****Kirbyville @ Newton****

[GATA!]

Newton owns this rivalry, but Kirbyville has been suspect to turn the tables once every blue moon, could next Friday be a blue moon?

A purple moon... Newton by 2 TD

[WildcatBacker]

This should be a good game by all accounts. I'll never pick against my Cats but we lost a lot from last yr, and are going to be facing a VERY tough Eagle team picked by many to make another state run. So if we're gonna pull this out it'll be by pure grit, will and a heck of a want-it attitude. I say Kirbyville by 1, cause that's all that matters. Good luck to both teams. I'll see yall there. 

[Fast Turtle]

Newton by 3 touchdowns or more. Kirbyville won't be able to do too much against Newton's defense this year. The defensive line is going to cause a lot of disruption. Newton was very low in numbers in key positions last season, but that is not the case this year. Being said, i do not see this game being too close and that is not a knock on Kirbyville by any means. I wish success for both teams.

I always back the purple pride, except when they play the Wildcats. Good rivalry game. I think we all know what's up this year....

[NewtonNation]

I got the Eagles! 

[GenerationX]

New by a ton 

[kirbywild]

Cannot wait to see the cats in live action. Go cats

Snooks need to start posting again.

I think if our O can't get it done our D will. Reminds me of the1998 D, fast and hard to block, but more size in this year's team

[kennelsdennis]

Dont underestimate them cats.  It'll be a game of match ups...

[NewtonNation]

I hope he is I don't want any excuses when they shut him down Friday. Don't wanna hear anything about some injury or something keeping him from being 100 percent. I'm fired up for the game better get there early so you get a seat. I have a feeling newton gonna put on a show.

That still wont be enough.  Wouldn't surprise me if this ends up WOS style.

Starters out at halftime pitching a shutout.  Only then do the Cats score.

Going with two missed extra points.  40-7

I was not trying to disrespect kirbyville. But what I have seen from Newton this year they have very good defense. But we will see what happeneds Friday night

Well maybe I was brash about it.  Apologies for the statement but it was not a disparaging comment towards the Kats, more towards the

power and depth of Newton.  If it helps, Ill lay out a few things to supplement my statement.

1) Kats: lost a ton of experience and from what Ive seen there is not much depth. 

    Only four teams in the top 20 have fewer returning starters, and three of them are in Div II.

2) Kats: First Year QB (If I remember right, last years stud graduated) with a new O-Line. 

3) Eagles: 2014 State Title Appearance / 2015 Reg-Semi's with a TON of starter injuries!

    Still went 5-0 District and built an obscene amount of depth resulting in:  16 RETURNING STARTERS!!  7 Offense / 9 Defense 

4) Rivalry Game in Newton

Just a few things and again, not a knock on Kats. 

Just my opinion and I hope it turns out to be a hell of a football game, but Im sticking to the call. 

I love rivalries.  Who doesn't!! 

 

[kirbywild]

We will see this Friday night. I cannot wait till Kirbyville wins this game. Go CATS!!!!

Yes they hv a ton back from last year an they'll make a deep run if not state.. But remember we're talking about 15, 16 an 17 year old kids anything can happen
