In fairness Beechwood doesn't try to feature Robinson. 

Maybe they should.

I agree.

Berger has been so dominating they haven't done much else.

Not a good look for the Tigers after their first test. Figure it out.
Cov Cath should win their district. 

Great win!  It was a lot of fun to watch the Colonels play tough, physical football and impose their will.  Sound game plan on both sides of the ball.  
 

Very satisfying win, on a multitude of levels.

Cov Cath rolls up 342 yards of offense on Beechwood, to Beechwood's 117 yards of offense.

I'll wait to see Beechwood's confirmation on the stat, but I was told Beechwood only rushed for 18 yards.

I’d like to hear from Cov Cath people as to how Pikeville compared to Beechwood.

Sounds right. Beechwood had one first down until their last TD drive. 

I will post more of my thoughts on the game later.

Beechwood is a little better but CovCath played lights out tonight.

How many times did Beechwood throw it tonight?

Wow. I did not see this coming at all. Huge win for CCH so congrats to them, and I feel sorry for whoever gets the upset version of BW next week.

More than they ran it. But they only ran 12 plays on offense in the first half, then 9 more plays in the second half before their final drive.

Line of scrimmage was totally dominated by CCH. Beechwood playing without their most physical player obviously not ideal, but it would not have made a difference on offense.  Missing Waddell on defense was critical against the run, especially on many of the 3rd and shorts CCH was able to convert.

Wow!!! Keep away it sounds like.

Stop the run, stop the run, stop the run. Colonel defense flew around all night. 
 

Great game.

Congrats Covington Catholic!

Owen Leen, Evan Pitzer, and Willie Rodriguez, you three really impressed me tonight, good job.

Beechwood, on to Dixie Heights. 

10000% agree. Those three were OUTSTANDING tonight.
