theguru Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I for one say no. I think T's balanced attack will give the Purples fits. How about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braveheart Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 I just can't figure B.G. out, you look at them run out on the field, look over at the other team, and ask yourself if there is anyway they can stay with the purples! I think they have as an impressive looking team as I have seen anywhere, but when they get into a game, they just can't put it together. I am talking about top flight competition in saying this. I reference the past 2 State title games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theguru Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 How do you think they will do against the Rocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodsrider Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 It seems like BG plays their best ball in the beginning of the season. I think with the weak district schedule they have had it makes them soft for the playoffs when they get to good teams. I think they will hand with T but will end up losing by a couple of TD's.

CentreRocks Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 How do you think they will do against the Rocks? How as BG matched up against Lex Cath, Cov Cath or other teams that can run and pass the ball? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PepRock01 Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 I for one say no. I think T's balanced attack will give the Purples fits. How about you? I am inclined to agree with you on this one after seeing what happened to BG agaisnt LexCath and CovCath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Bear Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 I'd really like to know why Bowling Green has flopped the past two years in the title game......they are cranking out more players to colleges than any other school in the state, or so it seems. I say Rocks by 2 TDs at least..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcjkbt Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 It seems that Trinity has not fared very well in first games of seasons - at least in their series against Montgomery Bell Academy of Nashville, nor necessarily in the first few games of each season's schedule. It may be BG's first game too this year - I don't know. I'm hoping Coach Beatty will have the troops ready to play a BG team with loads of individual talent, as I'm told. I think BG will need some long gainers and some spotty offensive play by T to win in St. Matthews. I have no doubt whatsoever that BG is capable of winning. It will be up to Trinity's D to keep it from happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverside 157 Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 OK - I'll go out on a limb here and say Rocks by 35..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurplePride92 Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 It will be BG's 2nd game, they open against Boyle County in the Rafferty's Bowl on Aug. 25 at WKU. I have to agree with the post about BG playing their best early. They have been close with X and I just hope they give Trinity a good game and keep it respectable and hopefully even win. There's something about private schools that BG can't seem to get a grip on. I believe I read somewhere that they haven't lost to a public school in 30 something games. In reference to the last 2 state games, I can only speak on the LexCath game, but BG looked awful and like they were just happy to be there. I watched them destroy East Bullitt the week before, but I did not recognize the team that was destroyed by LexCath. Honestly, they just didn't seem to be ready. I don't know how they looked last year, but from looking at the score of last year's game vs. CovCath, they just may not have been ready again. I do think their district and their region had a lot to do with it. No real challenging games all season and playoffs could give you a false sense of security when it comes to stepping up in the championship game. I don't know what the problem is, but I hope they can fix it this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strongopenyon Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Trinity is balanced and should win, obviously. However, Bowling Green has started quickly in recent years and Trinity has not. Plus, Trinity is breaking in a new quarterback.....a quarterback that will be very well prepared. Rocks by two scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alabama Larry Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 If they can beat the Rocks it will be because its early. As their new QB develops the Rocks will be better late in the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFire Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 The no challenging playoff games doesn't exactly hold water. For the most part, no not many challenging games. But in '05 they only beat Hoptown 3-0 in the region finals and in '06 Louisville Central gave them all they wanted in a 21-14 game. If they had a false sense of security by the time they got to the state finals, they were just writing off the close games as flukes instead of the very real challenges they were. IMO, Bowling Green just ran into better teams. They're a great team, but there are other great teams as well. Trinity is one of those teams.

colonel-fan Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Trinity by 3 or 4 tds in this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock85 Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 I know nothing about BG. Purple fans: Tell us who are uninformed about your team. What type of offense/defense do you run. How is your kicking game? Do you have good team speed? etc. Thanks. :thumb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
