Sonnier now at QB

Brady at QB in wildcat.

False start PNG burns 2nd TO in 1st 2 min. Hope they don't need those later. Incomplete pass Nederland ball

4th and 4 for the Indians. They were lined up to go for it but called TO.

Attaberry fumbles. PNG ball on the Ned 30

Nederland wins toss and will recieve

PNG fans booing the Nederland school song. That's Classy!

Vidor should win this game. I don't think Lumberton can slow down the Pirate's rushing attack. Should be an exciting, high scoring game. Good Luck to both teams!

Someone put an add on here yesterday for the "magic pill" but the thread got deleted. Hopefully Neumann got to order his before the thread was taken down.

Dumb play by the kid, but Why did the coach have two players back on the FG attempt? That loss is the coaches fault. Its hard to blame 18 year old kids for getting excited. [Hidden Content],193475

Dayton @ Houston North Forest LCM @ Central Livingston @ Ozen Vidor @ Lumberton Nederland @ PNG Silsbee @ Jasper WOS @ Brookshire Royal Cleveland @ Liberty Hardin @ Anahuac Buna @ Kountze Deweyville @ EC Colmesneil @ West Hardin Evadale @ Hull Daisetta Diboll @ Nach Barbers Hill @ Kingwood Park Coldspring @ Shepard Goose Creek Mem @ Crosby Galena Park YJ @ Houston CE King Splendora @ Huffman Burkeville @ High Island

That pretty much sums it up. Oh and the WOS posters keep saying everyone hates them.

I've been getting text messages all week that play that dang song. I'm tired of hearing it already and the game hasn't even started yet. I will say that Cherokee is by far the best fight song I've heard in high school sports.(just don't tell anyone I said that)

Livingston by 3 TD's

Some facts about Nederland's offense: Power I - 11 straight playoff appearances when only 2, then 3 teams made it from every district. Spread - In their 3rd year in this offense the Dogs have 1 playoff appearance. They now take 4 teams! I guess going to the playoffs every year wasn't good enough, so we changed the offense and now go every 3 years.

I agree about the quantity. Nederland has 4 or 5 kids that go both ways most of the time, and a few others that see some action on both sides. PN-G has 0.

I'd disagree with this completely....the spread can take advantage of whatever you have....size or speed...it puts players in more 1 on 1 matchups. Now if you're going to line up and run the I or the wishbone then it's much more dependent on having big linemen that can dominate the line of scrimmage....hence MUCH more dependent on your personnel. Bill Walsh "created" the west coast offense while in Cincy under Paul Brown to address their inability to run the football because they didn't have the personnel to do it. As for your defense, I still have no idea how what offense you're running impacts the way you play defense?? If your defense sucks while you run the spread it will ALSO suck when you run the I formation. I agree with that to a point. The offense can help the defense by controlling the clock. There have been multiple games in the last few years when the defense was on the field around 75% of the time. If your defense is fresh in the 4Th quarter they will play better, I don't care what offense you run. Too many times this year the defense makes a stop and the Offense goes 3 & out or commits a turnover. In a game last year, the defense made a stop and the offense got the ball back with 3 minutes to go in the game and a 7 point lead. After 3 straight incompletions, 14 seconds were burnt off the clock. That is not a spread problem, its a play calling problem. Against Ozen, Nederland only allowed 10 points in regulation. That should be good enough to win most games. If the offense can hold onto the ball and control the clock with a good running game, the defense will be fine.

Running the ball and eating clock will help the Defense.

Bunting should be taught WAY before high school. If you learn to handle the bat at an early age, it carries over throughout your high school career.

I guess I don't know about the 8 hour rule.

I disagree with that. A really good bunter gets it down 9 out of 10 times or more. Maybe ya'll have some guys at Carthage hitting .900, if so 3a better watch out.

I was watching the highlights of the Twins-Tigers game from yesterday and it got me thinking. The Twins had a chance to tie for the division lead with 5 games to play. 9th inning runner on 3rd- Twins attempt Squeeze only to pop it up into a double play. Is the squeeze worth the risk?? Pefectly executed it is unstoppable, but mess it up your rally is over. In the games I have seen over the last few years, I would say the success rate is way below 50%. I've seen a lot more missed attempts and pop ups than successfull bunts. It seems that bunting in general is a lost art. I had a select coach tell me one time, "the parents don't pay me to teach bunting." Is that the problem? Is it not taught at a young age? Every parent wants their kid to be a homerun hitter, but being able to handle the bat can lead to just as many wins as longballs. Any thoughts? Oh yeah, Is it baseball season yet???

If buses are the problem, you would think some parents would load up their cars and haul the kids. I know I would for my kid. If the girls would rather be at the football game, then that's a whole nother story.

OF is loaded and will have a very good run this year, but they need to beat BC with Hicks on the mound to jump them in the polls IMO. What position does Huckabay play?

Could see Qb's #4 and #5 on the year for Nederland.
