incognito Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 The "Battle of the Black and Gold" this will be the biggest [u]non rivalry[/u] game in 20-4A, good luck to both teams.
QueenPirate Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 Great article! This game will be the best game of the season. It may very well come down to who has the ball last. Both teams are great and Sept 28 can't come fast enough!GO PIRATES!!

That plays a huge factor no matter what game during the season you are playing. ;)
robanadana Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 Blackbuc, I think we talked about this during the Clear Brook game. Couldn't agree more....this game will come down to turnovers, IMO.
phunter308 Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 Nice article but do believe Coach Mathews is blowing sunshine at Nederland. Trying to get the DOGS a little more confidence so as not to focus on Vidor. Well it is not going to work as the DOGS are solely focused on going to The Bone-yard and leaving with a win that will be hard earned for sure. Vidor is definitely not the underdog in this one as they are 3-0 and Nederland is 2-1.

phunter308 Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 Just saying seems like a little to much [b]praise[/b] or maybe a motivation tool for his Pirates. Two good teams all around.

mytwocents-28 Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 A guy gives yall respect and yall can't even accept that....smh.....
phunter308 Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 I think you may be confusing gamesmanship for sportsmanship. Mathews is a smart coach who has been around enough to play head games. Believe me we appreciate all the praise but if you think that that is all it is you are not reading between the lines. I mean no disrespect at all. Coach Mathews is a great coach. Ne may need to pass a little more but we shall see.

Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 I wont be losing my bet in this one. NED wins. ;)
Wyatt Posted September 17, 2012 Report Posted September 17, 2012 Jeff has always had nothing but respect for all of vidors opponents. I think he was giving credit where credit is due. Nederland is the defending champs and they return more starters then anyone else in the district.

jake94 Posted September 18, 2012 Report Posted September 18, 2012 Actually,almost as many Pirate fans are picking Vidor by double digits as Ned fans are. I believe YOU picked Vidor by 10 and a score of 31/21 so why are you asking Buddy for 10 points now? I don't think the margin on this game will be double digits no matter who wins it. I also think it will be fairly low scoring.Vidor by double digits: Robanadana, dustoff33, vidor96pirates, jmoore..Nederland by double digits:thedogs1987, buddy Garrity, tdavis9, bulldog1984,mr. Happy, trocket, dmeast11111, png proud, dogs1988, godogs27.I think it will be a close and low scoring game. I agree with a previous post saying that a big key in this game will be what happens the handful of times that Vidor throws it. I will take the Dogs 17/14.

[/quote][/b]Exactly, Nederland is defending district 20-4A champs until proven otherwise, therefore they go into this game as the clear favorite. As for Mathews trying to get into Nederlands head...maybe, but he says the same types of things in the locker room to his players. With Mathews what you see is what you get.
chorizo Posted September 18, 2012 Report Posted September 18, 2012 Not gonna be close..the dogs knock the sails right off the pirate ship....this game might get outta hand....have fun this yr pee-rats......in the next couple yrs the pee-rats will be right back to the normal ol veedor football of the past....probaly another 50 yrs.......
