All Play No Work Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Newport "travels" to their Home field and their own locker room to take on the "home-standing" Breds who will arrive on a bus dressed for the game. Bizarre, but what the heck it is a nice field. So Newport has played a lot better lately with close losses to decent teams. NewCath turning it up with wins over Campbell Co. and Beechwood. Let down possible? Can Newport score on the Breds D? Is Newport's improving D able to stop the herd of T-breds? Who wins?
Einstein70 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 Whats that mean (kind of) is it a prediction thread or what.

That's Pat Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 NCC-80 N-13 Just kidding!!! I hope that the Breds overlook this much improved Newport Wildcat team. It is going to be a physical contest. If Newport can utilize Wilfong and Billy "The Hitman" Herald in thier new power off attack and keep the ball from from NCC, I really believe the "old red and Black" is going to win this game.

NCC06 Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 NCC 40 Newport-3 Ncc defense is still very good they just ran into a good team in beechwood last week that could score on them(and they gave them a bunch of short fields)... Newport will not be able to run the ball against the breds so that means they have to throw it which they didnt do very well in the first game... Improved Newport defense or not it really does not matter the NCC offense is really clicking now and have the no huddle working really good..Although it seemed last week that it was taking a real long time to get the plays in from the sideline

N-23 NCC-20[/quote'] you make some good points about the wildcats improvement. I will pick NCC 41-0. A team does not win State Championships by over looking opponents. This is the first hurdle toward a third ring.:devil:

As far as Newport throwing the ball I think that Wilson ,a senior is back at Q'back instead of the soph who played that position in the first game , so Newport's passing game might be a bit better .

As far as Newport throwing the ball I think that Wilson ,a senior is back at Q'back instead of the soph who played that position in the first game , so Newport's passing game might be a bit better . Newport has made the change at QB and is playing better on offense and that has helped the defense. The first game was sort of strange. I don't think NCC played very well except for about a 10 minute stretch in the second quarter when Newport fell apart. Other than that neither team did much and the second half was quite frankly very boring.

What do you think of the possiblity of a live thoroughbred being at the game Friday night as a mascot to support the breds.

NCC Proud Papa Posted November 4, 2007 Posted November 4, 2007 You personally would have to bring a pooper-scooper because of the turf. That could be arranged, do you think it would be permitted to bring one. I guess we should contact the school. I would really like to bring one down. I think they would love the game

I would really like to bring one down. I think they would love the game I don't know some horses would be okay, some wouldn't. If it is a true t-bred racehorse they are kind of high-strung unless it is some old 4000 gelded claimer from River Downs. What if it gets loose? You going to be able to gather the reins up with 2000 people yelling?

You going to be able to gather the reins up with 2000 people yelling? It certainly would'nt be an old 4000 claimer from RD. We would :dancingpabe able to keep the horse secured. There is medicine to calm them down. Just a thought one of the Dad's has racehorses, just a thought. Could get the boys pretty fired up.
