I agree. It should definitely be a 3-team race for district but not sure anyone can stop Anahuac’s defense right now, though. They are absolutely smothering teams. I haven’t seen the same out of the other two. 

Smothering teams?

Didn't they just give up a 50 piece a couple of week's ago?

In fact, EC is given up fewer points per game than Anahuac.

Anahuac's win over Woodville is what has me leaning towards them to win. I watched OF against BC and Woodville vs Diboll. I didn't see anyone on OF that is near as good as Woodville's two RB's (26 & 15) 

35-14 Panthers  

 

Plus the fact that Woodville (who lost to Anahuac) handled Orangefield pretty easily in week 1.

I got the Whack by 3 TD's

Strength of schedule. They did give up 50+ to LSA which is by far better than anyone EC has faced and it is not even close. They will face each other next week so it will be interesting to see. I've seen both teams play and I'll say Anahuac by 20+. Kirbyville felt good about their 3-1 record before last week also. They also had not played anyone tough outside of Bridge City. The EC/Anahuac rivalry always makes for a good time.

I wasn't talking about who would win out of Anahuac and EC.

You made the statement that Anahuac defense was smothering offenses. That simply isn't the case. Smothering defense doesn't give up 50+ in a game or 21 per game.

You also said EC defense wasn't as good and I gave you numbers that shows otherwise.

Considering strength of schedule, I agree Anahuac probably has the better defense. LSA is definitely better offensively than any team EC has faced but I'm not sure they're better than Rice overall.

They are not as good, I'll stick by that. Again, strength of schedule.

I'll have to agree with that. I have only seen Rice's stats, I have not seen them actually play.

    • Bye Week beat Beaumont United by double digits so not all is bad 😁
    • He made the comment as a business man he hated overtime. He never said or implied he wanted to do away with it. He has said overtime should not be taxed. That will benefit the refinery workers in our area big time…..as well as nurses. Not only would you not pay taxes and see the benefit immediately on your paycheck, my guess that at the end of the year, you would subtract all the overtime from your total wages, thus lowering your taxable imcome.
    • Well I thought it would be a better matchup for us more so than us versus yall and we got whooped 🤷🏾‍♂️ we'll see, long time before Ball High meets Lufkin though. 
    • Very critical win for Crosby last night. At no point has the current regime given me any reason to think Crosby should be able to pencil in wins but for the sake of discussion I will for FB Kempner who we play two weeks from now and also Porter who we play a couple of weeks after that. That means if Crosby can beat Kingwood Park next week we’ll most likely finish district play 5-2 and in at least 3rd place.    That being, the team could be a lot better if we had a competent offensive coach. Crosby’s offensive philosophy is to give it to Yarbrough and hope he breaks it which is why we lose to team with above average defensive talent. Crosby’s TE Landen Hammer is 6’2” and about 210lbs with crazy ball skills, an absolute mismatch problem and got one target last night. Friendswood realized Crosby had some playmakers on the edges and lots of times gave the receivers a 10 yard cushion. The problem is that Willis doesn’t know that so not once did we just raise up, throw it out to the receiver and give them an opportunity to be an athlete and make a play. So now that we’ve averaged 8 completions per game through our first four contest because 50% of the time Willis chooses to swap out 50% of the offense we look like we “don’t have the receiving talent that we used to.” Yarbrough probably had close to 300 rushing yards last night but I wouldn’t be surprised if he had 35 carries. I like our backup RB but there are several kids who could help Crosby more at that position and Willis chooses not to play them there and feed Yarbrough to the point he couldn’t even finish the game last night. He continues to display an inability to efficiently use his personnel which is why we get blow out by any team with at least equal talent. Maybe something changes but Willis being 6-19 his last two and a half years on the sideline and his inability to shake the Cedar Park model don’t give much hope, which is unfortunate for the kids.
