Durn, reading those Raider stats is enough to drive a DC to drink.  Good teams can run or pass successfully.  Really good teams can do both, and that’s the Raiders.  Long, time eating drives culminating in a score is a must for the Pirates.  I seriously doubt we can stop their offense, so “keepaway” is a must, plus a few breaks - fumbles or maybe a pick.  Simply put, Vidor will have to outscore them - Don’t see a defensive struggle.

I would only caution the Raider Faithful to look at the opponents against whom they've been racking up the stats. I think they're doing awesome, but Vidor will be the first real test...

The winner of this one should be in the drivers seat for a district championship correct?

yes you are correct.

Vidor has the recipe. Turnovers and penalties will be the story

I know Splendora & Nacogodoches were cripples, but HF is solid & Tatum no slouch.  Don’t try & soft soap the Raiders accomplishments.  You ain’t fooling & old fooler.  Vidor will have to play mistake free football to even have a remote chance.  For example, Ltown could give up 2 turnovers & still have a shot of winning.  If Vidor is minus 2 in turnovers, it’s over - Ltown probably wins easy.  That was their demise in the first 3 games & the key to the 3 wins.

Play mistake free ball again Pirates and you might win this thing.

I will say while we've had a few inopportune interceptions I honestly don't remember a lost fumble although it could have very well happened. Powell as a tendency to throw that occassional interception especially since he has a cannon for an arm and loves to use it. The defense has produced a few fumbles in a couple of games. We won't turn over the ball alot. If we can clean up our penalties we'll be extremely dangerous. Lumberton plays fast going no huddle most of the game and it is working for us.

I agree with this, but each game won by a single score. Also 2 teams I think Vidor could beat too.

But Tatum scored I think 2 tds on our backups.

Considering HF just took down WOS, I wouldn't count on it against them and with Tatum. like RG said two scores were against backups.

I think Vidor or Lumberton could hang with WOS.

Nah 

I know it’s all about the matchups, but Lumberton beat HF who beat WOS. 

Btw, if “Nah” is the best you got for a reply, I should just let this one go…

Not sure how/what the “nah” addresses.  I figure he’s saying Nah, Vidor couldn’t beat them (Tatum & HF), but I’m not sure.

[WOSdrummer99]

Hypothetically Lumberton would get their 1st ever win against us too... smh

Hypothetically is the keyword. I’m by no means saying Lumberton would. Just that they could. A lot goes into a ball game other than stats from past performance. 

[BigEnosBurdette]

Come 10/10:30p tonight, we'll know a lot about both teams.

Keys to success.... win the clock, force a turnover or 2, play assignment football (secondary) and penalties to a minimum.  If Vidor can do that (and they have been trending in that direction) then Vidor wins.

FWIW. Lcm gave WOS a win and vidor handled them.

Exactly my point. His “nah “ reply translates to he’s too lazy to back up his claim or just doesn’t know what he is talking about. Maybe both.

You start off with shouldn’t compare scores but proceed to do that. If that’s the best you got I should just let this one go….
