The mere fact that Newton lost to Diboll speaks volumes. Really not sure if they have ever lost to them, or at least since WWII.  They should be able to slide into the playoffs behind Kirbville though.

OK so for every1 i was on the field and it was horrible.. and for the onside kick i was right up front.. he touch the ball b4 it crossed the 10 yrd mark..it was a slow roller n it never crossed until he touched it.... all diboll could do to our D is try and cut them and hold their feet.. our ends couldnt move cuz of all the holdin.. its sad 2 have more yard in penalties then diboll had in total yards.. now i give it to the Qb he is all they really have.. we couldnt keep him from the sidelines... but cum on down to newton n we get officals tht are good at wat they do and not sum retards tht need to be turned into the uil and well beat them 35-10 easily..

You've got to be kidding, Newton had around 100 yards in penalties, while Diboll had around 300+ yards in total offense.  I don't know what stats you're looking at.  It's not like Newton had 30 penalties.  Diboll went to kville and lost to a good team, and had about 20 penalties, and lost by 8.  No excuses from Diboll either, they accepted the loss and moved on.

I don't know if anyone remembers, but there was this one play where Diboll's running back broke away from everyone for a pretty good run and Newton's #8 Mattox hawked him down. I haven't saw the roster but Mattox is pretty big boy, i'm guessing at least 230. Not taking anything away from Diboll's run cause it was good, but it stood out in my mind for a good sized D lineman out ran the running back.

For what it is worth.....

I saw a Newton team play terrible and a Diboll team that was undersized and slow. I cant recall seeing such indecisiveness and confusion on the refs part.

Both Diboll and Newton will have to play much better than what I observed to compete in the playoffs. Ironically the ref staff will have to improve a great deal before being allowed to ref a playoff game.

    • I too, wish #15 was healthy and playing.  And also another RB (can't recall the #), who went down in the first game of the season. But, some others have stepped up and are hard runners.  I'm really looking forward to watching this game. 
    • Still, from what little I saw, it should have been a much closer game.  WOS was missing some fundamentals on defense, and a lack of imaginative play calling on offense.  Just my opinion as an objective observer on Texan Live, which was horrible btw, but that's another story. 
    • Either way,one game lead in the series. I rely to much on word of mouth 
    • West Orange Stark has been a powerhouse since I csn remember. At some point, your bound to fall off to some degree. Alabama has 3 or 4 loses this season. Who would have thought? Has Orange lost kids to LCM or even Orangefield?
    • Interesting matchup this Friday. Both teams have very good offensive and defensive lines, which will make this game interesting. Having watched Texas High all season, they have a wide open offense with very good skill players. If you look at their stats they run the ball 57% of the time and pass 43% of the time. Personally, that is a bit deceiving, as most of their games have seen reserves running the ball in the 4th quarter. I would estimate the primary offense is 50/50. Through 12 games they have run for 3,224 yds (48tds) and passed for 2,894 yds (32 yds). Potter, the Tiger QB, has been very efficient with a 69% completion rate and 1 interception (which came from a tipped pass). The passing is distributed primarily to 4 receivers…. Ball (865), Wrightner (811), Montgomery (532), & Pilgreen (392). The rushing comes from 3 running backs … Johnson (1,432), Ball (768) & Moore (716).  The Tiger defense is solid and very quick.    Hope #15 is healthy enough to play. He is a test for any defense. I was concerned about the Nederland RB, but felt Texas High did a good job containing him. I wish this game was in the afternoon, as Nachitoches is having their Festival of Lights and their will not be any rooms in the inns and restaurants will be full so plan accordingly. PNG are state champions until someone knocks them off, so I extend the Indians the respect they deserve. Pulling for the Tigers.
