This Friday, Highlands hosts Southwestern. HHS is coming off two back-to-back losses to Cincinnati Elder and Louisville Saint Xavier. Will these two tough games cause the 'Birds to be fatigued, or will they come out angry and hungry for a big win???

 

I'll say:

Highlands 48

Southwestern 21

HHS wins going away, 5-6 TD margin, no offense to PSW but HHS has lost two in a row and that's not too common for the boys of Ft Thomas, I think they'll be extremely fired up for this one.

Yeah, the birds arent in the best of moods, and that usually doesnt bode well for the enemy!

I would have predicted this game a little closer if Southwestern hadn't lost to South Laurel last Friday. I'll say Highlands 42-14.

I'm not into making predictions, but it will be nice playing someone "our size" after playing Elder and X. With the senior leadership on the Birds team, I doubt the Birds will be looking past Southwestern. In the first half of last year's game, they gave us all we could handle. We came out of the X game tired but healthy. After a few days "rest", I'm sure the legs will be back and the soreness dissipated by Friday. It would be foolhardy for the Birds to not take Southwestern seriously. We've played four really good games this year, and losing to Southwestern would take the luster off of those performances in a New York minute. With Conner and Owens back from their sabatticals, look for the Birds to come out fired up and ready to play. Will be interesting to see what tricks Coach Anderson has up his sleeves. He watched us scrimmage Beechwood and I'm sure he and his team will be ready for us. I know this: Southwestern will not come up here and just lie down because we beat Dixie and Connor and played Elder and X tough. Should be a good game and if the Birds aren't ready to play, they will go home Friday night extremely disappointed.

Hungry for a big win.

Highlands 44

Southwestern 20

HHS in a game that might turn into a laugher. I'll say 38-10.

Highlands will name the score Friday night... I'll say 48-7 with SW getting a score late on the JV...:ylsuper:

Southwestern I wouldn't overlook Highlands, I heard they're a pretty good team. I say this game will go in OT and Southwestern will come out with the W.

This game is my upset special of the week.

In our area people JUST love to refer to that as a "down year":D I can't predict this game, cause I have a good friend for HHS and one for PSW. Since I would never say anything against either one of them or their teams, I will be quite:thumb:

SW has averaged 4 TDs per game, but the bar is set alot higher this time out. After a scenic bus ride to NKY, I see a couple of quick scores for the Birds; followed by several long drives. Another shut out.

 

HHS 42

SW 0
