Dixie with the upset! Fort Thomas will go crazy!

In these parts, there's the @Randy ParkerKiss Of Death (RPKOD) when picking basketball games. 

Your record may merit a @MaddenCurse44Kiss Of Death (MC44KOD) for football picks.

Sorry Red Colonels.

In terms of the game, rather than babbling and joking about stats and things that don't matter, I am interested to see what changes Dixie makes to stop the Birds' running game from the 1st matchup. If Dixie chooses to fill the box, which I think they will, I would hope to see the Birds focus on the deep passing game. One on one matchups on the outside will definitely go in the Birds' favor. 

As long as the offensive line for the Birds is playing the way they have been, they will have an advantage over anyone they face besides BG.

A heads up about tickets...

You 100% can buy tickets at the gate. You just have to use a credit card. Not sure where the misinformation was coming from that you could only buy online. That would be a horrible business model. 

Would be nice if they just took cash at the gate.  Really not sure why this practice is still in place.  Either lazy on AD part or don’t want to pay people to sell tickets.

Aside from some little league sports I haven't coached much, but maybe one day! Currently too many carpets to clean!

Just passing along what I know. I don't disagree.

Can't trust those heathen Ft Thomas people with the cash.  Too much of it disappears.  Kidding!!

But that is why we are seeing a small increase in businesses not taking cash.   I generally skip those places if possible.

The birds need to forget what happened in the regular season. It’s win and play on! Play the game like it’s going to be your last, mistake, free, penalty free and do your assignment.

It’s been a relatively quiet thread this week after all the activity over the weekend. Perhaps folks have been sharpening their stat pencils or editing down their game film to preoccupy themselves. But alas, the time is near.

Games with same season repeat opponents tend to play closer. I think this one will initially look that way. However, there will be a celebration in those pristine, litter-free parking lots this evening. Birds pull away and flirt with another running clock.

Flirt with a running clock? ?
