Anyone banking on Lex Catholic being down could be in for a rude awkening...I don't think they're at last years level, by any means, but, the teams who've beaten them, would also likely beat any other team in the state as well and likely just as bad...I think Boyle is definately improved over last year but I still think LCs the team to beat when 4a is all said and done...Lex Catholic 24 Boyle Co 14

I agree with just 4 fun, should be a great game with Lex Cath pulling through with the victory.

Good post...alot of people forget that Boyle the past two years could have easily been 8-3 or 8-4...

 

Just for discussion's sake here is the record from the last 2 years:

 

2007

 

Aug 25, 07 Bowling Green at Western Kentucky University 21 - 49 (L)

Aug 31, 07 Henry Clay home 43 - 47 (L)

Sep 7, 07 Danville away 14 - 21 (L)

Sep 14, 07 Lafayette away 6 - 30 (L)

Sep 21, 07 Lexington Catholic home 14 - 18 (L)

Sep 28, 07 Open home

Oct 5, 07 West Jessamine home 45 - 14 (W)

Oct 12, 07 Mercer County away 17 - 34 (L)

Oct 19, 07 East Jessamine away 41 - 7 (W)

Oct 26, 07 Southwestern home 39 - 18 (W)

Nov 2, 07 Paul Dunbar away 43 - 14 (W)

 

 

While some of the blowouts got out of hand, I can see Henry Clay, Danville and the first Lex Cath game going differently. So with a win in the playoffs vs. East Jessamine, that team could have won 8 games as you mentioned.

 

 

2006

 

Aug 18, 06 Harrison County away 21 - 6 (W)

Aug 26, 06 Henry Clay away 10 - 53 (L)

Sep 1, 06 Danville home 33 - 35 (L)

Sep 8, 06 Lafayette away 33 - 36 (L)

Sep 15, 06 Mercer County away 14 - 27 (L)

Sep 22, 06 Open

Sep 29, 06 Southwestern home 7 - 28 (L)

Oct 6, 06 Pulaski County home 57 - 0 (W)

Oct 13, 06 Marion County away 14 - 6 (W)

Oct 20, 06 Taylor County home 68 - 26 (W)

Oct 27, 06 Russell County away 16 - 8 (W)

 

 

Danville, Lafayette and even Mercer were all games that Boyle was in until the end and could have possibly gone the other way. So you are right, there are 8 or 9 possible wins there.

 

I think the difference was that Boyle had often pulled such games out in the past. In those two years they did not. It appears that Boyle has corrected some of that with a new staff and a good mixture of experienced players and new talent.

I've seen Boyle play-Catholic doesn't stand a chance. Rebels by 10 at least...

BC21 LC14 Wish I could be there.

Boyle Co - A lot

Lex Cath - Not so much

Have you seen LC play this year...I assure you, they'll be alot better than Henry Clay, WCentral or Danville....Not saying they won't win, but, LC actually stands a very good chance....

I agree! I know this is all about predictions but somebody can't just say Lexington Catholic has no chance what so ever. They happen to be a very talented all around team that could do alot of damage. It has already been discussed that Catholic's 2 losses have been against two outstanding teams and although they've been blown out by those teams Catholic is still as talented as they come. I predict a close game.

Boyle wins 28-14
