couple of years away....but these young guns are balling, big time. And I know they got blown out by The Woodlands, but every team suffered the same fate as West Brook, including Katy. Maybe they'll play over their heads in the Longview game. I hope they do.
I was watching a little video on Carthage vs. Gilmer and when they played Henderson...
I haven't finished watching yet, by so far, it's not anything that Silsbee have not seen...
Never been to this newer Panther stadium. Before this new one was built, there was an older one. it was back when Central used to play Lufkin every year...
Beating Nederland isn't even on the people's minds that actually beat them. Memorial is worried about Porter, Vidor is focused on Dayton, and PN-G is focused on The Ant Mound...
That's the farthest from the truth. the two teams I support wears maroon, and they're BOTH in the playoffs. Our Beaumont Counterparts, West Brook just finished 9-1 and hosts a playoff game. no reason to be butt hurt at all.
But whatever you've lead yourself to believe... go right ahead and believe it...
