[Hidden Content] Check out the Enterprise blog. I think Cody will really surprise poeple. He has great vision and balance and his game speed will catch you off guard. As for Ben Wells, I don't want to think about how good our defense would have been with him.

If Houston goes, then expect another big ripple affect.

Wow! What a class guy! No need to say much else. He has pretty well spoken for himself. The venom and spitefullness will eventually eat him up like cancer.

The article I think said that a minimum enrollment figure for the conference was 16k. Looks like LU is well on its way. This is really good news for LU and for Beaumont to see stong growth.[/quote] The conference does not have a minimum enrollment figure! If it does, ULM needs to go! They have under 9,000 students. UALR needs to be shown the door as well as Denver and Arkansas State... [/quote] Maybe it was CUSA! I don't remember the conference but I do remember the article. UNLV would probably know.

Texas AP HS Football Poll 5A
NorthoftheBorder replied to 82 5A State Champs's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
I'm a bit surprised that Westlake stayed in the top ten even though they were beat by the No 1 4-A team. -

[quote name="The GOAT" post="835192" timestamp="1283204546"] Titans win 35-7, now one win away from their first ever Beaumont Bowl Championship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D [/quote] You Beaumont guys better hope this don't happen. It will be mighty unbearable on this board for a while. -
[quote name="jordibug15" post="834973" timestamp="1283184367"] What do u think? Will they make it or not? [/quote] How about taking it one game at a time and letting the season play out! That would probably be the best route and I'm sure that is how coach Credeur is approaching it.

I don't remember Lumberton scrimmaging Kibblyville in the recent past. When was that? I think you guys need to worry about playing Jasper who is on your schedule for later this year. -

Vidor vs. BC Predictions?

[quote name="1989NDN" post="833815" timestamp="1283042708"] PN-G needs to tighten up the secondary ... the district race will be a kicking & scratching messy fight ... based on 1-week of games, LC-M and Lumberton will be better, Vidor can apparently move the football, Central will be tough despite the spanking that PAM handed them, Nederland will be in the middle of things fighting and competing, and I think a sleeper might be Ozen because they don't leave the city limits of Beaumont to play a game for 5 or 6 weeks. I have no idea what Livingston brings to the table, but 2 or 3 seasons ago they were taking names and handling out butt whip'ins. Here's to PN-G getting better each week, playing hard, and being in the mix for another district championship. Go Indians. Peace. [/quote] I agree. This could be a wild district race this year. The teams may be more evenly matched than most prognosticators thought. Could be some teams in the playoffs that surprise some folks. Each week could be a wild ride in the District race.

Now that will be awesome if Jimmy Simmons can pull that off. [/quote] [img][Hidden Content]] [/quote] Now that would be what it would look like if you flew over the stadium Green Menace! Pretty cute!

Jasper at Lumberton/LUMBERTON WINS 56-35!!!!!
NorthoftheBorder replied to WOSgrad's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
[quote name="T-daddy" post="833172" timestamp="1283011316"] The last time lumberton beat jasper was 1985 in a pouring rain storm. The score was 7-6. IMO the difference in tonights game was coaching or the lack their of, no disrespect to lumberton (alot of x-bulldogs live in lumberton now) but if you lose to lumberton and we were bigger and faster and more athletic its time for this group of coaches to look for a new career.... [/quote] No I think you just got beat by a better team! -
Jasper at Lumberton/LUMBERTON WINS 56-35!!!!!
NorthoftheBorder replied to WOSgrad's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
[quote name="Jbdfan" post="832967" timestamp="1282974232"] A few things. Lumberton and Jasper both played hard. Jasper is young and that showed. Lumberton is fortunate that Jasper made some "young" mistakes. Jasper is very talented, but needs the coaches to improve there schemes and crispness. I think Jasper could be very good with alterations to this offense that Bickham is set on running. The hit on the kickoff was a penalty and called one. It was not good, but I do not believe it was with ill intent. The coaches do need to address this with these kids. That one especially and I pray that the injured recovers quickly. These things happen even when they shouldn't or didnt have to. Two penalties should have been called on Lumberton touchdowns. Tripping behind the runner none the less on one that was in the broad open and was obvious and in the late part of the game one of the line men had the left arm and jersey of one of Jasper's LB's that was reaching out to make the tackle. That is part of the game as well, but they should get the obvious ones and those were two of them. Fumbles and mistakes hurt Jasper. Lumberton took advantage. Both teams should fair well. Jasper may do better in their district than Lumberton just from seeing them tonight. Speed can hurt Lumberton. Passing can hurt Jasper. Good luck to both. It is just the first game. [/quote] You are a real good Bulldog fan. All you saw was how talented Jasper is, Lumberton has no talent, and all the "gift" plays Lumberton got that enabled them to beat a superior Jasper team. Pretty good analagy for a team that got pasted. -

[/quote] Your karma speaks volumes. He does the predictions, as he has said time and time again, for fun, for the love of high school football and to get kids noticed even if it doesn't mean anything to you. He stepped on your toes picking against L-town and you respond by taking cheap shots any chance you get. He's done more for more kids than you'll ever know and that's not even tied to the Predictions. [/quote] I have no problem with him making predictions but for sure he pats himself on the back about his winning percentage. If you are going to pat yourself on the back, then you will no doubt take a little heat when you miss some predictions. I think he missed badly by picking the Raiders for the cellar. The Jasper game doesn't prove anything other than P4E missed it badly, but we will just have to wait and see as the season develops and how the Raiders fair. I think they will give serious contention for a playoff spot. Oh and I am sure he is an all around good guy who does a lot for the kids. After all, he did go to PNG! -

Lumberton rolls over Jasper and makes P4E look really bad! Keeping picking with your heart against the LTrain! The Raiders like it that way!
