lets not forget vidor has run through some private school divisions.  repost those halfway through the year

Yeah, Vidor has played private schools, but did the private schools not have 11 players on both sides of the ball? Were any of their players missing limbs, or in wheelchairs? 11 vs. 11 is still a football game. Also, lets not forget private schools can pretty much "recruit."

Sounds like you're placing Vidor's success thus far on the grounds of no quality opponents.

I mean, it's not rocket science to say it's had an obvious hand in padding the stats, but to suggest Vidor isn't capable of their stats is an insult to the kids, and the kids they've played against.

TenaciousK do you really think Vidor will gain 500 yards against anyone in 20-4A?

Vidor has a good team that's not being challanged. As I have said before Vidor has weaknesses (every team does), but they won't find them out unitl District play because none of their pre-district opponents are strong enough to expose them and it may be too late to fix them by then.

I have watched the 2 Vidor games, and it is hard to tell how strong/weak the opponents were.  I am not saying that Vidor is unstoppable and has no weaknesses--they do.  However, if I had to bet, I would actually guess that Vidor will put up 500 yards of offense against at least one 20-4A opponent.  I don't know who it will be or when it will be.  But when you have 7 chances, Vidor's offense will get rolling big at least once.  When it is working, the offense is designed to really churn up the yards.  When it breaks, it looks horrible.  I have never seen Vidor run it so well (against anybody).  This is all just my opinion.

The Houston Chronicle shows Vidor offense @ 967 yds through 2 games and Lumberton's @ 718 yds.  Didn't look up the other teams but they should be different as well.  Couldn't find the defensive stats.

The thing about getting stats off of the newspaper websites is that they will always be different. I have found that I cannot trust those numbers. I have kept stats for both Silsbee games this year and have matched them with the coaching staffs and our numbers for the Tigers have not been the same as the ones you will find in the Enterprise or Chronicle.

I think that you should run the numbers against district opponents.  You could have 2 sections.  One section with season totals and one section for games played within the district totals.

Absolutely! Whose stats would be better... Texas vs. Lousiana-Monroe or Alabama vs. VA Tech? Although some people contend "there are still 11 guys out there"  ::)  I think the stats will be skewed until district. It's not an apples to apples comparison. Once the district SEASON is in the books, it will then be an accurate portrayal.

Accurate portrayal of what? Stats are just stats, no matter who you are playing. I have seen many a team get blown away in the stat department but still win the game.

An accurate portrayal of stats. That is what we are talking about, right? I agree a lot of times the stats do not tell the story or even indicate who won the game.

Amen to that, look at I-Preps as an example. The L-Town/BH game looking through the Lumberton link gave their quarterback like 17 yards, and those of who were there knew better than that. That kid ran at least 50 or more yards and he was their leading rusher. Funny thing is, the day after the game if you looked through each teams links you saw very different rushing numbers for Viverette and yet today they now match. LOL

    • Hutch and the Cardinals by 40 BC is BACK!!!
    • Regardless of the offense, kids need a reason or purpose to play football. Normally, for most kids, football is something they genuinely enjoy playing, because most players won’t be suiting up on Saturdays. At the end of the day, the most successful teams have kids and coaches that genuinely love the game and get joy and fulfillment playing it.  Vidor’s two current biggest issues are the lack of appeal to play the game and a lack of community support. The offense has been the same for years, and Mathews did a great job of getting the kids and community behind his teams year in and year out. Vidor’s whole identity was being a team you hated to play because you knew you were in for a long physical night. That made the game fun for the kids who played, and they took a lot of pride in it. Currently, I would argue that the toxic attitude of the community towards the offense and Dubois in general is the biggest thorn in the team’s side. The need for instant gratification from fans is what is fueling it all. When the players go home or out in the community and hear: how bad the offense is, how bad the defense is, or how bad the coaching is, the players will begin to lose pride in the program, and the game is no longer fun. This leads to discipline issues and players quitting. Vidor has lost their identity and Dubois and the offensive scheme isn’t the culprit. The Vidor community needs to leave their objections of who they hired at the door and let the man work if they wanna be successful in the future. 
    • We will see i heard they pretty dam good 3 losses but all to great teams
    • Yes. May have been Jimmies. What I’m seeing is a lot more teams going back to more ‘traditional style’ offenses. These things go in cycles, and it’s very difficult for all but mega schools to consistently find QB’s who can really be effective with a true spread type offense year in and year out. I’d venture to guess most schools have an outstanding QB that can win a game almost on their own only every few years if that, and that’s what you need for the ‘high flying’ spreads. So coaches go for the O’s that they can groom the majority of kids to be successful running, and take advantage of the superstar’s skills more within that O when they get them.
