Vidor 35 HJ 14 Orange Leader write up

Only ugly because of the fumbles on both teams.  Pirates had a long touchdown run called back late in the game because of a totally unnecessary block in the back.  Then, following the penalty, drove to the one with a first and goal.   Matthews elected to have Dohzier take a knee twice to run out the last 50 seconds on the clock rather than run up the score, (ala OU's Bob Stoops).  

HJ's QB Venable and running back Johnson showed some gutsy running, especially in the first half.  HJ's no huddle was largely ineffective, due to all the time it took to get a play called, they might as well have huddled up.

It was  pretty sloppy game from both teams. I've never seen so many fumbles from a combined effort. HJ had some good plays, and if they could have executed their spread attack, it would've been bad news for the Pirates. The Pirates did a good job of imposing their will in the run game, they just kept getting hit in the belly and fumbled. Same for HJ, as I said earlier.

I do have to tip my hat to Vidor though for taking a few knews in the final minute, when they were on the 1yd line, and could've at least made it 41-14 (42 assuming XP is good)

I obviously was not at the game last (live in Tennessee), and I couldn't listen live last night either.  My question is, people are talking about how ugly Vidor played last night, but others are talking about how wet it was.  Do you think there were so many fumbles and it looked ugly due to field conditions or did they just simply not look good last night?  Thanks!

the field was wet and muddy, no rain during the game. they played more of a defensive game then what theyve been playing so far for the first half. hawks were getting to the ball pretty well. vidor fumbled 4 or 5 times. hawks were definatly trying to strip the ball and was able to a few times. vidor made some mistakes and they didnt seem to be able to run the ball to the outside as well as they have been due to the wet conditions.

The field was extremely mushy and I'd have to say i disagree with the ball being wet overall. the balls were switched in every other play. The ball was a little wet however due to when it touches the ground of course before the center snaps it. Vidor didn't play ugly other than a few suprise hits by HJ when Vidor fumbled, HJ just played well.

I was down on the sideline during the game and it wasn't the fact that Pitman was still to hurt to play. It was the fact the HJ did some scouting and found out his ankle wasn't in good shape, and someone and the bottom of the pile decided to give it a little yank in the wrong direction. I'm not saying that these things don't happen all the time in football at the bottom of the pile, but come on someone could get really hurt. I never post on here but just wanted to get the story out about Pitman, he has two weeks to recover and i hope he can because were going to need him against Central!!!!

And Vidor did their share of roughing at the bottom of the piles too. I watched some of their players do it as well and talked to a few HJ players afterwards and saw they had been stepped on a few times. But of course this is always going to happen at some point and time. Overall Vidor showed class and i think it was a good game for HJ to be apart of.

Your are correct, I saw (from behind the endzone) "roughing" from both sides.  I guess you could say "it's part of the game".  I was impressed with HJ.  I think that they will have a great season.

Maybe you should learn to read before you talk. Balls are generally switched in every 2-3 plays during wet conditions.

vidor showed tons of class....greaat game to watch even though we lost....hj played very well ....both teams should be practicing on not fumbling ...hahaha good luck to vidor and hj for the rest of the season!

I agree both teams played real well. They did make a lot of fumbles but who wouldn't in that type of weather. I know by playing football with my son it is hard to hold on to the ball in the rain or wet conditions. I just thank God thaqt no one got hurt seriously. As a mom I will be at all the games cheering on my son. I will be the loudest and most supportive fan in the stands and put it out there for all Vidor fans to show theire suppoort and come to the games.

    • Where were the 8 Omaha teams in D1's preseason top 25 poll... 2. Florida 8. A&M 9. Tennessee 13. N.C.State 14. Virginia 15. North Carolina Kentucky - unranked Florida State - unranked
    • That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.
    • I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.
    • But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling. 
    • Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
