The 2-0 Tigers will travel over to Orangefield to take on the 1-1 Bobcats in a crucial 21-3A district battle. Silsbee looks to stay undefeated and could wrap up a playoff spot tonight with a win. A win by Orangefield would definitely help in their cause for a playoff spot and would put a bigger spin on the district playoffs for all contending teams. Broadcast time will be at 7:10 with kickoff to follow at 7:30. Just click on the link provided to listen in to another great game here at SETXsports.com!!

[quote name="baseball25" post="683762" timestamp="1256310051"] Silsbee didn't make the playoffs in 99-00 either thats when Lumberton beat them twice in district lol. [/quote] Very proud moment for Lumberton. Keep hanging your hat on that one season. Silsbee will just keep doing what they do, make the playoffs.

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="683753" timestamp="1256309433"] I agree with the exception of shooting guard..............Greyson is a better shooter than Prentice.  I based it on who I thought was the best 3 pt shooter in district!!! [/quote] and I based mine on scoring average. Prentice avg. more points a game than what Greyson did. I didn't want to just regulate that position to just 3 point shooting only.

Here are my preliminary picks, since someone needs them right away. ;) ;D My picks are based on last year, not what they will do this year. I see definite changes at the end of the year. Offensive MVP:  Pheal Hill, Silsbee Defensive MVP:  Jacoby Turner, HJ PG:  Garrett Gustafson, HJ SG:  Prentice Lane, Silsbee SF:  Zach Hayes, Orangefield PF:  DC Stallworth, Silsbee C:  Darius Davis, WOS

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="683711" timestamp="1256306356"] When you gonna chime in with your picks AAW??? [/quote] Still doing some research. Don't want to leave anyone out.

[quote name="no-look" post="683684" timestamp="1256304702"] When I was a freshman (back when the wheel was almost round...lol)I worked at the school during the summer. New Supt. told us to clean out underneath the bleachers in the gym and haul everything to the dump. There were several boxes of old trophies.....One I remember was 1927. A first place cup trophy about six inches high.......showed we had beat Silsbee for the championship game at a Sam Houston Tourney.....kept it for a while and later lost it. Wish I would have kept better care of those things.....just didn't seem important at the time..... [/quote] Who is "we"?

[quote name="no-look" post="683669" timestamp="1256303543"] [quote author=LAZEEK link=topic=61172.msg683573#msg683573 date=1256270387] Tigers are the team to beat this year for sure!!!! [/quote]Whats Silsbee enrollment and when is the last time they failed to make playoffs? [/quote] 843 is Silsbee's enrollment. The last time Silsbee missed the playoffs was '02, our next to last year in 4A.

That's because the owner deleted the posts where he was calling out staff members. That's a no-no. He knew how close he was to being banned, yet he still crossed the line. Trust me, it was warrented. That's all that will be said about this.

[quote name="indian15/16" post="683237" timestamp="1256241730"] The 3A #4 and #5 battle will be settled in the playoffs very soon. #5 will roll #4. ROLL...TRIBE...ROLL!! [/quote] Not if Huffman makes the playoffs. Then they would face Silsbee in the first round of the DI playoffs.

88, I believe he is speaking of starting out the season 1-4 with one of those losses an embarrassing one to Diboll, which I believe is their only win thus far.

The Orangefield/Silsbee JV game will be at Silsbee's old stadium, Kirby Memorial Stadium, at 5pm. There will be no freshman game.

[quote name="PVT Ryan" post="682443" timestamp="1256159794"] [quote author=Critter link=topic=60955.msg682208#msg682208 date=1256143142] Acutually if OF beats Silsbee they would still have to beat WOS and BC to get in.... Because BC has already beat HJ. [/quote] [b]Not true[/b].  In your incorrect scenario, then OF would have beaten Silsbee, WOS, BC, and HF and finish 4-1 (only loss to HJ).   The truth is if OF loses to Silsbee and WOS and then beats BC, they will finish 2-3.   HJ will beat HF and then lose to WOS and Silsbee and also finish 2-3.   BC will also be 2-3 after beating HJ and HF but losing to WOS, Silsbee, and OF (yes, OF [b]will[/b] beat BC).   Thus, the very probable three way tie for 3rd.  Then the question...how does the district figure out who gets the 3rd playoff spot? [/quote] In the case of a three way tie where each team defeated the other once, then it goes to a point system. The points stand as follows: BC +10 (1 game) HJ -3 (2 games, finished) OF -7 (1 game) If Silsbee and WOS win out, and HF does not win a game, then OF will need to defeat BC by 9 or more points in their district game to grab that 3rd spot. A BC win or loss by less than 9 points, and the Cards will get 3rd place. The only way HJ can get in is for them to defeat Silsbee or WOS or have HF upset BC. They will not finish ahead of BC or OF in the point tie breaker.

That list I made was in 2007. I would now have to replace Bubba McGallion with Jeremy Johnson at QB for Silsbee.

If these other schools drop, look for Wheatley to do the same. Also, all Dallas ISD schools who have 3A numbers will not opt up this realignment. They will drop down accordingly.

I would like to know what you said. PM me.

Orangefield's "field" has had two weeks to recover. It was not played on last week. It should be okay.

Weather conditions? The rain is Thursday night, not Friday night. The field shouldn't be in too bad of shape by game time Friday night.

Don't take this as smack talk, but I just don't see Orangefield winning this game by simply running the ball. The Bobcats will have to throw the ball and be very successful in it to defeat Silsbee. The Tiger defense will not allow Orangefield to just run the ball every play and be successful at it. The teams that have had success against Silsbee's defense has passed the ball. The mixture of run and pass has at times kept the Tigers on their heels. A strictly running team may have some success, but in order to defeat Silsbee, you will have to pass more than 10 times a game, and complete at least 6 of them for good yardage. With Orangefield showing hardly any kind of passing offense, I just don't see them winning this game. Also, with how the Bobcats have given up points on defense, I can see this game being at least a 2 touchdown win for Silsbee. The key for Orangefield will be if they can be successful at the passing game. The Orangefield rushing attack will have some success, but not enough solely to beat Silsbee.

"New practice method keys win for Mustangs over Bridge City ( pics of school board members were put on the Stang tackling dummies)" "Silsbee handles Bobcat offense, scores plenty on their own, wins 49-21"
