The first 5 games for Crosby are going to be brutal for them! 8)
[/quote]Right you are, but I like the setup of their schedule: preseason 1-1, if they could come out of the first 3 district games 2-1 with lone lose to Dayton(playoffs for sure). But if they come out 1-2 in first three districts games, they still could make the playoffs easily enough because of the 5 brutal games.

Same as usual for Crosby.Always a good offense but rarely have a solid defense.The big factor is Crosby lost(graduation)1 of the best punter/kicker they ever had.Helped Coogs win alot of close games & pinned opposition in deep holes 8)

Yall keep doubting Crosby! I still think that they will be the best team in district this year. They return the best two players in the distict along with 13 starters and a Coach that lead a high powered SS team to a State Championship! The Coogs have a lot of potential this year.

Start 4-1 and finish 7-3.

Lose to Dayton, Humble and K Park. ( no reason, just a hunch)

Crosby tends to be their own worst enemy.

Kind of like Vidor couldn't handle Crosby's speed last year?  What was the score in that game last year???
[/quote]

Let the adults talk please.

You Vidor boys are gonna ride that "last year" horse into the ground. Pretty sure they were talking the same crap back in '65. How did that work out for ya?

Adults?? That's a joke right?

42-20. Nuff said.

Speed didn't help much with Vidor and Nederland has just as good of a defense as
Vidor if not better.

Sorry for the word "whipped".  How about 3 times in the last 2 years?  You make a statement about Nederland not being able to handle Crosby's speed, but have nothing to back it up with.  We lost to one team last year that was loaded with speed (Dawson) and held our own against them.

Congrats on your wins against GCM and your moral victory against Dawson.

I'll stick to my prediction. Nederland can not run with the Coogs THIS YEAR.

Ok, I get the phrase "that was last year and this is a new year".  But practice has not even started THIS year.  So to make the statement "nederland can't hang with crosbys speed"is based on what?
[/quote]

Based on Crosby's speed.
