texark66 Posted August 22, 2010 Report Posted August 22, 2010 This was a closed scrimmage at the Texas High indoor facility. The local Texarkana paper gave a good account of the scrimmage. No score was kept.Tiger plus - Forced three turnovers committed none. Passing game seemed better then expected. Very deep squad this year.Negatives - Way to many dropped pass attempts . Nothing said on kicking game. So that is a ? mark.PG - Played very hard. They simply were out manned. PG coach called Texas High a great football team. He said PG played tough, but we are "gassed now"We will see how it goes Friday @ Longview with the Tigers game against 4A Vidor from SE Texas.I have a feeling the season will go well for TX. High if they can stay away from injuries. The defense looks to be fairly stout.Texarkana PG is a 3A team. They are fairly young. They made the playoffs last year.To all the Vidor fans that will travel to Lobo Stadium this Friday in Longview, please have a safe and enjoyable trip.
lobo1982 Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 Vidor fans, plenty of places to eat within a mile from the school. I think that you will love the stadium as well.The stadium home side is all chairback seating and the visitor side seats around 5500. The pressbox is part of the school.

BrenhamFan Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 Not sure that's a good idea either. That food might come right back up. How are the Pirates going to move the ball against a team of this caliber, after losing the three headed monster? Even with those guys I think they would lose by atleast 21.No disrespect, but I think the Tigers are just too much for the Pirates.Texas High 45Vidor 10
piratefan Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 does anyone know the physical address of stadium?

BrenhamFan Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 I'm not saying it's impossible for Vidor to win.... Just not likely.

Guest Kvillecatz Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 vidor gonna be so banged up after there first 2 games both mentaly and physically.I cant wait for Sept 10th ;D silsbee scoreboard gonna be lit up like never before
Tim Riggins Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 But what about playing a tougher schedule? Isn't that supposed to help the team get ready for district regardless of the outcome? That conclusion seems to be the consensus on this board for the past couple of years.
NDN79 Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 Vidor definitely has a tough opening game. I hope the Pirates come out victorious, but I must agree with BrenhamFan(wow! a PN-G fan agreeing with someone from Brenham)that it will probably be unlikely. ::)
Guest Kvillecatz Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 you gotta think that texas high will not let up. they will probably run up the score bigtime just to keep their ranking. if they let vidor keep it close that would hurt their rankings , huh ? i say they need to win by 40 or 50 since vidor is unranked and that is prolly their goal.

It's not the BCS. :D They arnt ranked in the top 10 anyways. DCTF & FNF has them at #19. Once the season starts they only show the top 10.
Tim Riggins Posted August 25, 2010 Report Posted August 25, 2010 Vidor will need to play keep away with their ball control offense, hold onto the ball and limit Texas High's big play offense.
