SILSBEE at ORANGEFIELD BROADCAST/Orangefield wins 16-14!

Questionable calls are gonna happen. If you're the better team, you find a way to scrap out a win. Silsbee still had chances to do that and they didn't. Maybe if it was the last play of the game and the refs called a TD incomplete when is was a catch, I could see being upset.

Really, though, blaming the refs ain't gonna get you anywhere.

Good news is they've still got time to prove they're a good team, so lets do it.

Otherwise I don't guess we'll have to worry about Silsbee Lite losing by 50 points to 6A basketball teams early in the season this year.

I’m just saying 48 against Vidor 34 against a good Nederland team 30 against pleasant grove and Silsbee scored in the first 25 seconds of this game I was for sure Silsbee was going to spread Orangefield out the whole game and lite them up with the 4 receivers set the 4th qtr against Nederland was a major collapse now tonight a loss that should not have happened just my opinion.

Alright, let me provide some context and try to put this “ref” debate to rest…

Silsbee had 14 penalties for 125 yards called on them… crazy!

of those 14 penalties, 6 were either false start or offside. Both of those are pretty obvious penalties so you can’t really argue against those.

So that leaves 8 penalties of which 4 were holding. I know for sure we called one, if not two, or those holding calls on the broadcast before the flag was even thrown. We both saw it.

So that leaves us with 4 penalties in question. One of those was a pass interference on silsbee. Defender didn’t try to make a play on the ball. Receiver for O-field came back to make a play on the ball and the silsbee defender ran into him. That’s gonna get called every time. Another was a personal fouls for a horse collar. Again, very obvious call.

So 2 penalties left… there was a block in the back. This was one of those times when the receiver catches he ball and cuts across the field. Another silsbee receiver was going to make a block but because the ball carrier was changing directions it made the defender turn his back at the last second, causing a block in the back. I remember this play very clearly. Jackson made a good move and had a great gain; but the penalty was valid.

That leaves 1 penalty which was sideline warning. I guess that can be argued either way. But I can see why they called it.

 

That’s my two cents

With Dodd and Martin going out with injuries, Silsbee had to move Miller to the backfield. Silsbee missed some good opportunities to seal the game on a few dropped passes. It happens!! The passion g game was solid and rhe run game in the 2nd half wasn't either. Stack that up with penalties, you will lose most of the time. OF has a pretty good defense so take nothing away from them. Id take 3rd in district 😂😂😂😂. The rest can go battle Carthage early.

    • That was an awesome video!  I feel so proud of these young men.  They proved the doubters wrong.  Bellville should be proud, too.  I know it didn't end like they had hoped, but we've been there, so we can definitely empathize with them.  Great season, Brahmas!
    • Meh.. Everyone knows this. The kid that got injured wasn't lifting weights. Supposedly he was hit with a helmet in his elbow. In my opinion the kid shouldn't have been put in that situation. AD should've told the Varsity baseball players to sit that one out. I have no issues with the lifting or conditioning. However, anytime helmets/pads are on there is a higher risk of injury. This AD showed a total lack of respect for HIS baseball program. 
    • Maybe.. however..  Many athletic director / head football coach have lost their job despite the athletic program as a whole being successful.. if the football team struggles.  On the other hand, when football teams are doing great but the rest of the program stinks.. AD/HFC still keeps their job. WOS.  Newton. .. programs as a whole were fairly weak during those many years of football power and very few people even knew it.  Or cared. Yet, AD/HFC kept their jobs for years. Meanwhile, I remember an AD/HFC at Barbers Hill lost his job after every program in the school won district championships and even had several team sports (baseball, softball, girls hoops, etc.) making runs at state.  But the football team was mediocre.  Fired. I'm not saying you're wrong, just that perception is reality.  And the perception is that your athletic program can suck as long as football wins.. it doesn't matter how strong the athletic program is if football sucks.
