Not in the same class this year. No post season implications.

Is it me? or Does this seem odd seeing this game this early in the season? 

Me too.

Cov Cath 35

Highlands 42

Highlands wins the battle of the lines. Leen has a big day. Benke has slightly better day. Birds get it done at home. 

I’m shocked that the CovCath people are pick the Colonels and Highlands people are picking the Birds……stunned.

Would be interested in knowing, from those attending, if the vibe is a bit different.   I would still expect an intense game.  But knowing that there is no chance of a rematch coming in the late fall has to be a drain on something.

I’d say the vibe is the same. My biggest question is, if the game Is played Friday night, who is in the best shape currently to handle the heat? Good luck to both teams.

... that partisanship is going on in here.

Highlands 38

Cov Cath 35

Calpreps has the game projected as 27-26 Covington Catholic (at a neutral site).

About 11:15pm on Sunday and the poll is currently 29 votes to 21 in Cov Cath's favor.

Hearing that the game may be delayed because of heat but will most likely be a day of decision.

CWB will fact check you on that one. 

Going to go with my fellow Catholics and take the Blue Colonels in close one. Should be a good game.

Kickoff has been officially moved to 8pm!

Still on Friday night
