The Wild Wild West of District 2 offers us its second District matchup of the season as Louisville Holy Cross welcomes in Kentucky Country Day for a big time district matchup. These two have a common opponent in WEB DuBois who Louisville Holy Cross beat, while Kentucky Country Day lost to them. The winner of this one will be tied with Bethlehem in the district and sit at 1-0 in the district. Louisville Holy Cross dropped its first game of the season this past week to Sayre 29-6. They sits at 5-1 on the season. Kentucky Country Day is hot at the moment riding a 4 game winning streak as they dropped the first two games of the season to Sayre and WEB Dubois. Who wins this district matchup?

Kentucky Country Day is on a 9 game winning streak in this matchup.

KCD. 28-14.

This has the potential to be the game of the week. KCD has improved exponentially ever since the final 4 minutes of Week 1 against Sayre. Holy Cross has shown resiliency in early games, winning nail-biters on the road against Dubois and DeSales.

Holy Cross has a MAJOR penalty problem, and that will need to be addressed in a high-stakes game. In the end, I think Davidson, Batts-Hobbs, and the KCD offense will be too much for the Cougars. I still expect a tight game if Hoover for Holy Cross is healthy and good to go. Also, watch for Coach Dick from Holy Cross to open his bag of trick plays. Give me KCD 35-28.

KCD/LHC is one of our Pick 5 Contest games.

I'm intrigued.

I think Holy Cross is pretty good.

But maybe not good enough.
