nacdragon07 Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Nac got their first win of the season against a previously undefeated Whitehouse team. Now we look to go 2-0 as we travel to Pine Tree to take on the Pirates who lost to their district opener to Marshall. I’m not sure what’s going on with the Pirates but hopefully we can come out 2-0 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavchamp Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Nac should win this. Pirates have a running back that can be explosive (Robinson I believe). If Nac can contain him….. your chances are good. But he can break one loose in a hurry. PTs passing game is shaky. Their WRs struggle to catch some great passes. I think the Pirates are rotating two QBs too. PT stacked in box and dared us to throw the ball. We struggled at times with all the bodies in the middle… but we wore them down in the second half. Nac should be 2-0 next week. And that’s really REALLY big. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forced turnovers the only thing is we didn’t score off of them except one time. We left at least 14 points on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LetsGoEagles Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 We ran for 400+ against WH in a scrimmage. They cannot stop the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nacwagons Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Nac (1-0) and Pine Tree (0-1) hook up on Friday in Longview. Pine Tree coming off a loss to Marshall 36-7 Nac coming off a homecoming win over previously unbeaten Whitehouse 34-23-Nac Scored 14 Points and took a safety in the last 2 minutes of the game. Nac found a consistent bruising running game, played great defense and didn't turn the ball over, while forcing 5 turnovers. Nac has a 25-8 record all time against the Pirates, but Pine Tree has won 3 straight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav01 Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 The Rb from PT is a Marshall transfer. Jackie Robinsons kid. If Marshall can start hanging on to our own kids we'd be in good shape. Most of what we've lost are making impacts at other locations. PT, Hallsville, Henderson Carthage( about 4). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 What a HUGE win for NAC last week. Amazing what happens when things come together, a good game plan, and the other team's disrespect. WH had been rolling, Didn't see that coming. Still, PT can play, they just make mistakes at the wrong time. Kilgore only beat then 20-14. Maybe NAC is on a roll . . . I'll go with NAC though.

Mavchamp Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Nac cannot overlook PT...... Pine Tree has some players. A very good running back. And their defense isn't lousy. Nac should win this. But given the inconsistency of Nac..... a PT win wouldn't be shocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomlandry Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Good for Nac. I am still happy they beat WH. When you are overconfident thats what happens WH. As for us, we are not that great. Our RB is very skilled but he has to create largely on his own and with poor line play. We have some dumb penalties too. I say Nac wins but will be close than people may think.

Nacwagons Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Looks like Nac will get its pass catching tight end(hurt is in scrimmage) and starting defensive tackle(hurt against Lufkin) back for this game. A 2-0 start for Nac in district would be huge in fighting for the 3-4 spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nacwagons Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 28-7 PT at the half. so Nac has gone back to the offense and the QB that led them to an 0-4 non-district record. tunovers on our side of the 50 and penalties keeping pine tree drives alive after they were stopped. Pine Tree is running well and has thrown to 1 WR so far. Nacs defense has spent a lot time on the field thanks to the turnover and kickoff that we decided to let bounce around the field. horrible response for the dragons after a great win last week. Nac gets the ball to start the second half so we will se quickly if this gets out of hand it Nac can get back in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomlandry Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Happy for my Pirates. A great game and we were multiple in how we attacked on offense and did a great job defensively. Great energy at Pirate Stadium and our boys came out swinging and clearly wanted the game. Whatever happened in the locker room and practice this last week created a great gameplan and motivated Pirates. We are not out of the Pines yet. We still have WH and have to go to the wasteland that is WH. They will home cook and play hard. We must be ready. A win there gets us in the drivers seat for a playoff birth and puts WH in the dog house. I am calling a loss to Hallsville and Texas High. This puts us in I believe fourth. We may be out of the cellar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iRockNewbzz Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Guess this shows Nac's last weeks win vs Whitehouse was a fluke, hence kicking rocks this week. Good job PT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
