23-aa Football for 2008-09

[Guest tudah08]

FOR ANYBODY TO MAKE A PREDICTION AS TO WHO WILL WIN A REAL FOOTBALL GAME BASED ON 7 ON 7 HAS LOST THEIR MIND.  I CAN PROMISE YOU BARBAY PUTS VERY LITTLE STOCK IN 7 ON 7.  HE JUST WANTS THE KIDS DOING SOMETHING AND NOT SITTING AROUND ON THEIR BUTT.  ANAHAUC WILL BE MUCH IMPROVED - VERY MUCH IMPROVED. 

I AGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT BECAUSE 7 ON 7 IS JUST SOMETHINGS THE BOIES CAN DO TO STAY IN SHAPE. WHEN NOVEMBER GETS HERE WE WILL KNOW WHO HAS BEEN PRACTING AND WHO HASN'T

My predictions are

1.Anahuac

2.Kountze

3.East Chambers

4.Hardin

5.Buna

6.Deweville

7.Warren

Ask Georgetown how well 7 on 7 prepares you for football.  They won the state championship in 7 on 7 last year and that translated to a season in which they did not make the playoffs.  In a division that takes FOUR teams from each disctrict.

Beyond kids writing on here,  everyone in the district has to replace some solid positions in the district

Hardin - marsh and Nolan

kountze - walcot and big 74

Anahuac - QB and DB # 8 and #1

EC -  #1 Thomas

Buna - the offensive line  and some skilled kids

Deweyville - the injury bug got them and know Bickham is the biggest position to be filled

Warren - ?

Yes, we lost Walcott and Chad but we lost Chad in the middle of the season to a knee injury. We have several young men fully able to lead this team to a district championship.  Takes more than 2 or 3 players to make a team.  We have a very good team that want this season to be the best, so that ppl will start taking us serious.  Have a great season guys!!!!

[Bucof2010]

Pick 2 teams that didn't even make the playoffs last year to get first and second in the district?

Thats a real good point. I stay out of all the 7on7 hooplah that some certain teams and fans get sooooo worked up about, and that post just validated my assumptions about the real worth of 7on7. I am not bashing it, I just realize 7 on 7 sucess has a real weak (if any) translation to real football performance. It kinda reminds me of the relation of JV sucess to varsity sucess. 5A and 4A probably matters some, in 2A its all but meaningless as an indicator.

your right when was the last time newton won or played a 7-on-7 game

Totally agree with this post.

[Hotrodg]

Don't get me wrong.  7 on 7 is far from worthless.  Great way for kids to stay in shape and to train still developing muscles etc..

But yeah, using 7 on 7 results to predict football success is like saying a school will win discrict in football because they did well in baseball.

EC has made the playoffs for almost 20 years in a row. Tramain was only here for four of those years. They can make the playoffs without him. The Bucs have a huge offensive line and will be district champions once again. Go Bucs.

[Guest ECBucFan]

Um, it's either 13 or 14. EC has one of the longest streaks in the area. 

[Bucof2010]

With the monster O-Line we'll have for the next two years I don't think it will end soon. I bet those guys average over 250 lbs. And over 6'2''. Not sure what's common for a 2a school but I'd bet its not that big.

[Guest ECBucFan]

Yep, those are some well-fed little tykes on that EC O-line!  ;D

[Guest blade_65]

cant y'all EC fans find anyting else to talk about

in the coming days even weeks you will start to get nervous and wonder if this is the year you lose the district crown

i am all for big offensive lines but buna, anahuac, dewyville, and warren all have big lines

so all these teams should battle for the district title?

Yea a big line is good and all but sometimes size dosent matter. Kountze's backfield avereged more than there line. and they made a good run. There line will be a little smaller but defentily a lot stronger.

How do you know they'll be a lot stronger?

[BrEaK_eM_OfF]

Buna will have a very inexperienced line but do have an upcoming sophomore, a little brother to the DT Dillon moss  that graduated this year, that benches over 350  and squats over 550... i would say 6ft. 1in. 270 lbs. Has potential to be very good.

[BrEaK_eM_OfF]

So i wouldn't count buna out just because we lost our front 5. The program is building and kids will step up and fill shoes. The Buna Cougars will not disappoint!

I still have faith in Buna, and deep down i still think they will make the playoffs

Because I play on it. were a little smaller but defentily stronger

[BrEaK_eM_OfF]
