I think it was #9. I don't remember his name for some reason.
 

I worked with that kicker a few years ago. He wouldn't tell most people his position, just that he didn't play much. I recognized him from the postgame award ceremony, but never really called him out about it. Once, another WOS alum and I were talking about the game. Not knowing that the kicker was standing there with us, he was cussing about how the kicker blew the game. I felt so bad for that kid. You could see in his eyes the pain. I went on to let the other guy know the kicker wasn't solely responsible. Young team, bad calls, DT being double teamed, and gilmer bringing in fresh DBs to cover him when he went both ways almost all game long. Along with our first trip to Jerryworld and playing on national TV at like 11am. Those kids learned alot that day, and it showed in 2015, 16 and even 17. The kicker also went on to be an outstanding, respectful young man. I'm glad to be able to call him a friend now.
Like I said in another post. Can't you see how bad I'm missing our WOS football?
Maybe now we can get back to the regularly scheduled programming.
WOS 2020

Enough to prolly win the district.  But that's about it.

Yea I can definitely understand but during the few years I lived in Longview I watched a Gilmer game against Liberty-Eylau I saw class but I can do you one better than what you stated... One year when I attended a Longview-Marshall game back in 2011 or 2012 fans were going at it and it reminded me of a Coldspring vs Cleveland game in either football or basketball and if any bored members know anything about Cleveland they do not take losses well especially against us

During the 2014 championship game, there was a group of gilmer fans in a suite box on the WOS side. They were extremely rude, wouldnt speak when I would ask questions. And I attempted to congratulate them and shake their hands afterword, absolutely no response. It was like I was invisible to them. Just my take on it. They thought they were too good or too rich to engage with lil ole WOS. Hopefully someday I can return the favor.
Now back to the upcoming contest...

I also remember when we were playing Gilmer in the first round in 2017 we were winning at halftime and I was walking to the concession stand and a group of Gilmer dancers and band were starting a ruckus of trash talking to some diboll fans 

Likewise. We always pull for you guys. Outstanding program with class. Good luck this season.

We are clearly the underdog here, lol. 

The players and cheerleaders attitudes towards our players after the game. 

I seriously doubt that!

Don't make me do it, my crimson and white friend.

Its been a minute, lol. We really don’t even know what we’ve got yet. We have our RB Gatson that has several d1 offers, Williams is a strong QB and I’m really not sure about the others. Between Covid and the hurricane we haven’t caught a break. Jasper may beat us but even an average Newton football team doesn’t get run all over. 🙃

2015.  They lost 48-6 to the eventual Class 4A, Division II State Champs in Week 5.

Figured I’d start the thread! Here we go

Hope Newton wins this one. Will be a good game.  Great to see this rivalry again even if it wasn’t originally scheduled. 

Didn't see this coming at all, especially after reading yesterday that Jasper wouldn't have a game this week. Nice work by both coaches to get this done on the fly! I'll take the Dawgs by 1. Should be a great one. 

Newton don't even know what they got yet, good first test out the gate

This is a great week for Kirbyville to cancel. Sorry, that was petty. Anyways, I think Jasper wins in a close one. Newton has a lot of key sophomores in key positions that will end up being very good, but they do not have a varsity game under their belt. Newton will get better every week, sweep their district and be a top 3A team in the state once again. They need time to find their identity, which will come. I just don't think Newton will be polished enough or experienced enough to beat a good Jasper Bulldogs team their first game of the season. Bulldogs in a close one, but I am rooting for my purple Eagles. 

Thanks for sharing. Great tribute. #PPND

2018 we got number 5! 

Dont they he knows Newton has about 4 or 5 state title. 

Your right about Smoaky. You can’t be sensitive on there

THIS.  We go 100% for our teams.  That's why I love supporting our local teams.  If our teams are not playing, we go all in for our neighboring teams until the last standing.  Last year,  it was West Brook and Newton.  This year, it was Silsbee.
