The Birds will be fine on Friday. The Covington Catholic offense isn't nearly as explosive as the Highlands offense. Birds by at least 21.

 

Yes, but the offenses don't play eachother and the Colonels Defense is their best in quite a few years. Everyone on the fields absolutely flies to the ball.

 

Haven't seen Highlands play, so can't comment secifically. Having seen the Colonels both live and on video, I will be surprised if the Birds are able to put up big numbers. Barring a number of turnovers, I see a low-scoring affair. Who wins is a toss-up.

I know this is off topic, but realistically speaking, what are the chances this game is a sellout? After reading many of the comments, I am a little concerned. I realize many think this game is the equivalent of the second coming, but I do want to secure a seat for this barn burner. I honestly can't remember the last time the CCH/Highlands matchup was a complete sellout.

The playoff matchup was last year.

Turnovers will be the key to the game. Neither kicker has the leg strength of past standouts Weinel and Talkers so both squads should be able to create field position with the return games. I'm thinking HHS by 10-14... HHS 38 CovCath 28.

Im in your boat I can't get there till Friday around 530 at the earliest. If someone can just update if tix are available on game day that would help a lot.

I will predict the score

 

45-28 Highlands

nm:madman:

It's going to storm throughout the game. CovCath's lack of a running game is going to hurt them. I don't care how many dry footballs they put into play, the ball and field will still be slick. Highlands running game leads the way 31-17.

The rain is coming in Friday night for game. The team that controls the line of scrimmage should do well in this game. I give the edge to Coach Turner & Dill to have boys ready. Birds 35- Cov Cath 21

Wow...I am so impressed...a preview of a great game..................and a weather report too! :clap:

A little Birdy just told me that the Highlands kids have a huge trend going on right now on Twitter #BeatColonels.

 

Apparently a CovCath player started one himself and it was somethingdirtyuseyourimaginationhere@Highlands. Administration apparently is handing out some major punishments right now. Colonels may be a little shortfooted errrrrr shorthanded.

 

Also, many cell phones of Sr's were confiscated for the week.

Thanks for the update, Geraldo.

I'm taking CCH in a close one.

What time is the rain coming?
