Nope! Coaching makes a huge difference! But you also have to have the kids. What I’m saying is this group puts in the work. Coach puts them in the right situations to be successful! I just don’t know anything about the lower levels. 

I’d love nothing more than for Stephenville and Lumberton to meet for a state championship.  I was pulling for LCM to make it happen last year.   
 

You make a great point. Lumberton lost to one of thr top teams in the state. Not just a top private school but highly ranked out of all Texas Schools. Was looking to be a good game until almost an hour lightning delay, sloppy field and 4 turnover (3 in the RedZone) not excuses just facts. Lumberton is much more talented than most people think. The offense is clearly one of the best in the Region. If the defense buckles down. It's gonna be interesting.

Ratings are an excellent conversation piece.  Nothing more - nothing less. Does Ltown deserve #7 ranking?  I’d say as much as anyone else.  They’re sitting at 6-1, their only loss to a 7-0 team.  No doubt there are teams not ranked, or ranked below Ltown who might beat them - AND - there are teams ranked above them Ltown would probably beat.
Bottom line, I’m glad to see local teams getting recognition.  Most SETX Teams get overlooked in these polls except WOS & Newton.  Enjoy the ranking Raiders.  Keep rolling.

Lumberton O Line just man handling Vidor. 

Nope.. they earner the number 1 rating tonight. 🖕
Just kidding I really like your team this year.

Lumberton wins the district easily, only question is who they will have in the playoffs. Vidor is still in good shape by beating LCM, the battle for 2nd place is all that remains.

I wonder if Lumberton has earned their number 7 rating yet?😅

We will take the small victories then.
Congrats to Ltown you guys look really good.
Been calling you Ltown for years and for good reason might have to change that to Wtown for this season.

And the Raiders are for real.  Wow. 

That’s how you manhandle someone 😂☠️😂

But when Lumberton beats them, that’ll put them with 2 losses, right? 😎

But Tatum scored I think 2 tds on our backups.

Considering HF just took down WOS, I wouldn't count on it against them and with Tatum. like RG said two scores were against backups.

This is a classic game of “whack-a-mole” for Ltown and “keepaway” for Vidor.  Ltown must stop the Slot T to get the ball.  Vidor has to grind out yards & clock to score.  Ltown no ball - no score.  Vidor’s best D is keeping the Ltown O on the bench.  Vidor gets into 3 & out, this’ll turn into a slaughter.
As I said last week, hope for a good game with no injuries.
Go Pirates!

Well true , forgot about that but it was more like punts. Lol. I guess I meant fumble turnovers. 😶 Just the fact that we threw more than 2 passes is amazing. We don’t watch out we may turn into a spread offense. Lol

🤣🤣🤣 dog gon it!  I fat fingered a 2, I meant 3 TDs. Idk what’s worse. My math or ability to use technology. Either way, Lumberton wins here. 😎

That statement was to mess with 89falcon lol......we knew what we were getting into when we saw it scheduled and are ok with it....win, lose, or draw.
We graduated 29, got a new staff, and have implemented a new system. Went from one extreme to the other. Couple that with our enrollment of 484 to yalls 1244......and well....scheduling yall seems crazy. After realignment yall needed a game, we needed a game. And from my understanding Keeling and Reyes are buds in the coaching world. Yall haven't played a smashmouth run team and we want to keep getting better before district so It works out. I don't see where either of us could do wrong from this matchup. Good luck to yall.....hope we see a classic that's injury free. 

I hope we keep it that close. By fr the best team we will face this season. 

You are correct 409.  The OLB's look like they could play defensive end, but then again so do the ones that are playing there already!  I did see #0 cover down the field about 30 yards and make an unbelievable jumping deflection in the end zone.  One of the most impressive things I've seen from somebody that big.  

I thought this was a basically open forum where THOUGHTS could be expressed? OMG its not like the guy dropped a bunch of F-bombs or called the coaches a bunch of nasty names. He said "Perspective and In my opinion". I have no idea if the guy is right or wrong, or somewhere in between, but shouldn't the guy get some latitude here?  
Some hear are WAY too sensitive. Heck I just got cussed by a very well known poster here and I didn't even blink. 
 

Very impressed with Tatum. Very athletic team. QB can go! Ward ended up with 18-193yds & 2 TDs. It was hot! Good luck rest of the season!
