Fort Bend Ridge Point 42 Crosby 14/Final

[Cougar14.2]

Saturday, 5:30pm @ NRG Stadium

This could very well be the second best team in the region. Ridge Point beat PLC on a 74 yards pass to their four star cornerback with :54 left in the game to advance to the area round. Crosby must take out a certified 6A to advance to the 3rd round. Does Crosby get to 12-0?

I think if crosby doesn't have a bad game, they will win this one. Seems like they are hitting on all cylinders right now. They have so many bullets in their gun that it will be a nightmare to prepare for them. These kids have played a ton of games the last couple years. They are also battle tested. I look for them to be playing long after this week is done. I like great football and there may not be a tram like this in the area for a while. Good luck.

tried to tell Crosby fan at the beginning of the year that ridge point wasn't going anywhere.

they are no one year wonder.

This might be a upset game. Hopefully Crosby stays focused and take it one game at a time. Don't let RP catch you slipping.  I got Crosby by 10.

[CougarCal]

No sleeping on anyone at this point.  RP is a tough matchup, but unlike years past (except last year), Crosby expects to win these types of games.  Going to have to limit mistakes, play solid D, and stay balanced on O.  Should be a great second round match up.

Picks against Crosby every game.  Let me guess, relative or friend at Ridgepoint.

or a friend's neighbor or some dude ya meet at the store.   Same song and dance from last year.  Probably really gets under the skin when our kids have success

Winning one playoff game makes them a success?  I'm just checking.

ridge point, Friendswood, Dickinson, deer park.

Only four teams to play undefeated clear creek to within a touchdown this year.

Ridge Point won district and beat a stout Calhoun team. Whoever this Crosby fan was they didn't think that RP would be a region three threat.

Good luck next week.

Region 3 D2 is loaded, from here on out, every game is going to be a tough match up.

[Red Dawn]

Upsets happen, but I see Crosby a minimum of 14 points better than any other D2 Reg3 Team.

[gary-us-bonds]

we already know they aren't 14 points better than a couple of teams in their own district.

[Red Dawn]

Good point.  I'll give that to you.  I do however think we are 14 points better than NC and Dayton when we are healthy and fully loaded, which we are now.  So again, I'll stick to my comment that we are 14 points better than any other Region 3, D2 opponent.

Crosby is 11-0.  What is the record of the team you support ?  Or better yet, are they still playing ?

I believe I stated a month or so ago, that it speaks volumes about the level of our program when we are now criticized by how much we win by.  34-4 in the last three years.  How many of those 34 wins did we not win by enough?

[gary-us-bonds]

You can't claim to be fourteen points better then have someone point out that you didn't win by that much then say that people are complaining about Margin of victory.

I would have never brought it up.

If Crosby loses at some point (no matter when) this board will go crazy and pile on us but I'd rather be 42-8 (7-2 in the playoffs so far) in the Riordan era with a team that expects to challenge for a state title and have the target on our chest, than anyone else.  

 

Crosby lost their top RB #24 (several offers and he carried us through the playoffs last year as a sophomore) in the second series of the Angleton game, while our 2nd best RB #21( a sophomore speedster) was out for Angleton, Barbers Hill, Humble, K Park, Galena Park and he tried to go against Dayton but came out in the first series and was out against Porter. Without our two top backs, we have actually been out of sync all season on offense. We finally started rolling against King in Week 10 of with #21 back and #7 learning the position. But all in all, the only thing that matters is the scoreboard. A win is a win. If a 7 point win doesn't impress someone, that's fine. I'll take a 1 point unimpressive win the rest of the way at this point:

[gary-us-bonds]

stop with the woe is me.

who here said anything about a seven point win not impressing someone.

[Northern Lights]

I said "if" it doesn't impress someone. Whether you're impressed or not, I couldn't care less.

Interesting I read that Crosby is a 5 point favorite for this week.... Who do you think will be your biggest threat Red Dawn ( after last weeks predictions I have to listen to what you have to say.

[Eazy]

This region is weak.  Ridge Point and College Station have the best chance to beat Crosby.
