said the same years ago when I went to watch vidor play Summer Creek in a playoff game...vidor was never going to stop the SC offense, so why ever punt and they should have onside kicked every time...that night anyway, whether SC had 90 yards or 50 yards to travel, the result was going to be the same, a score...why not at least give yourself a chance to get or keep the ball

Or at least decide to never punt on offense. Might as well make it a no punt and onside kick every time type of team if you are never going to stop the other team from scoring. 

Even one punt would be nice. Maybe one in the first and one in the second🤣

And a lot more forced turnovers by the PNG defense against the other team, in one game.  Let's continue there.

I just want three punts in one game from the other team. Let's start there. 

PNG must move athletes around, go both ways if you need to & most importantly GET A DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR WHO WILL MAKE SOME KIND OF ADJUSTMENTS!!!  Otherwise, keeping only stellar athletes on offense will not benefit you over an entire season.  This PNG team has to be able to occasionally stop other offenses from scoring!!!

I'm a major Faircloth fan, even when we lose to Nederland six years in a row. I think he is a very good coach, especially and obviously on the offensive side. I think he is a great offensive mind. I'll be sad when he eventually moves on from PNG. All that being said, the defense has been poor beginning in 2010 (and, honestly, as much as that 2010 defense struggled, it seems downright stellar compared to this year). We've had some good defensive moments, but overall we've been below what we could be. 

I don't know that a black coach would be on any shorter of a hook than a coach of any other skin color.  Sure there would be some who would want to ride him out of town.  But then again, there is a contingent of the greater Orange community that wants to do that to the current head coach despite the fact that in his 10 years as head coach (along with a very instrumental role in the era of his successor), he has led the Mustangs to 2 state championships, to the finals 2 more times and has advanced 4 rounds deep in the playoffs in every season of his tenure except 1. All of that plus raising the football team's winning percentage from .786 to .806 during his tenure (#1 in the state among schools that have played at least 500 games).  Yes, some of those who want him gone occupy this board......deny it as they will.
Some wish to call that "complacency".....not messing with a good thing.  And despite the claims of some, the West Orange-Stark Mustangs' football team is a good thing.
In topics here about other coaches and change, there has been a lot of talk about culture.  When I see a post on here on here that the primary consideration for the next head coach, whenever that change might become necessary, should be skin color, it makes me wonder if the posts I made in those topics about the current culture at WO-S are accurate and if the current football culture in my old home town has changed.....and not for the better.
If after an extensive search (something I do agree with) the best candidate to succeed Cornel Thompson, whenever that may occur, and to maintain or improve the tradition of winning at West Orange-Stark is an African-American, I will gladly welcome it as I expect other Mustang fans and alum will.  In fact, whoever it is will have my full support as that person's success will greatly affect my mood on Friday nights between Labor Day and Christmas.  However, if it appears that successor is put in place merely to satisfy some sense of social justice.......than yeah, I expect many will show their displeasure at the first sign of any misstep by the Mustangs.
After all, the West Orange-Stark Mustang football team is exactly that, a football team.
Much to dismay of plenty, some on this board, some in the superintendent's office, the Mustangs are not a social experiment.

As I said last week.  This game will depend on one thing, & one thing only!!!
The way PNG defense is playing, anything is possible.    We will have to see which PNG Indian Team shows up.
Coaches, especially Defensive Coordinator, must make adjustments, otherwise the only guarantee this game is that the Indians will win!!! (One, or the Other!!!)

So PNG will still make the playoffs if Texas City loses to BH and PNG beats Santa Fe. For what it’s worth, a chance to play one more game is worth cheering for. I can’t imagine we’d be able to hang with whoever we meet in the first round. And at this point I’m not even confident we beat Santa Fe.

We got donkey stomped and they only ran about 4 or 5 plays. Surely someone could have suggested they change something up to stop those 4 or 5 plays. Or how about watch some game film and copy it hay others used to stop them. Nederland held them to 10 points, that would have been a good starting point. 

My suggestion is that you don’t have to have them go both ways.  But my all means please get rid of this crappy defensive 3-4 scheme.  Go to multiple d with base of like 4-4 or if you worried about the spread that much go to a base of 4-2-5.   ALSO BRING BACK LIVE TACKLING DRILLS IN PRACTICE AND SHOTGUN ALLEY

I shouldn’t laugh, but that’s cold

I want “The PNG Golf Carts.” Because golf cart ownership and use at all hours by people of all ages is clearly the true culture of Port Neches and Groves’ communities. I’m not even joking. I would vote eagerly for that name. 

Touchdown Bost!! 53-34 now, 11:57 left

How long has it been since we've had a defense. Frustrating

He and everyone else with legs 

He and everyone else with legs 

I didn't see it on the original lineup but that was on Wednesday. 

LET'S GO INDIANS!

I didn't see it on their site.

TC has a good run defense, but can’t defend the pass. Bost should have a field day picking apart the secondary as long as the weather isn’t too bad. I don’t think TC can score enough points to win this one even against a suspect PNG defense.

Crosby went to the semifinals in ‘14. The ‘13 team lost in the second round to Elgin by like 30. Great offense but that team’s defense was borderline awful. In the bi-district game you’re taking about I want to say Crosby was up 42-14 after Walter scored early in the 4th quarter and was pulled. In ‘14 Crosby had probably had the best defense in the entire region, gave up 19ppg with 10 playoff teams on the schedule. Offense was very average for a Crosby team. Kind of negates your whole post. 
 
To one of your points though, you’re right about Crosby still rebuilding. Have to give credit to the second year coach who is in prime position to win his first undefeated district championship and run off 10 consecutive victories for only the 2nd time in school history. Not to mention he’s winning this year’s district games by an average of 30+
