Eazy Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 Not could be. This is the District championship. No one else in this District will beat these two. Woodville is very good, but I’ll have to go with Newton by 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setx fan Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 Huge game. Eagles will have to battle it out every play for 4 quarters to pull this one off. Special teams could be big in this one also. That's where I think Woodville could have their biggest advantage if we can stop Newton from converting the majority of their 2point conversions.

jds82 Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 Another thought on this game....Woodville must keep Newton's "chunk plays" to a minimum. Newton will have plays where they take it 45-50 yards, but can Woodville minimize those explosive plays and keep the figs down in distance and behind the chains for the majority of the game? Also, Woodville's defensive front must be sound & focused on their specific assignment each play because if not, the Figs will exploit said missed assignments at the drop of a dime. Newton's passing attack is bland at best so I don't see them gaining an advantage in that area, but then again, they can (and will) dump it off to their backs and easily gain 15-20 yards on those simple passing routes. We could also see the Figs attack Woodville for the majority of the night running the ball and attempting to fatigue the defense as most as possible. Newton has no kicking game as far as extra points so WHEN they score, Woodville must keep the 2 point conversion % to a minimum. As far as the penalties committed by Woodville in all three phrases of the game, I'm not about to write a thesis on that because we all know how this team can implode extremely quickly. Their offense is capable of putting up points with the passing/running attack but who knows.....All in all, give me the eagles in a close one - (32 to 28) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jds82 Posted October 7 Report Share Posted October 7 Oh and to add to my perspective on this game, It would be a shame to not include the coaching...How will Woodville's coaching play a factor in the overall outcome? I'll save my opinions until after the game because if the past is a predictor of the future, WE ALL KNOW WHAT THE RESULTS WILL BE so what say ye!

And players must execute and limit turnovers. Gonna have to be able to score quickly on big plays as well as sustain long drives 3 or 4 yards at a time.

hardcore Posted October 9 Report Share Posted October 9 Woodville prevails by 14. The Newton team is no longer of the same caliber as before. When it comes to coaching, I believe Woodville has an advantage over Newton.Woodville 28 Newton 14. NewtonNation and bd04 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one in their right mind will be surprised if the FIGS win, but I don't believe it will be an upset if Woodville wins. I honestly believe penalties and coaching (play calling, clock management etc) will be the deciding factor in this game which gives the advantage toward the FIGS...

Setx fan Posted October 10 Report Share Posted October 10 Loser of this game might possibly face Daingerfield in the 1st round of the playoffs depending on how district 11 plays out. Daingerfield hasn't been that great up to this point this year but that's still not a team you want to face first round if you can help it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
