Week 5: Sinton Pirates (0-3) at Yoakum Bulldogs (1-3)

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Last year game: Yoakum 61 Sinton 27

Last game
Sinton 20 Beeville 34 (Sinton unable to hold on to a 20-7 lead heading to 4th qtr)
Yoakum 12 Needville 49 (Yoakum faced a good Needville team that went toe to toe against Calallen week before)

DCTF line: Yoakum by 25 (largest line for Sinton this year entering a game)

Sinton was without RB Rylan Galvan averaging 128 yds a game and Robert Hughes a 4 year starter due to injuries in Miller game. Not sure if they'll be good to go in this week game.

This has been a back and forth series past several years with some overtimes. Yoakum is young and Sinton rebounding from there down year and looking for thier first win of the season.

I listened to this game and Yoakum played sloppy football. The Bulldogs moved the ball well but when the dogs got in the red zone they fumbled the ball, bad snap moved the ball from the 3 Yd line back to the 23. And when on the 5 TD line threw a interception in end one.
Just sloppy football but Needville is a good football team with a outstanding RB.
This Yoakum team is talented but young and needs to grow up fast.

[YTBulldogs]

They are growing up just fine bluecat. No injury's is the key in this brutal ND schedule. They'll be there when it counts, I assure you.

7th grade
Sinton 28 Kingsville 0
8th grade
Sinton 28 Kingsville 0 at the half didn't stay for 2nd half

7th grade team is 2-0 with two shut outs. Qb for the 7th grade is Tyler Handson youngest brother, looks just as calm and in control at qb like his brother.

FR/JV

Sinton 20 Yoakum 6 Final

[YTBulldogs]

All on varsity. Glade they scored last night. Should be a good one tonight, to finish out this brutal non-district schedule. Key, been pretty healthy against Boerne, Cuero, Gonzales, Needville and hopefully Sinton. All starts for real next week for the youngeons vs. a solid Industrial team, there. Industrial my dark horse team. Could very well win the district.

[Snotbubbles]

da'dogs BIGGGGGGG. Say, 25+.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Sinton has started out pretty good in all their 3 games even having the lead, young offensive line can keep at it for 4 qtrs maybe come out with a win in Bulldog country. They're getting more comfortable out there another good test before the Bruni game.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Sinton still without rb Rylan Galvan, hopefully he'll be ready by district

Sinton with its 2nd lead at the half in back to back games, Need good 3rd and 4th qtr

Yoakum receives in 2nd half

Yoakum 13 Sinton 10 Final

Sinton young offensive line struggled against Yoakum D-line. Yoakum O line controlled the game in 2nd half

After Yoakum late fumble in endzone for touchback Sinton had one last chance but stopped at Yoakum 40 on 4th and 2.
Sinton 0-4
Yoakum 2-3

Sinton hopefully gets healthy in 2 weeks for district opener against Rockport-Fulton.

[Snotbubbles]

Appeared Bo went totally vanilla here from what I seen. Showed nothing, basic plays and played them all. Typical Bo in non-district.

Bruni? Sad thing here, Sinton is becoming more like those further south teams in make-up. IE: Bruni, Port Isabel, Raymondville, Falfurrias, Rio Hondo . Dominate south, get North of 37 they struggle.
Really sad to see a storied program become a valley-like program. Pirates will still go 1 maybe 2 rounds in playoffs due to region matchups. Then baseball, which they will be good in, as well as soccer.

Bruni was actually a savior after the last realignment or else Sinton would have had 2 open weeks. All the other teams had filled up their non-district schedules so Sinton was left hanging until Bruni called. Not a great team but its good homecoming game before district starts. Also Sinton doesn't have a soccer team but they do have a volleyball team that is pretty good this year.

Glad no soccer it would take some players out of football like basketball and baseball do. Lose more to only baseball that use to play football.

Maybe they'll line up now to get shot at Sinton since we're down for past two season.

Had game highlights but it crashed when it was saving and files got damaged, was 9 mins long will redo to about 5-6 minutes later today.

Just reading the stats verifies what bubbles just stated. Yoakum typically passes the ball 50% of the time and I know that Bo has been working on getting the wrinkles worked out on some running plays he wants to use in district. The dogs have to clean up losing fumbles if they want to make a run in the playoffs.

Yoakum passing last 3 games has pass for under 60 yards. Seems they run the ball better so they do better running it. Good win but don't make execuses like snotbubbles because it wasn't 25+ like he predicted. Video i 'm doing right now it sure doesn't look like vanilla plays but a play usually successful if you win the battle up front.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Last two games Sinton defense not to bad, against Beeville held them to 269 total yards, 232 rush 37 pass. Led that game 20-7 into the 4th qtr and Yoakum 287 total yards, 231 rush 56 pass and led that game in to 3rd qtr.

No excuse, in the video you showed Yoakum predominately in the Wildcat formation in different sets. That is not the primary offense Yoakum runs typically. Bo is working with different players and different options with the formation. Once district starts Yoakum will return back to the offense they have run for years. That’s just Bo getting the team ready for district and playoffs. That’s not a excuse it’s just preparation for games that really count, district.

Its always a good day when Sinton loses

It might be a while before its a good day this season and coming years. It's early but in two weeks RF is a 10 point favorite from DCTF line.

Doesn't matter what set or plays kids upfront make all the difference if a play is going to be successful every team is doing the same thing preparing for district play.

Sinton has 4 sophomores on the offensive line and 3 freshman that started in Yoakum game. #88 freshman is regular starter on defense the other two started due to couple of injuries by regular starters. Offense was mostly all soph and fr in that game.

Defense is more loaded with seniors. Well good luck to Bulldogs rest of the season and i think somebody mention coach Owens is still with Bulldogs glad he's doing better. His son Ethan was one of my favorite players when he was in Sinton.
