@Setx fan why are you not stating you will come back and revisit this comment?

That's a good analysis 👌

Orangefield at Woodville.

I am giving Woodville some points for being HOME.  However, I still think the Bobcats come away with the win here.

OF 20

WV 19

Do you think WV will challenge Newton? 

Right now I would say no but it will depend on where we are at week 7

Have not heard anyone say WV was going to fall of the map. Many are predicting WV to challenge Newton. Especially with the players that WV has and what those players have shown over the years. Also heard that new coaches is exactly what WV needed.

The picture people have painted of this years squad says none of what your saying now 

OF bobcats are preseason favorites to win district. Woodville eagles are supposed to fall off the map after changes in coaching staff and supposedly going 0-2 in scrimmages. Any thoughts on this match up?

Three (3) TSWA/Dave Campbell All-State defensive players are not on this team. Three All-Staters on a 3A D-II team are season changers. Most of the O-Line graduated. This is not the same team as last year. 
We will finish with a good season but anyone thinking we are automatic to return to state are not reasonable. 
We went to State on defense. We dominated the line of scrimmage at the start of each playoff game and took control of the games defensively. 

Defense is a issue as I mentioned earlier but it's mostly not having the right guys out there together. Need to rotate A. Sibilly, Davion Hill, and Nas Harris at the edge spots on the Dline. Need to rotate D.Barlow, C. Mayo, T. Haight, and possibly Nas Harris at the 2 DT spots. Need to rotate A. Esway, M. Menefee, K.Rigsby, A. Williams, and A. Sibilly at the 4 LB/SS spots. Look like we had the right DBs out there although they made costly mistakes that they need to clean up. I'm thinking the coaching staff was using the scrimmages to evaluate so hopefully they have it figured out. If we put the right guys out there we will have a good defense that will get better throughout the year

Nothings automatic but we didn't have 3 all staters at the beginning of last year either. We got ballers trust me. Sky's the limit. One game at a time though

The Livingston ones were only out there the first 10ish plays, Woodville didn't start moving it until the guys with the different pants came in for the lions. Pretty sure those were backups/JV. Skill wise I think Woodville will be fine, but they struggled up front against the starters from Livingston.

I'm guessing you didn't see when Woodville's 1s had there first 10 or 15 snaps at the start of the scrimmage before Livingston's 1s had there first possession. Cause they definitely moved the ball every possession and were the first to cross the goal line. Would have turned around and did it going the other direction if they hadn't run out of snaps. That's the only thing that really ended any of the drives was the limited snaps in the scrimmage format

When the ones were out there it was all Lions, when the twos came in Woodville moved it a little better. Long way to go for this Eagles team to recreate that magic from last season.

Woodville ones and 2s both moved the ball the entire scrimmage from the begging. Livingston ones had a couple big plays resulting in back to back scores on the 4th and 5th plays of their first possession. That doesn't happen in the natural flow of a real game because when you score you kick off to the other team  (or attempt a onside) and you have to try and stop them. They never stopped Woodville's offense. They scored again on the 10th play of that same possession against Woodville's 2s and never moved the ball much after that

Would you say that they have a lack of depth on defense and skilled players (certainly compared to last season)? Due to the fact that there's several key positions that they're trying to fill and solidify, are they looking at growing pains until the experience of playing at the varsity level kicks in? 

There's less depth up front. Still got plenty skill players.

Hearing WV was able to score a TD with Livingston scoring 3. WV 2s were able to score twice on LV JV. 
 

I am sure the WV folks are excited about the new season and the offensive improvement from last year. Keeping in mind that they could have beat Gunter last year with “better coaching” on offense. I imagine they will start "looking towards Newton" now that they scored a TD. 

Woodville 1st and second team offense moved the ball pretty consistently all during the scrimmage. Main concern is it looks like they don't have the defensive lineup figured out. First and second team defense was swapping out pretty rapidly so maybe they were evaluating and hopefully they have it figured out now. There were probably at least 2 DLine guys practicing with 2nd team that should have been with first team. I also think we need K. Rigsby playing a significant amount of snaps at OLB/MLB and D. Barlow playing around half the snaps at DT. Due to the situation with our defense I really thought Livingston should have scored more than that. They had 5 or 6 big plays scoring on 3 of them and didn't move the ball much other than that.

One team scores 7 times the other team scores none. The team that scored 7 times did not win but they beat the heck out of them. 

Kudos to whatever your trying to say.

Are they "capable of scoring against Crockett"? We haven't seen them do that at the "current level this year". 

It wouldn't matter unless there was an actual game between the 2. Buna supposedly beat Newton in a scrimmage last year according to some posters but only loonies would think Buna would've beaten them in a game. 

Folks got a lot to say based off what they heard about a scrimmage. It's wild to me considering the fact that I know what this group is capable of based on what I've seen them do on all levels the last few years. But yall carry on

Perhaps, but they definitely kept it to themselves. Probably don’t need to worry about Newton. 

Got 6 "games" before Newton. And you'll probably be silent and find something else to talk about during those 6 "games".

No. At this moment it appears that WV would be unable to beat Crockett.

Yea if you can't make the difference between a scrimmage and a game. Pretty sure Woodville would beat Crockett in a actual game. Newton is a different ball game but we'll figure that out as the season moves along

First scrimmage under new coaching staff and a different system against what seems to be an improved Crockett team who's always had talent anyway. Definitely need to fix things but no real shocker here. It's what scrimmages are for. New coach is still learning the personel and players still learning to execute in the new system. We get a couple "games" deep and we're still struggling we'll hit the panic button then

Not sure about that. He gets his job done. He is a major problem for defenses because he is a mismatch for anyone. 

I'll see if I can catch him in action

7 minutes ago, 89Falcon said:

He is decent. Not overly mobile but better than what you would expect. Understanding that there is more than one way to block. It is not possible to move him and the A and B gaps on his side are out of the equation for defenses. He plays G.

Sounds bout right. Probably has to take a lot of plays off

Center has one listed at 6'5" 400 and I know for certain he is well over 400. 

I wonder if he's any good. At 6'5, I'd say above 330 would probably be a bit too much in my opinion
