So if there happens to be a 3 way tie BH-Ned-PNG. Who ends up being 3 and 4? I think nederland is rooting for BH to win

I think nedwrland is trying to make this a respectable last game and Crosby is doing what nederland did in the first half of the year. Poor play in 1st half then become more of a dominating offense in 2nd half

Offense is going to have to score

If that's true then they should have moved the ball into nederland territory

Offense knows they can move the ball. They have costly penalties has kept them from scoring

Good thing is nederland has been a second half team. Bad thing is they can't run

Refs qere determined to not give nederland that ball on those punts

A personal foul during and after the play shouldn't offset. That should have been nederland ball

Not talking about them ranked 7th but if I remember correctly Crosby and BH were suppose to be the 1 2 punch last year's with png and nederland holding up the 3 and 4 spot. Your right about nederland could end up being the 3rd or 4th spot especially if nederland doesn't clean up their game.

If I'm not mistaken the same thing was said last year too

Rationalize that Ned is more battle tested than TC. I've seen every week people say either Ned or PNG will not make playoffs due to TC being THAT good. They may be THAT good but hard to say when all the teams are .500 or below

Yes and nederland also came from behind against a PNG team and also beat a former #1 team in 4A not saying it'll be easy as I'm sure TC is a good team but looking at everyone saying Ned will lose because of sloppy play, while that is a very big possibility, I have to look at who TC has played and wonder are they as good as people say they are. For example just looking at the records without seeing who the teams played Crosby looks like they wouldn't be as good as they are, I know dumb example but just go with it, when you look at who they loss too it doesn't look as bad as it seems. Even if they would have 3 losses the 3rd one would have been against a very good BH team. Hope Ned takes the win but wouldn't be surprised if they lose solely on the sloppy play that I have seen

After doing some research as I have not seen texas city play. TC has played teams with a combined record of 8-19 while nederland has played teams with a combinrs record of 11-15. TC has played 1 team with a .500 record(clear lake) the rest has a losing record. Nederland has played 1 .500 record team(silsbee) 2 winning record teams(WOS and PNG). As far as battle tested ready Nederland has the advantage. This will be TCs toughest opponent to date. Nederland has play sloppy but find ways to win in 2nd half. With that being said if nederland plays like they did against SF and has multiple extending drive penalties they win lose this one. If they clean up there act and don't commit stupid penalties they will come out on top. I'm not sure how good TC is as I stated above I have never watched them play but comparing the two I'd give the edge to Nederland. But this will be a challenge for Nederland. Let's not forget they were counted out last year after the PNG loss and found a way to be BH and Crosby to take the district or in some people eyes co-district

This is a true statement

I'd say it was the first INT that turned the game. After that fumble.png still went down and scored twice. After the first INT nederland didn't look back and defense never gave in
