St. X (2-3) will host Boyle County (4-1). St. X is coming off a 44-0 loss to Trinity and Boyle County is coming off a 38-3 win over Ballard. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 pm.

Last year Boyle County beat St. X 14-3.

St. X hasn't scored in eight quarters and will face another tough defense from Boyle County. The QB position has been a carousel for St. X with William Shoptaw starting the beginning of the season and Will Burmester getting the start against Trinity. Also, QB Austin Jacobson has clocked minutes as well. St. X has another QB Beau Artman who started against Boyle County last year but hasn't been seen, so maybe at some point he gets another shot at it. The St. X defense has fared better than the offense overall but was overpowered by the powerful Elder (OH) offense and Trinity's offense. St. X looked really good against Male and Bowling Green who are not good compared to their storied past teams.

Boyle County one of the top teams in 4A has played very well except the Highlands game which was a 41-21 loss and were missing the #3 rated TE in the Nation in Seneca Driver, who also blew up in social media across the nation after body slamming a Ballard player last night. Boyle County has a good QB with Jhet Raleigh.

St. X will have revenge on the mind but will have to score some points to have a shot at winning. They will also have to stop a formidable Boyle County offense. Does Boyle County have too many horses or do the Tigers get it done at home?

Boyle wins the game but the Tigers might actually score.

X's OLine should be better this week. If that happens, Burmester starts and Highfield gets some carries in traffic and to spell Yates, X gets the win.

So how did the other quarterback do against T? Any stats from him?

I believe it was something like 7-16 for 41 yards. He didn't have any rushing yards because of sacks.

X has 65 total yards.

It will be a struggle against Boyle no matter who the QB is.

Rebels win 17-7

Looking at TP94 ratings, Massey Ratings, and HSratings.com I'm going to say Boyle County by 7. I think for St. X to win they can't turn the ball over like they have in their losses, especially from the QB position where throwing interceptions has plagued them in the losses. I think this will be a low scoring game like last year.

With the Seneca Driver controversy, he will be on the ref's radar and will need to be on good behavior to avoid getting a costly penalty to him and the team.

Yes, he will lay them down gently after the sack or tackle and say sorry if I hurt your feelings.

Was he not ejected ?????

No and he shouldn't have been. A Ballard player also was guilty of a similar penalty that no one has even mentioned.

Doesn't hurt my feelings. I couldn't care less but could be a liability if flagged and he has a history since was ejected previously.

If what you are saying is true bith should have been ejected. To idiotic actions don't cancel each other. It football not the WWE.

I respectfully disagree.

That was about as egregious a foul as I have seen all year.

And, it's not a 'tit for tat' scenario.

His first ejection was having 2 personal fouls called against him for running his mouth. It wasn't due to excessive play.

The fact that the Boyle people can't acknowledge that this is a problem is pretty concerning.
