None!

 

Lasalle. They are very talented this year.

The difference between the football in the states overall is not that different.

 

A quick check of the results of 2013 (using the KHSAA Riherd's scoreboard), you will find that the results were KY 13 OH 12 in games played between the two states. This year so far, it is Ohio 8 KY 2, but the season is young.

 

Yes, the Ohio DI (Moeller's division) school are better that KY Class 4A (CovCath's class) schools in general, since the sizes of the schools are not same. However, the states as a whole were not very different in head to head macthups last year.

 

I also contend that interstate matchups mean more to Ohio teams than KY teams because of the Harbin system where every game matters a lot more than it does for KY schools. KY schools can use the interstate games to learn about their weaknesses (just like any non-district game) while the same is true for Ohio schools. However, winning is far more important to the Ohio schools in respect to their playoff chances. In the case listed here (Moeller vs CovCath) a win by CC would have been more harmful to Moeller's playoff chances that the loss to Moeller is to CovCath's playoff chances.

 

To the original question of "Does Moeller's rout of CovCath mean anything?", I would say, 1) Moeller is in a much stronger Harbin position than they would have been by beating a team that will win fewer games than CovCath (one of Moeller's goals in scheduling CC) and 2) CovCath had a lot exposed that they need to work on and may be a better team when district play begins as a result. Does it mean they will beat Highlands and win the district, that remains to be seen on September 26.

IMOP, I think Cov Cath played ok. They never gave up. It easily could've been 39-21. But they never could convert when they had the chances. THis was different than prior years. Cov Cath competed ok. And weren't "blown" out, at least physically. I think Cov Cath coaches can take some positives out of this game and it showed them what they need to work on. You get more out of playing Moeller than killing Boone Co and Dixie.

Moeller is bigger than Cov Cath in every way: school size, team size, player size...

Please tell me that's just the camera angle!

Doesn't mean a thing. CovCath stepped up and played the heavyweight and took one on the chin- no different than any other NKY team would have (yes, SK and FTH included).

 

I am still waiting on someone to post the SK schedule for the yr, I am curious to see what your definition of stepping up and who this heavyweight is you speak of

SKs opponents have not won a game yet....so we know nothing about the national power in Independence.

Be nice, I was just curious as to why the SK schedule has not been posted on this site...I can find it and get it but I want one of their super fans to post it so we can take a peek at it.

 

Without seeing it, it makes me wonder if they are embarrassed by their scheduling or something

Negative. They were that big.

LaSalle is D2 Reg 6 - 2014 La Salle Lancers Football Results / Schedule

 

Ohio went to 7 Divisions last year breaking up D1, D1 went from 121 schools to 72. This decrease pushed several D1 schools to D2, Lasalle was one of them.

 

Lasalle has 513 Boys in grades 9-11

 

According to '13-'14 enrollment #'s, CCH has 445 boys in grades 9-11 that would classify them D2 in Ohio and Highlands has 388 boys in 9-11 and would be classified as D3. With that said, Neither should be giving Moeller a game. And from what I read on here, CCH easily could have scored 21 pts or more. How could that be I ask? And in the past, these two NKY schools have had success against Ohio's best and talented teams.

 

To answer the thread question, No!

I was browsing in another thread and came across this. Someone aske3d about how many 6A schools SK plays. Hope this helps.

Way better is a bit of a stretch. Way better than the big NKY schools. Yes! But way better than the best teams in ky is not always true. People around here see CC and HHS play the Cincy big schools and take that stance. I would say look back at the games that those two have played in over the years. (Except recently when Moe has been on another planet, even compared to all other Ohio teams) and tell me they can't play with them. And keep in mind that HHS and CC are two divisions below the schools the you feel represent "Ohio football". Their top teams are very good and they have more "top teams" in Ohio. I would agree with that. But their best against our best is not way better. Some years when there are super teams like Moe has this year and the past two, but not all the time. Trinity, St X, and HHS has shown they can play with them and beat them. Heck, not too long ago HHS beat Cincy St X when they were top 10 in the country. Compare apples to apples and there isn't that much difference...other than they have more good teams.

 

Did Trinity not win the mythical national high school championship a couple years ago?

Looky there....a new member with the word "Colonel" in their username. Welcome onto BGP, and here's to hoping you're a Colonel fan of the Park Hills blue variety.

 

To answer your question, back in '11 Trinity was ranked #1 in the country at the end of the season in several different polls - Rivals High Top 100, Sports Illustrated Power Rankings, Scout.com Top 50, PrepNation.com, and by Massey's computer rankings. I believe Don Bosco was #1 that year in most all of the other polls of note. However, I don't believe Trinity has ever won the USA Today National Prep Poll, which generally is accepted to determine the "High School Football National Championship" - they went with Don Bosco that year.

 

Interesting side note, Moeller has the fourth most National Championship awards of any school in the country with five: 1976, 1977, 1979, 1980, 1982.

The only thing this win tells me is that Moeller is, as usual, crazy good. I don't respect CovCath any less after this loss. Glad they came out of there with no injuries.

It means that Big Moe gets a big goose egg worth of Harbin Pts for this blowout...

 

Did nothing to prepare them for their grueling run to the finals.

 

For CovCath it means nothing other than they are not in the same league of one of OH best, nothing more and nothing less.

 

Sorry, but wrong. Moeller will get points for every game Cov.Cath wins the rest of the season. They will not be full compliment because of the Division/Class difference, so I can assure you the people at Big Moe want to see the Colonels win as many as they can.
