The purples have Coach Wallace one of the best their is.

 

Old habits are hard to break.  Love what Daviess County has been able to accomplish this year.  In a district that used to be owned by McCracken County, the Panthers earn their first district title in awhile.

I think the DC offense will score some points, but agree with @Brown that their defense won't be able to hold up against a versatile X offense.

I'll go X 42

DC 21

Oops!

Anything can happen, that's why you play the game and I know it has already been mentioned a lot, but I'm just not sure how Daviess County defense stops St. X. Daviess County has a big NT who can potentially clog up the middle, but other than that there will be a distinct sized advantage for St. X. If St. X just does what they do offensively they should be in good shape. There will be some shot opportunities in the passing game, but just see St. X leaning on Daviess County and wearing them out for four quarters. 

 

What does the weather look like for Friday?

This is Joe Humphreys' chance to make a claim for Mr. Football.

Daviess County RB Gunnar Evans has rushed for 951 yards and leads the team in tackles with 129. I assume he never comes off the field which is impressive.

Yep plus some of their WR skill players are always on the field (Dees, Hamilton, Tomes, and big lineman Blue)

Are you reading my mind VoR?

I plan on watching some of this game specifically to check out Joe Humphreys.

Hearing Rex Chapman May be at the game!

You know it's a big game when the celebrities come out!

X will be a tough task for DC and If Humphrey wants Mr Football he’s gonna have to show up and show out .

One game on Daviess County's schedule surprised me which was the Floyd Central (IN) game since they had to beat them in OT 21-14. Male beat Floyd Central 49-0 and Manual beat Floyd Central 34-7. I remember watching Floyd Central against Male and thinking that was one of the worst tackling teams I've ever seen.

I just looked at stat report and Joe Humphreys threw 4 interceptions that game so probably explains why was close game despite him throwing 350 yards.
