TenaciousK Posted September 27, 2009 Report Posted September 27, 2009 they didnt punch hard enough last week. Rushes/Yds 71/430 I'd say they punched plenty hard. The last play, egh, I would've gone QB sneak, but maybe that's just me. Having been a center, I know you can punch hard enough on initial contact to generate enough momentum and allow the QB to follow on your coat-tails to go in from 1.5yds out. If I were the coach I would have said.."QB sneak, on touch..just follow your center home." But I'm not second guessing Mathews at all. He's never done me wrong, and I wont be one to bad mouth him.
outrider52 Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 Problem for Vidor will be going on the road to play the top rated team in district/defending district co-champ after losing such a hard fought game against Central. Back to back road games against "possibly" the two top teams will be hard. The intensity/emotion/manner of loss of the Central game may have a lingering effect against Lumberton. We'll see if the Pirates can put the Central loss behind them and not let one loss beat them twice. Road games: Central, Lumberton, Port Neches-Groves, Nederland Home games: Ozen, LCM, Livingston
PNG Proud Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 I'll give the nod to Snuff Gully (Vidor). Not much of a nod, but a nod nonetheless. Vidor by 3
raideroldtimer Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 This board is great, most are picking Vidor to win over the defending district champs. Lumberton will have a secret weapon for this game................ We are going to borrow Livingston's game announcer and let her yell and scream at Vidor all night long!! (If you have not played in Livingston yet, you won't understand - just wait) Lumberton 45 Vidor 21 ROFLMAO!!!!
raideroldtimer Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 I did some thinking. Vidor had to chase down our speedsters all night. We broke several long runs on their defense because they are slower. Vidor will not see this kind of speed in the L-train, therefore, making this a lower scoring game. L-Train will put up some points though, but it will take more plays to do it, raising the chance for more mistakes like fumbles. Vidor fumbles too, but based on the amount of run plays that Vidor do in a game, those turnovers are nothing. This game will favor Vidor as well since Vidor's O-line will wear L-trains' D-Line fast. Lumberton better score on every opportunity or Vidor will pull off the win... I gotta disagree Soulja, Keith is fast, very fast. I watched this kid all summer run track. He was hangin with good competition until it went to Austin and San Antonio. He will beat Vidor all night. He will match the problems Vidor had with Daw. Vidor on the other hand will have that running game to counter. Their's another kid Lumberton have also that play opposite of Keith. Lumberton will score points. Just being a realist here Thanks for that information. Didn't know Lumberton had an athlete. This could be interesting then... my pleasure I can tell you both this, when livingstons rb would break free and everyone thought they would be gone all in a sudden kieth, and pace would run them down from behind. I for one was very surpised by this. and to be honest i believe the pace kid is faster than kieth and just a soph. wow Yeah, how'd you guys like that play when Lance ran the back down and caught by the ankle to stop the TD. I didn't notice if Vidor ran a bunch of counters like Livingston did all night, so you can bet the Beast will be gobbling up that middle run.
raideroldtimer Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 I figure because we only showed up for the first 24 minutes last year . Ltrain 28 VEDOOR 14 And got out played the other 24 Vidor 42 Train 28 I still think Vidor brought in a new team for the second half, those guys played like they hadn't even been on the field yet, I can't remember ever seeing a team come out in the second half like Vidor did against us. I really wouldn't count on it happening twice though, you can bet Coach C AND the guys who were on last years teams, be it in the game or on the sidelines, will be ready for another attempted assault.
TenaciousK Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 The intensity/emotion/manner of loss of the Central game may have a lingering effect against Lumberton If they were blown out, I could see that being a point. But I wouldn't take a game you played great in as a lingering handicap. (Minus the fumbles of course)

(Minus the fumbles of course) No kidding, look what Dayton did year before last or for that matter what Livingston did last year after losing their first district game to us, both of the teams went undefeated the rest of the season.
Vidor50 Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 8) Coach Matthews will have his squad prepared and fired up to go this week against the L-Train in Lumberton. Should be a great game and Vidor should put this one away. I look for a lot of scoring this week again.
warpaint101 Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 I think the home field advantage will keep this one close .for lumberton,,,,,,BUT I think central will win in the end!
Huggie Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 The Raiders have respect for all of the 20-4A teams. I think the Lumberton/Vidor game will be a toss up, but you know I'm pulling for my Raiders. Watch out for Livingston!

My thoughts exactly........Vidor was GAME ON in the second half......hopefully we learned something from that!
TradinUp BH Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 I love this district because every week there is going to be a good game. Good luck to both teams
Guest Its_All_About_Tha_U Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 Does anyone know the last time Lumberton lost at home? Probably can go back to 2006 season sometime. I think homefield could be the difference in this game.
raid07 Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 Does anyone know the last time Lumberton lost at home? Probably can go back to 2006 season sometime. I think homefield could be the difference in this game. I believe it was October 20, 2006 to PNG.
team first Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 ltrain rolls, vidor d has trouble slowing down their own practice squad, much less the ltrain
BMTSoulja1 Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 ltrain rolls, vidor d has trouble slowing down their own practice squad, much less the ltrain Seems like the L-Train have their troubles stoppint the run as well. Livingston ran wild on that D. It makes me wonder is Beard even played that game. I know he normally introduce himself to the opposint RB quit often. But this aint Livingston. Vidor will move the ball. then about time the 4th quarter comes, Lumberton's D will be worn out...
Vidor50 Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 I think by the 4th quarter the Pirates will have worn them down and have a good lead. Lumberton's home field advantage might work against them this week as they are too confident that they will run all over the Pirates. Coach Matthews will have them ready to play for the gold Friday night.
raidernaytion Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 Kelly , St. Thomas , HJ , Central : Vidor will see a real team for the first time this season when they come to Lumberton. Our defense will stop their offense and rack up the points. L-town 48 Vidor 14
