Pretty much a home game. Im going to pick Lumberton. I hear Stafford has some athletes but they have not been consistent. 49-21 Lum

[dme1111]

Lumberton will win big.

[BBfan061]

Stafford is very inconsistent. Lumberton should win either way but depending on what Stafford team shows up will determine how close it is.

[BADSANTA]

Lumberton by 28

[BattlinBear02]

Lumberton by as much they want

[Guitar Man]

Lumberton by at least 3 TDs.

I wouldn't have picked this game location.  I would have rather it been Provost Umphrey if  each team was choosing a location close to home other than the home stadium for the flip.

Lumberton wins big.

Was Provost Umphrey available?

Whats the cost difference in the two?

Are there other underlying factors?

Lamar is too expensive. Maybe save money and play at larger stadium down the road

I know that and you know that, but our friend @NorthoftheBorder isn't really considering such trivialities...

Why not? It's enough space.

Location is ok easy trip for Lumberton  Should win this one but as playoffs continue they better shore up the defense. Giving up 29 to a weak Palestine team is not going to get it done when they face tougher opponents

I think our biggest problem last night was a case of nerves to start with and their coach started off with a little trickery. We basically gave them their first 14 points not expecting what we got. Once our guys settled in the beat down was on.

Defense is fine and seems to be improving every week. Palestine was pretty good offensively, well coached, and with the exception of the Kilgore game, has put up solid numbers all season.  
Whether it be nerves, missed assignments, bad luck or just a statistical anomaly, special teams play this week was bad and accounted for 16 Palestine points. 
With round 2 being on Friday and basically at home, I have no doubt that extra day will be well used to address that 3rd phase. 
Lumberton defense is complimentary of a very dynamic offense and together are playing well enough to beat any team in the region. Arguably the best and definitely the most entertaining Raider team ever. 

[spidersal]

Yes they are certainly playing well

[Mr. Thornton Melon]

lumberton wins then the reality sets in against CH. Dont let the CH/Livingston score fool you

all those years of not making the playoffs i am sure they have saved up a good nest egg and cost of stadiums should not matter.........

Lamar isnt that impressive anyways. There are plenty of High School stadiums that are nicer.

I wonder if the sidline to sideline guys are still thinking next week will be Stafford vs. CH? I'm pretty confident  it'll be Lumberton and we can take CH just by not falling for their hype. I think we're the better team. Some folks have said Livingston scored against their backups, but the same thing was true in the Lumberton/Livingston game and we held them better than CH.

Ch is explosive on offensive. There defense imo is the weaker side of the ball. I think it will be a shootout

I was thinking about that later on and maybe they were talking about the quarterfinals beinf either Brazosport or El Campo. Have to listen to it again but I still think we can take CH.

Or maybe you all are giving those guys too much credit?
