spidersal Posted October 22, 2024 Report Posted October 22, 2024 BC is much improved and Smalley is one of the top coaches in the area Lumberton is young and back to the friendly Raider days and by the way has the coach that left after the talent was gone have a win at Palestine. NO Quote

NO Expand The previous AD at Palestine made $136,588. Maybe it was better to lose where he'd at least get paid. I don't know what Lumberton pays their AD.. but they aren't burning the world down in football either. Quote

Truth is, with a different head coach, this team is talented enough to be making a title run this year. Instead, I'd assume a second-round loss is in the cards. Quote

SmashMouth Posted October 23, 2024 Report Posted October 23, 2024 Yeah, almost exactly the same. Prior to this year, Lumberton had 5 winning seasons out of 6. The last 2 were 5-0 which I think means they even beat everyone in the district (including L-CM) if my math is right. So yeah, just like L-CM. Quote

Ranked very high in preseason polls and picked by all the experts to win district. They were my preseason pick to win district. Now I have WO-S winning district. Expand Curious to see what WOS does against Silsbee this week. I'm not one who's generally guilty of the "common opponents" game, but HF absolutely dominated Silsbee and Jasper, with those games being complete blowouts until the second string gave up points in each game. WOS was very lucky to escape from jasper with a 39-36 win. HF was up 42-0 after three quarters on jasper one week later, and I don't know that Jasper had more than a couple of 1st downs up to that point. WOS needs to comfortably beat Silsbee this week or HF should be a big favorite going into that final game. Quote
