Newton 44-14

I would love to see this game come back, especially now that Darrell Barbay is coaching over there. Fans need to be able to control themselves though.

Friday is here! Do what you do best Eagles get that win.

Going with Jasper in this one. Looking forward to reading some stats for our game with Liberty next week.

[quote name="Back2swag" post="1252391" timestamp="1346076676"] The Newton Eagles are not favored to win district 10-2a , putting them in a familiar role. The small school underdog,  Newton has never been known to be favored by the golden triangle area well. So this is no surprise to see [b]Newton picked to get second place in District.[/b] Hopefully with the addition of all the big sophomores and The skill postitions players that looked to be primed this year Newton will run there district and bring themselves back to the dirty bird swag era that they had between 96-06. I think the biggest question for all that support Newton will be can they win the big game. Dates could be off a little correct me if im wrong 07 lost to eventual champ Tatum .08 lost to Dangerfield eventual state champ. 09 same thing .lost to Dangerfield eventual state champ. 10 lost Barbay , lost to EC and lost to eventual state finailst Cameron yoe 11 lost to Ec lost to Crockett,  most of these loses were decided by 14 points or less except Cam and Newton gave away the lead in all of those games except Cameron yoe. This team has the talent to go all the way , the question is do they have the HEART. [/quote] I'm ok with us being favored by some to come in 2nd in district. East Chambers beat us last year, even though it was tough to watch they got the W. Also they had a better scrimmage against Silsbee than we did, so their is a few reasons for some to give the nod to E.C.. I understand, we just have to get the district title back in Newton this year and until then E.C. has the right to be favored, even though I don't like it any more than any other Newton fan! Can't argue with the numbers. Go Eagles!

They had to incomplete passes against Buna and one of them was an over thrown ball by the sophmore back up quarterback and the other was a dropped pass by one of the young recievers other than that they threw and caught the ball really well. Not sure what you were seeing. You are in for a rude awakening if you think kville will beat Newton yall are the ones without a passing game you still don't have a quarterback who can throw a good pass over ten yards. [/quote] Just out of curiosity, and with absolutely no disrespect meant to Newton, how did the passing game go in your scrimmage against Buna? I saw in a previous thread that Newton only attempted 8 passes against Silsbee and completed 2. BC is adjusting to a new team without some key players from last year. So far they appear to be a balanced attack between passing and running. The defense is certainly holding their own so far as well. BC knows they will have their hands full with Newtons rushing attack, no doubt. Newton will also have their hands full with BC's balanced attack that will force Newton to respect both the pass and the run. If Newton is one dimensional and does not pass enough to keep BC from stacking the box it may be a smashmouth kind of night. BC must keep turnovers down and finish drives if they want to pick up a win. This has the potential to be a really good one. Looking forward to seeing the backs from Newton that are so highly touted, they will surely be a tough test. Hoping for a BC win    27-21 Rake1 [/quote] Newton does lean more to the rushing attack, but we have the same QB that threw for 1280 yards last year. There is enough of a pass threat to respect it.

Newton absolutly SNEERED at "weak" EC, and all the "weak" teams in our district. Newton was going to stomp this district into a mudhole. [/quote] One reason Newton people did talk was because you continually ran your mouth about our coach Barbay and how he had done EC wrong. You done this with quotes attributed to him that were inaccurate and what he did say was the truth! After beating EC in the first round of the playoffs easily (55-not much) he was asked how he felt about his team and he replied he didn't really know because they hadn't played anyone any good yet. EC wasn't any good that night. Now EC has beaten Newton two years in a row. The first year was a week after Coach Barbay had died. Not much emotional baggage on Newton's sideline that night, huh? EC has had a good program and love the fact they have made it into the playoffs 17 straight years. Good thing. Not great. Newton can trump that streak and add three trips to the state title game during that streak and winning two of those games. One each in 3A and 2A. EC can not come close to matching that. So before you launch off into accusing Newton of running their head and EC taking them to the wood shed, you should look into your own soul and see what drives you. And I'm sincere in calling their program good, but not great. [/quote] I 2nd that.

Going w/ Newton. Bridge City lost to much to graduation.

[quote name="Kvillecatz" post="1251061" timestamp="1345915709"] Jacko n compiny gonna show dem boyz in Newton how 2 play dis game called football . Dem boyz gonna punish dem eagles ;) [/quote] Don't worry, we know how to play football.

[/quote] I wouldn't recommend that site to get accurate records. Most of the records they have for teams are incomplete or totally wrong. Very poor site for accuracy. [/quote] What site would you recommend AAW? Always looking for places to get info.

What site would you recommend for accurate records?

Good stuff. Good luck this year Jasper. We are pulling for y'all!

1. Newton 2. East Chambers 3. May be a 3 way tie ( Woodville, Kirbyville & Anahuac )

Sounds about right counting the controlled and live quarters. Offense and Defense looked good. We will be ready for Bridge City.

Congrats on winning the scrimage EC. Should be a great season again.

I'm going with Newton by 14 based on Bride City losing a lot to graduation and Newton losing a few.

Who does it look like will be under center?

[/quote] From what i saw Newton need to take it one day at a time to heel up from that massacre! [/quote] Don't worry, we will heal up from the massacre.

October 5th can't get here soon enough.

Sounds like we have work to do.

Look forward to the update. Thanks

Good luck to Coach Barbay, I look forward to the chance of Newton and Jasper playing again.

Newton E.C. K-ville Those are my picks.

Heck of a game, Congrats Eagles!
