Week 6: La Porte Bulldogs @ Kingwood Park Panthers, Turner Stadium, Thursday, 10/2, 7 p.m.

[OlDawg]

La Porte makes their first road trip of the season to always tough Turner Stadium to take on the Panthers for a Thursday night matchup of 1-0 District foes. KP took care of the Kempner Cougars in Week 1 of District play, while La Porte downed Friendswood. KP is averaging 32.5 ppg on O, and giving up 26 ppg. They come into the contest with a record of 3-1, with wins over Montgomery, 6A Clear Lake, and Kempner, and a loss against Dayton. La Porte comes into the contest averaging almost 37 ppg, and giving up 29 ppg. They also come into the contest at 3-1, with wins over 6A Deer Park, 6A Kingwood, and Friendswood, and a loss against PN-G.

Who takes this one?

NOTE: I believe the game will be broadcast on Texan Live.

It is.

Give me LP over KP, 35-24.

The way Dayton ran through KP, I expect LP to do the same if not more

DCTF projection: LP +39

Not sure about that spread. But, we’ll see. LP did look more like they were rounding into form again. D was much improved as far as fundamentals, and penalties were down. Special Teams still allowed a TD return though. That’s 2 this year on KO’s. Still need to keep improving.

Laporte 35 - 14

La Porte 49 -13

I’m wondering how soon we’ll see the Frosh call-up (#17, Gonzalez) also on O, opposite Smith as WR? Make the opposing D have to guard two deep threats.

First game Pass D was solid, and that leaping INT he had showed good hands. Don’t know his height. But, he looked over 6’ at least with speed.

All this talented youth coming up & playing varsity already bodes well for the future. I’m thinking more teams are going to have to start moving talent up sooner, or they may go where they can play. I like what LP is doing. If they can play at varsity level and contribute, play ‘em.

Updated prediction from DCTF has LP by 25.

Did K-Park fix their defense in the off week? They had been allowing 40-60 a game but only allowed kempner 3. We'll find out this week when they play somebody with a better offense. LP back in the DCTF poll at #8. Massey says LP 46, KP 19.

Took @Justafan72 advice and sent a box of Krispy Kremes. 😂

KP gets an extra day of rest and practice. But, I think the Dawgs will be ready.

Save your money, this should be a DONUT walk. 47-13

DCTF has La Porte a 25 point favorite.

LP did have some injuries against Friendswood. Not sure of severity. But, two key players were pulled early, and this is a short week.
