[/quote] Well, considering that Humble swept Summer Creek in district by the scores of 62-52 and then 75-47, I would make Humble the favorite. [/quote] Ok, fair. Who would have been the favorite between Humble and KW Park (had they met again in the playoffs)? They split their head to heads in district play, yet Humble finished #1 and KW Park #2. [b]I know for a fact [/b]that Humble would have been the favorite. [/quote] I would not know for a fact. I would have to look at how the two finished the season and how they performed in the playoffs up to that point.

I put Ozen the favorite based on the fact that the last time these two played, Ozen won by double digits. Also, IMO, I believe Ozen is playing the better basketball of late based on their two playoff victories over what I consider better opponents than what Nederland faced. I believe that Humble and North Forest are better teams than Dayton and Magnolia. Humble was district champion and state ranked and North Forest was runner up in their district, sweeping Dayton in district, a team that Nederland struggled with in the first round. I admit that I was wrong with making Magnolia a favorite over Nederland but I see nothing wrong with making Ozen a favorite over Nederland based on what I just stated. IMO, Ozen is playing a little better basketball of late than Nederland therefore why I have them as 4 point favorites. I do not see where that is so hard to understand.

[/quote] Seriously? [/quote] Yes, seriously. [/quote] If Iowa State or Baylor meet Kansas in the NCAA tournament, who is the favorite? Or if Florida State plays North Carolina or Duke in the tourney, who's the favorite? [/quote] I would personally make Kansas, NC and Duke the favorites. But, I don't consider those to be the same as this game with Nederland and Ozen. Instead of posing questions to me, tell me why you do not agree with Ozen being the favorite and why Nederland should be the favorite.

[quote name="NB-Dawg" post="1186459" timestamp="1330314350"] I wonder if HF had beaten Navasota Friday night if they would be the favorite against HJ this Tuesday??  ??? [/quote] No they would not have.

[quote name="captredass" post="1186417" timestamp="1330310741"] How do you give up 18 rebounds and 6 blocks to one person, let along under 6' and say you didn't underestimate the kids from Splendora. Can anyone answer that one? The nervousness from this site's Broadcaster's during the game showed everyone underestimated Splendora. Coldspring knew Splendora was scrappy. I'm just pointing out the obvious. This is not about what you've done at the beginning of the season but are you ready now and can your team produce when a team is as fast as you. I remember a WOS Football team that suppose to of had 9 kids run under 4.5/40 yards, so speed does not matter to use. I realize our team had their problems but I believe the hype will create focus and determination for our kids. We'll see Tuesday. [/quote] Again with the Splendora comparisons. ::) But I'll bite. You are claiming that Silsbee "underestimated" Splendora. So if that's true, are you not selling Splendora short? I mean you stating Silsbee "underestimated" Splendora yet Silsbee still beat them by 15 (led by as much as 21). ::) Also, I agree it's not so much what a team did early in the season but how they are playing now. Well, Silsbee has defeated two state ranked teams in their last 3 games (Pleasant Grove by 25, Brookshire-Royal by 12). So the Tigers are playing quite well of late. ;) Like I mentioned before, I have seen Coldspring play this season. As far as speed is concerned, the Trojans are no faster than the Royal team that Silsbee just defeated. So, Silsbee will produce against the speed of Coldspring, trust me. BTW, the player you mentioned that "supposedly" had 18 rebounds and 6 block shots is McAnally and he is listed at '6"2, not under '6. Silsbee's tallest player is '6"2. It's not the first time a post player has produced those kind of numbers against Silsbee. BTW, he only had 5 points for the game. ;) It is so funny how you want to "key" on the Splendora game but have no comments on the latest game which was a 12 point win over a very good Brookshire-Royal team that is somewhat similar to your Coldspring team. ;) ::)

[quote name="captredass" post="1186323" timestamp="1330303114"] Silsbee was holding their breath a few times against Splendora through-out the game and if a few three's fell early in the game, then it would of ended different. Coldspring never gave up that many rebounds to a person under 6' like they did to Splendora. I think they under estimated Splendora just like they are doing to Coldspring. Number 5 in state is going to their head, Coldspring is not intimidated. They are not HJ, by far. Silsbee's luck will be running out Tuesday. [/quote] I find this post hysterically funny. First of all, Silsbee (the team) is not underestimating Coldspring. Second, it would have taken more than a few three's for Splendora to beat Silsbee the other night. Also, Silsbee has not been running on "luck" this season like you are suggesting. That is about as asinine a statement as I have heard all year.  ::) As far as the ranking goes, they have been in the top 10 all year long, so the ranking has no bearing on their confidence or in your words, over confidence. Silsbee is battle tested, regardless of ranking. I have seen Coldspring play a few times this season. They are no better a team than the Brookshire-Royal team that Silsbee just defeated by 12 points.  You want to continue to make comparisons with the Splendora game, go right ahead. It will only give you a false sense of security. ;)

[quote name="stevenash" post="1186192" timestamp="1330280781"] I dont believe you can count scrimmages in pre season [/quote] Particularly where you only play about a quarter and a half and in Ozen's case they were a shell of what their team really is, zero football players playing at that time. (4 starters)

[/quote]Even better, on Wednesday morning Hj will have played and beat two 4a teams that will be playing in the 4a Regional Tournament next week... Ozen vs Nederland - Central vs Kingwood Park [/quote] So you are picking Nederland over Ozen. ;)

[quote name="kristinadams0423" post="1186147" timestamp="1330275438"] Silsbees path is much easier now.  HJ had the easier area round game and Silsbee had the tougher one. [/quote] I agree.

Silsbee has played a total of 15 teams that made the playoffs which 7 still remain. (Dallas Kimball, Dallas SOC, Ozen, Navasota, HJ, Pleasant Grove and Kountze)

I have yet to see any post from a Ned fan suggesting they are "world beaters". They are quite proud of their team and it's accomplishments but I think they are smart enough to know there are better teams out there that have accomplished more. I think they have a full understanding but you seem to be bent on proving they don't. My point is, what other teams have accomplished is totally irrelevant to what Nederland has accomplished.

I don't understand why there has to be comparisons of Yates to Nederland. Yates is better than many, many, many teams, not just Nederland. This does not mean that Nederland is not a good team. I don't see the point in comparing Nederland or any other team in SETX to Yates. Yates is better than 90-95% of all the teams in the state of Texas. It's pointless to make those comparisons and it doesn't take away from what Nederland has and still may accomplish.
