Vidor at Lumberton - this ones for the playoffs


Boneyard Boys

Recommended Posts

Well it has come down to this, winner take all for a playoff spot. I didn’t think either team would be in this situation, for different reasons but here we are. Vidor or Lumberton to represent our lowly district, as a 3 or 4 seed to face a tough Lindale or Kilgore team in the first round. Who ya got? I think the Pirates have the bigger, better athletes but Lumberton just might want it bad enough to pull out the W at home. I just hope we get some decent referees and the players give it their all because this will be the last football game ever played for the seniors on one of these teams.

Teams with a losing record should not make the playoffs. If you only have two teams with winning records in your district, then you only send two. The other district teams just get a bye to the second round. Going to the playoffs with a losing record is like rewarding them for just being in the district. Let's just give them all a  participation trophy. Wish the UIL would go back to just two teams going to the playoffs.

Vidor has a chance to finish 4-4, I think the best Lumberton can do is 3-7 but yes I agree with the general premise of your point.

This is a no brainer.

Silsbee beat Lumberton 56-14 and according to some Vidor fans, Vidor would beat Silsbee.

So..........

Injuries to key players plays a key role of who beat who an when. I for one never said Vidor would beat Silsbee but I do think Vidor was capable of beating Silsbee. I just hope we can get a decent clean game from the refs.

Just saying it would help the Pirates offense a little to combine the both if they do make the Playoffs.

Generally not, otherwise they would have already moved them up. Due to injuries, Lumberton has freshmen starting for over 3 weeks. They will bring JV guys up due to injuries or in playoffs as a reward for playing good on JV.

Vidor has barely enough to form a JV team. If they make the playoffs then maybe some JV players can join the Varsity.

    • What were the issues at Rusk?  SB, Admin, Culture, Pay?  Inquiring minds would like to know.
    • This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up From the article: “As a parent, then as a homeowner, if you have some equity in your home, then you can say to your child, you know, ‘don’t take out the loan,’” she said. “‘I’ll take out some of the equity to help you pay for tuition so that you don’t graduate with extraordinary student loan debt, and so that when you graduate, you can do your dream job.’” Essentially, Harris suggested that parents give their kids a leg up in the world by being the ones to take out a loan instead. Except theirs would have much higher stakes than just needing to be paid back — it could mean losing their home. 🤦‍♂️
    • Good luck and safe travels. Bring it home.
    • It has been frustrating seeing the lack of coverage from virtually EVERY media outlet.  We (Chester) are in the SE Texas coverage area.  There are no radio broadcast from our area, and Ch 12 is the only one that has even mentioned it.   I know I could have gotten donations to cover a SETX Sports broadcast.  Oh well, water under the bridge - we aren’t as big as Silsbee, WO-S or PN-G.
