After watching the film I saw very, and i mean very few mistakes by them.. perfect was exagerating, i know.. but it wasn't just a good game either.. JC played an outstanding game! I will just leave it at that.. I thought it was kind of a compliment to the kids by saying that, I'm sure our kids would be happy to get that kind of recognition.. sorry if you took it the wrong way though :thumb:

 

 

Well after watching the film, I seen a whole lot different point of view than you did. JC didn't play like they are capable of with a lot of stupid yet simple mistakes. On the outside looking in, it could seem like and awesome mistake free game but believe me the players and coaching staff see it a whole lot differently.:thumb:

Sorry Tomcat69...I should give more credit where credit is due. My boys did play an excellent game more so than a good game. If JC does limit their penalties and mistakes, it will be a long night for Ashland again. No skin off Ashland's nose, they have a good football just not the caliber of JC

I live about 20 minutes from Papa John's stadium, and unless I have to be out of town for work, I will be at the championship games.

 

Well worth the price of admission. Good football, good coaching, good people. Needless to say, I'm a little biased toward whichever teams come from the Eastern end of the state....

I really hope to see you there agin this year Frances!! If so, you know I'll be in maroon too...........................and gold!!!

I disagree with you on one thing in your post. I do not think Johnson Central has as good of passing game as Ashland. I think Ashland has a better qb and I think they have a better group of receivers. I don't know if the qb will have enough time to throw and the receivers enough time to get open but i think if Ashland's O line gives them time they are better than Johsnon Central in that aspect of the game. Just my opinion.

 

 

JC doesn't even need a passing game. Have you ever seen their o-line?

I doubt they'll need one Friday anyway.

Johnson Central. 28

Ashland 7

For me to predict an Ashland victory this Friday would require a few too many “ifs” although I do believe this Tomcat team could pull off the upset. One of the more puzzling questions regarding the 2006 Tomcats is whether they have yet played an entire game up to their full potential. We responded well after getting stung in the season opener and displayed much character and determination in two hard fought multiple overtime victories. Perhaps those overtime wins are the best we can play, but even with a modest outlook, one couldn’t help but think we had room to improve and the corresponding ability to do it.

 

I refuse to believe we have played our best football yet…if this team has the ability to turn it up a notch or two, now would be the perfect time. JC is a worthy opponent who has steadily separated themselves from the pack throughout the season. It will take a game unlike what Ashland has played thus far to trip up this favored Eagle team. With 24 Tomcat seniors who I hope are not quiet ready to hang up their pads (most for the remainder of their lives) this next game may turn the “Unfinished Business” tour into a “Going Out Of Business” finale.

Oh no you didnt! :fight: :madman:

Good luck to the Tomcats in hopes that your season continues.

You should take one game at a time,dont you think.There is some strong teams in the state.Dont get me wrong JC is A strong team but anything can happen.

I respect your support for your team. Do you honestly think JC could play with Trinity, X, Lex. Catholic, Ft. Thomas ?

As for Lex Cath & Fort Thomas (or their district #1 seed Cov Cath), we are hoping to find out at JCHS on November 24, but each of these teams has a lot of football to play between now and then.

 

It's good to see the Tomcat fans returning to this thread, and responding to their call to "Believe." :thumb: I sure hope they play their best Friday, JCHS really needs a tough, close game to prepare for these later rounds. It's OK for us to believe too, right? Coach Matney has this team believing they can go to the state finals, but won't let them change their focus from one game at a time. I am sure Ashland is capable of winning if we were to lose focus, but I don't see that happening. Both teams have improved in the last two games, but I look for JCHS to win it, 28-14 (no missed extra points) in a well played, hard hitting game.
