Second Round Newcath / Holy Cross

[Dlbdonn]

Can Holy Cross do what NewCath did to them last year, reverse the regular season result and defeat NewCath in the playoffs , or does NewCath win again ?

[NCC06]

NCC rolls again... They will not play like they did against holy cross the first time... Hc could not move the ball in the first game and look for that to change... but NCC will spread them out and throw all night long...

NCC by 21

[NEWCATH84]

HC like to play the Breds tough but NewCath by 21+

For HC to keep this one close they need another monster effort from Phillip Moore and their defense has to play much better than it did last night

[All Play No Work]

Neither team played very well on offense when they met in the regular season. NCC moved the ball but did stupid things to kill drives. HC ran about 5 different plays all night and ran one of them 70% of the time.

 

So I look for this one to be a little more exciting than the regular season match-up.

 

I think NCC will score more than 14 in this one and I think Holy Cross will score more than 0.

 

Question is can HC make some key stops and can NCC control the HC ground game which seems to be gearing up here at the end of the season.

 

I see NCC winning this game but it is a winnable game for HC if they do things correctly as in no turnovers, force a few turnovers, excell in the kicking game.

[LUCK]

Newport Catholic 21 - Holy Cross 7. NCC scores first and last.

[Juggs]

New Cath by at least 21. Breds are to strong and Tribe will be unable to score enough to keep it close.

[Sting]

NewCath by a bunch...

 

NCC 41

HC 7

[Dlbdonn]

I think that NCC will win this one by 17 points . 34/17

[WiseBred]

Newcath by 28

[NamecipS]

NCC by any amount they want.

 

49 - 14

NCC wins, gotta root for the boys down the street from us. When we're not playing them, which is never anyway. I have a question. How many of HC's players live in Covington/Latonia? I heard that a bunch of players came from Cinci to play there. Any credence to that????

[SLINK]

Newport Catholic 35-6.
