Covington Catholic 35 Columbus DeSales (OH) 7

Based on the scores vs Desales. Should be a good one next week.

 

CovCath will take down the bye next week.

CovCath will take down the bye next week.

 

May be the only week they don't win.

Ok. How about the next game then.

[GottaLuvFootball]

That's why Cov Cath won state every year......

I know this is going to sound petty but Fox19 showed #2's long run on the highlight show. Shook my head with the gesture made when crossing the goal line. You've been there many times before so a Usain Bolt gesture shouldn't be necessary. I'm sure I'll get killed for this opinion but I didn't like the showboating.

[DevilMayCare]

The Fox19 camera man confirmed that he has footage of the AJ Mayer flip to Casey McGinness for the 68 yard RD in the 2nd half. Should be entertaining to watch that one.

Great presence of mind by the QB under duress.

Not what I taught my kids and they have scored a lot. Give the ball back to the ref and go thank all the teammates who got you to the endzone. You didn't break 11 tackles so you had help. I agree with you Nachos.

Just seen the play, I thought you meant he did the whole lightning pose. That wasn't that bad.

[oldoc]

Not saying it was right, but I was told he was mocking the score that Desales had when their player did the same exact thing a quarter earlier.

Maybe I should've clarified. No pose was struck but acting like a sprinter crossing the finish line was showmanship. If one of the DeSales players previously did it, that's all the more reason to be classy. It's not the worst hot dogging you'll see and I think CM is a heckuva RB. Just wish I didn't see that.

I wish all the hand picked private schools would play each other. Should have their own league.

 

The haters are going to hate!

I recall an official flagging Cov Catholic after that touchdown but the flag was waved. Not sure if it was that action or excessive celebration in the end zone regardless the flag was picked up but not sure why.

That was for a sideline warning. Nothing to do with the touchdown.

[D'ICEMAN]

Okay, so the side warning was finally called after the extra point but before the kickoff. Thanks!

[Theoldguy]

Correct you are Colonel Fan, it was a sideline warning.

 

WOW the Kid goes for a 68 yard TD on a ESPN highlight film play that literally every local TV station ran at least twice and all some of you want to do is rag on the kid for being happy. :idunno:

 

Darn I see more celebration on a TD each Sunday from NFL players and on Saturday from the NCAA players, than I saw on a HS kid scoring a huge TD, in a game that at the Time was a somewhat tight game!

 

Tough crowd!
