  1. Both first teams ended in a 13-13 tie, Silsbee missed an extra point on one of their tds, while Lumberton was held to two fg's and a td. Silsbee did get to the Raider 10 on another drive but then threw an interception. Lumberton never turned the ball over and never gave up a sack, I was impressed. Both teams second team played the most of the last quarter (3rd) with Lumberton scoring with just a few seconds left. Silsbee needs work on their pass rush and their pass defense, paticularly passes in the flat. Silsbee ran the ball very well against the Raiders, but that was no suprise. Lumberton showed alot of moxy, they are showing the right attitude on the field.

    As for the question about the numbers, I was a little suprised myself. I actually counted the number of players out there. Silsbee had 40 players suited up for varsity, Lumberton had 32.

  2. I realize that Central and Hebert have to play each other because they are in the same district, but the question is, if West Brook has a problem with having to play Hebert at their home stadium all the time, then why schedule them? I know, I know, it's the Beaumont bowl series, but are they being forced to play them, or can Coach Stump schedule someone else if he chose to?

    Actually, I can see the validity in West Brook-Hebert playing at Cardinal Stadium, just a non-district game. But making Central play at Hebert every year for a district game is not right. Central should be pissed.

  3. Yes it was the game that the Tigers won 48-44. The ironic thing about it is, Silsbee needed everything McGuire did just to get out of there with a win because we couldn't stop Nederland's passing attack. That qb shreaded Silsbee's defense that night. But, about the irony, Silsbee lost McGuire to a broken leg in the last game of the regular season and had to face Nederland in the 1st round of the playoffs, we're doomed, right? Not exactly. The Tiger coaches decided to change their defensive scheme against Nederland and instead of playing zone they went man to man and blitzed just about every down, sacking the qb 10 times that night. Silsbee rolled to a 34-7 playoff win. By the way, McGuire's backup rushed for 193 yards that night.
