You know what, I will root for the Dayton kids to win their games and advance in the playoffs. It's not their fault some of their fans say ridiculous things. They are a good team and have earned their spot...even if it is a #2 seed.

If you two have any pull this is what we need to do.  If Dayton gets moved out of this district lets play week 1,2, or 3.  I know for a fact that Dayton would love to play the next 2 years.  Maybe yall can drop cleveland, BC or the other power house that yall played.  It would be great for 2 tradition rich programs to play these next 2 years.  If your going to crow crow all the time not just the one time in 42 years that yall made the playoffs.  So lets play it will be fun.

I don't harp over the fact that Dayton lost to Lumberton. I fully accept that we did. The only thing is your thinking that it would be the exact same game in a round 4 matchup, and we're trying to tell you, it wouldn't, that's all. I'm not saying who would win or who would lose but it would definitely be 5 times tougher for Lumberton in this new scenario. Also, about the loss, time and time again I hear it referred to as a whipping or a stomping. I ask you, since when is a lucky two point conversion to make it 8-7 a whipping. The context is way out of line. I would call it a last minute down to the wire upset.....but definitely 100% not a whipping.

The two point conversion wasn't lucky........it was earned by our players who wanted it more and given away by dayton's who couldn't defend against it. It shouldn't have came down to that anyways....we had already dropped at least two wide open passes that would have been for sure td's when our players had your defenders beat and we had twice as many penalties and turnovers against us in critical situations which killed several of our drives in your territory. In reality, the game could have been a win for the raiders by at least 2 td's.

i dont understand why people keep saying we got the rules changed, first off, you CANT change a UIL rule in one night,  it is a set in rule and they arent gonna think "oh, well lumberton is doing good so we gotta feel bad for them and let them have the easy game" that ish dont happen, stop looking for excuses, WE DIDNT RUN OUT AND CRY TILL THE RULES CHANGED!!!!!

My point is though, you didn't. You didn't score those other 2 touchdowns you "should" have scored. I could say all day that we should have won that game but it won't change the fact that we didn't. 8-7 is an OH MY GOD close game. Both teams gave their all, and Lumberton was just able to slip by with the win. In a round 4 matchup, you'd be facing an entirely different setup. I'm trying to say, it would not be in the least the same game as last time.

Unlikely, but I sure would like to see it happen.  I got to see most of Lumberton v. Dayton & Dayton v. Nederland and all of Nederland v. Lumberton this year.  Both Dayton & Lumberton are vastly improved.  I think it would be a great contest not to mention the Region III D-II sweep.  If it happened, I can't imagine Cardinal Stadium as the venue.  I think it seats around 17,500.

I think it's great to see Lumberton make the playoffs....you have to start a new tradition some how and a trip to the playoffs and maybe a win or 2 can have a lasting impression on the youngsters.

***A 4th round re-match between Dayton - Lumberton would be huge for SE Texas. 

***Dayton looks to be turning it up big time and at the right time..

If its poissible i definately see it happening

Dayton obviously isnt gunna go down without a fight, and if Dayton fights they likely will win but L town has surely impressed me

as the song "The Impossible" states, "if the fury of the wind is unstoppable, i've learned to never underestimate the impossible"

as unlikely as it seems i believe these guys can do anything

There's no "truth" to hurt us...we haven't played ya'll again yet and nobody knows the outcome of that game until after we do play. And if you beat us, so be it...you can finally stop whinning about your loss to us in week 1.

Call me an idiot if you please but I have read every thread about dayton and Lumberton and never once has anyone from Dayton "whined" about the loss they have promised it would not happen again but that is not whining in any context.

I hope we get LaMarque in round 2. I welcome that challenge for our boys. To be the best, you've got to beat the best. You can't go around hoping you're able to dodge all of the great teams. You are going to have to face them eventually. I guess Dayton is upset with the seeding because they must feel that Crosby is a tougher team than the other and they wanted the easy way out so they could advance to round two. All we can do is give it our best and leave it all out there on the field. If they beat the boys, at least they will know that they gave it there all and played the very best that they could. But first, we will concentrate on Smiley and not over look them at all. If we win...then maybe LaMarque.

First of all nobody from Dayton is upset about the seeding because there is no doubt about them beating Crosby. They are upset because they are the best team in the district and are not the #1 seed.

Second Saying they wanted to take the easy route is a bold statement which is obviously not true because they would be requesting Smiley or Lumberton two teams everyone knows Dayton can beat.

Mav..I understand what you are saying about certain posters making it hard for people to root for Dayton. Now I see why they always stay upset about not getting any love from the public and other football fans. If you look in the Saturday papers from the previous weeks they are getting no love. The win against PNG was barely mentioned in last weeks paper..it was on the very last page in small print if it even was. The week before against Big Ned..63-0 was'nt even hardly mentioned if you go back and look. I guess it's just hard to root for these guys and it shows..at least from what I've been observing lately. Just my opinion..they don't have to like it.

The reason they dont get attention is because everyone expects them to win. Lumberton gets attention because for the first time in forty somthing years they have a "decent" team. NOTE: not a great team a decent team

Relish in the fact that Lumberton did beat Dayton this year.

But as far as the #2 seed...

Must be nice to CHANGE THE RULES to get the #1 seed.

Second...

"Crosby doesn't beat yall like raidernation did."

A one point victory in the last few seconds of a game is not a whipping, it is pulling out a last second "home field advantage" win.

Third....

"Second are you hoping that LaMarque will do something that yall couldn't."

If Lumberton does get to the second round along with LaMarque, I wish the Raiders the best of luck.

Fourth....

"See I want to pull for Dayton but its posters like you and Purple that make Other teams root against yall."

I think your words in this post are in harmony of what this district did on the Friday afternoon meeting.

Good luck against Smiley, if things get rough just see if you can have the rules changed.

Back to the topic....

Hopefully all three 22-4A teams will win this Friday.

That is the first step to the rematch.

CAN YOU PLEASE QUIT FREAKIN SAYING THAT WE CHANGED THE RULES, IF LUMBERTON HAD THAT MUCH FREAKIN POWER THAN WE WOULD JUST TAKE IT ALL NOW, STOPPP SAYING THAT UNTIL U KNOW 110% OF THE FACTS NOT "WHAT U FREAKIN HEARD." I MEAN DO YOU SERIOUSLY THINK THAT WE ARE JUST THAT AWESOME TO JUST UP AND CHANGE THE RULES IN OUR FAVOR, YEA WERE PRETTY GOOD BUT WE DONT HAVE THAT KINDA POWER.

JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT WE ALL SHARE A TITLE... GET OVER IT.

Why dont we all come together and cheer each other on.

We are all representing our area. come on guys..

thanks

Obviously thE Dayton boys haven't looked at the logo on the Lumberton helmets very close. If ya'll had you'd notice that the Raider is riding that bronc all the way to a touchdown........lol. GO L-TOWN.....LET IT LOOSE!!!!!

Thats Funny right there!!!! You just keep proving that you know nothing about H.S. Football! If Dayton were the best team in District they would have beat everybody (THEY DIDN'T)  The Raidernation beat yall, png beat Raidernation then yall beat png, Why can't you face the fact that yall are no better or worse than the other two.

Second please save the fact that you (KNOW)  Dayton would beat teams in advance. Dayton us a good team NOT A GREAT TEAM but good and it is sad that some people like you make it hard for the rest of us to pull for them. I wish the team luck against Crosby because unlike what you think Crosby is coming to play. Save your gaurantees for something you know about, because You have proven that you know very little about Football.

    • Lufkin still looking for a Week #3 game, had some offers from 3A teams in LA, don't want those guys. 6A Eagle Pass and El Paso Coronado offered IF we would travel half way to San Angelo to play, too far and neither are contenders.  Both ended up scheduling each other for non-district.   Have been looking around in OK and ARK.    The things is, schools are still hiring new coaches, and actually you can sign up for a game as little a weeks before the season begins. Hopefully the coach is able to find a game worth playing to help the team become better.   Lufkin fans  always travel well, except now they need to learn to travel in a new district. Seems every 2 to 4 years the UIL plays their pawn game, moving Lufkin football around so much we can't form any real district rivalries.  One alignment we go North, the next go South, just a pawn to fill out a 7 or 8 team district for the UIL.   Whatever UIL nut placed us the first time around in 7-5A with Cleburne, Joshua, Burleson and Waxahachie has no concept of time and space in Texas.  To us it's like playing one big non district schedule every year, then we are moved again. The only constant with Lufkin is we do play Longview practically every year, whether in non district or district for the first time in many years these past two seasons.  Longview has pretty much owned our tails the past 5 or 6 years. We don't know much about you guys, we have just left a two year stint in a highly talented district up North 8-5A DI with Longview, Forney, Lancaster, McKinney North, Tyler, North Mesquite and West Mesquite.  It's going to be interesting to see how things play out this year. I'm not making any predictions for Lufkin because the program has missed the playoffs the past three seasons. There are not good vibes here between the fans and the coaching staff because of this lack of winning. After all we missed those playoffs with a P5 RB who went to Notre Dame. Read into that what you want. Will find out in about 3 months.  Anyway, if you know someone looking for a Week #3 game, have them give Coach Todd Quick a call in Lufkin.
    • Why does agreement cause pain? And, how was Trump different concerning facts, or lack thereof?
    • White dues with beards wearing MAGA hats is who the 2A for. Way to be close minded. It’s for everyone.  I know this makes your skin crawl, talking about back in the day, but high school kids with trucks and gun racks in the back window, carried their rifles and/or shotguns to school…ON CAMPUS! No one was afraid. The police weren’t called. Why???! Because we didn’t have a warped left leaning society who screwed with everyone’s mind. There were no mass shootings because there was much more sanity in the world    
    • I don’t think race was the issue. The other coaches and players loved him. Now the community idk 🤷🏽‍♂️. But people have to understand buna doesn’t pay well at all compared to most schools so good coaches get better opportunities. Same thing that happened with the volleyball coach 
    • Fair enough.  I like the distinction.   What about full auto weapons?  Current statues aside, do you think a 14 year old has/should have the constitutional right to purchase and carry a fully automatic weapon?   My point is this.... we can all post memes saying "what point of shall not be infringed confuses you," but at the end of the day, at some point, your ideology is going to conflict with what you're spouting.  You can be all for white dudes with beards and MAGA owning full autos and having the right to carry anywhere, but you really, really don't want 14 year old kids from the other side of town toting them to the mall.  So you're not so much in favor of "no restrictions," just restrictions on others.   And I'm not talking about you, specifically, but rather people who blindly support the 2A all of the way to some really dumb lengths.
