PAM needs to win this game where 21-5A can send the best rep's forward in the PO's. If WB pulls the upset, Week 10 games will be nailbiters for PAM, DP & WB.

Could have a show over near La Porte land. I know, I know...we're not SETX and we're not really Houston either...People would show up though. That, I could pretty much guarantee! Thx for addressing my question also. Enjoyed the show. Heard Scooter crawfishin'. Not sure yet, huh? lol

21-5A: PO teams are fairly set. Divisions are fairly set. Order isn't. I could easily see all having at least 1 loss after week 10. Thoughts? DP/LP rivalry--pick 'em, but LP has deep threat now and team back. QB has 12 TD passes & 2 running TD's in basically 5 games. Common stats vs. BWB favor LP big time defensively. NS/LP--LP actually matches up better against NS in interior D than PAM. NS pass game not that big of a threat deep. NS will need to try to get the edge. PAM/LP--Fisk can chew LP's secondary up if given time. Like him!!! PAM run game will be a no go. LP has multiple running threats. LP also has a kicker that can change the game, and a QB that can throw. Stacking 9 may be questionable this year. DP/NS--DP has historically played NS tough. PO game went to OT at Abshier I believe.

I didn't think the post game stuff was a big deal. Typically, teams form a line and shake hands immediately. In this case, PAM gathered together first, then walked out to shake hands. It was only about 2-3 minutes. NS fans started booing immediately. I chalk it up to a rivalry game and homecoming for NS. High emotions.

Game went about as expected. Even after mentioning "don't kick long to #2", PAM seemed to want to do it anyway. Oh well. I'm not a coach. I'm sure they know more than me. Interesting that the best rushing play for either team was the broken play/QB scramble. Very entertaining game!

Good job RSS. Figured "The Streak" would end this game, this year. Also mentioned it would be a nailbiter. OT would seem to count.

Do any Bruin fans use Friday Night Rivals and update scores?

BWB won't have to worry too much about 3 or 4 different backs and styles. DP has a very talented RB, but thin after that at the position. BWB needs fan support big-time. BWB needs to stretch the field to have a chance. Quick scores. Use speed to get behind the D. I--personally--haven't seen DP yet this year. But, I'd expect them to win the majority of the time in line play from being at the BWB game last Sat. and knowing DP's tendencies and history. JMO

[b]Spearman made a couple good catches as I recall, but was taken away most of the night.[/b] BWB D was being pushed around pretty good. LP needs to clean up some play. I think they had over 100 yds. in penalties and still over 500 in offense. Starters pulled after 3. Teams may want to rethink stacking 8-9 in the box against LP. [/quote]The problem is, Spearman is the only WR Clack is allowed to throw to. All the other receivers are just used as decoys. It's not hard to figure out who the ball is being thrown to. Hence, it isn't hard to figure out who to double team, thus taking away any real passing threat. It's a shame, really, because there are some othere really good receivers on the team that wont see a pass thrown to them. This just from my own observation. [/quote]That is a shame. Not anything against Spearman--he has talent. Good routes. Good hands. Passes to flats may be more successful against DP, BS, CV. I don't see them working against PAM or NS. I'd try to stretch the field more... I will say last night was the first game LP had their entire D back.

BWB fans need to come out in force to support against DP. Loud and proud. Key game for both.

This will be a good game. It's become somewhat of a rivalry. I'll be there!

I saw something on Twitter saying that in 3 of their 4 games this year...every kid that suited up played....that's crazy considering that the 4 teams they played are probably playoff teams [/quote]You know that will come to an end. Probably not in 19-5A, but PO's. Keep those OL healthy. LP's been without 3-4 all season. Makes a person who doesn't really know the game appreciate what they do... For those of us that know the game, we know it's a killer to any O.

PAM got a wake up call from DP. They'll be focused.

The they got was well flukish, Fisk made the right read and made a good throw to a wide open receiver in the middle  of the field, the only problem is that it bounced off  the back of a Dp defenders helment straight into the air then was intercepted.  What bothers me more is B. Laday dropping balls all over the field. I'm moving Lott up to varsity, and moving Labrie to wideout. Laday is avereging four wide open drops a game!!!!!!!  I love the way we played the first half. We just need to finish!!!!! [/quote]What would bother me more is a running back that PAM knew was going to get the ball gained 10+ yards per carry, gained over 230 yards total and had 3 TD's. PAM has NS & LP on the schedule still. I don't think this is bad on PAM. I think it's an underestimation of DP. They've had little PO success in recent years, but they've been playing 21-5A and NS a lot in the first round.
