stratford here, not getting a lot of love on this thread, its all good, i think it will be a good game, will come down to big plays and mistakes,  seems like they have some similarities(well coached, discipline fb, good defense)
  i just hope stratford coaches have a game plan where we can put more points on the board then the other team, if that involves pissing on a spark plug then im all for it :)
[/quote]That is true dedication. Nederland is a good place to live and you'll always be welcome. you couldn't get me within 40 ft of that spark plug. I sure would like to see the dynamics though. Anyway lets talk some football. Ned has a good tough defense. Good size on the line-can play the run and good pass rush. Real solid at linebacker. Enough speed in D backfield and good instincts to the ball. Offense is fairly balanced. Lately have run the ball really well and can throw it over the top with good receivers. Real solid O line. Good QB. No monster arm but enough. Passing game hasn't been clicking like earlier in the year but we've played some speed teams lately that flat blanketed receivers. Very disciplined and fundamentally sound team. Don't make many mistakes. What ya'll got?

As long as we stick to what works. RUN THE FOOTBALL! To be honest, I'd run it on 3rd and 5 or 3rd and 6 sometimes, because we got the back and the O-line to do it. Like everybody else said, yes, i would use the TE a little more. But I would use him in goal line plays. He's a big body and he can go up and grab the football. Arguably the best hands on the team.

An opinion from a Pirate, Big Ned's defense will play like they always do which is great. The offense, like someone said earlier, hasn't had to score a lot this year due to a great defense but when they had to score they certainly did. Sure Ned has a lot of weapons and could utilize them more but when the going gets tough, Ned always seems to find a way. Good Luck Bulldogs, Pirates pullin' for you!

andrew luck still playing for stanford, i think still has a shot at the heisman, that would be cool, a stratford alumi, #1 pick in draft and the trophy...no title shot though...
 
  lets see what do we have....a good defense, one beast on the d line, he blows a lot of plays up, solid linebackers, not blazing fast, but have what i call tactical speed, the secondary is  stout, very fast, very athletic.....on offense, decent line, qb has a strong arm, some track guys at wideouts and running back, no big power runners, shs is well coached and plays disipline football,and i could be mistaken but i dont think they will be pissing on any sparkplugs

[/quote]sounds like a good matchup. i guess in these games turnovers, penalties, and o couse execution and coachin will determine the outcome. good luck on an injury free ball game and a safe trip. And Luck will be a good Sunday quarterback. Probably the next superstar at his position.

No pep rally this week folks.

From what I am hearing and seeing of Stratford, they are better than their record indicates...this looks to be a real good matchup...Stratford has a solid, although not overpowering offense and their D looks to be very fundamentally sound.  Real good end plus a couple of top notch safeties...I will go with my Dogs here in a close one, 20-14

GoDogs, that would be hindsight. When people hype their team, they are always better than their record, unless they are undefeated.

True, but I have seen teams and had a hard time figuring out how they won as many as they did, particularly in the playoffs...I recall playing some teams in the past and thinking they wouldn't get out of our district...in this case, I have actually seen Stratford and IMO, they are pretty dang good, although not unbeatable by any stretch...one thing I predict, is a very well played game by both teams...both teams are well coached and play with discipline and are not likely to beat themselves with silly mistakes, etc.

I know one game at a time. But i really dont see any team giving us TOO MUCH trouble besides Lake Travis. We possibly could meet up with Vidor in the quarterfinals. I believe Vidor could make a deep run. They got a stingy defense. Nederland is gonna make some serious noise. Sorry Stratford. Not gonna happen. 8)

There is going to be a Pep Rally. It is tonight at Bulldog Stadium @ 5:30pm
[/quote]This will not be much of a pep rally. Band will not even be playing so they will have to use recorded music. Seems like a little more planning would have gone into this!!!!

    • The locals have almost finished firing the first ever Speaker of the House from Southeast Texas upon direct order of Trump and his minions.   It's a sad day... Locals have decided that being represented by the most powerful man in the House didn't mean anything.... they'd rather a political novice to represent this part of SETX.  And why is that?  He wasn't MAGA enough for them.  Who cares that it will hurt locally... What Trump says, goes.     Just yesterday I saw Trump on television demanding that we fire Phelan... How he's a RINO, weak on the border, etc... why?  Because he wouldn't overlook the criminal actions done by Ken Paxton, one of Trump's key supporters in the effort to overturn the 2020 Election and allow Trump to remain in office despite the will of the voters.   Trump never even mentioned Covey's name, and I doubt he would recognize Covey if Covey walked up with a cup of coffee.  Who cares that it's bad for SETX?  Not the R voters from SETX!   Then I saw Covey's preacher on a different ad tell a bald face lie.  Why should Phelan be fired?  "He put Democrats in positions of power in the House."  Really?  That's been the position of BOTH parties for as long as anybody can remember.  They ALWAYS give the minority party committee chairmanships.  But in 2022 the Rs decided that the practice should stop.  Democrat voters should not be allowed a voice in the crafting of legislation if there is a single majority Republican seat in the House, according to the Rs.  Representative Government?  Never heard of it, huh? Never did I believe that we'd have an abortion ban, constitutional carry, huge cuts for school property taxes, and Texas law enforcement being greenlit to enforce immigration law.  But it all happened while Phelan was speaker.  Without a doubt, the most conservative Speaker, ever.  But still a dirty RINO for not being MAGA enough.  It would be funny if it weren't true.   I've been following politics long enough to remember when Rs couldn't get elected in Texas... I'm confident that we're headed back that direction.  I mean, it's obvious that with population shifts we'll be turning blue eventually.  I think that the behavior of the leadership of the Republican Party is going to cause that shift sooner than expected.  I won't be surprised to see Democrat Senators and possibly even a governor elected within 12 years.  Maybe less.  The Rs will be a party apparatus without a voting base behind them.
