So I don’t think the inexperienced card fits anymore, now in year 5 calling plays. 

With all the inexperience talk and that not being the case, are people just referring to him not having the pedigree at this point needed to get the Birds that coveted state ring?

I think this game is going to come down to special teams and turnovers. Against a mediocre team you can get by with a few turnovers, but against a quality team you have to play near perfect.
 

How many times did CC turn the ball over against Beechwood? One was going to be a TD in the first quarter if I remember correctly. Have turnovers been problem for either team all year?

Man...that's what my gut is telling me too. Seems like HHS is still trying to figure themselves out. As for the ego and pride comments earlier in this thread...It is very common for younger coaches to fall victim to those. Gaining experience getting humbled is the biggest equalizer IMO. Now that's not an indictment on the young coach on my behalf, just an overall comment. HHS has a lot of talent to try and appease. That place has certainly earned the reputation of not being the easiest place to coach with all the "opinions" people like to throw around. Gonna be a great atmosphere on Friday and looking forward to all the opinions post game. ?

5-1 with the one loss being to Boyle by a point? Pretty sure Highlands knows who they are.

I think this is the game of the week. Toughest pick I have had to make thus far, but... I think Cov Cath is going to be too much for Highlands. 

Highlands -14

Cov Cath- 28

If CovCath wins by anything greater than 14, at Highlands, I'll be shocked -- and will give you mad credit on this call!

Everyone on God's green earth should be expecting the staff of HHS to get the ball in Lorenzen's hands, more than 7 times a game...in their only loss...staff included.

I am going with CovCath, I think the Colonels are better.

Harney is a freak. Outside of him I think Highlands has a better roster pound for pound.

Is Cov Caths best win losing to Elder by 7?

100% with you on this one. I think Highlands might own this one for a couple more years.

Highlands 24-20.
