Tiger90 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Very tough game. Newton is a very solid team.....once again. Silsbee has got to get the option handoff under control. You reach a point where you let the handoff go through. For you guys left to play Newton here are a few tips. When you see Newton's #21 line up in the wing in an angle set he is going to run to that side he is facing. When the 2 backfield players are offset to the end of the o-line the ball is headed that side. They are simple.......but stop it if you can. :twisted:
Westbrook_future#15 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 mayne newton played an awesome game but every team lose some but i know silsbee couldnt go another quater wtih the newton boys
Tiger90 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 :?: Explain..... It was a pretty even game throughout. With the hot humid night, fatigue was a factor, but both squads were beginning to suffer. It was a game where whoever had the ball last was going to win. Newton could not stop Silsbee's last drive and Silsbee was in a prevent trying to slow Newton late. It was just a good solid small town football game. It was everything a "game of the week " should be. Newton may have lost, but they played a very good game and will go far. Few penalties were called except where obvious such as a pass int. and a few face masks. The kids were allowed "to play".
KFDM COOP Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Looked like to me Newton wore down in the 4th Quarter.
Tiger90 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 I agree. Newton was fast and had faster scoring drives. Silsbee's drives were alot slower. IMO this worked in Silsbee's favor late. There is only so much pounding a body can take. It is tough for any small school to go 4 quarters in a tough game with low reserve players.
vp93 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Yes, I would deffinatly say that Silsbee's big O line wore Newton out in the 4th.
Tiger90 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 I was worried when I seen a couple of the line starters not dressed for this week's game. We had some sophomores step up tonight.
STiger85 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 What a game Silsbee 27-Newton 23. I thought Silsbee left to much time on the clock (2:07) when they last scored, But that awesome defense came through.
AggiesAreWe Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Actually, Silsbee had 3 defensive starters( 2 lineman, 1 lb ) and 1 offensive starter ( lineman ) not play. Also, Terrance McCarter, the Tiger's leading rusher coming into this game, played sparingly because of some injuries.
SETXsports Broadcaster Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 folks I am wooped Man what a game, let me tell you I know it is difficult to visualize it listing on the net (sorry) but those two team let it all hang out. I agree that Silsbee's main problem is on the handoff...seemed like maybe the QB was pulling it to late and the RB had already clamped down on the ball and when the QB went to pull it out it would pop the ball out...but still it was a great game for both...I think I will sit back now and drink an ice tea and just unwind
WOS95 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 it was a great game. it did look like newton was beginning to wear down a bit at the end, but i thought they still looked like they had a little gas in the tank. i was wondering if anyone knows if newton ever put a spy on the silsbee quarterback? it seemed like every 3rd down and long silsbee had in the 4th quarter was a quarterback keeper. especially on silsbee's game winning drive, when it was 3rd and 14 after a bad pitch, the silsbee qb took it for a first down by himself. i think he made a 15 yard run. i give credit though to silsbee that played hard and wanted to win real bad. that silsbee quarterback is a great athlete and #28 rocky calhoun is tough. #21 for newton was very impressive and he's just in the 10th grade.
piratefan Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 what a win for silsbee..congrats...
KFDM COOP Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Should be a good one with WOS in a few weeks.
WOS95 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Should be a good one with WOS in a few weeks. i agree, if silsbee plays like they did in the second half against newton, then it's going to be a great game with wos. 8)
BH89 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 South East Texas seems to be a little down this year. Going to be interesting come round 2 of the playoffs for 3-A and 1st round for 4-A.
Gasilla Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 Are you including The Hill in that?
SHS-84 Posted September 24, 2006 Report Posted September 24, 2006 I love it. "Seems to be down". Maybe there are just alot of good teams in southeast Texas this year, and some very tough match up. Ever thought of that? Its been posted on every forum in the state since realignment. The sad part of it is, some teams that are down, from elsewhere in Texas 3a football will make it to the playoffs while better teams sit at home and watch.
