Obviously you are not too astute to understand the post. Kirbyville was actually praised for being a perceived "weak or watered down" 3rd place team only to run over some champions from other districts. They actually deserved to make the playoffs therefore the 3 playoff spots was beneficial to them. I do not understand how that is a critique of the k'ville fb program. All that does is show how a 3 team playoff picture can be a good thing. At any rate losing to a powerhouse Palestine over the past 2 season is hardly anything to hang our head in shame about. It was a very good game last year. I see no need to bash Lumberton or bring their playoff record into the light because obviously you already have. :wink:

Guys.....do we really need to be questioning any coach's position especially on a message board? Some years are high but you have to expect some bad as well. It is ridiculous to be questioning some of these coaches with the resumes that they have.

So the 3A district is watering down the playoffs by having 3 teams go? Look at the teams in that district. In other areas of the state several of these teams would be district champs. I would think you need 3 teams to go in most lower classification districts especially with the wide gaps in enrollment. You can't expect a small 3A school,say 420 kids, to be as competetive with a 3A school that is at the 900 mark on a consistent basis. By eliminating the 3rd playoff spot what are we actually accomplishing? If those 3rd place teams are "weak" then obviously after round 1 they are eliminated right? Ask Kirbyville how they felt getting eliminated early the past 2 seasons how it felt.....oh wait they made 3 rounds. That throws the "weak" argument out the window. Playoffs add excitement to the schools and helps the program plus the community is involved.

:roll: I definitely feel WOS has the advantage, but this statement was ridiculous. A controlled 3 quarter scrimmage in August means nothing in mid October.

Let's be real here.....we're dealing with kids. Kids make mistakes on occassion. Here we are going into week 7 with 2 teams battling for the district lead. Whether they have mistakes in past games or not they have a grand total of 1 loss between the 2 teams. That says a lot about the talent of the kids and coaching abilities on both sides. There is one Beaumont school with probably more talent than both of these squads whose season is now a wash. We can argue schemes or whatever else but no one can deny the fact that both of these schools have had success. There have been numerous play calls over the years...not just this one... where I have scratched my head, but I am not the coach nor have I ever been to school to learn coaching. I personally would have loved to see more I-back packages this season, but I can not argue the fact that Silsbee is winning. I would bet there has been at least one play call from the coaches at WOS that has left a few fans raising their eyebrows as well. It is the natural of the beast for being a fan.

I would think after this week that would be an acceptable prediction. I just want a good game.

McCarter is definitely a speed guy but Elam is the straight up style runner. He has a style similar to Dickerson. How was the passing tonight?

I have them every week as the #1 team in the area. Once again WOS will be my #1 when I submit this week.

Not to cut down LCM, but Ozen should have scored. It is ridiculous to have that much talent and not be able to at least score. That is pathetic.

To be honest I'd prefer WOS be predicted by a large margin. If Silsbee loses they were predicted to do so, but if WOS comes in too confident then it could be close.

Did they give McCarter the ball much? The past couple games after he fumbles it seems they do not call his number anymore. That Elam kid has looked good in the backfield.

Knowing that I hope you guys have some compassion.

:oops: A fan who mistakenly assumed a blow out was on the horizon as well as according to our own weather man a week of rain. Hey man I got to get my fill of carnie food as well. By the way I want to meet someone who tries the fried coke. I'm adventurous but not that adventurous.

That has been the only consistent for the team this year......turnover after turnover. I will confess I did not go tonight (fair), but the option handoff has been a severe problem all season. It is pulled out too late. You have to be committed one way or the other. If Silsbee was running a basic I formation behind that line it could be deadly, but hey, I'm not paid to be the coach and make those decisions. When the veer is executed well it is an effective offense, but the by product is fumbles. I just hope we do not have WOS having to have a running clock in the second half next week to keep the score down.

updates?

Week 6 (October 13) 21-5A West Brook at Baytown Lee Port Arthur Memorial at Kingwood (Sat.) Baytown Sterling at Channelview 21-4A New Caney at Barbers Hill Huffman at Houston Smiley 22-4A Nederland at PN-G **Game of the Week** Lumberton at Central Dayton at Vidor LC-M at Ozen 21-3A Jasper at Bridge City Kirbyville at Orangefield Silsbee at Hamshire-Fannett Hardin-Jefferson at West Orange-Stark 22-3A Coldspring at Liberty 23-2A Corrigan-Camden at Newton Woodville at Shelbyville 24-2A East Chambers at Warren Hardin at Anahuac Kountze at Buna 24-1A Evadale at West Hardin High Island at Hull-Daisetta Non-District Kelly at St. Pius Sabine Pass at Deweyville JV

I hope we do not get a few Tiger fans who become too outspoken like a few to the south and up hwy 96.

At this point if Ozen was to win it would be the upset.

I know we are talking high school , but here is a little FYI about the future here in Silsbee. We have an 8th grader nailing 35+ yarders with ease. :shock:

What's sadder than that is a Lumberton guy hanging out at a Vidor fan's website only to pick it apart. C'mon man be classier than that. He is just a fan stating his opinion on his site.

Barbay.....his scheme is rather simple. He is consistent and he knocks off bigger schools every year.

Are you bipolar? Seriously....one thread you have Silsbee and Kirbyville going head to head for the second spot then in the next thread you want to bash Silsbee or whoever K'ville is playing. You have a weekly pattern going on here. It is fine to think HF will win or whatever but you flip flop more than a pancake.

Last week PNG was playing very well with their only loss to then #1 ranked Brenham. Yes, they lost last week but that does not make them a bad team all of a sudden. On the same hand LCM played well and deserved the win, but that doesn't make them an elite force in that district....yet. Consistency is the key here. What everyone needs to understand about these rankings is 7-10 people rank the teams and points are assigned to each position (1st-25th). In the end as you can imagine some teams collect more than they should while others do not. It is not a slight but based on the opinion of 7-10 individuals. There would be a lot of people who disagree with my rankings and I theirs.

Amazing that same Silsbee team that lost to Liberty and HJ was the same team that beat K'ville in K'ville. As far as losing in round #1. What's the shame in losing to a solid Palestine team? They have been very solid over the past few years. Also, not to nitpick, but you are not making sentences that make any sense. "Silsbee may improved from last year but don't seeing do much like everybody predicting." :| Here's hoping OF has a great game.
