Will this game be  live streamed ?

Typically 1813 News is live on the sideline, and Cajun Country Radio does some sort of stream also. Unsure if they are just audio or not. I'm also not sure about Texas Live or NFHS Live.

the only factor that MIGHT help Vidor is the rain, and that's a hard maybe. The rain can make it anybody's game. However, if Lindale is able to hold onto the ball, they will run the game. Vidor cant hold onto the ball with it taped to them, so I'm not looking for our offense to get rollin' much tonight. 

I haven't watched any film of them, but from their scores you can definitely tell they know how to score. 

Weather forecast is not looking good for Thursday. Hopefully if it stays that way, they will reschedule before everyone travels that way.

I think he motivated the team

Motivated much better, culture was much better, and the results were at least prettier. We may have a similar record to what Matthews would produce this year, but its not impressive football.

If you look up Raiders on Max Preps it has a video of top 5  plays from around the state on it. # 1  play was acrobatic move of Lumberton’s linebacker Easton Stapleton. What it doesn’t show is that he did it twice in a row.

Actually, after watching that video, it was top 5 plays in the nation.

Doesnt show his offsides calls back to back either. cool idea, but crossed too early. 

Hopefully we get it figured out this week. We seem to either be completely on or completely off. Thanks for a chat without it turning ugly lol.

Livingston is a heavy run team. I think they will be in the mix for a playoff spot 3 or 4. If yall can stop the run yall should beat them 

Depends if our defense shows up and what positions the kids are put in. Last week against Lumberton coaches switched to a stack defense with three inside linebackers and no safety. Needless to say, after two drives they were scrambling to change. Against LCM, their QB sneak worked all night long, we never figured it out. Only time will tell. 

Very disappointing last two games for Vidor (LCM and Lumberton). Lots of talent on the field and on the bench, but no discipline or team attitude. As another pointed out on a different thread, lots of kids all about their selves, not the team. Team has lacked a motivator (coach or student leader) or any want to win. Hopefully we win the next three (Livingston, HH, Splendora) and end up in third. We should, but never say never.

I do.  Mathews was a great motivator and got the best out those young men.  So far I'm not seeing that with the new HC.  The kids look to be very undiscipline (not all of them).

 

Matthews is the one pumping up the guys on the sidelines every game. All I’m gonna say 🤷🏼‍♀️👀

The changes had to be made.  Lost the starting safety to a knee injury.

Our second string safety did just fine the entire game after the injury to the starter. It was not a secret that LCM is a running team this year, yet coaches moved our best outside linebacker to safety. Not a good move. Also put a middle linebacker out at outside lb and let him start despite the talented depth at that position. 

Vidor had two weeks to prepare for LCM yet it looked like they didn’t watch a second of film. Very questionable position moves that changed vidor defense not for the better. That being said, hopefully better coaching decisions will be made this week.

Ok since vidors starting safety is out. Lcms best RB isn't eligible for a few more weeks... but we haven't mentioned a word about it. 🤷‍♂️

which RB isnt eligible?  

This week will be a good test for Vidor (playing LCM). I might be biased, but I’m not counting them out in the Lumberton game. Vidor vs Lumberton is in Vidor this year, and it’s our homecoming game. Given the right conditions (depth, prep, etc), Vidor could win the game.

Vidor by 10… Maybe fewer depending on their safety. Haven’t heard if he’s out.

Safety is out with partially torn MCL. There have been moves to compensate, we will see how those shake out. Overall, I still think Vidor pulls it out by 10 or 14.
