It will be very strange seeing the Tigers play Manual at St.X! Will the Rams fill the visitors side/ what kind of fans support do they have this year? A new tradition begins with play-off games at home.

Manual has great fan support this year... and from what I understand it won't be very difficult to fill the visitor stands at X (this is my first chance to see it.)

St. Xavier in a close one, 21-14.

The Tigers are just too good for them to lose to the Crimson, just ask any of their players, they cannot be stopped. They will go undefeated and beat Henry Clay in the final 21-0. Go Tigers!!

Is is safe to say that whoever wins this game will be a favorite for 6A title in State Championships? I don't know much about Manual, but I did see X lay the wood to my Birds last year. Well, I picked X, anyone have a reason that I am wrong????

C'mon on Manual!!!!!:dancingpa

At a minimum I would think that two time defending champion, strong pre-season favorite Trinity would dispute that assertion. The Rocks seem to be picking up steam to unleash a powerful stretch drive from what we glean from their fans' posts.

St X 28

Manual 13

Good Call! I completely forgot about Trinity. Oops! Well, atleast we know that it will be atleast 1 Louisville team in the title game as usual. Almost an unfair homefield advantage.

This year there is the possibility that we will have 2 Louisville teams in the 6A finals again.

Three in the final 4.....

Too bad there aren't 4 districts in Louisville, then we could have the final 4. :lol:

Yes, I agree that Ballard, Fern Creek and Manual can be in the final four.

I feel in this matchup St.Xavier will have the edge. They may not have Deuce but they have a good stable of backs nonetheless. As has been oft mentioned in this thread the deciding factor will be the Tiger defense. They stuffed the Shamrock offense better than Cincinnati St.X did, and as such I think they will come out with the win at home this Friday.
