Yes

14-6 Bobcats 46 seconds left in the 1st. Orangefield has to do something about their DL and OL.

Crockett barely beat New Waverly early season though as you said they are getting better. So it will be interesting to see how that plays out. I’d argue with you about them being a problem. But I tried that early in the year on Orangefield beating Hardin so I’ll swallow my pride and say your right. lol

This is correct. My thought is that the third place team from District 12 is better than the 2nd place team from district 11. I really only know anything about Franklin and Troy in district 11 and they havent started district play yet so i may change my mind. Last year Yoakum beat Troy pretty easily in the second round.

Hardin should not struggle with Teague or Crocket which will probably take the forth position in District 9. Second round being Columbus, Yoakum, or Hitchcock who all have pretty good strength on the DL, should be more of a game. But Hardin hasn't really had to show if they have anything else in their play book because what they are doing has been unstoppable by any team they have faced so far. They have my full support once district is over but as of now I still need them to lose to Buna and Kirbyville. LOL

Didn't mean to Hi-Jack the thread. That being said I'm taking Buna by 2 points. Because I like an underdog story LOL.

Yeah Region 3 has been pretty strong the last few years.

I seen DCTF has moved Hardin into the number 10 spot. Keep up the hard work. It should be atleast the second round before they see a DL that can hold up against their OL. Would be nice to see at least one team from the district move to the second round or even further .

I have to eat my words Hardin line is beating Orangefield up. Can’t do anything with them.

FBC by 14. I'd like to see it go the other way but just cant see it.

Hitchcock obviously a little down from last year but still very strong team. I thought Silsbee was gonna be down after they only beat LCM by 10 but then they come back the next week and beat Nederland so Im not sure. But with family on the Silsbee team I will take Silsbee by 1. 28-27 Silsbee

Im Gonna Take Vidor 24-14

EC 36 Buna 12

Yes sir that's what I was getting at, its also what we seemed to do against St.Louis Catholic. St Louis just wasn't as good as BC or that game would've ended very similar. OF needs to put the gas pedal to the floor and not slow up when we are only up by 2. Keep passing and bouncing the run outside. Linemen this year are better at pass protection but slow off the line for running plays so the inside run has been shutdown against a larger DL.

This will be Hardins first real challenge this year. Orangefield goes up by 2 touchdown in the first. Starts trying to run up the middle to run the clock. It doesnt work Hardin gets the ball in good field position ties it up before the half 14-14 before the half. Hardin score early in the third for the go ahead 21-14 Orangefield wakes up and doesn’t look back 42-21 Orangefield. Or since it’s district Orangefield just walks away with it from the get go 35-10

I’m picking Lumberton by 2 touchdowns. But only because I’m still bitter they beat Orangfield in the bayou bowl. 🤣🤷‍♂️

WOS 35-32

EC is looking tough this year for sure. They did play 2 larger schools in pre-district play but neither of those teams have played tough games or are picked to do very well in their district. Liberty barely beat Coldspring and is 1-2 and then you have HJ 2-1 but with wins over Buna and Kelly who are both 0-3 and have given up over 40 points per game average in those three games. Meanwhile Orangefield has played 2 smaller schools Woodville who appears to be down this year but are 2-1 and improving. They also already played two other teams in this district Coldspring and Anahuac and beat them both. The other smaller school New Waverly is 0-3 but Orangefield pulled their starters going in to the 3rd Q. With the third game being a rivalry game with Bridge City who just seemed to outlast Orangefield. We all know how rivalry games go you don't ever know what's going to happen. That being I did see the DCTF moved EC above OF in the rankings. Sorry for the book but give me Orangefield for the district title with EC in second.

42-7 Orangefield This shouldn't be much of a game but should be a take the lead by 3 TDs and rest your starters to prepare for district opener.

37-6 Hardin

Orangefield vs St Louis Catholic @ Westlake (Thursday) Coldspring vs Kelly (Friday)
