I'd be surprised if Boyle doesn't win by 2-3 scores.

Good test for both teams. 
 

How does Boyle handle an athletic and aggressive Bruin defense?

 

Can Ballard deliver 4 quarters of productive offense vs a well coached Boyle defense?

How is Ballard's Defense?  Boyle's offense has been inconsistent since the Bulliet East game only scoring over 21 points in one game since then.  Ballard's offense will need to be really good to get over 21 points on Boyle's defense. 

Ballard has struggled to move the ball this season.  They have not run the ball very well and passing game has been up and down.  6 int's versus 2 passing TD.  Ballard's D has been solid.  It is very tough to run the ball against them.  I just don't see them being able to score enough to beat Boyle.  I'm thinking 21-7 Boyle in a low scoring contest.

Yeah that makes sense I could see that score.  Boyle went against them in 7 on 7 and Ballard has some big athletic receivers.  Not sure what Ballard's oline and defensive line is like.  Is Boyle getting any of their O line or QB back this week?  

I know people want to look at Boyles Lex Cath game and compare but when you start the game with three plus offensive starters out then lose you starting QB of two years early that’s not in anyone’s game plan. Haddix and company now are getting healthy outside of a few. They will have all their lineman for the first time this year. For me changing from a balanced to a power run game in the highlands game makes a difference. Their defense is solid. I think we may see a much improved team from highlands this week. Boyle 35-10

They were only missing Cliff Yocum on the line in that game and he had started right tackle all season up until the Lex Cath Game.  Give Boyle coaches credit after the Lex Cath game they moved Kelly from center to right tackle to fix problems they had against Lex Cath and could tell a big difference in Highlands game.  Boyle starting QB played until midway though 2nd qtr before going out.  Backup came in and scored only TD against Lex Cath and looked really good against Highlands in the win.  Saying they had 3 plus linemen out against Lex cath  is incorrect.  

Rebels should be one week better, and I believe they come out of this one easily! Give me Boyle!

Boyle wins it here. Might be close for a half. 
 

Boyle County 35

Ballard 14

Sorry two lineman, Yocum and Goodman who hasn’t played this year but due back this week and Borders Coffman their starting MLB. 
The bye week was big for Boyle to get healthier.

Agreed.  Goodman will help probably more on defense than offense but good to get him able to play.  He didn't play in the prior 3 games to Lex Cath so they were only missing one player from previous 3.  I am hearing Boyle lost their safety in the bye week.  Hopefully QB is back this week or next.

You are correct safety is out. Other than the qb they should be healthy. 

Any video/stream for this one?

Ok was hoping QB would be back this week. Hopefully he can play against ST X.  Losing Drakeford will hurt in the secondary.  Behind Driver he probably has the 2nd most D1 offers on the team.  They do have some depth at DB so should be able to roll on.
