Week 2 - Woodville Vs Newton

[jds82]

With Woodville coming off a close lose to defending state champion Franklin and Newton’s game against Anahuac being canceled, what’s your take on this highly anticipated matchup? 

[Separation Scientist]

That's a seriously good 3A game.

Haven't heard much about Newton. Other than "nothing to see here". Makes me suspicious. I'd have to lean toward Newton. But Woodville showed us all something last night against a perennial power.

Thats 100% sandbagging. Has to be.

Would feel a lot better about making a pick in this one had Newton and Anahuac gotten to play.  Definitely an interesting matchup

Could be.

Newton will have an advantage In the film room watching Woodville against Franklin. I’m sure Woodville would have loved to have film on Newton against Anahuac, but hey, such is life. I’m hoping for another great game between the two, with each team playing mistake free (as much as possible) football, and no major injuries. It sure will be interesting!! 

[H-STING]

My take and I have no info on Newton, and just some clips on the Woodville/Franklin game. Is Newton playing at home advantage Newton. Newton seems to be able to reload every year, I wouldn’t expect anything different this year. So I’m not buying the nothing to see. Newton will have good film on Woodville advantage Newton. I believe Newton will be able to run the ball against Woodville. I Believe Newton wins this one.

This game is highly anticipated in Woodville. Always gonna be tough to beat Newton in Newton. Especially when you know they want their lick back from last year. Should be a great game. Go eagles! 💛🦅 💛

I would not count WV out. Franklin is a tougher team than Newton and WV almost got the win.

[Smitty91]

Going with Woodville

[jds82]

It’s been quiet on Newton’s end, but no matter what, the game will speak for itself. As we all know, Newton will be Newton. What’s understood does not have to be explained 🤷🏾‍♂️

[BattlinBear02]

This should be a good ballgame

[purpleeagle]

Newton’s weakness will be defense. Very young, small and slow.     
offense lost all but one lineman. New QB, and the starting running back is a freshman.  Nothing to see here. 

PS   We are Newton! 🙈

Go Eagles 😁

Im going Wville, but depends on coaching!!! Not because Im from the ville, but I believe its our time!

[Fast Turtle]

Newton is playing with a new QB, an inexperienced offensive line, and starting a freshman RB. Newton will end up being a very good 3A-D2 team and make noise in the post-season, but I believe there will be many "rookie" mistakes in this first game. Woodville is a really good team. I see this being a close, hard-fought game, and hoping for a Newton win. I believe in the coaching staff and that they'll have this young team ready to play. Win or lose, both these teams will learn and come out a better team.

I have to go with Woodville.

I hear Newton's new QB is pretty good though.

Who knows? This is his first time playing it. He played defensive end last year. 

Maybe someone can help me out here... Was he the backup QB last year, or is this his first time playing QB?

Good size and athleticism. Not sure how good his arm is.

Newton by 8

[Newtonres75-86]

I don’t know a thing about the team this year, but I was looking at the new roster recently, and was surprised to count 66 kids on there. I don’t know if that included JV and all, but they only  had like 25 on the roster last year. Hope that’s a sign of more kids coming out. Hate to bet against my Eagles, but I’m afraid W’ville will take it. I listened to them last week, and was impressed. They hung tough against Franklin.

Thank God It’s Football Friday.🥰
