Who wins the battle of Northern Kentucky powers? Simon Kenton sits at 2-1 on the season. Highlands also sits at 2-1 on the season.

I’d be shocked if this is close. Birds win 35-14.

35-14 sounds about right.

I think this will be a 1 maybe 2 score difference.

Curious for those who think SK will keep it close. How do they do that? Birds have 5 really good receivers in Ahfeld, Delagrange, Deshler, Weyer, and Houzz. Can SK secondary stay with them? Plus the addition of a speedy sophomore Welch who had 3 TD’s last week. Buten should be back at full strength and split carries with Brune, Who really looks good. I don’t think SK can get kickoffs in the end zone so unlike the KnoxCath game, Huddy will have an impact on special teams... I just don’t see how SK stops the Birds weapons. How is SK going to put up more than 14 against a very good D who tends to dominate the turnover battle? They’ll get some yards, but I don’t see it turning into points.

Who will come out on top of these two Top 10 teams? Will Highlands prove they are ready for a playoff run? Or, will Simon Kenton prove they should be in the discussion in Class 6A?

I am sure Bluebirds fans are looking forward to this.

I'm in this vicinity...I think the Birds lay it on them fairly hard.

Birds running clock early in the 3rd quarter.

Birds by 5 touchdowns.

I don't know that it's going to be as bad as some suggest bit Birds by a few touchdowns seems about right.
