I played at WOS...they do not put a lot of emphasis on it like schools are now. WOS has always been a defensive juggernaut. That's why they put the best athletes on defense. QB position at WOS has always been who can execute what we call and understand where everyone is supposed to be...that's it. Every now and then a "Jack Dallas" comes through and 4 in a row happens.
 

LCM has always had talent...no coaching and "Let my boy play" mentally has always held them back.

It'll be interesting over the next few years between these two.

ok that makes sense...that's all you had to say (pulp fiction voice) ha!

...and saying there's no point in playing a school bigger or smaller than you is crazy. So Carthage, WOS, Gilmer, Sweetwater, Argyle all need to play schools their size? In most years these schools would go 4 deep in the playoffs in 5A....especially Carthage. Getting your athletes hurt?? Deionte Thompson can play for Alabama but he might get hurt playing WB or PAM...get out of here with that. That is what WOS does and that is why that program is what it is...NO BACK DOWN!
Newton has 7 players going to major D1 shcools but they can't be on the field with Crosby or PAM
I'll tell you one thing...get your shots in on WOS this year because they are ponies, but next year they will be full grown Stangs!

You don't seem to get it. WOS this year, is probably the weakest most inexperienced team they have had in the past 5 years. Hanging with Crosby for 3 quarters was good! Now if you take the "past" 3 teams WOS has had and matched them with Crosby, PAM etc... this wouldn't even be a topic of discussion. The numbers didn't catch up to WOS...the inexperience did. The only team I think that would handle Newton is SETX this year...only this year is WB.
and on a side note...how old are you people? Does anyone on here remember WOS going toe to toe with WB over the years and winning their fair share? Or did everyone forget that? So if the numbers didn't matter then, why do they matter now? People get so caught up with how many jerseys are standing on the sideline. No coach goes three deep in a game at any one position...No coach! And in a tight game you may go 2 deep every now and then but very selectively. Just because you have 60 suited out doesn't mean all 60 play...geez.

I can't speak to that. I am just telling you what I and others experienced playing for WOS. Westbrook, Central, Aldine MacArthur (#2 in the nation at the time) have all had 30+ players more than us. What people don't understand, is that MOST good coaches aren't just throwing bodies out on the field unless you can play. Hardly ANYONE goes 2-3 deep at a position in a game especially a tight game...this is not LCM or Bridge City where everyone plays because they got a helmet LOL.

I'll take the computers on this... It has been pretty spot on for the most part
people forget WOS use to beat up on 5A schools back in the day with 30-35 varsity players (Westbrook, Central, Aldine MacArthur (ranked #2 in the NATION at the time). Don't put too much in school size. You can only put 11 on the field at a time.

People finally realizing what truth speakers have been saying...this is a young team still trying to grow. I know everyone was thumping their chest about taking out WOS but now we see they are taking down a team that is just inexperienced at this level. Shut out by BC the whole second half?? Are you kidding?  A bad BC team at that. They got throttled by Silsbee and Jasper. That Vidor scrimmage shows some truth now when you shed some light on it. And for the record, speaking truth does not mean you don't support the team.

It's funny when WOS is winning and everyone else says in years past "well if we would've made this play or that play we would've beat WOS"...and WOS fans say well you had your chances buddy move on, you didn't make the plays...you lost. NOW the tables are turned and it's WOS fans making that SAME tired excuse..."If we would've made that play or this play we would be GREAT!!! We would be 3-0! Funny when the shoe is on the other foot. Every team that comes out of WOS is not equal just because their helmets are silver and blue. If some of you can't admit that, then there's no need to argue the point.

never that!! crosby 38-21....i don't understand why WOS fans can't accept it might not be their  year!! it's okay to rebuild. i'm not saying to give up on your team, but wos can't be good every year. just stop.

Look man you were out of the state when Newton played WOS. Ive actually seen WOS more then I have seen LCM. How many WOS games have you made this year? I don't think you have watched the mustangs this year. Could WOS beat Crosby yes anything is possibly but not likely buddy. I understand you trying to be up beat and everything. I love HS football and I watch film on pretty much on every team that I go watch to see the best match up. You can ask one of my friends that is a WOS fan about my predictions so far and ive been right against NED and Newton. I was two points off of the LCM game. Just because I graduated from LCM doesn't mean I don't know football. Do you realize that WOS coaching staff has atleast 3 LCM Alum on it. Also im not worried about the mustangs because when playoffs come around that's when it counts. Be humble and hungry man. I think a lot of wos fans take for granted the talent yall had on those past teams.

Anyone that wants an unbiased prediction go to calpreps for Texas. It had Newton beating WOS 31 - 12 this year...obviously the conditions put a damper on that. It also had WOS losing to Nederland... get this...19-17 go figure.

WO-S fans should move on from this game. WO-S is going through growing pains. Newton will lose a  ton of people next year and will have to go through the same growing pains. WO-S will be all right as long as Cornell it there. Just in case WO-S want's to get rid of him, there is a long list of school that would love to have him, including Newton. WO-S will be all right. Regardless of what happens in pre district games, WO-S will walk through their district and you might just see them and Newton at AT&T stadium.

What does that have to do with anything
If you know anything about WOS they are barely a 4a and have never suited up more than 30 even back in the day...people get so stuck on divisions. And by lucky I mean that they ran into a very inexperienced WOS. It is 21-7 Newton against a bunch of sophmores with their 5 D1 players.

If it takes 5 D1 bound players and  WOS only completing 4 passes on the night to beat this very young team...WOS has a very bright future...FIND A QB!!!!
