Port Neches-Groves vs. Crosby Game Thread/Crosby wins!

[rollinac]

Weird....go for two on a fake xp to go up by 8 and then kick a pat to go up by 6 instead of going for 2 to make it 7.  Don't the coaches carry around one of those little cards on when to go for 2?  Strange call...anyway, this is a bit of a surprise final.

Crosby pretty much ran it down their throats tonight. Didn't attempt more than 15 passes. PN-G is pretty dang physical so it was pleasantly surprising how the Cougars just kept pounding the rock.

Also Crosby's kicker is very slow to the ball for his PAT's im sure that's in the scouting report.

They've been fighting that. it's a combination from snap to hold to kicker.  Kicker's got 50+ yd. range if they can smooth-out the delivery.

You say PNG wasn't soft and then ya'll turn around and say that you ran it down the NDNS throat. Last week ya'll got blown out by Montgomery. I will give some credit to Crosby for playing hard, but I do think PNG D is played soft as well from what I heard on the radio. PNG couldn't stop Crosby in the second half.

PN-G is physical, but Crosby was more physical. 360+ yards on 50 carries qualifies for running it down anyone's throat.

I don't disagree with you, but if a defense gives up 360 yards on the ground then I say thier soft period. If Crosby was so stout then why couldn't they hang last week with a good team like Montgomery. I said tonight was a combination of Crosby playing good and PNG D being soft. Congrats on the win.

1 word. Turnovers. 3 in a row followed by 3 straight td's and anyone gets buried. If your fascinated with calling UR defense soft, by all means go ahead. I know the Cougs where putting hats on hats and ran the ball well. Just enough passes to force PNG to not stack the box with 9.

Crosby had 5 or 6 turnovers last week and was down 35-0. Then by end of 3rd qtr or so it was 42-28. Montgomery beat the hell out of a really solid 5A Spring team tonight.

Good win crosby

[cougar18]

Does anybody know why crosby wore away uni's and png was in their home uni's??

[liltex]

Listened on 92.5 on the way home from NShore and when Indians went back ahead (100yd k/o ret)I was doing a tomahawk chop to cherokee then boom,flat tire when Crosby answered right back.Great game by both 8)

[bulldawg64]

png was in their home jerseys?

[cougar18]

Haha yea i was kinda thrown off when the two teams ran onto the field...

[RED MACHINE]

Crosby wore away uni's because last years seniors stole the home jerseys & the new ones haven't come in.

[liltex]

Stole the hm uni's ::)

Every other year they get new jerseys and it alternates. New Homes this year, Aways next year. After two years of using them, they get ripped up, etc. Not buying the story about all of them getting stolen. Don't some teams let seniors keep their outgoing jersey, if new ones are being ordered?

[SETEXFan]

The kids can buy the jerseys but it is illegal to give them to the players.....

As long as they didn't trade them for tats it will be ok.

Oh My,  ;DCrows are circling Port Neches ;D

[asary]

i would guess PNG is a little ticked. Really wouldn't want to be their opponent next week!!!

[TradinUp BH]

I'm eating mine right now. ;D Gregory-Portland lost to a weak Calallen team last night 21-0. GP still hasn't scored. NDNDS have some work to do before District begins for sure.

Alot of that had to do with him having huge holes to run through last year. Its not as easy when you have to work for it.
