[quote name="whsalum" post="1101119" timestamp="1320105971"] 43-0 would have been a close game for some our opponents this year  ::) I know that's not alot of fun for the players on the short end but you don't quit once the game starts.If you can't compete , don't start.[b]If you start don't quit[/b]. [/quote] I couldn't agree more.

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1102192" timestamp="1320239181"] Look, all this talk about qb's is really not the major issue. You need to be more concerned about your opponent this Friday night. ;) [/quote] They are going to beat their opponent by choosing the correct QB to do so.  It is a very pertinent issue.  Choosing the correct QB makes a big difference (someone should forward this post to Jerry Jones).  WHEN they beat HF (and they will), it will be nice going into the playoffs already knowing who's leading your offense onto the field.  They could beat HF with either QB though.

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1101814" timestamp="1320176445"] IMO Silsbee should run more wildcat plays using Turk, Gaines, and Spearman. Those are your top playmakes. If you can't get the ball in their hands behind some decent blocking, then your season will end earlier than you want. There have been very few games this year (stats dont lie) that I think Silsbee has been able to get the ball in their playmakers hands consistantly. Haven't heard Turks name called in a while on a huge run or pass catch. Spearman's production has slowed down and Gaines hasn't had  as many oppritunities as he did earlier in the year. Get the ball in the hands of the players who can move the chains. If Drake can do that, let him have the keys.  :D [/quote] I agree.  I see Coach McGallion starting Drake...It's the most logical move.

[quote name="queenb77630" post="1101010" timestamp="1320095180"] Division 1 had some great teams also.  Just because they didn't make it past round 1 doesn't mean they were less then good. [/quote] I don't think anyone said DIV 1 wasn't good...I think the poster was just pointing out (and rightly so) that EVERY team in the 2nd round is from DIV 2.  The implication is that DIV 2 was better/tougher than DIV 1...Can't argue with the logic...

[/quote] My point is a Reed is a better fit for SIlsbee's offense. Not to take anything away from Drake. He is one heck of a player, but he threw 5 TD's in a game vs HJ not WOS or BC. Reed did get Silsbee to 6-0 if I recall. I guess he was good enough for those games and earned the right to start. Drake is better at wideout and saftey. Him playing QB, Saftey, Punter, Kicker, etc wears him down to much. Reed is young and has alot of growing and maturing to do. If Silsbee wants to have success outside of thier next game, they are better off leting Garret play his normal position at WR and Saftey. [/quote] Good well thought out argument, but I gotta go with Drake on this one.  Let's win THIS year and next year. Start Drake.  If he can't keep up due to going 3 ways, then put Reed in. 

Lumberton starting QB/DB out as well as another 2 way key starter @ WR/DB makes for a tough ball game for LHS to win this one.

Looking at other start-up programs, like South Alabama, and Lamar is not keeping pace. There are more and more empty seats at LU games. Interest is waning. Winning solves these problems. Embarrasing showings like this week cant help recruting or ticket sales, so how does it get better? [/quote] People need to go to the games win or lose.  I would imagine that at least 1/2 of the people on this board have been to 2 or fewer home games.  Success takes support.  Support means $$.  Fans (and rich donors) = money. [/quote] BINGO!

I am not saying Woodard is the answer.  I am only saying that this is an infant program.  Give it a chance to crawl then walk then run. 

[quote name="tvc184" post="1100404" timestamp="1320051271"] I am wondering how many people are putting the horse before the cart and assuming that the game will be over by the half. [/quote] Yup.

[quote name="dogfather" post="1100418" timestamp="1320058811"] Who knows - play offs are crazy - I think the right 4  teams are there for sure. Lumberton W  18  WOS 6 Png G            28  BMT 21 [/quote] Man...as close as these teams are to each other, I can see it going either way.  I like your picks/spreads though.  Hope Lum W brings it home.

[quote name="Ochocinco" post="1099657" timestamp="1319948843"] Who wins, Wos or LUM W?      Bmt G or Png G? [/quote] When it's down to the last 4, I think anything could happen.  My picks would be: LUM W PNG G I think that would be the Super Bowl at this point.

[quote name="pngfan97" post="1098766" timestamp="1319895353"] Wow, Bmt G & LUM R only 8 points...I assume either u think the youngsters from Bmt are gonna feel the playoff pressure or those Big Hiiters from Lumberton learned some things from the first meeting. [/quote] The second part.

It can always be taken back...Jesus said so.

I think everyone has had a pretty good stab at ndndad's problem...let's let up on the poor b??tard.  He was pretty forthcoming, and we have all had our swing at the kid and the Dad...probably time to let it go.  Just my opinion.

North- (Lumb. white and blue, Kountze, Bmt, LC, Vidor, & Orangefield) 7 teams 3 playoff teams. South- (Ned. white and black, PNG white and purple, PA, WOS, BC) 7 teams 5 playoff teams. Playoff teams only listed because if the team is in the supperbowl the player will not be in the probowl. So a team might be able to bring a few more kids to make up the difference. [/quote] You have omitted a BMT team and PNG G...is this because you think BMT G and PNG G will be in the Superbowl??? [/quote] That can't happen.  They will play each other if they both win this weekend. [/quote] That is correct...should've noticed that.  I guess they were just mistakenly omitted from Gusher's synopsis.
