I picked Holy Cross as I was very impressed how they handled Newport who the week before beat Lloyd. Should be a good game. If Holy Cross wins this they would have earned the 2 seed in the district. If Lloyd wins it will be a 3 way tie for the 2 seed.

Lloyd is a mess right now. I will go with Holy Cross.

If Holy Cross can focus and not make stupid mistakes I think they have a chance to win and get the second seed.  They just need to play football and not shoot themselves in the foot with penalties.

I asked last week and got no response…so I’ll ask again. What in the world is going on at Lloyd?

Easily the most disappointing season vs expectations in NKY this season.

Injuries, Covid affecting roster, not very deep in a lot of positions. Last years QB gave up football to concentrate on his track career (4 time state champ pole vaulter) this was a very big factor. And I personally feel they schedule “over their heads” 6A Dixie, 5A Grant County, 5A Boone County, 5A Montgomery County. They aren’t built to play those large schools. All that said, the Newport/Holy Cross game was crazy unusual, Newport was missing their best player and multiple starters. I wouldn’t chalk this game up for the Indians so fast….

Lloyd 28-0 at the half.
