Trust me, while I'm not involved in the "game-planning" (luckily for CCH), I'm fairly sure the Coaches are aware of all of the weapons that BG possesses. I just hope they are as intent as abandoning Hibbitt as you make it appear. I just have a hunch we're going to see a steady dose of Hibbitt between the tackles, and believe, I hope I'm wrong and you guys drop back and wing it all over the yard. Nothing would make me happier.

 

No doubt!

 

Luckily for BG, no one listens to me either. All I am saying is BG has worked really hard to change and improve it's offense, and make the most of the plethora of athletes the team has been blessed with having this year. Now, I would love to state confidently that BG is going to win, but it sounds like they will have to play a near perfect game to do that. Haven't seen CC, but they read like an unbeatable team. Clearly they are the favorites. However if you think BG got to the State Championship riding the Hines-Hibbitt train, that is a slap to the many other talented players who have contributed this year. Now if the Hines-Hibbitt express is working...Whoo Whoo!

Good Luck Cov.Cath. Bring it home."with a Spirit that will not die"

How can a BG team ranked #1 all year be the underdogs?

What is it with trains this year? We just faced the "Long Black Train" from Johnson Central. Now comes the Hines-Hibbitt Express from Bowling Green. Hope we can derail this one as well.

Covington Catholic and Highlands were ranked higher than BG in several polls through out the year. Right now the BP Poll certainly has CC as the heavy favorite.

Most on here are saying Cov Cath in a route, that makes BG the underdogs.

I would direct you to the last BGP poll.

 

Class AAA Final Rankings

 

At no point in the season was CovCath ahead of BG.

 

Also, as far as poll in this thread goes, it is unscientific and is probably a better indicator of how many fans of each team post on BGP than an indicator of how the game will go.

I would direct you to review the Massey Rankings, Lit Rankings and Cantrel Rankings. All had Covington ranked ahead of BG for most of the year. At least the last 4 or 5 weeks. I know that these are just tools to fuel discussion, but the current popular opinion on web sites is that Covington will win easily.

I will be in the minority and pick the Purples 21-20.

It will be the worst weather conditions of all the games. I know BG runs the ball and plays good tight D. What does CC do with their offense. Cold and snow, should be fun.

I don't want to get into a discussion on the limitations of the computer ratings, but there are many fans of teams in Eastern Kentucky in particular and 2A in general who feel the Masseys, Lits, and Cantrells are bunk.

 

Anyway, this should be a good game and I hope CovCath can keep it close.

Every school seems to have one guy that makes other schools start to root against them.

I know exactly what you mean! There were some schools that I was pulling for just a few days ago and now I hope they get hammered!:ylsuper:

I normally always root for NKY teams in championship games, however, I do not want to offend my friends. Go Purple. :thumb:

 

The last thing this school would want is your support.

Count me in then! Go Purples!!!:ylsuper:
