It's round 2 of the Class 4A playoffs. It's win or go home.

 

On Friday, Lexington Catholic (7-4) will travel to Danville to take on the Boyle County Rebels (11-0). Game 1 between these teams did not go as planned for the Knights as they got routed by Boyle County 64-28.

 

Can Lexington Catholic keep this game close and even winning it or will this be another running clock for Boyle County?

 

Lexington Catholic is coming off a 43-23 victory over Bourbon County. Boyle County dominated Anderson County 64-14.

History and the scale of the margin in the first match-up says Boyle County.

The Rebels defense is playing faster and with fewer mistakes than when these two played earlier. I think they will hold the Knights to fewer points than the first game and Boyle will score at will. Another running clock.

Boyle County wins big.

I agree. I can't see an outcome with Lexington Catholic winning. Boyle County will limit Lexington Catholic's offense and will score at will.

I don’t think that LC can match with Boyle. BC has all the weapons needed to take them to Kroger in December. I expect Beau to play really well but the Rebels will be too much.

Never underestimate Lexington Catholic. Stranger things has happened and if the turnover bug was to hit they can make it a game.

I got to thinking about Boyle's record at home and looked up past games at home and in the playoffs.

 

Right now Boyle has a 25 game home winning streak. Boyle has not lost a home playoff game since November 15th. 2013 to Pardue's Mercer County team 31-30. That loss is Boyle's only home playoff loss since the 1997 Dudley Hilton's infamous mudbowl at Rebel field against Bourbon County.

 

That's 1 loss at home going back over the last 23 years.

Boyle is 46-1 at home in the postseason since that loss to Bourbon. That's an incredible, relevant statistic.

Catholic will make it interesting early on but Rebels should pull out the victory.

Highlights from the first meeting.
