NDNWarrior Posted September 27, 2009 Report Posted September 27, 2009 PN-G vs. Big Ned. Indians vs. Bulldogs. Purple and white against black and gold. 15,000 fans jam packed into the 13,000 seat Reservation. College game atmosphere. "Mid-County Madness". All that and more describes the 85 year rivalry between the Port Neches-Groves Indians and Nederland Bulldogs. Since 1925 the Indians and Bulldogs have battled for the bragging rights of the area nestled between Beaumont and Port Arthur Texas known as Mid-Jefferson County or 'Mid County'. During game week, football in the small towns of Port Neches, Groves and Nederland Texas is backed with a level of enthusiasm that matches any area in the state. And when game night finally arrives, regardless of the outcome, both teams leave everything on the field until the next meeting. PN-G leads the series 47-31-7.

I'm sure they will be able to give you some information about where to get a copy.
dawgnut Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 this is a crazy rivalry. im from a smaller school and ima try and go this year Better know someone with tickets, they are not sold at the gate!
jake94 Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 I did not realize Nederland had won 7 of the last 9. I don't think that will help us much this year though.
PNG Proud Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 I did not realize Nederland had won 7 of the last 9. I don't think that will help us much this year though. Yeah, Neumann definitely had Burnett's number.
AggiesAreWe Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 That's alot of history !!! Is there any other rivalry older than PNG and Nederland ? Well, as far as oldest, that would be Jasper/Silsbee. They started playing each other in 1922. But, Ned/PNG have played more games against each other. This year wiil be the 86th meeting between the two Mid county schools. Silsbee/Jasper will be playing their 72nd contest between the two.
Nederland Dog 2006 Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 Forget Odessa/ Midland.....MID COUNTY MADNESS IS TEXAS HIGHSCHOOL FOOTBALL!

Contact him at the HS if you wish to purchase one.

GO INDIANS!!!! Should have won last year?! Y'all lost by 20! He means, well I don't know what he means. We gotted "handled" in that game to say the least. All I can reason is that us PNG fans think we should be Ned every year no matter what. And I'm sure the Ned fans feel the same way about PNG!

I will keep looking around or if some has an extra copy I am will to buy to replace the one I lost. Thanks again.....
