Will the video replay be available online at any point?

This one is over, good game by the pirates. Hard to win when you fumble so much and lose onside kicks. I prefer them getting hit in the mouth and being humbled this week vs having it done in the playoffs.

Exactly -- a loss is good prep for the playoffs. 

wow. I think we can all agree that Vidor deserves serious respect. I don't think anyone expected this outcome. Way to go Vidor. No disrespect to Memorial. Still an excellent team. 

did vidor recover?

how much time left?

Austin Bost and Roschon Johnson are coming up huge

I was thinking maybe they wanna press reset in this game and start over...  Like the old Nintendo when you die on the first gumba on the first level...

ah , you may be right. I understand that -- I always die on the first gumba

I'm just joking about the ref stuff lol but I do believe it was a touchdown.

That's the tough part. It may have been. (I am not at the game, just following online). Refs don't get everything right. You can still count on Hines' legs, unless the score gets in his head. That's the problem PNG has. It kills me.

What you mean reset??

I think he means chill out. I'm noticing that when people start talking about games being rigged the admins step in. Fine with me. If Memorial loses they have no one to blame but themselves. 

Not what I expected

Wow. Good work.

How is Vidor doing? Moving the ball? 

Is this where the updates are supposed to be? Let's have some updates!

JV scores do show where the talent is, but it doesn't always translate to the varsity level. When I was in high school, PNG's freshman and JV teams would always dominate, but that didn't mean we dominated in varsity. That being said, I'm not arguing that doing well at the JV level absolutely does not mean you won't do well on varsity, only that it is not a guarantee. As we all know, different variables come into play for JV and Varsity. One good example, I remember soundly defeated WO-S my freshman year, then again at JV, but we lost at the varsity level the following year.

Yeah. They were trash 

Who is "they"? 

How is PAM's line play (offense and defense)? If RJ is forced into mistakes and pressure situations, I could see a few interceptions making a difference in PAM's favor. I think defensively PNG will be up to the task, at least in the fact that the Indians tackle better than any team the Titans have played so far. Which isn't to say that Memorial hasn't played anyone, just that PNG has some really decent, hard-hitting guys who wrap up. PNG will really need the offensive line to protect and open up some holes to extend drives. It seems to me that PAM makes a lot of mistakes. That could be key. 

Playoffs start next week for PNG-- PAM will show us our weaknesses. Go Indians.

It was blocked. 

Goodness gracious. Seems like we have had several blocked extra points this year. 

Listening to the game: What happened with the PNG extra point? Blocked, or did we go for two? You have to be kidding me, either way. 

Sorry for Laday and the rest of the Bulldogs. They don't deserve this. Their coach screwed up, not them. Wish Laday could go play back in Memorial. The way I see it, a kid has an address somewhere. If he isn't eligible at Nederland, let him play in Port Arthur.

Versus 0 passing TDs it is.

Ok I give you that.

Not to mention our newly aquired passing attack as well and I'm willing to bet our qb runs more than yours so lets not compare rushing qb's.

Two passing touchdowns in a season is not a "newly acquired passing attack". 

The thing that scares me about Nederland (and PAM better watch out for it) is that Neumann might be the best in the area for using tough losses to strengthen his team. Vidor won the game on Friday, but it in some ways it is a "victory" (using the word lightly) for Nederland because they have had to scratch it out in a very, very tough loss. They will face PAM as a more mature, tough, battle-tested team than last week, and that will show throughout the rest of the season. I don't think Nederland beats Memorial, but expect an evolved Nederland team to use the Vidor loss in an incredible way to be better down the stretch. Nederland is like a monster that gets stronger the more you hit it. I almost wish Nederland had had an easy victory over Vidor, or had been blown out by Vidor, because this close fight gives them experience that will pay dividends down the road, at least through the regular season. 

Slightly off-topic, but not really: Can someone please teach Harold Mann how to pronounce "Quirante"? While we're at it, "Celaya", not "Celalya". 

Our DB height is a serious problem that faster, bigger schools will eat up. It was clear in the scrimmage against West Orange.
