Vandalman Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Okay, I'll start it. Lindale is off to a good start this year. Whooping up on the CHill and coming close with Carthage tonight. Van lost a bunch of seniors last year but seems to have reloaded nicely. We did return Thomas in the backfield and also one of the best kickers in East Texas. Anyone that's ever been to a Lindale/Van game knows it can get crazy. So, who you got and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firstandgoal Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 huge rivalry game this week. I think it could go either way, but Lindale will be fired up after the beating we took last year. Â I thought Van was going to be down this year, but they seem to be playing well so far. Anxious to see how this game goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakeelee Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 I'm excited about this one. Should be a really good game. Van is looking pretty dang good so far and I'm really impressed with how Lindale is playing. Could go either way but I'm taking Lindale of course lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmoakyBandito Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Surratt said after the game about how improved Lindale was this season. Was really impressed with yalls corner backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakeelee Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Yea they are looking good. Not so much in the first half but they pulled it together in the 2nd. I think Carthage will have another deep run this year. Very well rounded team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vandalman Posted September 5, 2015 Author Share Posted September 5, 2015 This really should be a good game. Of course I'm picking my Vandals...in a close one. According to my schedule this is Van's homecoming which adds an incentive for both teams. Nothing better than winning your homecoming game, except spoiling someone elses lol. Seriously though, I figure the stadium will be PACKED, so better get there early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaleFootball Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 I'm picking Lindale. However, the Lindale - Van game has always been my favorite series and with it being Van's Homecoming, it will be close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

easttexaschamp Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 With all the graduation Van had and all the returners lindale had, Lindale should walk away in this one. Lindale by 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAIT956 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Regarding the kickers for each team, sorry I am not familiar with either. Are you referencing punters or place kickers, or both. Please expand on this. I'm an old ex- kicker, both types, and love to watch this facet of the game. For punters, the expectations are for distance, hang time and accuracy. For placekickers. it is distance and accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middle ways down on this page http://etsn.fm/2015-etsn-fm-preseason-east-texas-football-super-team/ tells a little about him. Not sure on the Lindale side, but seems like last year they had a really good placekicker and punter if I'm remembering correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakeelee Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Yea Lindale's Jordan Lawless is their place kicker and punter and he's pretty dang good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ringside Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I will go with Lindale again. Over the years they have had Van's number, at least when the talent was somewhat close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vandalman Posted September 9, 2015 Author Share Posted September 9, 2015 Well, looks like everyone has us as the underdogs. That doesn't really surprise me. Lindale is obviously much improved this year and off to a great start. This game will definitely be a test for Van. I think it will be close. Van by 3. Looking forward to the game! Come on Friday!

AreaScout Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Lindale wins. Van is way too undisciplined. This game may yield more penalty yards than production yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
