This should be a good game. Columbus is 1-0 in district after defeating Smithville in a tough game. Meanwhile Sealy is 0-1 following a very competitive game in Giddings. The Tigers have lost their last three games to teams with a combined 11-2 record.
The thought here is that the Tigers showed a different offense against Giddings and put some points on the board can it carry over to this game, or will the boys feel the strain of recent defeats.

This will be a good game and Columbus will be very confident. I think this is the week that Sealy realizes they can still win. I pick Sealy by 7.

Sealy is 0-1 in district, but are far from out. They still have what it takes to repeat their performance from a year ago, although they have a much tougher core of teams left to play.

Good luck Tigers!

Sealy can win this game...and I think they will get back on track right here. Manny Leyendecker is playing for us this year (he played MLB at Columbus last year), and I thought that Columbus wouldn't have a good year at all since he, Curtis Carter and Steward Beaird all graduated. I was wrong about that, but let's hope I'm not wrong about the outcome of this game.

I don't think this game will be very close. Sealy wants to get back to the show, and they made that very obvious the other night with their effort. They are a good bunch of athletes.

I only have one thing to say buff4ever, you seem to only have negative things to say about Columbus, but maybe if we had a 20 year old leading the team you could be little more positive. We have to fight it out with the normal ones that start first grade at 5 or 6 not 8 or 9

Both towns have great coaching staffs that have been working hard to rebuild. It seems that all of the kids are believing in the systems. It will be a great game between two hard working programs.

Please give another dead on prediction like you did for the Smithville game!! BTW, have you actually seen Columbus play? Just curious since you have these opinions on how all the games will not be close. Did you not figure out that Columbus actually plays a little defense, which to my knowledge can actually help win a few games and keep them close. There are some pretty decent athletes at C-Town if you haven't figured that out either.

I wasn't even going to give a couple of these messages the time of day, but you I will call out. I don't THINK I made an actual prediction. I THINK what I said was more along the lines of if Smithville was as good as they and the american statesman said that that game wouldn't be close. So from my statement, I have determined since the game with yall that they were just on the rise due to the lack of strength in their schedule.

Maybe you can prove me wrong, I have been before; but I am pretty sure my what you call prediction on that game was more of a IF scenario waiting to find out which was the case.

On this weeks game with Sealy, based on the level of play and intensity from their team, I have stated what I believe will happen. DO I HAVE THAT RIGHT ON THIS BOARD?

I think Sealy pulls this one out in a close one. Sealy will come into the game needing the home field advantage and this may be the game that decides the rest of Sealy's season.

No your right, never said they are bad, just they should finish last if Smithville wants to give the spot up. Just curious as to why buff4ever makes these predictions. Its a simple question really. Have you seen the Cards play or just shoot from the hip based on graduation, previous records, Dave Campbells Magazine, or just plain football intelligence? Football intelligence would say that Columbus has a pretty good defense and offense, so they should be considered a contender in this district not a cellar dweller. IMO, there are really no bad teams in this district, so it is really hard to say that a certain team or 2 are going to be battling it out for last place. Said in previous posts that this district is tough and every Friday night will be a war!!! No need to get all offended, just trying to figure you out.

Buffy,Obviously you have not seen Columbus play. They will have Tiger for dinner AGAIN this week by 17. Just hope they do not have the same referees that Columbus and Smithville had to put up with. That was to the point of rediculous. Good luck to both sides and play a clean game. Oh yea,may bring some towels for the tigers. They will need them for surrender flags and to wipe their tears away when the RED BIRDS have their way with them. Suck it up Sealy,you are not as good as you think you are. Just cause Mitchel says so does not make it so.

Can you really judge a past opponent to determine how successful you are. To say that Giddings, Navasota or St. Pius are
not good football teams is absurd. St. Pius has been state champions for the last two years. You can claim their division is not as tough as others, but ask any head coach what he would prefer a handfull of district, regional or finalist trophies or just one state championships trophy, I bet he would take that state title anyday of the week. Strength of opponents are what most if not all polls take into consideration when determining rankings.
I say this district is pretty tough considering the teams, their
records and what they bring to the table. This is a great time to be a high school football fan in Texas.

Friday will be Mitchell's 18th game as head coach for Sealy. Compare that number to our rivals. He has lost numerous assistants for whatever reason and faced the task of replacing starters on both sides of the ball. There are many boys who decided not to play, again for what ever reason. You had the #5 problem as well other inside issues (that all teams have). You had fewer overall students wanting to join the program. I think Mitchell and staff are doing the best they can with what they have
It's the schools that have not faced what the Tigers have in the past 5 years that should be concerned about success and failure. If you look at the numbers from last year 7-4 with a play-off visit.
This year 3-3 not bad for a new program. Even TJ Mills had a rough begining and finished in the recored books. I say watch the
boys on the field and sidelines, they never give up and that is how champions are made. Go Tigers and never let up.

Just don't cry and wine too much when your a-- is beaten by a RED BIRD. Suck it up,Mitchel is a long way from being Sealys saving grace. Might go ahead and start the search for a new coach now if winning is what you want. If he had something to work with,it may be different.

This game like every game in this district will be a good one. Let the boys play Friday night and we will find out who comes out on top. Too many people are talking smack about Sealy. There is still plenty of football to be played before we know who makes the playoffs from this district. I don't think you can count Sealy out this early on, or for that matter, you can't count any other team in the district out.

Mitchell has done a good job in the short time he has been in Sealy and I have no doubt the Tigers will be focused and fired up come Friday.

They seem to only brag about one player and the other 10 who have worked their tails off without attitude must only be ornamentals. Well most teams have more than one player on a team and in Columbus all the team players count. Not going to knock any program hope both teams have a good game, but with Columbus "Team" play and Columbus attitude Columbus will win this one. By the way Teetle, looks like your post is getting you closer to pre-med hope you can give us all a reading on Downey's bhind.

I don't think Downey is our team. He is a good player but does not make this team what it is. I don't think your D will be able to stop him but if it does we have more than enough capable receivers and a good qb to burn you with the pass. Also, watch the "team" play of our defense and you will see that Sealy really doesn't have a star player. Thanks for the try but Sealy wins this one is a tough fought game.

Watcher, you mis-spelled bhind. Teetle spells it bee-hind!

Granted, #5 has garnered most of the attention by posters partly because of the disciplinary actions and partly because he is an explosive running back. With that said, there are 10 other players on offense as well as a solid defense along with backups on both sides of the ball that play well as a TEAM.

To suggest that Sealy does not play as a team because posters talk about one player more than others is a stretch.

Sealy - the train is about to role...Not sure what to believe just yet, just passing along the info...Like Talk to the Paw Said, it will all be settled on Friday and these posters like Bambi spotter should just relax and take some Ritalin.

With as much rain as the field received in the last 24 hours it will be a running game for sure. The field has a good crown, however the sidelines look to be mud by the end of the first quarter. Don't know about the games tonight. Not sure if they will be played on the big field or practice. Since the practice field has limited markings my guess is the big field. Wet and cool, Texas football at it's best.

Most successful football teams have two key components:
#1- a solid defense.
#2-a solid rushing attack.

Sealy defense is the strength of this team. They definitely play as a team. With Downey back, their rushing game is much better. With their solid rushing attack, the passing game opens up.
With a solid team effort, Sealy will have no problem with the red birds.

OldBison75
10-16-2008, 10:12 AM
Let me point out to those that are saying that Sealy is a one man team that they are wrong. Sealy played Navasota without Downey and even though they lost 35-0, every player on the field for Sealy played hard and they were not that bad. They made mistakes and had trouble with the Rattler passing game, but overall gave tremendous effort and played every down hard. I saw a team that was trying to overcome some internal problems, but not a person on the field or the sidelines was giving the appearance of giving up. If the internal problems have settled, and Downey is back to add that spark of speed to the offense, Sealy can go on a roll in a hurry. They have the athletes and attitude to be winners from here on out. I have a feeling this might be the week they start to come back.

There is no doubt that this will be a hard fought game and both teams will play their hearts out. In this one I think it will come down to special teams. If Columbus will not allow any big returns the game should be in their favor. Im going Columbus by 3 because of Strauss's leg.

Watcher
10-16-2008, 09:23 PM
If everybody would read into my post as written, I said the other 10 players worked their tails off without attitude. It seemed the Sealy posters where giving all the credit to one player, but take it as you will. As far as watcheverything's post, the only thing pitiful around is you and your boyfriend. To bad mouth any program means that both you and your boyfriend must only break suction long enough to pull your flutes out from your days of glory and toot your own horns. You probably rate dancing with the stars like you do football games. Go Cards!!!

Sealy has an outstanding 8th grade squad. Tandem running backs who seldom get stopped and usually break it for big gains
or TD's. Fun to watch. The team as a whole is pretty solid with few mistakes.

So your idea of "Talking 3a Football" is how one team is going to get blown out or should get blown out or something like that. How about include some reasoning, stats, or something to support your "FOOTBALL TALK". Then maybe I can respect your opinion!

I believe he was the the one that basically called me an idiot when I picked WOS over Giddings last year. We all know how that turned out.

As for my opinion, I stated before...I think the Red Birds win this one. They are better than they are being given credit for. I could be wrong...but hope the Red Birds prove me right.

I am really not that bad guys. And no IHSTANG, I didn't ever call you that, and definetely didn't argue with anyone that said we would lose to WOS. First of all, they are a great program year in and year out. Second that game was extremely close by the way, you act as though it wasn't, and we were w/o brock.

My opinion on columbus is just that. But if you want to know what my opinion is based on, I will tell you. Strength of schedule. I don't feel that columbus has played anyone yet, and no neither has smithville, and that was even a close game. This week will be the first week all year that columbus and smithville have played quality opponents, and in my OPINION it is very likely that they will both lose.

No hard feeling meant really, I am not on here calling anyone idiots for any reason or trying to cause much trouble. Just letting out some info and discussing football. We have a tough district, I don't feel that the last place team in this district will be w/o a victory, so smithville is likely to sneak up on somebody, I hope it isn't the buffalos.

Buffy,your pants must be way too tight. Do you not have a memory. Have you forgotten about Needville,Smithville and Yoakum. They are all really good teams that Columbus beat. You need to forget about Mitchel resurrecting Sealy from the curb side. Just cause he says its so darn sure does not make it so. When all of your eggs are in one basket,you are at HIGH risk of the RED BIRDS spilling ALL of your eggs and making you cry. That is why I said earlier,don't forget the surrender flags. They can wipe the tears away them also. Good luck Buffy. You will surely need it. THE BIG RED MACHINE WILL WALK ALL OVER THE TIGERETTES BY 14.

Hey Deerspotter, have you seen the Tigerettes. Now those girls can kick, and run and have some pretty good moves, but I think you were referring to the Tigers. Good news is they are pretty good themselves. Try not to have that deer in the headlights look tonight when the Tigers come your way.

LOL. Spotter you are a funny guy. I don't get this whole eggs in a basket thing. Just wait till tonight, when your beloved birds are eating crow and you look like a fool. Columbus has played nobody. Sealy hasn't played the hardest schedule but we have played some very talented teams. I think Columbus is going to be the pretender of this distirct loosing to Sealy, Giddngs, Bellville and La Grange.

We were told scrimmages don't mean anything. Columbus did give Needville their only loss.

Bellville & Needville did play in a scrimmage, I was there. Bellville's first team had something like a 4-1 advantage over the Jays.

Columbus defeated Neddville 21-0 in the regular season. I would think you would know this, since you follow Needville. :confused:

With that said, yes, I follow Needville, but I also work, am a home owner w/ a bit of property to maintain, a new father, and in the process of going overseas for work...so....there are going to be things I may miss.....so your smartass attempt to be funny was not warranted. Have a nice day.

Not intended to be my friend, I actually thought you was jacking with me (You usually post the Needville scores). I initially brought this up because someone posted that Columbus hadn't played anybody. Sounds like you have a lot going on, good luck with the job overseas. Where are you going? It will be tough if you have to be away from your family. Best of luck! :)

If Columbus football team gets a fired up as the Columbus posters on this board, Sealy better watch out. It is interesting that most posters picking Sealy are not from Sealy. Maybe that tells you something like other teams respect Sealy regardless of the record they have. Columbus is big and fast. Sealy has good skill people and something to prove to those that are counting them out. Columbus has a chance to go undefeated. Sealy has a chance to get back in the district race for the championship. The results--Sealy will play hard for 48 minutes, Columbus will play hard for 48 minutes. One turnover will make the differnce and I think the Sealy pass defense could be the difference and get that turnover. I just have a felling that Sealy will find a way to win this game, but either team could be a factor later in the year, or both.

Yeah...I saw that and then it was said it was a scrimmage, and I was thinking (in this particular instance) "no...it was a pre-district game". Saw Columbus last year, and read what they did to the Jays this year. Columbus is being taken too lightly in their new district if you ask me. I wish the Red Birds well!! As far as my overseas job...headed to Al Asad AB in Iraq. It will be hard being away from the family, but it will benefit us financially in a big way. Have a good one amigo.
