Everyone drive safe, things can change fast like last weekend. Good luck to both teams. Take it to em' Eagles!!

[Hidden Content] Good article!! Go Eagles!!

I agree too...Newton has the speed on defense to contain Floyd and definitely the offense to score!! Go Eagles ;D

[quote name="Razor" post="1349495" timestamp="1354678795"] I would love to see the following: 4A State Champs - Nederland 3A State Champs - WOS 2A State Champs - Newton Best of luck to all of our local teams still competing and making SE Texas proud! [/quote] Amen to that! I'm a Newton alumni, my dad is a Nederland alumni and I've always enjoyed the WOS vs Newton games. Nothing but respect for all three programs. Good luck to all!

[quote name="BMTSoulja1" post="1349276" timestamp="1354663920"] What day do you predict that the 'housecleaning' will begin for that football team from old town Beaumont? The new dirty dozen polls...  Thoughts? Katy cleaning LaPorte's clock.  Are you suprised? Thoughts on Nederland beating the #1 team in state while also beating the zebras. [/quote] I thought Newton beat the Zebras!

Kevin Shorter voted Marine Corps elite warrior of the year!!! Congrats Shorter!!! [Hidden Content]

Way to go Eagles!!!! Keep doing what you do. Congrats to Grandview on a great season!

Play better defense? How would you go about that? Score more points? Don't play the JV players? I can think of one, hold on to the ball a little better. I'll give you that one.  8) [/quote] I agree ChampionEagles, they just need to keep playing with the same drive they have been all year. Keep rolling Eagles!!

Congrats on a great season Bucs! We will see y'all next year at y'alls house! ;D

Great Job Eagles, y'all played lights out. Next up Grandview. Congrats on a great season Teague, good things are in the future.

That's funny ECBucFan, he keeps throwing his # out there like he is calling you out then you tell him you will be there and he all of a sudden he won't be there. ;D What does Anthony Byerly have to do with anything? He went to school at Newton anyways not EC. I wouldn't brag about strength of schedule if I was a BH fan. Playing a team from Mexico that gets drove every time they play a Texas team and Lumberton before y'all finished 4th in district. I wouldn't pay him any attention ECBucFan.

Take it to em' Jasper! Newton is pulling for y'all. Good luck!

[quote name="homegrownheard" post="1334929" timestamp="1353179364"] yall talking about how easy this game is gonna be for newton well thats why we play the game.. I know anything can happen on any given day and it wont be long till its game day.. good luck to both teams and my lions will win in a hard fought close game.. [/quote] Maybe so......

Looking at Teague's schedule, I can't get past the 38-30 win over Crockett who finished 1-9. Teague QB is good, accurate passer with good foot work, but the constant pressure that he will be facing will not allow him much time to do anything. I think Shorter, Dean and Elam will have a field day in the secondary. Newton 55 Teague 14

Win one for Artis!

[/quote] Well considering they have two D1 defensive backs starting for them, I wouldn't worry about that too much. But Teague can score. Ill give them that. The order quarter should be good. Then Newton should overwhelm them with speed. Newton 48 Teague 21 [/quote] Has Newton played any teams that are as fast or faster than them? [/quote] Well they did scrimmage Silsbee, if that means anything. [/quote] It doesn't but thanks. [/quote]...........This guy lol ::) [/quote] Don't mind him, he is just bitter that dist. 9 was exposed last night.

I think I would have to lean towards Newton if this matchup were to happen. Great job so far this season Pirates! All of Newton county is behind y'all!

Great win Bucs! Glad we made the drive to Lufkin, really enjoyed the game. Good luck next week with Franklin

[quote name="BigEagle" post="1329466" timestamp="1352840721"] Many of you must not know Dennis Alexander.  The only thing he chews on more and spits out than his cigars are officials.  For some reason he will always get the calls and will always be on the numbers coaching the game.  [i][b]Best way I see to get him to back off, is to run a sweep with a pulling guard and take him out.[/b][/i]  Troup has been very lucky this year.  Even though they beat Tatum, I believe that they were 4th or 5th best team in the district. I am actually picking EC in this game in a close one.  But better hope that it does not come down to a call going your way. [/quote] ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Go Bucs!!! The NewtonNation is supporting y'all!

This game will tell a lot about how tough dist. 9 is!

[quote name="KingJames123" post="1328818" timestamp="1352776731"] [quote author=Eagleborn link=topic=106079.msg1328812#msg1328812 date=1352776356] [quote author=NewtonNation link=topic=106079.msg1328624#msg1328624 date=1352763243] It will be that much sweeter when EC wins, one could make an argument that nobody from dist. 9 would have made the playoffs in dist.10. Take it to em' Bucs! [/quote] Yea, good luck with that argument. [/quote] Yea saying that might be stretching the truth a little bit:-) [/quote] The only reason I say that is because a Tatum poster said East Chambers would come in 5th or 6th in their dist.

[quote name="colliecw" post="1328309" timestamp="1352745317"] Sounds like a Tatum supporter posted this.  Just thought I'd pass it along... Posted on www.smoaky.com (an East Texas sports forum): "Posted 10 November 2012 - 03:33 PM Yep.....Roberts is their everything. Send 8 guys his way and the other 3 defenders for the rest of them. We took him out of the game last year and ended up beating them 45-7 in the 3rd round last year. Make no mistake....the kid can play, hes a great talent. He is small but fast and shifty. [b]I personally think Alexander will get his guys to maul a one star(player) team like this[/b]. Alexander will know to devote his attention to Roberts on defense. [b]And offensively, what Troup does(which is mix it up well) should walk down the field fairly easily on a not so athletic team[/b]. Our district is very athletic...Tatum, Jefferson, and White Oak prepared Troup very well for the playoffs. Even Harmony showed you the ball control side of things......you guys have seen some tough football teams. [b]East Chambers would have finished 5th maybe 6th in our district[/b]..... Go get 'em Tigers. Make 9AA DI proud. " [/quote] It will be that much sweeter when EC wins, one could make an argument that nobody from dist. 9 would have made the playoffs in dist.10. Take it to em' Bucs!

I'll be at this game. Go Bucs!

Another stat is defense! Teague allows 31 points per game. Palmer allows 19.
