Catholic forces a Highlands punt for the first time in the last 3 games against the Bluebirds. Maybe the Birds aren't as good as they've been the last couple years :lol:

3rd & 4 coming up for LexCath deep in its own territory. 3:07 left in the half.

Timeout first.

Highlands D forces the 3 and out. Not letting the Knights back in the game.

Highlands to take over at its own 42. About 2:50 left in the half.

Kendall fumbles & LexCath recovers. Big play.

Andy Hickey forces the fumble on the Birds run, Knights finally get a bounce their way and recover it. Huge play for Knights D, 2 straight stops.

 

Did not like the playcalls at all for the Knights on this drive however.

I haven't seen Jones' name mentioned. Is he getting carries or touches?

3 and out for the Knights. Last play would have gone for 6 if Ryan had been able to hit Ogbogu on the pass.

He had success on the opening couple of drives, Knights have gone away from the run lately however

Highlands missed the 48 yard field with 3 seconds left.

 

Knights show why you should take the knee in the situation they were in right there. Ball popped out of Jones hands on the run to end the half but luckily was right to a LexCath lineman. Not worth the risk there.

A workmanlike first half. Everyone having trouble holding onto the ball. Second half should be fun.

Per Mike Fields, Highlands with 308 yards of offense. Hoge threw for 160 & ran for 81.

I hate taking a knee when there is time on the clock in the first half. Especially when you are losing and the other team gets the ball to start the third quarter.

Defense did a lot better after the first 3 drives. Made the Bluebirds earn the 4th TD (two 3rd down conversions). Also prevented scores on the last 3 drives of the half.

 

On Offense the Knights have had success in the air when they have protected Reese Ryan. Rushing game is non-existent for the first game all season. Game could be a lot different if they had finished the drive that ended with the INT on the 5.

 

If the Knights can get a stop on the opening drive (Birds get ball first) they have a puncher's chance. If not, then it has been a good season.
