On paper, PNG's the better team and I think we'll prove it on the field. But, this is a dangerous game against a dangerous team. Huntsville's better than their record. They're faster than anyone PNG's played all season. La Porte tried to run right through us. Huntsville gets most of their yards around the edge. They're really, really quick doing it. They have four or five guys who've hit 20 mph in practice. I'm confident in our run defense, but this is a different challenge than La Porte. Not saying Huntsville's better than La Porte (Sean Simon just singlehandedly beat Kingwood Park) -- But, it's a different speed and a different approach. If we don't handle it, the Hornets are going to punish us. We'll move the ball. I'm not impressed with the Huntsville secondary, and the tackling hasn't been up to the Coach Southern standard. It's going to come down to the defenses, and turnovers. I'm going to go with PNG 35-24.

La Porte is giving up on the run too soon. They pass it as soon as Simon gets stuffed.

Well now I’ll wait for you to do updates - I’m way ahead of you

!!:7/0/1 Simon takes it 75 yds on first play from scrimmage

This one’s interesting. It comes down to whether Nederland can move the ball enough to keep up with Dayton’s offense. Dayton’s offense is fast, executing well, and capable of scoring in bunches. They’re going to score on Nederland, and I think they’ll score a lot. Nederland’s offense showed improvement against Splendora, and while I think everyone would agree Splendora’s not representative of anyone else in the district, I’m also going to give Nederland the benefit of the doubt that the offense is steadily improving at some rate greater than zero. Dayton’s defense doesn’t seem to be doing anything special, but they’ve mostly played pretty well. I think it’s a mismatch. Nederland won’t be able to stop Dayton for four quarters, and I don’t think Nederland’s offense can keep up. I’m going to go with Dayton, 42-17.

I agree

Huntsville made it to the 4th round that year, just barely losing to a very big, very fast Fort Bend Marshall team.

I don’t know - I assumed with all the new Fort Bend growth over the past few years there must have been some talent drain. But I don’t know where all the boundaries are.

This one’s crazy. FBM hasn’t been nearly as formidable for a couple years now, but talk about a nail in the coffin.

Can we get a poll on this one?

It’s turning into the Curse of the Bambino

Hard to believe there was a petition to get rid of him

Yep - Our O-line couldn’t do anything to protect him

They played us at the Reservation in 2018.

PAM wins. It won’t be close.

Good job bulldogs! Looks to me like there was a lot more variety in the offense last night

I just saw this score. Talk about lopsided.

This has turned into batting practice for Bailey and WRs. Hope the reps are helpful down the road.

Their offense has absolutely nothing they can do

I don’t know why they keep going deep. Just get four yards. We don’t need to hit home runs.

Yeah I guess - LWC is a freaking superhero though.

It’s going to be ridiculous if Iowa Colony drops in the rankings.

LWC is inhuman. Everyone outside of region 3 is glad they can only face one of these teams. These teams are stacked. Game of the year in the 5ad2 regular season happening right now

Looking at the hudl highlights for LC, the QB is pretty fast when he gets a head of steam. RB is isn’t fast but he’s stocky and strong and keeps his legs moving. He’s certainly not a Sean Simon or Micah Rhodes. A power run team, and the o-line opens up some holes. WR #80 has some wheels on kickoff return. Other than #80 and the qb, not a lot of speed. The tackling isn’t anything special and the secondary is still figuring out where to be. O-line is good. D-line is undersized. Offense not nearly as explosive as the last three years. Qb can be accurate with the deep ball so our secondary will get tested, especially if I’m right that they won’t be able to run the ball against us.
