Re: PNG vs. Barbers Hill
Ok, I'm ready to make my prediction. It appears that BH has 9 returning starters with 5 on offense and 4 on defense. They too will be replacing their QB this season. They went 3-6 last year with those 3 wins coming over Kingwood Park, Goose Creek Memorial, and Galena Park. I will say that those 3 wins appear to be pretty lop-sided. They scored an average of 26.6 pts a game and allowed 24.4 pnts a game. But if you ask me, their lop-sided victories padded the points per game stats. Also, that 3-6 record came with an experienced QB under center.
With that being said, I don't see where BH has made many, if any improvements over last season. Whereas, PN-G has made drastic changes to coaching personnel, and it has definitely been for the better. These coaches put our players in the right position to make the plays. Just by watching practices and scrimmages, PN-G seems to have done a complete 180 in terms of the direction of the football program.
I think BH is athletic enough to get a couple of TD's but not talented enough to stop the wide open offense of PN-G.
Therefore, my prediction for the game will be:
PN-G - 38
BH - 14
