Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. I'm glad I wasn't able to make it to this game now. 

Very cool. Sounds like Woodville is here to play this year.

Don't worry Jason, as Newton fans we don't let it bother us. 

Umm....maybe not from you NewtonNation, but I can assure you the disrespect has been dished out from Newton fans on here AT LEAST as much as from the Kirbyville fans. The last couple yrs especially since we didn't play each other. But, like you, us respectable Kirbyville fans don't let it bother us either. 

  All I can say about this game is, it's Kirbyville vs. Newton. Anybody from EITHER side in any given yr that thinks their team has it in the bag when this game is played is sorely mistaken. Newton seems to be where they should be right now, and Kirbyville looks like they need some work. Soooo....on paper it don't look good for us. Luckily, this game isn't played on paper. 

Kirbyville will come to play, and Newton will not overlook us. Those are facts. One team is almost always going to be favored and this year I think we all agree that it's Newton. Now, ask anybody from Kirbyville, OR anyone from Newton, how much stock they put in predictions. Let's just play some football.

This should be a good game by all accounts. I'll never pick against my Cats but we lost a lot from last yr, and are going to be facing a VERY tough Eagle team picked by many to make another state run. So if we're gonna pull this out it'll be by pure grit, will and a heck of a want-it attitude. I say Kirbyville by 1, cause that's all that matters. Good luck to both teams. I'll see yall there. 

Scrimmages don't mean everything right? Well, they don't mean nothing either though. Kirbyville lost a lot from last yr that's true, but many teams have lost a lot and still walked to state. We can't have excuses, or let a scrimmage dictate our season. We'll be ok. Just need to put in the work like we always do to show we're still for real. Plus, I think Center is a LOT better than some may have thought. 

I see it like most everyone is seeing it I believe...Kirbyville and Coldspring a toss-up for 1st...and Woodville/Buna/ Kountze looking for the other spots. In my humble opinion of course. But no matter what, I'm beyond ready for the season to start. I just love high school football. 

Been waiting for several years for this one. I'll be there 3 hrs early. :-)

Gotta add too that missed extra points or conversions were the difference in this game and that SUCKS!

This is heart breaking. Second year in a row we're eliminated by a TD or less in games that we could have won. West did what they had to do though. No excuses. We just couldn't execute when we needed to. Great season Cats. Looking forward to next year. 

Both. We dominated the 1st qtr but also made bad mistakes in the passing game. Add that to the fact West's quarterback is good and their coaches have seen some weaknesses. We still can take this but we need to step up.

We're a second half team so I'm still confident after the way we dominated the 1st qtr. Our coaches are good at figuring things out too and I know they will. 

All the blowout wins and 60pt offensive showcases mean nothing now. From here on out, we just need to win....by 1 or by 70. Kirbyville has the offensive AND defensive weapons to compete with any team in 3a div. 1. We can beat West and I think we will, easily. I don't care if it's a blowout or not.

Kirbyville will be unchallenged till round 3. We'll take this game by 4+ scores. 

What in the name of all that is holy? Where did this come from? I wasn't saying anything negative about WO-S. I fully believe they should be ranked ahead of us. I was responding to someones claims that Kirbyville didn't deserve the votes they got. Since you opened the can though I will say this....would Foster use Kirbyville for 'toilet paper' as you put it? Maybe, maybe not. One things for sure though....they DID wipe their butts with WO-S. 

Kirbyvilles 'woes' that you mentioned were the first 2 games of the year. I'd say we're not the same team as we were then. Go look at what we've done since. Also, WO-S did get blown out in their loss. (and don't give me that strength of opponent bull either. If you can't beat em, don't schedule them)  I say the rankings look fine. Quit whining.

From the 3a level and up, give me the good coach. The 2a level and down though, one or two awesome players can come through a school and pretty much carry it themselves just based on pure, raw talent. Overall I'd pick good coaching, but even a great coached team from a small school with few players to choose from would have their hands full facing a team with a couple of those rare players you only see once in a while.

2-2. EC won in '12 and '13. Kirbyville the last two years.

Doesn't matter how near or far....we're better. Lol

1. Coaching was good on both sides.

2. EC was definitely more disciplined based simply on the lopsided penalty calls. So that kinda kills that theory.

3. Silcox was good, but we had no problems containing him....even before he left the game. Besides, we had 4 or 5 players that were as good or better anyway.

4. True, it did. Lol..

Y'all had no chance at any point in the game. EC is good, but Kirbyville was by far the better team. Everybody saw it. Btw, I think by 'owned', he more meant the fact we beat y'all the last two years....not that we blew y'all out.

Talk is all you have when there's no way of backing it up on the field. I can promise you that NO ONE is giving your comment any credibility.....and EVERYONE knows both teams would compete with any you listed and beating them would shock no one. Go find a thread where someone cares and will listen to you, goblin.

EC has a very good, solid football team. They are just as disciplined as everyone said...which is why they were only penalized once. But Kirbyvilles defense shut them down, and our offense was just too much to contain for 4 qtrs. I'm thinking a LOT of crows are about to be led to the slaughter for all those EC pickers. Come 'n get it! 

Seriously? Penalties on both sides? You can't be serious. EC had one pass interference called on them and that was it. Kirbyville was non-stop penalised all night. I'm not saying they weren't real, but there's no way you can say with a straight face the penalties were pretty much equal. Kirbyville controlled this game from start to finish. I tried to tell y'all we were the better team. I guess you had to be shown. 

Awesome game so far. We need to stop the stupid penalties though and get a little more accurate on the passes. Both defenses are all they were advertised.
