Nederland (13) @ Silsbee (27) - FINAL

[spidersal]

Doesn’t matter how many they were missing, they did not play good and yes they had to be on the field too long. The penalties are inexcusable, but they just can’t move the ball on offense. 10 appears to be their only offensive weapon. Unless they can keep district opponents to 7 or less, they don’t have much of a chance this season. I just can’t imagine that offense scoring more than 14 in a game

I knowing they are young, however they are not very good. Sorry but that’s the reality this season

I I think the coaches are doing a good job, but it is hard to overcome a ton of penalties and major mistakes on special teams. It certainly is tough when you have very little offense

He does not.  And these were two key starters.  Spidey is like a ship with no rudder, wherever the current takes him he just floats along.

Any stats from the game? Silsbee shut down #10 in the 2nd half. 

I remember about 5 seasons ago, Nederland scored 21 unanswered points in the the 4th to come back and beat Silsbee 38-35. 

Silsbee I think has won the last 4 meetings

BruBaker,

It doesn’t matter if 2 DL were missing

The special teams fumbles, the penalties, the secondary that can’t cover anyone, and an offense that can’t move the ball is the reason they lost

The passing game is about as bad as you can get and I am sure teams will try their best to stop the run and not worry about the throwing game. Other than #10, the Bulldogs have no one that can move the ball

I am not going with the flow, I am going with reality

Spidey---maybe some of those young kids will continue to get better?  All programs have cycles of success and down years.  That's high school sports.  When you have good coaches and a good group of kids, enjoy the ride.  When your team struggles, circle the wagons and encourage them to get better.  Regardless, if those kids put on your school's colors, love them, encourage them, and support them.  On my side of the tracks, if our kids struggle, I hope all Indian fans will love them and encourage them to compete and get better.  Tearing them down on a public forum isn't helpful or supportive.   Take the next two weeks, heal up, get better in practice, and go compete in district.  Good things just might happen.  GO INDIANS!  Peace.

It was on Texan Live.

I watched it this morning and my wife watched it last night.

Yup, It's literally where Tep and Pickle got the highlights from for their scoreboard show last night.

Last night when I scrolled down thru the games on TL there were two icons for the Ned-Silsbee game. The one that looked typical would not work. The other was blank except for the words "off line". I clicked on it and got the game. Another thing, the game started at 7:30, not 7:00, which I didn't know until about 7:15.
