Frosh Trinity now 43-7. Running clock.

Unfortunately, sounds about right this year.

If T puts pressure on the X QB they’ll have a great chance to win. I say they will. T 24-14

The jury's still out on Havill, at least for me. He's only had one good game this year against a quality opponent. He looks the part, but I need to see more.

I will say this... The one time I've seen him this season, he handled pressure well. Good mobility and throws a good ball on the run.

Frosh Trinity 50-7. 3:42 4Q.

Radio/livestream

Both schools will have radio broadcasts – WXVW 96.1 FM/1450 AM for the St. X broadcast and WGTK 970 AM for the Trinity broadcast. There will not be a video livestream of the game.

Is anyone else having trouble buying tickets online? I get all the information in but it won’t let me click confirm. I’ve tried on my phone, home computer, and work computer through both the St X and Trinity links with no luck.

Strange, might be a temporary issue and would try later.

My wife got it to work on her work computer. They emailed them to me but when I put it in my apple wallet the tickets don’t have a barcode. They do have a barcode in the email. So who knows - I guess I’ll find out once I’m there ?.

I've noticed tickets for UofL don't have bar codes but the reader devices still scan it. I have season tickets to UofL football so have experience with them.

What is the typical attendance to a T and X game?

Just from my perspective as keys to the game:

-Pressure on Havill is a must. He likes to "hike it and heave it" a little too much under duress and he definitely has guys who can come down with it in Holloway, Harbin, and Barbee. The Rocks are much better at the corners this time around with Kamara and Stafford, but any blips could be touchdowns to those guys.

-Mahan/Washburn vs. Guillaume. Guillaume is clearly X's best lineman and probably the best player on the team. Claude, Zyan and any other DL he faces has to win at least part of the time. Tronzo will get doubled all game as he has all year, so whoever the interior 0-technique/shade defenders are have to get loose and get in the backfield. Coach Fox will no doubt rely on sim pressures and blitzes up the middle to confuse him and help our DL. Yates and Gray are quality backs who average over 5.9 yards per carry, so beating Guillaume in the middle can really hamper the X run game.

-Zero Mistakes. The Rocks have continued to get punts and kicks blocked again this year and that cannot happen if they want to win this game. No more red zone turnovers, no snaps over the head or on the ground. This has all led to being in high-leverage situations either being backed up against their own goal line or getting behind on the scoreboard. Offensive drives need to end in points and the defense will need their rest against this big offensive line and speedy skill players

I hope Coach Cobb can put it together and get the monkey off his back in the series. Trinity definitely has the ability to win this game, and were a dropped pass from it last year. Hopefully the Shillelagh is back on Shelbyville Road around 11pm tonight! Go Rocks! ☘️

Around 15-18 thousand recently. 2008 regular season was the peak at 38,500 and NFL Films was there to capture it for a documentary on Thanksgiving that year.  

Both teams last game had turnovers so that will be a key. If you win the turnover stat, you have good chance of winning.
