Bowling Green 24 Warren Central 0

Final

[DragonFire]

The gap is that big. Purples will win 3 straight titles in 5A. They've just separated from the pack.

[PurpleHaze]

Junior QB Devin Hayes threw two TD passes, 15 yds to junior RB Blue Tisdale, and 23 yds to All-State junior WR Necarius Fant. Tisdale also scored on a 38 yd run. Soph K Hunter Hanks booted all three PATs and a 21 yd FG. The Purples scored once in each quarter.

 

The BGHS defense has grown from a unit with only one starter returning from last year's team and a somewhat unknown quantity into a unit that almost completely shut down the vaunted Dragon rushing machine and rendered three year starting QB Michael Bush ineffective in passing. Unreal. The Purples made the big plays when they had to and allowed the Dragons into the Red Zone only once all game.

 

I'm certainly not saying this because I'm rubbing salt into a wound. I'm saying it because it is fact and I'm still shaking my head. I pictured a super tight ball game decided by the team with the last posession. I have a sneaking suspicion that we will meet again in the playoffs as we did last year.

 

The Purples will host another county rival, Greenwood, for Homecoming and to sew up the 5A District

Two race for 2012 next week. Happy Homecoming!

Congratulations Purples! Looking forward to a great weekend of football next weekend in Bowling Green - Homecoming at BGHS on Friday and then WKU on Saturday.

I've been saying this all year. The gap in 5A is MUCH wider than any other class.

[2nd&short]

Wider than 6A with Trinity?

Two words...John Hardin.

yea yea

[Cynical]

Two words...John Hardin.

 

That's about as many words as the JH fans got in before it was 24-0 last year. After the debacle last year, JH is going to thave to prove it's on BG level in a game before anyone really believes they can compete with the Purples.

Warren Central has been shut out 40 times in school history - 8 of them have been by Bowling Green, including the last three and four of the last five times it has happened. Hopkinsville doing it 10 years ago is the last time a team besides BG did it. The Dragons are well acquainted with the dominating "Jungle D" defense that Bowling Green employs.

As a follower of John Hardin, let me just tell you that Bowling Green should and will beat John Hardin as bad as they want to.... At least a 35+ point victory.

There may be a couple of teams from the other side of the platoff bracket that think differently.

Assuming they get there.

You'll get the same reaction from the western supporters now that the eastern supporters gave us when Highlands, CovCath, LexCath, etc. roamed the other side of the bracket in the previous alignment. There is no reason to believe that anyone on that side poses a challenge.
