Yeah just wait til week 7 and 8.

They must be out of his meds at CVS.

Same argument Vidor makes almost every year,  smh.  All returning starters are not created equal.  Returning starters from a "D" that gave up 42 pts vs PNG and 51 vs  Nederland isn't the same as returning starters that held them down under 25 or less.

LOL!!!!!! You mad BROSCHON?  PEACE! 

I rather fly under the radar, rankings dont matter come week12.

I dont normally agree with you publicly about the INdians but your probably right on about this one

Oh lawd, they'll get bigheaded now. Lol

We have the pieces, now we just gotta put it together lol 

Where is the evidence that Lumberton has a "decent" D? Lumberton has played one full game against a school with less than 600 kids (and isn't WO-S), a school that is a perennial bottom feeder in its own classification. PNG already has shown the ability to make stops against good backs when it matters, so I don't know what indications exist that PNG won't stop Lumberton's run game. There isn't a Calvin Tyler playing for Lumberton, and even if there was, we would be okay. Lumberton may be better than recent years -- Maybe even better than last year. But Lumberton is unproven, and history is not on its side (Lumberton is 1-16 against PNG all time, and that one victory was in a year where PNG went 3-6).
Think about that-- At Lumberton's best (2008), they managed to beat one of PNG's worst by a mere seven points. 
Statistics don't win games, but they are at least an interesting indicator of potential future outcomes. In the series, PNG has outscored Lumberton 656-238. PNG averages 38.6 ppg against Lumberton. Lumberton averages 14. Last year, when Lumberton finally looked like it might be turning a corner, PNG scored easily and often. 
Lumberton will have to stop PNG's QB, running back, receivers, and o-line, all of whom have demonstrable ability to produce. Lumberton also has to somehow overpower a PNG defensive line that has been fairly successful against much faster backs than what Lumberton has waiting in the stables. I'll admit, I haven't seen Lumberton play, but I did get a chance to see PNG against WO-S in August (scrimmage) -- PNG can hang with the run. 
It may be a good game -- It might also be incredibly boring. 
 

Thanks for the history lesson.
The "decent d" reference was because we have 9 returning starters, so basically the same defense that put a stop to Vidor's infamous run game last year, and we did the same thing that yall did to Calvin Tyler last year, except he played with a dual threat qb that was actually utilized. Everyone on this site knows that the play calling from Silsbee was horrible that night, if they would have let Jones run/throw more it may have been a much closer game.
Now, you are 100% correct that we do not have Calvin Tyler running out of the back field. But when he puts 180 yards on yall with a line that has been labeled as "soft" by many people, then ill take our chances with a very physical offensive line... Or can I say that since we haven't played a game yet?
I've seen both teams scrimmage, and ive been both teams against a very weak opponent. Do I believe that we can win? Certainly. Will it happen? Nobody knows till Friday night.

I don't see this one as close as everyone else. I hope am wrong, but not buying into last weeks win by Vidor. Central easily takes this one by 35-7. 

Gotta admit, this is a good one. LOL

Haha thanks -- Believe me, I won't be "brown nosing" when PNG plays PA. 

My only caution is that texaslive.com has gone pay per view.  The subscription is not that expensive, but there is one.

Png continuously scoring on GCM tonight might make your head hurt worse. 

Oh Geesh....

Enjoy the site.

An honor to meet you Mr. Buddy Garrity -- I'm a long time reader of the forum.

Yes

I'm gonna watch the stream via texanlive.com. If there is an alternative I would like to know

I got your boy.  I was just talking to someone today about your kind, computer warriors.  No I wasn't a water boy, I just wasn't a dumb jock which apparently you were and still are.  Feel free to come see me at any practice evening at 88 Jaguar Dr.  I'll be the guy in the blue nomex shirt... 
The last part of your run on sentence once again really shows how little you know about football.  Just because you may have played, doesn't mean you know the game...
