I was. 

Birds won 34-8.

Highlands looked dominant. Griffin Benke, Carter Manning, Tayden Lorenzen, Chase Jacob, and Gabe Williams all stood out.

This is a really solid freshman team.

Roman Combs is a player on the Cooper side, though. 

Cale Harris, Teagan Haretuku, and John Feldbruegge are all studs for the freshman birds as well. It will be a running clock early tonight for the Birds. 

8-6 Highlands. Scott started 3 and out but Highlands returned punt to the 7. Benke scored on QB keep. Scott connected on about a 70 yard pass(not surprising) to inside the 10. And then passed for td. 

Scott picks off Benke in the end zone.

I just flipped on https://www.bluebirdsradio.com/ @Brennan_Bucher!

Benke with a 44 yard td run. XP kick no good. Benke is sneaky fast!

 

14-6 Highlands

Start of 2nd quarter, Highlands is up 14-6.

Can someone from Scott PLEASE submit your vote that you think you will beat the Birds?  Last week there was NO LOVE for Conner vs the Birds, it was a 36-0 vote total for that game.  I realize the chances of Scott winning are the same for me winning the $2 billion Powerball last week, but I am having some sympathy for these guys in front of the Highlands steamroller.

I am holding out my vote to potentially cast at the 11th hour if someone else doesn't do it.

Sympathetic Birds fan,

No such thing as a sympathetic Birds fan. You all think 55-7 is a nail biter lol.

21-6

Sorta curious, thinking about the fact that the Birds really haven't been challenged since the Cooper game....you might even debate if that was a challenge (at least offensively it wasn't).

Would Bob ever think of calling up his former player, the coach over in Park Hills and say hey you want to have a combined practice.  That way the Birds don't continue to just beat up each other.  Looks like Cov Cath hasn't really had a good game since the Beechwood one.

I just thought about this with Scott on Thursday then a BYE week for the Birds then probably another running clock 1st round playoff game before we see some sort of competition.

It just crossed my mind like when the Packers came to town and had a combined practice with the Bengals during Pre Season.....

Again, would High Schools do this in mid season???  Would you favor this idea???

Or is this just crazy thought.....  

That would be great! Both schools would be out of the playoffs. 10 games, even if you are special. Scrimmages pre-season. Get some one like Benke or Rodriguez injured? Get a grip Frank.
