The 6-4 St. Xavier tigers travel to Fern Creek in a first round playoff matchup. Who wins and why?

X rolls. I look for them to set the tone for a strong playoff run with this game, before meeting Super District foes!

X wins. Don't know much about Fern Creek this year, but Fern Creek hasn't challenged X since the mid-90s. Offensively, I believe there will be a heavy dose of Walker and Davis. I believe the X defense will cover over there performance from this past Friday and handle whatever Fern Creek decides to throw at them.

 

Roll Tigers!

Running clock by half? X wants Male again.

Should be different with walker playing.

Let's go Tigers it's a new season and the payback tour is about to begin!

Revenge Tour!

 

On a side note, I remember when I went to the St. X youth football camp back in '96 or '97 and at the end of one of days we watched the highlight tape from the previous season. One of the highlights was from the St. X/Fern Creek game and the song that went with the highlights was The Offspring - Keep 'em Seperated. To this day I always think of that song when these two teams play each other and it gets me fired up!

Tigers take care of business and leave the Creek without any water to live on. St. X Tigers by 35. March on to Round Two and a much anticipated rematch with the Male Bulldogs . . .! Tigers must take care of business this Friday for the rematch to even occur! Start early, hittem hard and play smart . . . St. X Tigers Roll . . .

St. Xavier 38-7.

Elite District sweeps.

Is Fern Creek still a Wing T team?
