Vidor vs. Livingston Predictions?

[Ned11str8]

I don't think that anyone implied that Vidor was a force to reckon with. They have turned things around somewhat since Jeff Mattews took over as head coach about 7 years ago. He is a good motivator and has them believing in theirselves but they are in a very tough district.

Livingstons running game wins this one. 28 - 10

[Ned11str8]

Even though Vidor has ran for 71 yds less than Livingston and played 2 games to Livingston's  3 games ?

[Guest ndn09]

I think Vidor by 7 points in this battle.

i dont know what you are talking about. in 77-78 vidor went 7-3 in 78-79 went to playoffs. you must have never went to a game

Forgive me for interjecting here as I've been out of the area for 20+ years now and still have family in the area though, but when did Vidor become a force to be reckoned with at Pirate Stadium? This is not a sarcastic comment just really interested in their supposed transformation, because they were just quite honestly a horrible program during my time at home. (75-79)

also that was the time ronnie thompson coached. he never has had a bad program

OK upon further inspection the 0-10 consecutive seasons were more early 70's according to the records posted under the historical section on this website

Which makes sense to me because this would have been the bulk of the time my father took me to football games, and then the years I played in high school. 

1970 4-6

1971 0-10

1972 0-10

1973 0-10

1974 0-9

1975 5-4-1

1976 4-6

1977 6-4

1978 8-3 - (Lost in first round of playoffs)

1979 6-4

1970-1979 (33-66-1) .333 winning percentage

I dont know why I would have thought that, but the records dont lie. They were just a bad team when I was growing up in the area, I never meant this to be a smarta$$ comment, I was just wondering if Vidor had become a better team over the years and from the comments on this thread it lead me to believe they were tough to play at home. Take offense if you want but that was certainly not my intention.

TOUPS GRAPHICS FEARLESS PREDICTION.....

LIVINGSTON AT VIDOR

Look for the Pirates to trap up the Lions. Vidor's offensive running machine will not be stopped in this one. Vidor wins big.

Who is running the ball for vidor this year?

[piratefan]

several different running backs..Pilsbury returns this week from injury.

[raidernation]

I'll take the Pirates in a close one.  It's going to be a ground game slug fest.  I think the Pirates win the turnover battle and take it 28-24.  Good luck!

Thats the only way they will win if Livingston turns the ball over alot.

I know Livingston will have some speed, they always do. I remember a few kids from 3 or 4 years back in JH up there that have some wheels.
