Long Tall Texan Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 Thanks for those, it will be interesting to see how they change in the weeks ahead.
oldschool59 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 lets not forget vidor has run through some private school divisions. ;D repost those halfway through the year
smitty Posted September 10, 2009 Author Report Posted September 10, 2009 I will try to post every week to see who rises, who falls, and who stays the same. lets not forget vidor has run through some private school divisions. ;D repost those halfway through the year
NDN79 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 Thanks smitty for posting the stats--it will give us some more topics for discussion
BMTSoulja1 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 You know, this would be a great idea if you keep up with this weekly. Also, consider doing the same thing for the 5a district and the small school districts. Good stuff, Smitty.
TenaciousK Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 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.
shorttexas1 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 No one is saying that Vidor did not play football... But it is different when playing decent private schools and WOS, Memorial, WB, Central, etc....
badndn Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 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.
team first Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 Here we go again... if speaking the truth is here we go again, then ur rt, here we go again

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.
NorthoftheBorder Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 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.

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.
BMTSoulja1 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 We don't trust the 'Suprise' or the 'Barnicle'...
AggiesAreWe Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 We don't trust the 'Suprise' or the 'Barnicle'... But Soulja, I believe that is where smitty is getting his numbers.
BMTSoulja1 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 I know a kind gentleman from Silsbee, Tx that will have accurate stats... ;D ;D ;D.
AggiesAreWe Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 I know a kind gentleman from Silsbee, Tx that will have accurate stats... ;D ;D ;D. It will only be for Silsbee and it's opponents. But you can count on them being accurate, that's for sure.
NDNTime Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 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.
jake94 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 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.

I have seen many a team get blown away in the stat department but still win the game.

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
7 Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 Look for LC-M and Nederland's stats to get a little better as the only opponent they have played to date is WO-S. Not saying that either team will climb to the top... simply improve.
