I honestly can't get a good read on this game, but we need to win and look good doing it.

That's very encouraging.

I can see us being 3rd or even 4th with a much better team come playoff time and maybe winning a playoff game. It would be unreasonable at this point to expect more than that.

Agreed. Silsbee's a juggernaut right now, so it's gonna be hard to take them down.

We love the guy. He wasn't gonna fix the offense overnight. My concern is that the defense hasn't been as good as we need it to be to beat good teams. I think we'll get better as the season progresses.

The past really doesn't matter in situations like this. We've got to be a lot better than we have been lately to win this game.

I agree with you. Those two programs are way down...

That dude's funny. Gotta come out of the locker room ready to play. Can't give Liberty any reason to think they can beat us.

I've never met Coach Danaher, but I've also never heard anything remotely bad about him. Praying for him and those that will struggle through this by his side.

Yep. They had to do something. NU is one of the worst defenses in the country. I don't know that it will matter much, but they just need to be aggressive and run to the ball. Chinander had improved that defense every year, so it's not like he forgot how to coach. The effort just hasn't been there on the field.

The other plus is that they have plenty of money to get a proven winner. I'd like to see Mickey Joseph win a bunch of games and earn the job. He's a great closer in recruiting and a really good coach. Fred Hoiberg might be next if the basketball team starts off slow. I think Alberts is ready to move on from the coaches in the athletic program that are underperforming.

Yep. Another guy that's mouth is writing checks that his *** can't cash.

Most people thought Frost was the best possible hire when NU brought him in, but it just didn't work. Receivers coach Mickey Joseph will take over on an interim basis. It'll be interesting to see which direction AD Trev Albert chooses to go.

I don't think any of us expected to go through pre-district unscathed and honestly, I have no idea what will happen at home against #1 Franklin (3A-D1). We need to do a lot better than we did tonight, even if we lose.

We took it on the chin tonight. Our offense couldn't run the ball and we couldn't stop the run when we had to. Lots of dropped balls, too. Newton deserves credit. They were better than us.

KJAS.com should have it. They usually post a link to the feed on their website right before kickoff.

You're right, especially about this week. Jasper's run defense should be better now that TyAnthony Smith is back, Newton's probably going to have to throw more than they want to in this game. The key in my mind is how our offense matches up with the Eagles' defense. I'll take the Dawgs in a close one, 26-20.

He reminds me a lot of Coach Pickle in the way that he focuses on developing young men. Intangibles are especially important at this level on and off the field and Coach could probably teach a master class to other coaches on the value of that. We've already seen how that translates in games....

Great comeback! Gotta clean some stuff up (penalties especially), but we saw a snowball turn into an all-out avalanche really quickly. It's only the beginning....

Great job by the kid that caught the pass off of the deflection. It's a lot better to be 1-0 than 0-1.

Yeah. We were spoiled with Mr. Lay and a lot of the guys he called games with for so long. He was so polished and guys like Ken Poston and Coach Brack added a lot to those games.

I'm not going to be able to see it. If you go onto the KJAS website, they will have a link to the stream right before the game starts.

It's on their website.

It's okay that we're under the radar. We like it that way...
