Particularly since Foster is a senior this year.

I have not been told if Brisbane is getting the start tonight. Guess we will find out.

I heard he missed some practices. So he still might play just not start.

Dodd did play well, but to be honest, it was garbage time at that point. By all means give him (and Miller) the ball a little more to see if they can keep it up.

We've got an endless stable of running backs. I almost want to see Jones focus on just defense now. He had PG running the ball away from him last night.

 

Miller is a freshman and has time to develop. There are other RB who have the speed and talent who can do just as well IF given the chance. Dodd and Martin deserve the opportunity to compete. I’ve yet to see Martin run the ball on offense. But after speaking with the kid and his mom. It’s not a main factor for him while at Silsbee.

Silsbee run game will get a big shot in the arm when Arline returns. I would like to see Miller and Lockett in the backfield along with Jones. Miller needs more carries. 

I would like to see Dodd more in the backfield. It’s evident they have several RB if given the chance to compete could be beneficial to the team. Miller is a good kid but putting him over the other RB on team is a bad move.

Once again like the last year or two,   there is the big calls for a qb change.  The thing is you have a qb that has been to 2 straight state semi finals.  He has proven himself to be a winner.  He starts off slow each year but gets better. He just faced a team that has been to 3 straight state championships winning 2 of them.  Tuff to replace a guy in a case like that.

With that said,  his passing game has never been that impressive overall.  Accuracy overall has been questionable.  His strength has been his receivers honestly.  The past couple years he has had a receiver or two that he could throw the ball up and trust to go get it.  This year noone appears to be able to step into that position.  Several missed opportunities either drops or bad throws.  Maybe a returning Gilder can step into that role.

I do like what I have seen from Brisbane and would definitely like to see him get his chance.  Especially if our passing game is going nowhere.  He definitely throw a better ball.

When Gilder comes back. He should see some time  at QB.

I heard from a WB source that he will back up Anderson.  Wasn’t that the same situation he would’ve been in backing up Foster in Silsbee?  🤷🏾‍♂️

Yes. He will be backing up Anderson. And I’m sure it’s more to the Silsbee story than that. Nevertheless he is happy there. 

28-10 Westbrook. 

Westbrook leading. Briscoe at QB. Looks good. Just threw for a TD.

over time I think I have made it clear that I am a fan/supporter of our Purple friends to the east of us. I will continue to be regardless of the outcome Friday night.

That said, it surprises me that quiet a few folks seem to think that the DAWGS are gonna win easily. Yes they have a young roster and yes it's their first game.  it is still NEWTON where athletic bloodlines run DEEP and no matter wheny or who they play those young men are gonna "Bring It".

While the DAWGS in a Win against silsbee looked real good at times , not so much other times. Too much of "not so much" and Newton will be giving us our first "L" on the season.

GO DAWGS GO!!

I agree with you to a certain extent. Although Jasper was winning 20-14 in the 2nd quarter with 3:15 left in the half. You can hardly call that a W. But if that’s what feeds the DAWGS their motivation by all means eat it up. Too much game was left to be played. The weather won that game.

2015.  They lost 48-6 to the eventual Class 4A, Division II State Champs in Week 5.

Exactly 5 years ago in a state game. No need to elaborate.

I'm going with Jasper by 3 touchdowns that #34 is a beast if that game didn't get cancelled Jasper would've be silsbee by alot

We are talking about Newton. When the last time you seen Newton get beat by 3 touchdowns?

Young is an understatement. With Arline and Hatton out for a while, Silsbee has zero varsity experience in the defensive backfield. It showed against Jasper. But they did get better in that 2nd Q vs. the 1st Q. Particularly when the two freshmen were put in at DB.

But like I said, based on what little I saw of Jasper's passing game and Lumberton's passing game from Friday night, Lumberton will be a greater challenge in stopping the pass for these young Tigers.

No young is what they are. Arline and Hatton are not playing right now are they? So yes they are young. The starters they have will be just fine. Give the team time. First game of the year. I didn’t see much difference in how they played.

After the severe behind whipping Jasper was putting on Silsbee prior to the weather cancellation, Lumberton may win this one.

 

 

Lol, the Devil made me do it.

That’s why the game is designed to play four quarters. 20-14 is not a behind whooping IMO.

I am very scared for the Tiger secondary. They need to get much better very soon.

I can see Lumberton giving them some fits with their passing game which is much better than Jasper's. Silsbee will have to control the line and get pressure.

Silsbee will have to get their passing game going. Lumberton will stack the box and dare Silsbee to throw.

They are young and with any young team they will get better. There is a lot of talent back there. It’s their  first time playing Varsity.  The whole team have a lot of work to do. But they’ll get there. 

Newton got this.

not the officials decision.

all they can do is suspend the game.

the conference will decided what to do after that.

majority of the time since it is not a district game they call it a GAME and move on.

Suspending the Game ARTICLE 3. a. The referee may suspend the game temporarily when conditions warrant such action. b. When the game is stopped by actions of a person(s) not subject to the rules or for any other reasons not in the rules and cannot continue, the referee shall: 1. Suspend play and direct the players to their team areas. 2. Refer the problem to those responsible for the game’s management. 3. Resume the game when he determines conditions are satisfactory. c. If a game is suspended under Rules 3-3-3-a and b before the end of the fourth period and cannot be resumed, there are four possible options: 1. Resume the game at a later date; 2. Terminate the game with a determined final score; 3. Forfeit of the game; or 4. Declare a no contest. The option that takes effect shall be determined by conference policy if both institutions are members of the same conference. In non-conference competition, the directors of athletics at the participating institutions or their designees, in consultation with the coaches, must agree on one of the four options. This agreement will include the final score if the game is terminated (Rule 8-1-2). d. If a game is suspended under Rules 3-3-3-a and b after four periods of play and cannot be resumed, the game shall be ruled a tie. The final score shall be the score at the end of the last completed period. (Note: If a winner must be determined in a conference playoff game, conference policy shall determine when and where the game will be resumed.) e. A suspended game, if resumed, will begin with the same time remaining and under the identical conditions of down, distance, field position and player eligibility.

 

i heard the silsbee coach cried and complained so jasper coach agreed to a no contest.  SMH. no stats for the players from this game oh sorry i mean no contest..... lol 

You can’t determine a winner and 2 full quarters haven’t been played. NCAA rules reference a suspension or and 4 quarters have been played.  There are options 1-4. Which both sides agreed on option 4. Which is the more realistic. 

Jasper not going back to school until 9/8/2020. Is the game canceled?

That's not really surprising. I've heard that a lot of town is still without power and it may not be restored for a few days. I would think that Barbay would schedule somebody and play a road game. He''s done it before. 

Heard the power is being restored. May get to play after all.

I look for the coaches to keep him on the defensive side this year.

Also, the freshmen Miller kid will likely be on varsity this year and will help the secondary. He is the future star RB for 

it’s going to be interesting to see how this plays out. Martin definitely has speed and talent  was told he is the fastest in his class. I think the coaches know what they got and will use it.  He is a sophomore.
