No validity there. Its all about match ups buddy.

I want to know what justification you have for saying X can't beat Elder.

Yeah all you do is run the ball. Elder would smash X..

Smash? :lol: Since this game won't happen and can only be justified through mutual schedules lets get off this topic and just hope your birds can pull out the win. Good luck :lol: Beside's T no team has stopped X from putting up points.

That's nice, and I want to know what justification you have for saying X would beat Elder.

 

BTW, never said they can't beat Elder. Anyone can be beat. Except T.

T can be beat. Cincy X laid the blue-print. But I think Elder gives up too many points to win against Lou X.

 

For I am curious. Could you rank the top 7 teams in Ohio then Cincy b/c im not too up to date on Ohio. Also side note Highlands is not the 2nd best team in Ky.

to suggest that Highlands is not the second best team is ridiculous. If we're talking about this season alone, you could make an argument for Bowling Green. But beyond that, it's no question. And of course, we know which program has the overall winningest history in the state.

OF course were talking about this season.

No actually if you look at the original post it dates back some 5 plus years as a whole.

No actually if you look at the original post it dates back some 5 plus years as a whole. That is based on HHS improvement of talent to play the big boys from Ohio and be able to win some of these games. Not just this year.

While Lakota West is rated #2 because they are undefeated, there are very few people in Greater Cincinnati that think Lakota West is better than St. X, Moeller or Elder. The schedules the GCL teams play are MUCH tougher than what Lakota West plays. We will see how they do this week against Colerain. That game will tell us a lot about Lakota West.

As a Highlands grad and fan who now lives in Cincinnati, I can tell you the game is more about pride for Highlands and Harbin points for Elder. Highlands gets little respect from the big Cincinnati schools. Until recently, the lack of respect was earned because Highlands could not beat them. Actually, by playing them, Dale Mueller realized the only way he could take the Highlands program to the next level was by having no players playing both ways. You simply cannot beat these types of schools with players going both ways. They just wear you down and physically punish you in the second half of games. Recently, Highlands has held its own against the Cincy schools. I think Elder should be a 10 point favorite this year (and I have seen both teams play) but I will not be shocked if Highlands plays them very tough or even beats Elder. Highlands has been able to rest with basically 3 byes the last three weeks while Elder has played an incredibly hard schedule. It will be interesting to see how Highlands reacts to playing a good team for the first time in a month.

 

For Elder, this game is huge as it means a ton of Harbin points. Because Highlands will ALWAYS win a lot of games, the GCL teams all want to play them because they get a lot of Harbin points if they beat Highlands. Frankly, this is just another game for Elder. If you ask the Elder faithful, Highlands is no better than the 6th or 7th best team they will play this year. Highlands fans will not want to hear that (and I am one of them) but that is just the truth.
