yes i was at the LCM game and they could have practiced the whole fourth quarter on just passing plays. but no they just kept running the same run plays till the last second. to me that is not preparing your team for a playoff run.

Most teams I have seen with big 3rd/4th quarter leads are playing to get off the field without injuries.  

I have never coached above little league but it seems a lot of playoff bound HS coaches are also trying to keep some aces in their hands.  That seems to be a double edged sword though.  That sweet play with 2 tight ends will always look good in practice.  Then a team tries to run it under stress/fatigue in the playoffs and gets an unexpected response from the defense. 

Would showing it on film, and making that opponent prepare for it be the other side of the coin?

Don’t run it unless you need it if it’s something you want to surprise a team with. You can run it full speed in practice. Worst thing happens is you run it live in the game and it doesn’t work. Then don’t run it anymore. That’s my opinion. Especially a gadget play. Takes away the element of surprise. You can feature a play in a game, but in the next game, change up your formation or shift into it without spoiling the surprise.

You have Vidor’s no offense vs Lumberton’s no defense. However Vidor players are not as soft as the Raider players, so I pick them as a 2 touchdown favorite. That softness is why they are known as the FRIENDLY RAIDERS 

Hey are we the friendly raiders? Seems like you haven’t brought that up enough on every lumberton thread 🙄

Vidor should have a big size advantage up front, I don't think Lumberton will hold up well. If the Pirates can limit the big plays and avoid any disasters on punt return this week, they will win comfortably.

Who ever wins will still have a losing district record.  Which should be embarrassing. But I guess the winner can have playoff shirts made for their fans.

    • You have a choice between two guys in November that neither of us can change or could have changed. You can continue to whine and moan, not vote, vote for biden, I couldn't care less what you do. Those of us that choose to face reality simply deal with it. You just keep your fingers crossed hoping biden will win in November so you can get on here and be the star of the political forum (in your mind) by telling us all I told you so, even though you had as much to do with this situation as any of us. And yes, I can claim he was a good President, because he was, and I and others have made long lists of the reasons why, which you cannot refute. You have a good day wallowing in your perpetual misery.
    • There is undeniable irony and hypocrisy in the fact that Trump has the unwavering support of conservative republicans across the country who've pushed legislation that makes it much more difficult to access her on pornhub.  
    • All sports lose money... period.. Yes football brings more revenue but still loses money with all its costs...  Football does not "fund" other sports..  It is funded by budget.. which is paid by state and local taxes.  I have seen many games this year where less than 200 parents show up to the games. Do you think these schools got rid all other sports cause their football team did not gain enough revenue at football games??... come on..  I would agree football is bigger in Texas.. no doubt... All I'm saying is other sports should not suffer cause of football Offseason... I know coaches think that 10 extra practices in April/May will determine if they are successful in November.. I just don't think its worth destroying another sport to do it.. especially with all the summer to practice...
