Yay!  It’s finally Catholic week!!!

In what has become one of the biggest rivalries in the state, Boyle County travels to Lexington Catholic for what usually is an all out brawl for the district regular season championship.  Both teams are having a great season with the Rebels starting 6 - 0 with big wins over Bowling Green, Henderson County, Bryan Station and North Hardin.   The Knights bring a 5 - 1 record into the contest with a one point loss to Covington Catholic and wins over Ryle, Henry Clay, PRP, LCA and Tates Creek.  Both teams are coming off a bye week and should be rested and refreshed.

Boyle leads the all-time series 21- 13 and has won the last nine games dating back to 2017 (5 reg season and 4 playoff games).  In that stretch only two games have been close.  It truly has been a series of streaks, with Catholic winning the previous 8 of 9 before the current streak.  The series dates back to 1997 where Boyle won 28 - 27.  All the games but one have involved playoff implications with 19 being district games and 14 being in the playoffs.  In most years the met in the regular season and the playoffs, as this was before RPI seeding.  Should be another good one.

WHO YOU WITH ?!?!?!?!

Boyle County wins 42-24.

Love it!!!

I’m planning on making this trip.

We've seen this movie a dozen times and we all know how it ends. Just like we know that despite the new Halloween movie is titled Halloween Ends we all know Michael Myers will live. BC is too physical upfront and that will be the difference in the game. 

My favorite week of the year!

I'm going with the upset.. Give me Catholic by a score of 42-35.

#1 vs #3, playoff seeding and RPI rankings. Plenty to play for in this one. LC runs the offense it takes to beat Boyle. It’ll be up to the Rebel defense to get the W. Should be a fun one!

I think that is a little aggressive.

I'm more interested in how they scored the helmet...

I suppose all they needed was one Boyle sticker and some black spray paint but yes me too.

After a closer look, that sticker probably isn't the sticker Boyle orders. Looks clumsily cut.
