Kirbyville is not the team they were last year. Yes, they beat Woodville easily. But it was only as bad as it was because Woodville made a ton of mistakes and turned the ball over four times. They still would've beaten them, but not nearly as bad. They can still beat EC, but the Bucs are the better team this year. BUT.....this will be a great game and could go either way. I think EC wins at home and pulls away late.

Since I have not seen either team this year, I'm not in a position to judge either based on the "eye test". Based on what I have gleaned from the discussions regarding these two teams during the year,

I'm not making a prediction in this one.  This game always kills me.  I love my cats but always bleed my green and gold.  I just hope I'm well enough to make it.  I just want to be proud of both of th

Less than 24 hrs now till kickoff. It's the #1 offense in the district vs the #1 defense (as well as the #2 offense vs the #2 defense) This game has everything you hope to see in a high school footbal

EC plays the Buna Cougars, Friday night.

And I'm sure Sutherland has them focused on the Buna Cougars and only that. But me, just your casual, easily entertained sports fan, have no need to focus on only this week's EC game. It has no bearing on me, nor my Alma mater. Lol

I agree. We're better than last year. It took a game or two for it all to click, but it's clicking now. Our defense needs to stop letting their guard down and giving up those late points after a hefty lead is there, but none the less.....we're ready to play, and ready to win, over anyone we face.

Hey, you may be right. Wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong and won't be the last lol I just saw a whole different level of dominance and execution from last year's team. I saw alot of plays where they seemed very undisciplined. But maybe that was just against Woodville, I'm not sure. I hope they go far. I'd love to see one of these two teams when I travel to Houston in December.

Both teams need to stay focused and prepare for the teams remaining on schedule and take care of business and STAY HEALTHY so this game can live up to the expectations that everyone has been waiting for. So let's lay this to rest for a couple of weeks and then let the smack talking begin when we know that everyone is 100% and ready for the biggest game of the year for both teams.

Based solely on common opponents, (I know, it means nothing come game time but it's all we have to go on for now..) it looks like EC has the slight edge of having the better defense, and Kirbyville has the better offense by about the same margin. I'm going with my Wildcats in a high scoring shootout, by a very close score...something like 49-42.

EC wins this one. Kirbyville's offense is explosive, but defense wins championships. EC won't have trouble scoring and will make enough plays on defense to win

Could very well happen, but EC has not faced an offense anywhere NEAR the caliber of Kirbyvilles. I can assure you Kirbyville won't have any trouble scoring either, and with the exception of getting lazy and allowing some late game trash TD's to several teams after the games were well in hand, Kirbyvilles defense has been just as solid. I think this is going to be a great game and both teams will be fired up and ready to play.

I am not gonna give any predictions on the score of this game but there is one thing that I can tell you. There's no way KV puts 49 points on EC unless they just have a sloppy offensive game with turnovers giving up short fields 

Both teams are solid on both sides of the ball but I think it'll be high scoring instead of low scoring based on two things...1) Kirbyville has an incredibly awesome offense. Much, much, MUCH better than anything EC has faced yet, so what EC has done defensively up to now isn't a good indication of how they'll do against us and 2) Kirbyville's defense has shown signs of weaknesses at times that I have no doubt EC will find and exploit every chance they get. So no matter how many (or few) points either team has scored or given up, I see this game lasting a full 48 mins of nothing but score after score.

EC plays the Woodville Eagles this week.

EC needs to focus on the Woodville Eagles, the whole Woodville Eagles, and nothing but the Woodville Eagles.

      It's a great day in SETX!

      By CardinalBacker · Posted

      The locals have almost finished firing the first ever Speaker of the House from Southeast Texas upon direct order of Trump and his minions.   It's a sad day... Locals have decided that being represented by the most powerful man in the House didn't mean anything.... they'd rather a political novice to represent this part of SETX.  And why is that?  He wasn't MAGA enough for them.  Who cares that it will hurt locally... What Trump says, goes.     Just yesterday I saw Trump on television demanding that we fire Phelan... How he's a RINO, weak on the border, etc... why?  Because he wouldn't overlook the criminal actions done by Ken Paxton, one of Trump's key supporters in the effort to overturn the 2020 Election and allow Trump to remain in office despite the will of the voters.   Trump never even mentioned Covey's name, and I doubt he would recognize Covey if Covey walked up with a cup of coffee.  Who cares that it's bad for SETX?  Not the R voters from SETX!   Then I saw Covey's preacher on a different ad tell a bald face lie.  Why should Phelan be fired?  "He put Democrats in positions of power in the House."  Really?  That's been the position of BOTH parties for as long as anybody can remember.  They ALWAYS give the minority party committee chairmanships.  But in 2022 the Rs decided that the practice should stop.  Democrat voters should not be allowed a voice in the crafting of legislation if there is a single majority Republican seat in the House, according to the Rs.  Representative Government?  Never heard of it, huh? Never did I believe that we'd have an abortion ban, constitutional carry, huge cuts for school property taxes, and Texas law enforcement being greenlit to enforce immigration law.  But it all happened while Phelan was speaker.  Without a doubt, the most conservative Speaker, ever.  But still a dirty RINO for not being MAGA enough.  It would be funny if it weren't true.   I've been following politics long enough to remember when Rs couldn't get elected in Texas... I'm confident that we're headed back that direction.  I mean, it's obvious that with population shifts we'll be turning blue eventually.  I think that the behavior of the leadership of the Republican Party is going to cause that shift sooner than expected.  I won't be surprised to see Democrat Senators and possibly even a governor elected within 12 years.  Maybe less.  The Rs will be a party apparatus without a voting base behind them.
