Southwestern vs. Harlan County Predictions

"Should have a thread asking how many passes will HC attempt. I will start it,my answer is "2"" Agreed....and there is a very good possibility both will be for scores. -

Harlan County in a hard fought close one. -
We just let the bid go a couple of weeks ago. Construction should begin very soon. I'll try to keep you updated. I seriously doubt it will be ready even for a late game. The Baseball/Softball/Tennis complex in nearing completion. I have never seen anything like it in Ky.

I gotta laugh and 3-5 ranked ahead of Harlan County. I'll ask for Highlands comments on this...

Things should go well for him....He is a solid recruiter...lol

Towles played the entire game except for the last possession. One thing that is not hurt is his arm...lol. Looked like he was moving fairly well. In the grasp a couple of times and pulled loose. Like his QB coach very hard to bring down. BIG TIME Prospect.

Congrats to the Birds. To answer an earlier question HC will stay in 5A. Now to the game. After we finally settled in (at 14-0 with 8 minutes left in 1st) HC played well the rest of the first half. McMallian took one 72 yards to pull the score to 14-6. HC had the ball in the red zone two other times including a 4th and 6 inches on the 3 we couldn't convert. HC amassed 206 yards rushing in the first half. The bird defense bent but only broke once. The opening drive in the second half Highlands took it 55 yards right down our throats. HC hung tough for a while then the track meet broke out. Some observations: Personally I thought we could block Highlands and we did pretty well in the first half, but not so well in the second. The HHS is as fast as advertised and handles agressive blocking very well. Linebackers fly to the football. I also thought we would be able to put pressure on Towles and we did but not the kind of pressure we have been able to bring earlier....that said I think HHS blocked us better than I expected. When we got there we just had a hard time finishing off Towles. HC simply ran into a better team. No excuses and honestly no suprise HHS outplayed us. That's what they generally do. Finally I got to talk to several HHS fans throughout the night. Very polite, respectful, and courteous. EXTREME class act. Something I noticed after the game was in hand the PA announcer said "Let's hear it for our Bears, we're proud of them", looked over and several Highlands fans were applauding...Outstanding sportsmanship. Go get #20 Birds....This HC fan will be pulling for you. :notworthy:

Weather is very brisk and overcast. I looked at the river and it had no noticable change in color meaning rainfall was fairly insignificant. I doubt there is any significant change in field conditions, should be good for grass. As for eating...Shiloh's in London just off exit 41 is the best resturant on the path. That will leave you about 90 minutes from the field. El Charrito in Harlan is the best close. No alcohol served in Harlan YET. Just passed. Can't really think of anything in between. If it's me....the call is Shiloh. Give you time to digest. Travel Safe my Friends.

Birds always bring their A game. This has been an awsome week to exchance post with you guys and get to know you and your program better. A lot of pre-conceived notions about you and your program have been dispelled in my mind. You guys have shown nothing but class and respect. Safe travels....I almost hate that the posting is over...lol.
