I think we played more of a containment defense tonight. It appeared to me that we were just trying to keep the QB under control and not just put pressure on him. That appeared to take some of the intensity out of the line, but in the end they got the sack that counted.

Will all Bulldog fans please report to the stadium. Your needed to help with a special event that has not taken place since 1965. Don't be late._

Watching the Dogs play toss the cat!

That guy would be the top TE in Texas if they threw to him more!

#90 - De Shawn Washington can also play defense. He hasn't had to much this year, but he is a load when he goes in and we don't lose much!

What do you mean eat crow? With a good DC we wouldn't have given up any scores this year!..........smitty

I have seen a lot of bad officiating but that night had to be the worst ever!

Ozen should know all about field position, basically that's what cost them the game last year. You can't give the Dogs the ball deep in your end of the field with very little time left on the clock, more times than not they will find a way to score!

The one factor that everyone keeps forgetting about, District Championship!

Dogs rule :)

I don't remember the teams, but when I was young there was several instances of people messing with the buses so most of the local teams started having escorts. Some folks think it is fun harassing the buses but we know from the Beaumont incident several years ago bad things can happen real quick. 

You know Bum and Wade were invited to MCM, I hear that Alf has been called out of retirement to show up at this game.

Seriously, do you deny that Devonte Mays would not have made a difference against Nederland. Not saying that Nederland loses if Mays plays, just saying it would have been a different game. I have friends with kids playing for Nederland that agree. Mays wears you down. I still think Nederland beats Livingston, but I think it is a close game with Mays. To deny that is to show your Football ignorance and I don't think you are football ignorant.

Also if we use your reasoning above, PNG will destroy Vidor Friday night because we blew out Ozen and Lumberton. You and I both know that wont be hapening. Nederland was better than PNG that night. Not by much. Just like they were better than Vidor that night they played your guys, but not by much.

One of the problems with all of us fans is that when we compare games we always assume that everything stays the same. If we would have done this or if that player would have done that then we would have won. In reality we don't have a clue because we assume the other team plays exactly the same. When we played Livingston we threw a curve at them on defense, and they called two time outs in the first drive because they couldn't figure out our defense and they didn't have an answer all night long. We came out in a 5 - 2 defense and they had never seen it before, so saying what the "Bull" would have done is purely theoretical because no one up till that point had played against that defense!

Back on topic, PNG takes this one I don't know the score but I predict that Cherokee gets played in excess of 100 times.

Neches River Rumble.

ozen has a playoff spot to play for.nederland coaches will call the game not to lose which will cause the players to play not to lose instead of going for the the knock out punch.its a ned tradition since 1965.be prepared for an ozen upset??????????

If that were true then Friday night they should have been coaching not to lose against a team that hasn't won a game, but that wasn't the case and I don't expect Friday night to be any different. If they did try anything like that I would expect the fans to get on their case real quick. I believe the outright DC is that important to the team and the fans! I think we keep the foot on the pedal and not look back, besides that how do you coach a defense not to lose? Ask Lumberton, you start thinking you can move the ball and these guys prove you wrong. Dog 'D' pounds the cats ;D

Bottom line is the coaching staff keeps working on the things that need to be improved on. The defense never gave them an inch and by the third quarter Lumberton was still playing but without as much enthusiasm as the start of the game. The Dog's won and continue to get better and that's all that counts.

you are right, better not take anyone for granted or they will put a 'L' in the column. Stay focused and keep improving!

Smitty's like a hurricane, he just blows for a while and then he is gone.

Here we go again, trying to confuse the situation with facts again.

Sounds good, get him an old English 'N' for his helmet and let him go!

So it's ok to you for a kid to quit the program and come back now?
[/quote]

Kids quit the program for many reasons and you and I don't always know the reason. If the coach is good with it then that's what we pay him for so let him do his job. We also on occasion make decisions that are not so intelligent but we learn and move on, how would you like all your bad decisions to be held against you for the rest of your life?

Yep, these weeks are taking way to long ;D

Is it Friday yet?

Sounds good, get him an old English 'N' for his helmet and let him go!

Jake I think we have one big "it" factor going for us, this team appears to hate to lose! You look at every game they have been behind in and they find a way to get back on top with the exception being BH. It appears that they will do what ever it takes to get the 'W' and I don't expect anything different Friday.

I haven't heard a thing about his return!

There a few things that bother me...

[b]When a fan says, "We won."  You're not on the team, so you didn't win anything.[/b]

And in high school football, how good you are is a lot of luck.  No one determines how talented or athletic the people who go to their school are.  Coaches in high school teach work ethic and discipline, but you cannot teach quickness or agility.

Hate to rain on your parade, but me and a whole lot of other people pay a lot of money to build the stadium, build the school and pay for the uniforms and footballs, if we want to say "we won" then so be it. Try playing without us ;D
