Lumberton by 14

No matter who wins this game, these are two teams that have made drastic improvements in their programs. Should be a good one but im leaning towards BC

Some coaches are chess players, some are checkers players, vidor coaches are still trying to figure out tic-tac toe

Mathews wont let it happen., Hes still pulling the strings. The Vidor coaches arent interested in trying to outsmart the opponents coaches, they arent smart enough

How, instead of calling play #4 they call play #2 ? Or is it they call play #3 instead of play #1 ? The offense isnt working and people are still defending it. That mentality is the problem.

Correct a long time ago .. The excuse for using this offense was alwahys, "we are the smallest enrollment in distdict, it helps us compete ". Now they are the largest enrollment in district , so why do they still use it ?

The Slot-T hasnt worked except for when Vidor had the Quirantes. Its not just the Slot-T, its also the mindset it has Vidor stuck in . The mindset where 4-6 is good enough and the kids arent good enough to run something else. Look at Orangefield, Bridge City, Lumberton etc., teams that switched from running offenses to a more open game plan and it worked out good for them. The Slot-T is a gimmick offense that worked before it became so wide spread, tge defenses have it figured out. Supt. Jay Kilgo got persuaded by Mathews to hire Dubois so the offense would stay the same. Mathews cant let go of the control and is still in charge of the program from my perspective.

Even ex liberty hill coach Kent Walker (now with blanco) has figured out the slot-T has ran its course. He is transitioning slowly into other formations

The point is Kilgore throttled Vidor 66-6 last year and that it wiuld be worse this year. The program is sinking deeper and deeper. A coach with a 117-124 career record was able to tell the superintendant to hire his best friend as his replacement . In order to keep Vidor in the slot-T which averages around 5 wins a year. Low standards

It will never change until it changes but it will never change. Just think what kilgore wouldve scored tonight.
