Nacwagons Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 This post was recognized by RETIREDFAN1! Nacwagons was awarded the badge 'Great Content' and 5 points. No reason to put a poll up we all know what is going to happen on Friday Night. What looked like a promising season for the Dragons fell apart very fast with lots of turnovers and injuries taking away what little depth we have. Nac has lost 6 starters for the year 4 on defense. JV team was down to 16 players last week due to call ups to fill the varsity holes and grades. We will see if Nac moves players around and plays some of the younger players on varsity for the rest of the year for experience. Nac. is 11-25 lifetime against Texas High, the last 2 meetings have been close until halftime, last year seeing TH pull away in the 3rd Qtr. Friday is Senior Night in Nac as it is our last home game before we finish this dreadful season on the road in Marshall. We have our bye week the last week of the season and we have started airing up the basketballs!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we have to start throwing every down is when the game has gotten away from us. The game against Whitehouse we were 70% run until our starting running back was lost for the year with a torn MCL. Up until that game we were 60% pass from the spread formation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nacwagons Posted October 19, 2022 Author Share Posted October 19, 2022 I also think in high school you have to have talent on offense to score points, no matter how good your defense is you will hit that offense that is going to score on you. Without an offense your defense gets worn down. Offense wins games in high school and without one you wont have the chance to get to the defense wins championships part.

A run heavy offense will slow the game down and give the defense a chance to breathe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly Nac needs and deserves a win lol. The Dragons play hard and difficult seeing teams like that not get any glory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nacdragon07 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Up until last week Nac has played Texas high closer than any other team in the district for the past two years. I want to play spoiler and end their district winning streak. So many things have to go Nac’s way for that to happen. It’s not impossible but it’s very difficult to beat a team this good. You need to play mistake free football and hope your opponent has an off night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nac streams their home games on you tube, search Nac football. There will be no commentary, scoreboard or clock just straight game footage. you will only know the score, qtr. and down from the PA announcer that you can hear on the broadcast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bordertown Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Texas High 16 Nacogdoches 13 H Tiger line needs to tighten up their blocking. Too many TFLs. Need to put a spy on Nac QB. He has made several long runs. Never underestimate your opponent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
