This Livingston team will be built for the playoffs.  With the addition of a passing game and a really strong running game, you as a defender are left with a pick your poison type decision.  You will not fully stop the run.  But if you fully commit to stopping the run, you will get burned deep.  Play calling is very good on the offensive end for Livingston. 

Man, this will be the game of the week in my book.  Both of these teams are good.  I'm thinking about getting a ride from BigD or Scooter to this game.  I'll miss a Central game for this one.  Athletes all over the place.  Big guys up front.  Memorial's first real test.  What can you ask for?  Hard to pick a winner!

Ozen is the 2011 version of the regular Central Jaguars.  Just flip flopped.  Instead of the dominant running game and mediocre passing game, Ozen posesses a dominant passing game and a medeocre running game, that is actually becoming very very good, may I add.  they are playing great defense and have great athletes and speed.  I'm very impressed by them and hope to be attending some Ozen Playoff games this year.  Keep riding that wave, Panthers.  Keep surfing!  Hopefully, we'll pull it together and Join you.

I will add this.  Livingston will not be scoring anything in the 20's in points this year in district.  They will be in the 30's or 40's.  Someon will need to outscore them.  Nederland is perfectly capable of doing this under Neumann's scheme, but will they execute?

Who do you got?

Yea, that's it!  Lol

Goodness gracious, this thread have gotten wound up and in so early of the week!.  Vidor, don't dunderestimate this Ozen team.  The X factor is their running game.  They are slowly piling on the yards, which makes the passing attack that much potent.  Ozen will be the most athletic team you've faced.  Yeoj is right.  They have great speed.  But it comes down to trench warfare.  Vidor may have the edge here but the game will come down to key turnovers in the second half.  I see Vidor putting the ball on the ground befor Ozen.  Soooo.. Vidor - 14 Ozen - 28

That's true.  Our O-Line issues began last year but was unnoticed since we had a home run hitter at RB.  He have graduated and now you see the results.

All is good and dandy with Mitchell, and it's good that it's just a bruise.  It's good to hear that we have reliable backups in the wind..  But, what about the MAJOR problem?  How will THAT be fixed to salvage the season?

Very true.  By them passing a little bettwr this year, it makes them hard to stop.

Yea, Kristen was the Backup QB starting the season.  Since then, he's been playinf safety and wide receiver.  #11 (the kid that came in last night for Mitchell) seems to have a strong arm. I'm not really sure how the QB situation will pan out.  I'm also not sure how 'we'll' respond to the QB situation.  I know I saw the air was taken out of our kids sails when they saw Are. Mitchell was done for the game. 

Somebody give me the 'playoffs?' quote from Jim Mora Sr. When he was in Indiapolis.

My comment for this game.... NO COMMENT! If I were to say what I really want to say, I'd ban myself.  Good night, People.  And good game, Lions!

[quote name="FrodoNDN" post="1069851" timestamp="1317415770"] All I can say after watching my Indians play them is to hit Bull, wrap up , and gang tackle him. They did not pass on us at all...didn't have to...so I can't tell you their passing attack. Although the few times they tried, our defensive backs did great coverage, the quarterback will go across the grain running, so who ever has contain, they BETTER stay home. He will get there in a hurry! Again, we shot ourselves in the foot. If they mistake free ball you will have to too or you will probably lose. The Jags could pull it off if they GANG tackle bull. Anyway goodluck tonite! [/quote]Same to you tonight at the Rez.

[quote name="Lionfan" post="1069845" timestamp="1317415282"] Lets just get it on boys, its time. Would love to be 3-1 against Central in 4 years, then ya'll  would have something in common with PNG. LOL  Would love to stay and chat but have to go watch our Lions do some business. Praying for a safe trip for both teams and injury free game. Good luck to both teams [/quote]Same to you, man.  I hope for an injury free game and that you Lion fans enjoy your visit there in Beaumont.

I want to see if our 'Staff' put themselves through just as much practicing after the Ozen loss as our players.

[/quote]How does the defending Kings of 20-4a become what you currently see as an underdog? [/quote] I'm just using the percentage of people that picked Livingston which makes us the underdogs.  Yes we are the reigning 20-4A Champs but at 1-3 and them 4-0, that also makes us the underdogs.  I have no problem with being the underdog cause that means people will be looking past us. [/quote]They played Huntsville, Houston Washington (that's funny), and Jasper for 3 of their wins.  Who have they played?  I'm pretty sure they would have 2 losses if they played West Brook or Memorial.  Now losing to Ozen, I'm at a loss of words for that.  ;D

[quote name="jwadams19" post="1069469" timestamp="1317387729"] Speed alone will not stop the Slot-T Offense that Livingston Runs.  You have to have discipline to counter the misdirection and better than good linebacker play.  Livingston 42 Central 7 [/quote]There's that 'discipline' word again.  So, Was PN-G 'Disciplined' last week?

@ Da Butch!

[quote name="ozens fastest@1906" post="1068849" timestamp="1317308100"] these fearless predictions are a joke.. I will leave it at that.. I mean do you really think Central will be able to keep it close w/ Livingston while Ozen will not out score LCM. [/quote]Since when was Ozen labeled as world beaters?  Am I missing something here?

Ha ha!!  Yall are a funny bunch.  Really?  65 points?  Yall are good but come on.  65 points with a run orientated defense?  What kind of logic is that?  I guess that beating PN-G was y'all super bowl as the Polk News stated Livingston may have played the best team on their schedule.  Man, 7:30 isn't getting here fast enough.
