HF at Vidor

[bullets13]

who you got?

Always tough to defend the Slot-T, and Vidor looks much improved this year. Came very close to upsetting Silsbee last week. I'm gonna take HF 38-28.

Gotta go with HF by a couple of TD's!

HF by 17

[Arch for MVP]

Vidor with the upset!

35-31 

Think defense will keep getting better and better as year goes on. Played well last week, and i think they do just enough to keep Broussard and all his weapons from getting into a consistent rhythm.

If it wasn't for a couple of blown coverages (especially in OT) Vidor wins last week. I think they correct those mistakes and beat HF.

DCTF has Hamshire-Fannett as a 14 point favorite.

Vidor's improved this year, but it's worth noting that Silsbee has basically a new everybody in their skill positions on the offensive side of the ball. New QB, new RB1, graduated 3 of their 4 top receivers from last year. And this was game 1 for that new offensive unit. Keeping Broussard out of a rhythm is going to be a tall task. He was as in-rhythm as it gets against a very large, very fast defense last week. I think the bigger deciding factor in this one will be how well HF defends the slot-T. If Vidor can control the clock and keep the ball out of Broussard's hands completely for large chunks of the game they'll greatly increase their chances to win. If the Horns get a whole lot of possessions they're likely to score a whole lot of points.

Let's also factor in weather. Weather channel is calling for PM rain Friday. If it does rain, I'll lean on a team that can run the ball vs a pass heavy team.

I just looked at 3 different sites and didn't see anything forecasted much past 5 o'clock. but yes, rain could help Vidor.

Heard HF small on d line compared to years past, but their secondary is ELITE. Not sure how accurate that statement is but I guess we will see friday. 
Rooting for my pirates for an upset but if we can keep it within 10 points ill be happy. Just want to see improvement from last week!
