Conner vs. Newport Central Catholic Predictions/Updates

[Yall Wear High Waters]

Connor (2-1) makes the trek to CovCath to take on NewCath (3-0)  7pm this Friday. 
Both teams put on dominating performances last week. 
Connor got the best of NCC last year 38-17. New season. Who ya got? Should be a good game!

Now things start to get interesting. NCC hosts a strong Conner team.  NCC has been solid so far.  A lot of weapons to choose from this year.  I expect NCC starters to play the entire game this week.  Interested to see how they hold up.  Schedule over the next three weeks will see what NCC is made of (Conner, Campbell County and Raceland).  This should be a good game.  Best of luck Breds.

If the Thoroughbreds win, I think it’s fair to say they are definitely in contention for state. I have kind of felt like this already, they are off to an impressive start.

NCC wins this one.

NCC has looked great this year but let’s not forget Conner is a pretty solid 5A school.  1A to 5A is a huge jump especially when you throw in that most of NCC players get very little rest as they play both sides of the ball.  I do think this will be a great game but I really think NCC needs a near perfect game to pull out the win.

I think this will be their biggest challenge so far.

I’ve got my eye on this one. The next 3 weeks will be tough but a week to rest after that. Then district play against a solid Newport club. 

[Yall Wear High Waters]

Gonna be a good test, especially upfront. NewCath is on a roll.
NewCath will have to play well to win. 

[Al Bundy]

Both teams have had a weak schedule so far, besides the Ryle game for Connor and they got stomped. It will be the most competitive game each team will have played to date this season. NCC pulls out a close one 

[Bac2369]

New Cath may need the passing game in this one if Conner stops the run.

Good test for NCC.  NCC needs to establish the run to control the clock.  O Line is up for the task. Cole runs hard and looks to punish tacklers. Collopy and Bivens are a great compliment to Cole's style of running. Defense has been solid both up front and the secondary so far this season.  Haven't seen a lot of tape on Conner.  Don't know what their strengths are. Good luck to both teams.  Should be a good one.
