Lol I was just about to say the same thing. Sad that people have nothing better to do than create an account just for that reason. I mean, I’ll take jabs here and there myself, but I also talk football on here too.

[Coach #23]

No argument who's got more talent for sure.  Silsbee.  Also goes for who's got the better coaching...Silsbee.

It's probably a player. Or ex player

[Coach #23]

Sorry I stirred a few up.  And I'm not a angry parent, or player, or ex player.  And not taking jabs.  Just stating the obvious.  Been to both home games and just saying what I saw.  We run 3-4 different plays, maybe a couple more than that.  Sometimes in different formations, but same plays. And every time Mason comes in to the game on offense, he gets the ball. Good teams will pick up on that. And good coaches will scheme against.  I'm all for praising and supporting our kids.  I wish that we would win every game.  But you also have to recognize your weaknesses and address them.  That's not taking jabs, that's talking football.  And applies to all sports.

When you have injuries at the qb and rb position at the same time, that kinda thins out the playbook a little.

Also, some plays may look similar but they could be different blocking schemes, different formations, etc..

In addition to that, one of our home games was Kirbyville. We killed them, why open the playbook up if you don’t need to?

I'm Mason's dad. If you had been to all of the games you would have seen that Mason does not run the ball every time he goes in on offense. He goes in to block and as a decoy which works out well. They think he is getting the ball and he don't.

And I don't appreciate you using Mason's number on you profile or his name in your post.

I'm glad you said it before I could!

Pretty sure this topic is about the Lumberton/Silsbee Village Creek Classic/Battle/Bowl.  Let's talk about the game, the history,and the tradition.  If anyone has accurate data regarding history and results please share.

I know we took some pretty good beat downs in the early 80s.  However, the Raiders took the 84 Classic with a 4th quarter drive that consumed nearly all of the 4th quarter. Pretty sure that was the first Lumberton win in this match up.  Ran 1 play 9 times on "The Drive".

This should be a good one, but like last week, grass field conditions will make for a sloppy game.   Avoid the big play and win the turnover battle and Raiders pull this one out.  Gonna take 28 points to win.

Hope to see a great game that will help both teams get ready to dominate their respective districts over the next 6 weeks.

If it works, why stop running the play? Run it till they stop it. What is the overall record for this series? There should be some sort of trophy handed back and forth if not one.

A waterlogged oar from the bottoms of Village Creek 

[BADSANTA]

Silsbee has 4 game breakers on offense and solid defense. The speed of Silsbee is something Lumberton may not be able to hang with. Silsbee 40 

Lumberton 21

[85LHSTAMU89]

This matchup began in 1978.  The last meeting between these two teams took place in 2013. Silsbee and Lumberton crossed the creek a total of 22 times during that span.  Silsbee currently holds the "OAR" as the 2013 contest was won by the Tigers. Silsbee has dominated this series winning all but 4 of these contests. "With the Good Lord willing and the creek don't rise", we are looking forward to the 23rd meeting in Silsbee on Friday night.

Lumberton will be without their starting QB.

I was told he would have limited snaps. But that may have changed.

He will probably be limited as well, but it may depend on field conditions
