Welcome to Silsbee Lady Tiger fan club!

Danielle Treadway - Silsbee - Newcomer of the year

polls always amaze me........if the no. 1 plays no. 2......AND no. 1 wins by 1 point(regardless of the sport) the no. 2 team always drops several places???????? Isn't that what is supposed to happen? Texas loses to Ohio St........drops Michigan loses to Ohio St.......drops Texas A&M loses to UCLA......drops (granted they also lost to #9 LSU) but that was two ranked teams in one week.........from #6 to nearly out of the top 20 WOW!

Then quit crying about it and go celebrate! I thought that's what you do when you win, not sit on a computer and cry what if this, and what if that!

I watched all 3 games at Moorehead stadium this weekend. First I'd like to say Condradulations to all 3 teams ( Kirbyville, Silsbee, and Newton) for a great season! Second I'd like to thank each for some exciting games! Third.....well, it's only my opinion, but none of these teams played to their potential....I was fortunate enough to have seen each during the season and they are all three are better teams than what they showed this weekend! I think each of these teams were "the better teams" overall, just not when it counted in the end! Kirbyville blew a 14 point lead late in the 4th quarter, Silsbee blew a 10 point lead late in the 4th quarter, and Newton continued to shoot themselves in the foot the entire 1st half. Kirbyville and Silsbee seemed to go into the "just don't lose" mode! BOTH teams had the momentum and had the outside running game working, and gave it up for the dive to RUN THE CLOCK OUT, rather than continue on their game plan and try to score again, and it cost them both in the end! Newton just could not play pass defense, they seemd to have Marlin in 3rd and 4th and long several times, just to give up a long pass for the 1st down.....to little to late. It was a weekend of heartbreak no doubt, to see 3 teams with their talent end their season in such a dramatic fashion........ALL three teams left EVERYTHING on the field......No room for shame, GREAT job S.E.T I am very proud of each of you!

Same here, except I'm going to stay in Conroe Fri night, and watch Newton Saturday!

NOt just being a homer........I did the research! Silsbee has as good a chance to play in the state final as anyone....here we go! The #1 team in 3A (Gilmer) is in the other side of the bracket, wouldn't meet until the State Championship! The other ranked teams in Division I are as follows 10 - Decatur - Region 1 11 - Abilene Wiley - Region 1 14 - Belleville - Region 3 15 - Hutto - Region 3 17 - Silsbee - Region 3 19 - Royse City - Region 2 Hutto should beat Robinson Palestine & Dibol will be a good game - Palestine picked to win Silsbee should beat Splendora Bellville should beat West Colimbia A lot of talk about Palestine playing in the Reg 3 finals I think it will be Hutto. Silsbee will have a good game against Bellville - ball control and control the turnovers! Silsbee holds on for late win! Silsbee -vs- Hutto for Region 3 final! Silsbee flexes their muscles in this one and wins by decent margin! Region 4 is a very weak region, whoever (Silsbee) wins Region 3 should move into the State Final! Why: SHS has played to the ability of their opponent each week until late in the season.......held onto WOS, beating K'ville impressively (until it didn't really matter) (still need to work on this though) Didn't play down to Jasper in a big rivalary game...... Turnovers are much improved They believe in themselves! This is my OPINION on why Silsbee can and should win DIVISION I REGION 3 and play for the STATE CHAMPIONSHIP!

Fair enough the 3rd place teams have done fairly well at times and very well at times.....but that's with 2 STATE CHAMPIONS! In my opinion there should be only one CHAMPION in each classification! Ideas: 1) Let all 3 teams play in the same playoff system! 2) Create more classifications! 3) Have Div 1 and Div 2 play an extra game to decide on ONE CHAMPION! 4) BCS style playoff system, only the top ???? ranked teams go, based on strength of schedule, playing up helps, playing down against "ranked" teams help...etc.etc. Reasons why it's the way it is: 1) Money for UIL 2) Don't want to hurt anyone's feelings so let more teams go. 3) More and more super districts, so you have to allow 3 because 4 of those combined teams are ligit playoff contenders! I personally would like the ranking system....top 64 teams go. Sure you will have some complaining about who's ranked 55-70 but who cares. Who knows of the lowest ranked team to ever win a state championship in any classification? I'm guessing not lower than 30 for sure, probably not out of the top 10! Just my opinion!

So the fact that they held WOS to 20 points is NOT impressive to you, and until it was all but over held Kville to 12.......what does it take to impress you? Silsbee proved against WOS we CAN play against anyone, We should do well!

Who's the coach of the Silsbee 8th Grade team.......He's da man - Congrats

Rushing Title! That will be decided by who gets the most RUSHING yards at the end of the season. Who would you want on your team? Now that is a totally differnt question. That decision would need multiple variables to decide. 1 - rushing 2 - recieving out of the backfield 3 - Blocking 4 - Attitude 5 - Heart and I'm sure many other things - one thing for sure, I'd bet no one would trade the one they have for another! They are all good backs!

Coach Trout - Definition of Insanity - To continue to do the exact same thing and expect DIFFERENT results!

[Hidden Content] UIL doesn't even have the Silsbee results posted yet.........somebody has to know by now!

them are wildcats them are not wildcats oh yes they are well I'll be them are wildcats cmedbdi's

I heard you got into a wreck this weekend........but I didn't realize it was this serious!

I first will appolagize for some recent comments on my part toward Coach McGallion.......I criticized publicly, I'll appolagize publicly! Second.....GREAT COACHING, we made some MAJOR adjustments from previous weeks, and it showed. Sure there were some calls that could be questioned, but sometimes you go against what everyone is thinking to get the element of surprise........if that pass is caught instead of the INT........he is a genious....and WE WIN....it didn't so move on! If SHS will take this game, and continue to improve (which they will) we will play at least 3 rounds deep. The Tigers got a taste of how sucessful they can be with simple execution and hard work. Remember WOS is a great team (#2 in the State), we had a chance to win that game, so by my calulations......we can play with anybody as well! GO TIGERS!

This is NOT directed at you "Chief".......he knows!

Now I know you've read it and this thread is still here........so it MUST be personal! Can you say "conflict of interest"!

you're right, I didn't mean it that way! I appoligize! Wins are wins.......but it's still disapointing looking at the caliber of wins and one can ONLY wonder what will come of the playoffs (and we WILL make the playoffs) if we can't do any better than that against teams we should be pounding! I'm done here I think I've more than made my point!

fair enough Champion........I wouldn't bash my boss on a public forum either! Buna X2 Shephard X2 Cold Spring X2 (should we really brag about these wins) Kirbyville x2 (fair enough they did do well) Jasper 1-1 and if they wanted to beat us the first time they would have (MOYE in the second half) Palestine - well make all the excuses necessary but if you want to be considered GOOD then you have to be able to beat thse caliber teams. OF - alot closer than should be BC - about what it should have been HF - OMG! WOS - ?????? Yes we are winning and that is GREAT, but we have the athletes to do this anyway........should be making a statement!

I KNOW WHO YOU ARE......

OK.....THEN what happens? Definately not talking about you Champion, I think you know that!

again coaching.........why have a kid play QB in Jr High....Fresh....JV and NOT be the starting QB come varsity (Moss kid)..........this problem starts WAY before the team we're discussing.........it's called building a PROGRAM! and that starts way before they reach varsity.........so why has he ONLY had seven games. it should be more like 6 years. Oh, maybe because we put to much emphaisis on winning at the sub-varsity level rather than prepare for the years that really count. before you say it..........because we haven't ran the veer for 6 years.......well what the.........may as well change coaches every year if we are going to change offenses equally as often........put in a sysytem and teach it front start to finish.......

I stated these same obvious problems before the season even got started. Then it became a family affair, and my post got deleted. With the coaching we have we will NEVER be considered a contender amoung TOP teams. We DO have great athletes, and can play with anyone.........but we will ALWAYS be sucking wind to the better coached teams. GO TIGERS.......maybe our kids can just play with enough heart to pull this one out!
