Nope there's very high hopes for the Cardinals this season...

9 Returning Starters on each side of the ball

2 Great new Offensive and Deffinsive coaches

A whole full year to learn the new systems instead of only a summer

Greaty work ethic from the players in the Off-Season and the Summer Workouts

BC had many Juniors and Sophomores on Varstiy last year because a lack of Seniors and injuries to Junior-Starters, if you don't think BC won't be improved you're mistakened

  I would think winning two or three games only because of the well watered down pre-season schedule is about all that can be expected.

  I have lost a lot of interest in football because of the structure of the game has now changed.  Teams like BC and some others do not teach punch-out blocking anymore.  When linemen are used strictly for shielding runners passing by and also for mostly pass blocking and have never been taught how to blow out a hole in the defense via shear low-centered power blocking--football suffers.

  Having been a lineman way back in history I would think it would be quite boring not to be utilized as the charging front line, busting the big holes for your backfield.

To run the offenses being presently taught is good only if you have very exceptional skilled athletes which happen maybe once a decade at a 3A: that does not recruit at the seventh & eight grade level.

If you play the hard head-on blocking techniques of the 60s to late 80s then you can win at football not having to depend on the capabilities and availabilities of a few D1 prospects.

BC is blessed with a fine man as Coach; however, those techniques will only work at a 5A school consistently; whereby, you live and die by a few superior D1 skill athletes, which are always available via enrollment size each season in 5A.

Nothing's gonna change at least for this season....the kids have already been learning new things to the Spread Offense for the new Season...They've been doing well in the 7 on 7 games and the starting O-Line could be all Seniors this upcoming Season.....As for the Junior High kids running the Spread the 7th Grade got 2nd in District last year and the 8th grade went Undefeated!....I say let's give the spread at least one more Season and see how it turns out

Buna beat Orangefield by like 14 last year if I'm not mistaken...maybe more

and LCM may be rebuilding this year, but they have more talent coming back than Orangefield does..

please enlighten me

I'm more curious about the 3 district games BC is projected to win. I do not think they can count WOS, or Silsbee, so I assume they sweep the other 3 including HF and OF. I thought I read HF had 6 on offense and 7 on defense returning from last year and the score was 60 something to 21 I believe? That is a lot of improvement in one season. I will give them being optimistically speaking 2-8 or 1-9 at best by my account. But no doubt improvement!

Liberty W (should've won last year)

Kountze L

LCM L

Buna W

Kelly L

HJ Tie (HJ on penetrations)

Silsbee L

WOS (we all know the answer-L)

OF L(but close b/c of rivalry)

HF L(closer than last year)

    • What the writer stated wrt crossover votes in the primary/runoff: "Covey and his supporters Paxton and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said Phelan only won because Democrats crossed over to vote in the Republican Primary for him. Paxton said Covey’s campaign identified “at least” 1,442 Democrats who voted early in Jefferson County in the primary runoff. Texas does not have party registration, but a voter’s primary voting history is public. The Covey campaign has not released its methodology behind its claim, but  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up  by The Texan news website found that 9% of Republican voters in the March District 21 primary had voted in one of the previous four Democratic primaries. However, only 5% of that group had voted in all four previous Democratic primaries. What Phelan’s opponents did not mention is historically Democratic Jefferson County is undergoing a political transition towards the Republican party — the county judge switched his affiliation to the GOP in 2017 — so many residents have a mixed primary voting history. And Phelan’s allies in the House dismissed the idea that liberals swung the election. "I knocked on doors, hundreds and hundreds of doors, made calls for Dade,” Republican Rep. Jeff Leach, R-Plano, said on Mark Davis’ radio program Wednesday. “I did not speak to a single Democrat down here in HD21. Not a single one." "
