Miles goes buck wild on the cougar defense and SK wins.

 

Don't count on it.:laugh:

Thats funny. :laugh: I guess if that's the case the speed factor will be gone and we will find out who has the better full backs and power game. I will take SKs Jordon Wilson as the best full back in NKY.

 

Conner runs the spread. They don't use a full back.

Game time temp is expected to be in the upper 20's falling to mid twenties by end of the game. West needs to be out there tonight/tomorrow night practiceing the pitch and catch with his crew of receivers to get used to the cold.

 

Conner does not need to water the field down - they just need to do their jobs and remember it is one week at a time. Force SK to pass the ball and lets see how SK handles the pressure.

 

As I said at the beginning of this post, get to this game EARLY!!!!!!!!!!!! Seats will be at a premium, no matter what the weather is! Every Conner alumni, fiend, neighbor, and future high schoolers (with their parents) needs to come to this game and see what HS football is all about...and rooting for Conner would be a great touch!

 

Coach Trosper is saying it like Coach Kelly from UC - "we've done out job as a team - the fans, parents, students, grandparents, mothers, brothers and sisters need to come and support Conner football"

 

So all Conner alumni...get up off your good interntions and be at the field Friday night by 6:30 so you get a seat! And this time, don't leave until the final horn sounds and the game is over, hopefully with Conner on top!!! Either way, I promise you will see one hell of a football game.

I hope it's a huge crowd, and I'm sure it will be. Any word on opening the field for access? Spread the word if you are close to the Cougar administration.

I believe it should be a mass crowd, and a great game to watch. Both team's are great teams. Although, in the very beginning of the season, I would have to pick Conner, but after things started to get rolling I think SK really picked it up and got it going.

 

I"d have to say SK in a close one!

Simon has improved greatly since the last meeting. With the confidence they gained from going to Lexington, I have to pick them to win Friday. 35-28

I think both teams will be "better" this time around. I expect Conner to be ready to advance, but SK has shown me something during their four game winning streak. They knew they were going to win even though they were the "dog" seeding wise on Friday night. In the past they didn't show this type of attitude, it shows me that things have changed in the locker room in Independence. Not just being satisfied by being competitive but expecting to win. Win or lose I expect a great game.

I like Conner to win by scoring two late td's in come from behind fashion...

Conner 20 Sk 19

 

Oh, that happened already. What do they do when Simpson is not having his best game?

 

Conner 24 Simon Kenton 13.

They usually lose, but Simpson did have over 180 total yards the first game and they lost.

I would like to see how Simpson can handle the wet ground and cold temps. I think Conner holds him to under 100yds rushing.

I'm not showing any expected precipitation for this week, why would the field be wet?

I doubt Conner will allow people to be on the track, The 'C' Club pays money to be on the field... so don't count on it.

I think the coach should put some trust in his other backs and take some of the load off Simson. That way if he is not having his best game the other players can pick up the pieces. Let's face it one player does not win a championship.

If SK takes a lead early they cannot take their foot off the gas like they seemed to do last time.

When Simpson needs a break, Marksberry puts either Nik Brown (31) or TJ Dawalt (42) in at RB, and either one of them two will make plays.

 

And your right, one player does not win a championship, the whole team wins a championship. :thumb:
