You want us to publicly pick against our staff and boys? Umm, not gonna happen. Go find in writing where any of us have said anything other that we are up against it and hope we do well. And anyone not from Tatum that picked us ain't got nothing to do with us. Everybody understood the assignment but you I suppose. We know we are the underdog champ. Run and tell everybody that, song bird.

Is "Tatum_dirtybird" from Tatum? He specifically said: "Tatum by 7". FYI, if you "pick your team to win", that is "picking your team to win". Amazing fan base says something, and then says they didnt say what they said, even though it is written in black and white for everyone to read.

It would make sense for you to pump the breaks on this one. You have and the rest have been wrong about many things lately and as we learn more about this matchup, we can see that no one in their right mind would pick Tatum to win. Lumberton appears to be a legit force in 4AD1. However, given the recent performance of Newton, we can all give pause to jumping to conclusions based on size differential alone.

If you don't think size matters, you're crazy. Newton swung well above their weight class and won. Impressive feat not many can pull off. We are all aware Lumberton should have the upper hand. I suppose we'll go ahead and make the trip to Lufkin and line up and play them anyways if that's OK with you.

LOL. I got to admit I really like us being on the other side of the "Oh well, we might as well not show up" statement. Looking forward to a good game. Probably will listen or watch from home. Trips are going to be few and far between for me unless I happen to wake up with a ton of energy. Go Raiders.

[GATA!]

As a "deep" setx fan and 30 min from Lumberton i have to go with tatum, i know more of them than Lumberton.  Lumberton has always been been the red head step child around here. I absolutely would love to see Lumberton win this game for the setx but Tatum will be a tough out.

 

 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

I'll take the green Eagles.

That statement was to mess with 89falcon lol......we knew what we were getting into when we saw it scheduled and are ok with it....win, lose, or draw.

We graduated 29, got a new staff, and have implemented a new system. Went from one extreme to the other. Couple that with our enrollment of 484 to yalls 1244......and well....scheduling yall seems crazy. After realignment yall needed a game, we needed a game. And from my understanding Keeling and Reyes are buds in the coaching world. Yall haven't played a smashmouth run team and we want to keep getting better before district so It works out. I don't see where either of us could do wrong from this matchup. Good luck to yall.....hope we see a classic that's injury free.

Hate to break it to you, but a vote for your home town do t mean you actually think you will win. Yes, I said Tatum by 7. Again, that is my way of showing my vote. Do I think Tatum CAN win, you betcha. Do I think Tatum WILL win? Who knows. The Eagles will have to play mistake free football and make more stops than Lumberton and it’s possible. I assume you think Lumberton would slap Center around?

She'll change it again after another loss, something like: UILisHORRIBLE2022.

But you've changed it several times on here dating back 12+ years. I know, I remember all of them. 😁 

 

Hope yall are hydrated for Saturday 😉

Actually we play a smash mouth run team yearly in the form of Vidor and their Slot T, so I think our guys will be ready.

Was only talking about "so far" this season. As in we are the first team on the sked to help yall prepare for any smashmouths after. Our QB Watson is quite the option QB. Makes great reads. Should give yalls front 7 a good work out, we hope.
