Kirk Herbstreit Ohio vs. USA Challenge

[Tough as Nails]

Got our tickets and looking forward to a weekend of some good football.

 

The weekend kicks off with two games, Findlay (Ohio) vs. Texas High (Texarkana, Texas) and Colerain (Cincinnati) vs. Cardinal O'Hara (Springfield, Pa.), on Sept. 15 at the University of Cincinnati's Nippert Stadium.

 

The next day will feature seven games at two Ohio sites.

 

Moeller (Cincinnati) vs. Byrnes (Duncan, S.C.); St. Xavier (Cincinnati) vs. Lakeland; Centerville (Ohio) vs. Don Bosco Prep (Ramsey, N.J.); and Elder (Cincinnati) vs. De La Salle will be played in Cincinnati.

 

Kent State University's Dix Stadium will host three games: Hilliard (Ohio) Davidson vs. Joseph's Prep (Philadelphia); St. Edward (Lakewood, Ohio) vs. Springdale (Ark.); and Massillon (Ohio) Washington vs. Hamilton (Chandler, Ariz.).

 

Five of the teams, four from the top 10, were in last season's final USA TODAY Super 25.

 

Anyone else going?

Folks, this event is unprecedented in US history. Nothing like this has EVER been done. If you live within 100 miles of Cincinnati and love high school football, you absolutely MUST ATTEND the games on Saturday Sept 16.

Do yourself a favor and get your tickets now. You can purchase them on-line and they are cheaper than if you bought them at the gate.

The tickets are not cheap. $13 each ahead or $17 at the gate. Each session includes two games. But well worth it if you want to see some good football teams from across the nation.

[dolamite]

Without question this has to be the finest slate of bowl games in high school football history. Its almost impossible to get top programs such as Byrnes, De La Salle, Don Bosco, and Lakeland together in the same region for a day of football, not too mention, the same stadium, and in the same bowl. The epitimy of high school football at its best in this bowl.

You must be a youngster;

 

Back in the 80's there was a Buddy Larosa Classic at Riverfront Stadium that featured Lasalle vs. Brentwood Academy TN, Fairfield vs Berwick with Ron Paulus at QB, Moeller vs. Mt. Carmel IL, Elder vs. Oklahoma team with tons of speed.

 

It happened 2 straight years, but then went away.....until now.

[sccards60]

Aren't some of these games going to be on FSN Ohio?

[swamprat]

I think Sun Sports or FSN Florida is carrying the St.X / Lakeland game, but don't hold me to that.

[SportsGuy41017]

Anyone going this weekend?

[SportsGuy41017]

Aren't some of these games going to be on FSN Ohio?

No, just one is on ONN (Ohio News Network) the Colerain game, Which I WISH Insight in NKY would start carrying as they have games of the week every week. Then tomorrow night they have a delay for the Moeller game. Good idea too, Live TV games keep too many fans away.

CovCath played against Massillon one of the years as well. CovCath trailed 18 - 14 going into the 4th when the wheels came off...

I remember that game like it was yesterday. It was really hot and CCH didn't have the depth Massillon had and so it goes.

 

It seems like I remember CCH playing Oak Hills over there another year in a close game...

[CardinalsFan]

Anyone going this weekend?

Uhhhhh, yeah. I'll will attend all 6 games in Cincy.

 

2 Friday night

4 Saturday

Yes, CovCath beat Oak Hills about 21 - 7 in a very hard hitting game. A very enjoyable game to watch.
