A big 5A battle should be a good one. Who do you think wins and why?

Highlands rolls

Dixie in a close one

I think the Birds win this one by a few td's. Dixie is a one dimensional team..

Birds by 3 TD's

 

Highlands 62

Dixie 41

It all depends if Highlands can stop the run.

Highlands will hang a big number on Dixie in this one. Something along the lines of 56-34.

Highlands. Because they will score more than Dixie.

Have not see Dixie in person. If highlands doesn't find a defense it could be a close game.

Dixie could run for 300 yards this game.

Dixie will run the ball and run it some more; try to shorten the game/limit possessions for each team. If Highlands can stop their running game, they can win by a big margin. If they can't, Dixie has a chance to pull an upset - but very doubtful that can happen IMO.

Pulling for the Colonels but thinking there's too much offense for them to overcome.

After hearing a lot of the SK game scoop from several coaches, I believe Highlands is ready to roll big. Could be the Birds in the 40s winning by 2 TDs.

I truly believe that Dixie has a chance in this game. If they come out with the intensity and emotion and physicality that they played with against Cooper, they have a shot. They have to shorten the game and be effective running the ball and not make mistakes. Defensively they have to figure out some coverage difficulties they are having and limit #9 for Highlands.

 

At the end of the day, I still think Highlands wins this game, but I am going to say it is somewhere around 35-24 or something like that. I think Dixie is effective in keeping the ball out of Highlands offense but it isn't enough to get the W.
