6A #2 St. Xavier at #3 Pleasure Ridge Park

[thsrocks]

The Tigers steamrolled Central 42-7. The Panthers will be well rested coming off an open week. Both teams come into this district 3 matchup with perfect 4-0 records. In 2015 St Xavier won 21-13 and in 2016 St. Xavier prevailed 27-17.

 

I like the Tigers to utilize their huge lineman and keep the ball out of Pleasure Ridge Park offense's hands.

Going with past results and saying Tigers by 10. Going to be a battle.

Is this the best chance PRP has had vs. X in some time?

 

Other than the past two years, these two teams haven't played in a while, have they?

I think both teams are better than last year. I think PRP is capable of winning. I think they started playing when PRP was put in same district as X.

Where's this one played at? Should be a dandy matchup.

I still like X to win, but it should be close.

[Sinbad 74]

The Ridge has improved by leaps and bounds over the last several years.

If the Panthers don't psych themselves out when they see the X numbers

They will offer up the best chance in years to defeat one of the two best

Programs in the state by PRP. Trinity, and X have a way of winning games

Prior to the opening kickoff.

Should be an exciting matchup. Excited for this game!

[Voice of Reason]

This is PRP's chance to show doubters like me how good they are. I don't doubt PRP is good. I just don't see them in the top 4 in 6A. I see them just above Simon Kenton at 5 but a definite separation between them and the top 4.

Pretty sure in 2005 PRP was a failed 2pt conversion away from knocking an undefeated X out of the playoffs, but that said I think this is their best shot in a while. X is good this year though, it will be tough.

[Purple Nation]

X should win but I am going to call the upset.

 

X 21

PRP 28

[Adopted Purple]

This should be a great game. PRP has the speed and St. X has the bulk. I'm going with speed. PRP 28-24.

[Tigerpride94]

Looking at who PRP has played and the scores, I think their defense will keep them in the game, but don't think their offense will be enough to pull the upset.

[LongTimeReader]

This will tough game for the Tigers offense has PRP has some good looking players on the defensive side of the ball. How is PRP's staring QB? Didn't he get injured during their game with BG? X's has to do a good job on 3rd down or it could be a very tight game...if they can get off the field On 3rd down size and depth will help the Tigers pull away.

 

X wins 27-13
