Tigers94 Posted December 7, 2018 Report Posted December 7, 2018 Gonna have to Texan Live this, I guess. I know I'm beating a dead horse, but I wish I was 25 minutes away from this game like it should be. Anyways......GO TIGERS!!! Quote
tennisbc Posted December 7, 2018 Report Posted December 7, 2018 Heavy rains and thunderstorms with lightning starting around 6:00pm at kickoff in that area. PLEASE take care driving and wish they would postpone this game as well. Use common sense and think safety for all and both sides. ST413 1 Quote

Silsbee has some sure handed receivers and a pretty accurate QB. That will be the difference. By now, I'm sold on the Silsbee defense, so I trust then to slow the 'Stang offense down and hold them to significant numbers UNDER their average... Expand Being able to pass when it's being successfully set up by the run is one thing. Having to pass to move the chains because your ground game is not working is quite a different deal. I believe you and I discussed this very thing at one point earlier this year. Can this QB be effective enough throwing the ball, when the defense knows he's going to throw the ball? Can he carry his team with his arm when the run game isn't there? I didn't think he looked like he would be able to do that earlier in the year. I have not seen him in a while, he may have improved. But, I think this will be the big difference in this game. Can he move the sticks when he doesn't have the run to support him? We're going to see, here, shortly. I DO think he's going to have to have a big night through the air to win. Is he ready? #1stangfan 1 Quote
tennisbc Posted December 7, 2018 Report Posted December 7, 2018 My question is was it admin or coaches or both that thought, we can still play this game. Most other teams rescheduled or postponed. What makes FRIDAY so special in the minds of these two schools. Quote

BADSANTA Posted December 7, 2018 Report Posted December 7, 2018 Not too smart if the coaches and administrators for both schools to play tonight. The stands will be 1/4 of what they should be. Texan Live will make a nice penny from this game I'm sure. Quote
tennisbc Posted December 7, 2018 Report Posted December 7, 2018 Where are all the people who have insight or know people from coaching staff or school admins. What went into this decision to keep the game on Friday night? Someone in the know have any insights? Perhaps just let their poor choice and bad decision speak for themselves. Quote

Expand I did see one explanation, that said if the game wasnt played by tomorrow that we would mot be able to continue in the playoffs. And scheduling it on saturday left no leeway since rain was forecast then as well. But i have seen many forecast showing rain ending at least by midday tomorrow, most earlier. Quote
ST413 Posted December 7, 2018 Report Posted December 7, 2018 I knonw both schools had to agree, could one have been the main problem to rescheduling? Quote

If it starts raining any harder I may just sit here in room, order a pizza, drink beer and listen to Tim broadcast the game. #1stangfan 1 Quote
