  1. If you think they mirror each other in what they do. Look at both teams stats. You should see they season stat lines. They are almost exactly identical. PNG Indians Passing 1850 yards 25 TDs 3 INT Rushing 3813 yards 43 TDs Total YPG 377 5663 yards for season. SOC Passing 2220 31 TDs 6 INT Rushing 3383 46 TDs Season YPG 373 5603 yards for the season.
  2. Plus the Indian players will be spending the night and not driving up right before the game.
  3. Leaving for The Berry Center. See you at the game. Safe travels PN-G and LH. Good luck tonight. May the best team win.
  4. Thankyou. LH fans are very good fans. I take my hat off to your community and team.
  5. A vert special memory for me my grandfather took me to the game and Ive since lost him. He was a Silsbee graduate and really liked Newton. He lived at Sam Rayburn near Plum Ridge and went to a few Newton games. He was a standout on the 1943 and 44 Silsbee basketball teams. He had a scholarship to Lamar and then 82 years ago yesterday happened and they cancelled Lamar basketball because of the war. He never got to play in college. Anyways I digress. It is one of my fondest memories watching Newton win state.
  6. Thank you for the post. I will say this. From an inside source we had an offer on the table that would not of mattered and it was turned down by LH, Please understand I am in no way saying LH doesnt have a right to agree were to play or flip. I respect the gamenship. I know exactly what was said and that the venue that could have held everyone comfortable was turned down by LH. PNG is well known for their following, This goes all the way to the beginning when we were playing in the late 20s and early 30s and they had two hundred seat wooden stands and 6000 people would show up and sit in cars, lawn chairs, on blankets and so on to watch PNG. By the 30s they were in the10-1500 range. By the 50s the 20000 range and we all know about the 1970s. The real question is how does a small town the size of PNG set the all time attendance record? 5 of the top 10 attendance records in this wonderful state. Anyway best of luck LH and safe travels/
  7. By the way we are building a PN-G library of football games on video, 8mm, or whatever you may have. We have already obtained games from the 1950's 1960's 1970's 1980s. 1990's 2000's. We only have a game or two of some of those decades. We actually have 2 games of PNGs all time leading rusher from 1955 Gordon LeBoeuf. If anyone is willing to share please message me.
  8. I have nothing but respect for LH. Even spoke with the coach the week after the game. He was a very respectable and had much sportsmanship. He wished us the best and said he hoped we won it all. I am thankful for teams like LH who have and know what sportsmanship is. Last year after the final play a LH player laid on the field upset. Two Indians ran over and helped him up and hugged him. It was a beautiful thing. I have been told on here I am not the person who can determine what sportsmanship is that its subjective. I disagree. Sportsmanship is what it is. PNG and LH both have it. So does Brenham, and Dayton. Their are others just some on the top of my head.
  9. PNG usually likes it when a team runs up the middle. Our three down linemen are 280, 270, 270.
  10. Once again TY for joining and sharing with us, like I said its great to have good shared discussion
  11. Maybe it was because they had the lead and Huntsville (credit to their defense) knew we were going to run most plays. Dont discount Huntsville's defense.
  12. I believe NDN Press reached over 7k online for this past week may have been 7.8k in the 4th. Many were from other areas. SOC, Huntsville, and people from all SETX schools for the most part. Even some special viewers like the old PNG coaches and historians. Wade Phillips was at the game rooting for his alma mater.
  13. Welcome aboard. Great to have you. Always cool to see a member from the other sides thoughts. Glad to have you.
  14. Defense. Something WOS taught me. Thats how you get to State. LH has given up 476 points this season. PN-G has given u 214 for the whole season. LH 34 PPG PNG 15.2 PPG many of those on the 3rd and 4th against back ups.
  15. Ty We sure were pulling for you. I went and watched you guys play for state way back in the 1998 with my grandfather (Lord Knows I miss him) in Nacogdoches. I thought is was Lufkin but so many years ago I guess it could have been Nac. Great Season Eagles looks like your trajectory is up.
  16. How many turnovers Piepers qb was in a walking boot all week
  17. Love me some Timpson and Garrison both. I cant lose in this one.
