Worse than that

[whsalum]

This one is going to get ugly . Matchup nightmare for the Bobcats 

[Tigers94]

OF had a few really good shooters last year. Don't know if any of them are back this year. 

They might can keep it interesting for just a little bit if they get hot from 3 point land.

I don't see Silsbee winning by 30+

I didn’t see Liberty playing within 2 either but they did. 

[Jerry West]

Orangefield is going to be hurt by a weak non-district schedule here.  I feel because of their non-district schedule they have not seen anyone close to Silsbee and this is why I have Silsbee by 25+ unless OF sits on the ball.  Don't think they have the guard play to sit on it for 32 minutes with the amount of pressure Silsbee is going to bring.  

[AggiesAreWe]

Last year Silsbee beat Orangefield by 22 at Orangefield and 14 points at Silsbee.

I see an 18-22 point win for Silsbee.

Silsbee is #2 in the state for a reason, but i think it shows terrible basketball knowledge to use the liberty game as a barometer. According to maxpreps Orangefield had beaten Liberty by 50 & 30 in the other matchups.

Silsbee wins this game big.! I" personally see Silsbee putting up triple digits. This game won't be close.🙄😁🐅🏀

[catfever]

Keys to OF even having any sort of shot at keeping it close are controlling the tempo, shooting the ball well, not giving up a lot of offensive boards, and limiting turnovers as much as possible.  Turnovers are going to happen, but they can't lead to fast break points.  Silsbee comes in waves and you have to be able to withstand the waves.  That is easier said that done though.

Never said my basketball knowledge was above the terrible level. On their worst day Orangefield should be 20 points better than Liberty. All that said my observation is strictly based on matchups. Silsbee’s pressure defense is going to be a problem. If the Bobcats can break the press and hit the 3 then they could keep it under 20. That’s a tall order. 

[The Observer]

Silsbee press will get them up early and fast - up by 20

Silsbee will fall back OF hit a few 3s so half time Silsbee by 14

Silsbee come back out with press and finish off OF. by 32 staying under 3 digits final 

[Cardinal 1]

OF will attempt to slow the ball down as much as possible. They aren't bad against the press and can hit from outside. Silsbee by 15

[BADSANTA]

There isn't a team on OF schedule who could play within 20 of Silsbee and their 12-5. 

[TxHoops]

Silsbee will win.  I have no clue by how much.   Except that I learned long ago to defer to AAW on HS lines.  So my guess is around 20.

You will be amazed at how many local coaches message me about those lines.

I surprise myself sometimes.

Actually it doesn’t surprise me if they pay attention here.  I’ve told many people you are the Jimmy the Greek of SETX hs sports.

I have seen about half the schools in this district play. Silsbee is head and shoulders better than the rest. They could get better if they could get one of their big people healthy but that might not be this year. I really think Orangefield has a lot of skills. They are short on depth and speed which kills them against someone like Silsbee. Lumberton needs their big guy who hurt his shoulder. They are athletic but may not have the shooting skills of Orangefield. I have seen WOS but not seen them play. They appear to be missing some players from last year. Maybe they are just slow getting out from football. I haven't seen Vidor or LCM at all. i did watch BC a little earlier. It should be an interesting battle for second third and fourth for playoff positions.
