TLU_DAWG Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 Tell me the latest on the Cardinals from Bridge City...
ALLABOUTSTATE4BC09 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 Nope there's very high hopes for the Cardinals this season... 9 Returning Starters on each side of the ball 2 Great new Offensive and Deffinsive coaches A whole full year to learn the new systems instead of only a summer Greaty work ethic from the players in the Off-Season and the Summer Workouts BC had many Juniors and Sophomores on Varstiy last year because a lack of Seniors and injuries to Junior-Starters, if you don't think BC won't be improved you're mistakened

Tiger90 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 wow....okay im gonna have to save that one for blackmail at the end of the season im predicting 6-4 I really don't keep up with BC, but what is their schedule and which ones are the wins?
Bobcatfan4life Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 Bridge City Cardinals Aug. 29 @ Liberty Sept. 5 Kountze Sept. 12 Little Cypress-Mauriceville Sept. 19 Buna Sept. 26 @ Beaumont Kelly Oct. 3 OPEN Oct. 10 @ Hardin-Jefferson* Oct. 17 Silsbee* Oct. 24 @ West Orange-Stark* Oct. 31 @ Orangefield* Nov. 7 Hamshire-Fannett*
silly365 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 after looking at schedule i dont see 6 wins anywhere lol maybe put your post up in clubhouse for motavation thoughÂ
TopDawG52 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 maybe buna or Kelly but don't see any other wins on the schedule
Guest Cardinal Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 Kelly is good! We should beat Kountze, and LC-M is supposed to be way down again.
BCcardbacker Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 So no one thinks we will be better? That's depressing! Maybe they will shock everybody. Come on guys, work hard and prove the Cards can compete!
Tiger90 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 I have no doubt the team should be improved over last season, but 6 wins will be tough. Based on the limited info I have I can see a win versus Kountze, Buna, with a wildcard versus HJ.
HouTexan Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 I'd give them a much improved 4-6 based on the schedule. 2009 might get them back to 6-4 or better.
ALLABOUTSTATE4BC09 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 3 Non-District wins 3 District wins
Tiger90 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 So you have them in the playoffs! Nothing wrong with being positive. That would be a tremendous turn around from last season.
Lcm Bear 04 #77 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 Bridge City Cardinals Aug. 29 @ Liberty Win by 14 or more Sept. 5 Kountze lose by 14 or more Sept. 12 Little Cypress-Mauriceville win by 7 to 14 Sept. 19 Buna win by 14 Sept. 26 @ Beaumont Kelly lose by 30 Oct. 3 OPEN Oct. 10 @ Hardin-Jefferson* win by 14 or more Oct. 17 Silsbee* lose by 40 Oct. 24 @ West Orange-Stark*lose by how ever much Dan wants it to be Oct. 31 @ Orangefield*loose by 14 or more Nov. 7 Hamshire-Fannett* lose by 14 0r more I have you at 4 wins
swampdude Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 I don't really care if we "loose" or not. As long as we don't "lose"!
ALLABOUTSTATE4BC09 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Posted June 21, 2008 ha...we're gonna lose to kountze BUT beat Buna by more 14??? and LC-M's gonna get destryoed with that 0-10 jv team last year that barley got a touchdown....and why would we beat HJ by 14 but then lose to Orangefield by 14 or more????
East TX Posted June 22, 2008 Report Posted June 22, 2008  I would think winning two or three games only because of the well watered down pre-season schedule is about all that can be expected.  I have lost a lot of interest in football because of the structure of the game has now changed. Teams like BC and some others do not teach punch-out blocking anymore. When linemen are used strictly for shielding runners passing by and also for mostly pass blocking and have never been taught how to blow out a hole in the defense via shear low-centered power blocking--football suffers.  Having been a lineman way back in history I would think it would be quite boring not to be utilized as the charging front line, busting the big holes for your backfield. To run the offenses being presently taught is good only if you have very exceptional skilled athletes which happen maybe once a decade at a 3A: that does not recruit at the seventh & eight grade level. If you play the hard head-on blocking techniques of the 60s to late 80s then you can win at football not having to depend on the capabilities and availabilities of a few D1 prospects. BC is blessed with a fine man as Coach; however, those techniques will only work at a 5A school consistently; whereby, you live and die by a few superior D1 skill athletes, which are always available via enrollment size each season in 5A.

Nothing's gonna change at least for this season....the kids have already been learning new things to the Spread Offense for the new Season...They've been doing well in the 7 on 7 games and the starting O-Line could be all Seniors this upcoming Season.....As for the Junior High kids running the Spread the 7th Grade got 2nd in District last year and the 8th grade went Undefeated!....I say let's give the spread at least one more Season and see how it turns out
bc34567 Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 I don't understand how you have us losing to ORANGEFIELD but beating LCM and BUNA... ??? Buna beat Orangefield by like 14 last year if I'm not mistaken...maybe more and LCM may be rebuilding this year, but they have more talent coming back than Orangefield does.. please enlighten me
fisherking Posted July 3, 2008 Report Posted July 3, 2008 I'm more curious about the 3 district games BC is projected to win. I do not think they can count WOS, or Silsbee, so I assume they sweep the other 3 including HF and OF. I thought I read HF had 6 on offense and 7 on defense returning from last year and the score was 60 something to 21 I believe? That is a lot of improvement in one season. I will give them being optimistically speaking 2-8 or 1-9 at best by my account. But no doubt improvement! Liberty W (should've won last year) Kountze L LCM L Buna W Kelly L HJ Tie (HJ on penetrations) Silsbee L WOS (we all know the answer-L) OF L(but close b/c of rivalry) HF L(closer than last year)
BrEaK_eM_OfF Posted July 3, 2008 Report Posted July 3, 2008 Buna has some good athletes coming back along with some good newcomers. Wouldnt overlook them.
exbccards76smom Posted July 6, 2008 Report Posted July 6, 2008 Come on guys, can't ya give us a break?? :'( :'( Come on Big Red, Let's go!!
