As much as it would pain me to spend my hard earned money on anybody from Dayton for ANYTHING . . . If we lose to Dayton at home by 3 or more tds I'll buy you a steak and your guest can have mine. I would be shooting whiskey and chasing it with Coors Light at that point. So, deal!

Dayton is favored in this game. It wouldn't be an upset if they win. They score more points and give up less than we do against like opponents.

Because they're not playing Dayton's defense. They won't get 600 yards on Humble. New Caney and BH also held them under their season average.

Is that a vacuum pump I hear running or is it the sound of Vidor sucking again? I can't believe you ever let the words "scared to play Vidor" come out of your mouth, SMH. Well, look at it this way. While you're sitting at home in your usual spot when the playoffs start you'll at least be able to crack open a Natural Ice Lite and reflect over the time you beat Crosby in 2011. Your flotilla of pirate ships sunk before they even left the harbor this year . . . like they usually do.

Good win Ozen and good luck the rest of the way.

How stupid does this look now? LOL!!!!! Y'all are officially back to being a punchline. What's your excuse for sucking so bad this year? LOL. The Black Pearl is nothing but a lump of coal this year. Y'all suck man, take your 6th place finish and get ready for baseball season.

You'll be pleased to know they've pulled the stadium renovations forward so the home side will be the visitor side for the 2016 season. This should be the last time Dayton fans have to complain about the parking or mud, not that it should matter anyway with the long wheel base 4x4's that are so popular over there.

You're right. I have to stop being sucked in by Vidor fans and just ignore them, that game was three years ago. My fault for even responding to that garbage.

Once again King plays a decent defense and is held to under 400 total yards. King's running game was completely shut down but they couldn't defend the pass it looks like.

Nah, but I've watched most of their stuff on VYPE and on youtube recorded off that channel y'all have over there that's like our KUBE over here. What did PAM do the first two weeks of the season to make you think otherwise? Blank a team with half the enrollment that would finish in 8th place over here, a squad with a new coach in his first game? Hold a Central team to 14 points that had 7 on a sub-par SC defense with 6 mins to go in the 4th quarter? Just asking? PAM was suspect on defense last year against decent teams as you can see from the 47 ppg they gave up last year in their 4 losses. I don't need to attend games to see that. If I needed a homer's opinion I would ask my co-worker who attends every single PAM game when we're not on T/A.
 
You've been wrong on about 75% of what you've said so far this year while I'm batting over .900, I don't know why you would even question this knowledge I'm dropping on you?

With Seay I think Ned has a real shot at winning and maybe to the point of a pick 'em if there was a spread on the game. Without Seay Ned's offense is pretty pedestrian and will struggle to win individual matchups against Central. Much like our recent game with KP, Ned's backup QB made some hay against us because there was no game plan for him once the starter got hurt. That, along with the fact that Ned probably played their cleanest game of the year. Last year a guy like Kimler who had 5 catches for 135 could threaten Central on the outside, this year Ned doesn't have that type of edge personnel to keep Central honest.

Ned has to win this game with defense. Central being held to 14 points by a bad PAM defense and 21 points helped by 3 turnovers by an equally as bad SC defense at least gives Ned a good statistical chance. Like I said though, I'm not sure Ned has the personnel this year to exploit Central's weaknesses.

This is the correct poll. Elkins is the rightful #1, Foster, Ridge Point, and George Ranch are numbers 5, 6, and 7. Unreal. If Texas City beats Bush in district play it's likely that two of these teams are eliminated in the first round. One of the winners will get #3 Temple down the road.

I also found it interesting that district 25 has 4 of the top 16. That district could potentially produce both semifinal reps.

GR lost to 6A Friendswood already who in turn lost to Kingwood for their only win of the season. GR runs it at PAM can't stop it so it was a bad matchup from the start. Don't be surprised if GR loses to Foster in district, then Elkins or Ridge Point in the first round. The Houston metro is pretty solid this year as far as 5A squads go.

Stats never tell the whole story that's true, Score is all that matters thats true. But Score in some situations doesn't tell the whole story either, Late Td's, Td's versus second strign etc all are very important to factor in.
 
Simply Crosby this year on defense passes the stats test and against everyone they've played since the first half of the first game of the year the eye test. Crosby's defense turned a corner  about 2:00 left before the half versus Nederland, that defense hasn't looked back even without one of our best D-Linemen.
 
What can Stats say: They can tell you if a team is completely out matched versus a team that loses to someone similar to themsleves but made more mistakes.
 
For Instance in 2012 The cougars had quite a few turnovers in the redzone, makes a huge dfference, if you don't finish drives.
 
What the stats tell us this year is that Crosby has dominated everygame they've been in at the line of scrimmage, that's very impressive no matter who you are. We don't give up big plays often and we score on big plays and by running the football.
 
Nederland showed everyone the past couple years what a dominate line can do, and the Cougars have one this year if they maintain their dominance than the Cougars can be very successful versus dayton and in the Playoffs.
 
I haven't seen king play so for me i can only look at stats, I have no clue about the eye test. And honestly i've heard enough of people on this forum say "this team looked good this team looked bad" but honestly the vast majority of you have no idea what to look for, you look for flash and exciting players like Running backs and quarterbacks, but 75% of the time the thing that will stop those players the most is the 5 guys blocking for them, if they have a bad game it doesn't matter how much talent you have at the flash positions.

Tristen Cotton, Crosby (QB) is 64-105 for 945 yards and 9 tds

These stats don't mean anything. If you want an accurate depiction of how your team is playing you need to multiply your gut instinct x tradition divided by the prior decade's win/loss record. It doesn't make sense for you to base your opinion off the statistics that PAM is putting up this year, the equation I gave you above will get you a lot closer to the truth, just ask some of the people on here.

Lol. Like I said, you had no idea what you were talking about. Being "on a curve" and "in a quartile" are completely different places. If you have trouble punctuating and spelling sight words though that's to be expected.

Once again, my current stats and trends have become obsolete in favor of the more pertinent 2005 win/loss record you had with different coaching staffs in place. SETX logic at its finest right there.

8th grade A

Crosby - 33
Horace Mann: 0

8th grade B team

Crosby: 13
Horace Mann : 12How did Dayton look? Also, is the kid with the neck injury they took off the field ok? I never saw him move before the ambulance came and was just hoping he's ok. I think he was #22?

The only two teams that should give us trouble are PNG and Central but I think Central would have all sorts of issues with Humble's athleticism. I think Crosby, Dayton and King all win their first round matchups. I think Ned dropping 50 on another potential playoff team over there says a lot about the strength of that district after they were held in the 20's by the worst defense in our district. I know teams improve, but so do the ones over here.

I'll bump the 21-5a stat thread, but there's nothing that compares to King's offense or Crosby's defense. Humble's defensive numbers are pretty crazy too.

He still won't win it, but Tray Williams actually had 294 yards on 24 carries, not 194. He already has 1041 yards on just 100 carries.

Are the last two shows going to be archived? I can't listen anymore due to Tuesday night lights.
