I think it could be an issue for CovCath later in the year if they have to play a game somewhere along the way on grass after having been on turf the entire year.

 

 

With this sports/field turf now, I think that analogy is no longer valid. These fields are designed to play more like a very well manicured grass field. It's not like we're talking astroturf.

SK needs a 3-way tie in order to get in. Unlikely to happen.

 

Very unlikely indeed but it was unlikely last season, so we'll see. SK has to win out, and beating Ryle will be very, very tough.

Who has a well manicured grass field in NKY?

 

Other than maybe Holmes, with the rain pounding two weeks ago on Friday, grass fields are hurting this year.

:lol: No-one that I know of. I just don't think the surface (when dry) makes that big of a difference anymore. Boone's field is starting to look like Dixie's old field. They're another school that could use the turf as they're land-locked. The football team has done a good number to the baseball field.

Campbell County also has bermuda now

By my calculations, for Dixie to end up with the #1 seed, they need to win out (Holmes, CC, and Ryle) and have Boone lose 2 of 3 to Holmes , Conner, and Scott.

 

Anyone want to place odds on that happening?

Boone is at Campbell County next week.

Nick Kaiser for Boone County had a great game BTW. Two interceptions and countless solo tackles that would have gone for long gains otherwise. He was the Player of the Game in my opinion.

He played very well against Ryle also. He's turning into quite a player

and then ................. 0.

It should have been 28-0 or 24-0 depending on how you add at half. I'd have even taken 12-0 at the half.:laugh:

It's hard to say Boone should have had 0. Big plays are part of football

Sounds like Dixie did their damage between the 20's but couldn't cash in.

Boone getting it done again when it counts.

A loss is a loss...

That'll be a game to go see.

As a Dixie fan, this was one aggravating game. They had so many chances to put this one away early, but gave it away. Our d played great, only 2 mental laspes which resulted in 14 points. It was IMO the questionable decisions and lack of accuracy on our qb's part that was the difference. Joey has had numerous starts as our play caller in 1 + seasons to be making the mistakes of missing wide open receivers, not throwing the ball away under pressure (taking sacks), floating his passes and throwing too many jump balls since we have smaller receivers. I know he's young, and will only learn from his mistakes but he's been at the helm long enough. 3 ints (I believe, plus one fumble) within the opponent's 30 yd line = loss in any game. Dixie held Boone in check for most of the game, but lost IMO to Bricking's lack of confidence, or mechanics, and as has happened in most Dixie/Boone games, we fell for the trick plays that Coach Thompson always throws at us. Congrats to Boone on a big district win, and best of luck in the rest of the regular season. I'm not trying to demean Bricking in anyway. His completion percentage speaks for that. Coach Spritzky usually finds a way to right the ship at this time of the year, but I don't feel encouraged offensively with the exception of our running game. Dixie has 3 tough games left against Holmes, Campbell Co. and Ryle. I will always bleed red for my Colonels, but I feel the rest of the season will be too close to call. Again congrats to Boone. Farris is unbelievable. Hopefully we'll see you down the road in the playoffs.

Well said DC. The shotgun snap was also a major issue. The C HAS to get the ball up...

Tough loss for Dixie to swallow. But it sounds like Boone made the plays they had to get the job done. The Rebels hold their own fate in their hands now and are pretty much in the driver seat.

IMO its never good for a school parent to nail a kid on a BGP.

 

 

I watched the game and I could nail about 15 Dixie kids who could have made plays that would have potentially resulted in a W.

 

To nail a 16 year old kid is inexcusable.
