That would be interesting, for sure.

Two teams that have gone in different directions since they last met. Rematch would be interesting.

I was going to say the same thing.

I was really impressed with Highlands when they were at CovCath.  They played with resilience and just weren't going to lose that game.  I also saw that South Warren game and it was like after the first play from scrimmage (Highlands should have had a big completion if not TD) and then couldn't find any traction from there.

 

South Warren looked like a Super Bowl team in the Rafferty's Bowl vs Highlands.  Since they haven't been able to make the plays down the stretch against many of the teams they have lost to.  That plus way too many turnovers have them with 4 losses for the first time since 2016, their last year in 4A.

Woulda, Coulda, Shouda.  It was a sound idea to have Benke at TE and Noon at WR but the three QB's Highlands played against SW just did not have the experience to play the position out of the gate.  Could speculate all day long on what would have been had Benke been taking the lions share of reps all summer!

Please move Owensboro out of the top 10.

You may have played that voodoo enough now to get them a win over Henderson County.

It would be like a science experiment.
