Seriously, what makes you think that?

Ryle has the better record and RPI (9-3 .57430 RPI) Trinity (5-7 .47195 RPI)

RPI means nothing in this case because Trinity has played six out of state teams. 

Opponents rankings on Calpreps Top 1000:

Trinity

- Carmel (IN) #186

- Moeller (OH) #200

- St. Rita (IL) #346

- La Salle (OH) #456

- St. Mary's (MO) #311

- Male #132

Ryle

I don't see Trinity blowing out Ryle. I'm thinking the Rocks win in the 10-15 point range most likely.

I am conflicted, I can see a close game and I can see a not so close game.

The only thing I would be surprised to see is a Ryle win in blowout fashion. 

Do I think Ryle will win? No... But I wouldn't be completely surprised if they did.

There is no way I see Ryle winning in a blowout.  I think Ryle has a small chance to win the game but I think it will either be a Trinity win or a big Trinity win, that is where I am conflicted, how much Trinity will win by.

We're on the same page.

We usually are. ?

I'm going with Shamrocks by 14. I don't think Ryle has the offense to match Trinity, but I think Ryle has a good defense that will keep them in the game plus the game is at Ryle.

This is all the same talk I heard before Ryle played St X. As only like opponent, who also beat T, Ryle held their own. Untimely penalties vs that stout defense, really put them behind the sticks in that one. This Ryle team won't be intimidated by just a name. I predict a low scoring affair, and since both teams have really good place kickers, and I can see special teams being huge in this game. 

This should be another NKY vs Louisville edition.  The NKY teams put up good numbers all season until they play T, M or X in the playoffs. A different type of football is played here. Go ROCKS!!!!

Whatever! SMH

I will say T by 14 with that said I hope Ryle gets the win!

Trinity by 20+
