Best post ever what a great read!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks

St. X is again the favorite to win the State Championship, this being the first 6-A Championship, they will bring home the bacon. Jimmy Ref we all know you are a X parent actual, I believe that you have two sons on the team. Even though you would like for everyone to think that the pressure is on the Rocks, we all know that X is the team to beat. They have beaten everyone badly including the Rocks, and I don't see anyone scoring very much on our great defense, maybe the best X defense ever. So come on be proud that we are going to win it all,the others don"t really have a chance. You may be worried because you have to buy two rings this year.:dancingpa GO TIGERS

Wrong guy. I will buy a ring for volleyball. Already got one for cross country a few years back. Maybe another for football. Only one. Yes I am worried. JK! Watch yourself around Rule 5.

If this tournament is played 50 times I say T wins it 22 times, X 20 times, HC 4 times, Manual 3 times, and Male once. They would have to play this thing 500 times for any other team to have a chance, IMHO.

I like your book but look at the match ups and locations.

 

By the way, I want everyone to know that I do not referee high school football. I am speaking as a fan. No referee would ever make predictions about in a public forum such as this in a sport which they referee. There are a number of top officials who get chosen to referee these games, some of which are on these boards.

 

Here's my prediction with a magical ending.

 

2 nd round X vs Manual at St X- Can X be beaten here? I strongly believe they can be beaten because of the matchup. No one but Manual can match X has on the offensive and defensive lines.

 

Ballard at Trinity- at Trinity - Regular season wasn't that close. Playoff game won't be either.

 

Henry Clay-Dunbar- at Henry Clay. Clay in a rout.

 

Ryle vs Boone County. at Boone Could be the closest game-depends on which Ryle team shows up. The OT team against Boone or the Simon Kenton Dixie Heights Ryle. I think Ryle wins.

 

Male _fern Creek- Good year for the Tigers but not enough to stop Male

 

Marshall County- Davies County- Graves County was the team to knock off Marshall in the regular season. However they lost to Davies so Marshall County repeats the regular season.

 

Meade County- Nelson County- Meade has ripped off 8 straight wins- I don't know enough as to why they lost 3 to start the season but they will double up on Nelson again.

 

Shelby County- Madison Central- rematch of 28-10 win when Alex Mathews got hurt in the game. I think he makes it to the final gun in an upset.

 

Third round- St X travels to Marshall County on the day after Thanksgiving.

Can anyone say General Custer? This will be Marshall County's fifth straight home game and they will be ready.

 

Trinity -Henry Clay- Can Trinity lose this? Yes - How often does T lose a playoff game at home? Once in how many years? It won't be twice unless turnovers become a problem.

 

Male Meade County- Meade County couldn't stop Fern Creek's speed- I think they fall just short against Male.

 

Ryle- Shelby County- Alex Mathews throws for 7 TDs as the evil twin Ryle team shows up.

 

Final Four- St X/Marshall vs Male at Marshall if they win round 3. at St X if they win. Male beats Marshall if they play, st X beats Male if they play.

 

Trinity vs Shelby County- Trinity replaces 400 bulbs in scoreboard as Rocks wins 116-115 as Weitlauf bats away 2 point conversion pass in endzone.

 

Final Trinity vs St X- Revenge factor is at all time high. Trinity fans rent plane to fly "2005 -Deja Vu" over Papa Johns stadium. Dane Spoelker realizes he has some elgibility left and suits up for the final. Sophomore St X starter Brian Buehner who has started the last two games because of injuries has to introduce himself to the remaining Tigers. Norton Healthcare offers to airlift from the hospital 30 of St X's team just so they can watch the game as long as the IV's can be transported. Deuce is healthy for the game but has to play linebacker also. Rick Robey gets U of L to pull the cabooses behind Trinity's bench. Bobby Petrino SR. recently let go by Atlanta, comes back to coach the wide receivers under OC Coach Coverdale. Bobby Petrino Jr shores up the defensive backfield as he enrolls back at Trinity the morning of the December 8th. KHSAA institutes new "Timing Rule" that the finals will be 10 minutes long in order to speed up the game. Since Trinity is the home team and they sold out all of the tickets, X brings their visitor side stands and sets them behind their bench. 5 Trinity alumni named to officiate the finals.

 

I think Trinity should be favored!!!

Meade had 3 thats right 3 tds called back in their meeting with Fern Creek. Over 200 yards in penalties,and still dominated every statistic except for the score,losing 19-14. The officals for that game were investigated and that crew was scheduled for another game at Meade. KHSAA pulled them off for some strange reason??? Now Male does have team speed that can give Meade problems, but if Meade plays team ball and has 11 players to the ball on D anything can happen. But 1rst we must get past a hungry Nelson team that is looking to turn the table on a 45-21 rout earlier in the season.

Its kind of weird seeing the X and T fans argue that the other is better.

 

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

 

That is because they argue about EVERYTHING!!!

X and T are the favorites with Manual a strong third. If X gets by Manual, X is the favorite, unless Finch is out when X plays T in the title game. Then, T would be favored. Sans Finch, X and Manual Friday night will be a doozy. The first X-Manual game was not as close as the score indicated, but Finch is the key cog in X's offense.

St. Xavier, then Trinity, then everyone else, until it is proven otherwise.

I thing that about adequately sums it up...............

Its kind of weird seeing the X and T fans argue that the other is better.

 

:lol::lol: Yea its kind of like Bill Gates and Rupert Murdoch arguing over who has the most money while the rest of us struggle to make our morgage payment.

It's the best time of the year..............!

Well let me think who wins 6A.................Oh yeah St. X or Trinity.

I wonder why the same comments are not being made regarding the 1A title and Mayfield or Beechwood? :sssh:

Any program with 17 titles (with space for #18) and 4 out of the last 5 has to be favored to win it all. Lets face it, they do not get eliminated from this tournament very often...... They are playing as well as anyone at this time, Stein is developing as a QB as well as any Rock has in his first year... Its Trinity's to lose, because they own it.....

 

Good try. X is #1 in the rankings and is nationally ranked. X beat Trinity in the regular season. Logical thinking says X should be the favorite. Sorry Tiger fans, we get the underdog role this year.

Sorry Tiger fans, we get the underdog role this year.

 

And for years to come based on X's dominating performances the past three years on Freshmen and JV.
