    Play a game without Cooper, Allison, Aiken and some defensive starters. That's the equivalent of what Crosby had to do that night. We saw Porter get blown out with one player missing one player, please don't think the same thing can happen to New Caney.  

    NC has been missing the freshman corner the last two games. He could have really helped against BH and Porter. But to your point, I agree we would not have won the last two games with those three all out at the same time.

    Hopefully  both teams will be up for this game. Both are already in playoffs and can't help themselves for seeding purposes. I have a feeling backups will get reps in this game to try and stay healthy for next week.

    Agree to a certain extent but neither team wants to go into the playoffs on a two game losing streak.

    Poor Porter.

    Why would you say poor Porter? They have a solid team and are getting to play at home. I would bet they have at least 4,000 fans in attendance and more if New Caney plays on Thursday or Saturday. While I agree they will not be the favorite, I would not expect a blowout either. Coach Holley will have them in the game, I am sure of that. I remember a couple years back when Nederland as the DC played a Holley coached team in the first round, we know how that turned out.

    Why so defensive? It obviously worked the game plan was great and I'm  talking about what I saw as a neutral observer  the New Caney side had many other open seats I've even seen pictures of both crowds where there was many more people on the Porter side. Is this board so cynical that an observation about the game plan that worked great and was very good is viewed as a shot. 

    If you were referring to my post I was not being defensive. You are right in that the Porter crowd seemed a lot louder. From my view I did see some open seats on their side but could not tell from where I was sitting that the NC side had that many. You could be right I just know it seemed crowded around me.  Both teams played hard, no doubt. Hope you enjoyed the game and the atmosphere that was on display last night.

    Observations:

    Does parking just seem so much worse at Texan Drive this year?

    New Caney crowd seemed a bit underwhelming and Porter's looked huge. 

    New Caney's interior lineman keeping Hall from being able to step up in the pocket was huge. 

    Porter had 2 possessions down 13 to 7 and just couldn't quite get over the hump and New Caney made the plays needed to close it out.

    Very intense game with both teams playing well and New Caney showed to be a very complete football team. 

    Porter's defense played well for how much they were on the field seemed to wear down a little bit towards the end, but really got after it after the first two drives.

    I don't know why but I expected New Caney to pass more and test the secondary.

     

    Both sides actually sold out. So not sure where you got that NC was underwhelming. The Porter band plays loud while NC on offense. NC normally does pass more. Looked to me like the coaching plan worked. Run the ball, control the clock, keep the Spartan offense off the field.

    Seems like aporter did a good job on containing Cooper in the run game, 22 carries for 52 yards of which some were obviously pass attempts he pulled down. Looks like it was 13-7 half way through the 4th quarter. My opinion is that whoever's defense has the least lapses wins the game next week. 

    I agree, Crosby has a more balanced offense than Porter. NC basically took Carney out of the game by double teaming him with a linebacker. Crosby's ability to run will keep that from happening. Both defenses will have to play honest as both teams can run and throw. Hope it's as good a game as last year and both teams are healthy afterwards for the playoffs.
