[Eta Rho]

Colerain lost to USA Today #19 Elder in the Ohio big school playoffs, in double OT.

Just scroll down and click play on the youtube video.

 

For the JC fans, hate to say it, but from the video you can tell that JC is no where near big, strong, or fast as Colerain. Running the ball every play may have worked for Colerain against Highlands, but it WON'T for JC.

Eta Rho is making a strong case to replace westsider as the JC fanbase's most despised BGP poster. :lol:

:lol: I'm sure you know as well as I do that Colerain is just as big in person.

Just speaking the truth my friend. I wouldn't make such comments had I not seen them in person. If you look at my initial posts, I said JC was good as advertised offensively running the ball but running the ball EVERY play wouldn't be enough to beat Highlands.

 

Also I don't think JC has a good enough pass defense to keep the Birds out of the end zone.

 

I know I'm sounding like a homer but having seen both teams, I just don't feel JC is on the same level as Highlands. If anything it will be a shoot out, with Highlands winning since IMO they have the better defense. You can mark it down if you want, but I see Highlands winning by ATLEAST 2 td's.

Hey, I gave an honest assessment of them and gave their offense credit. I just don't think their defense is good enough which means a lot of points for the Birds.

I was at the game and I agree with you to some extent. Highlands controlled the game and was never truly threatened. SC had a good showing and kept the game respectable, but never really put Highlands into a state of feeling the game was close.

 

SC had pulled a miracle upset off the previous week against Belfry (a game all Belfry fans have fresh in their minds this week). That Belfry team would have matched up with Highlands a little better,especially physically, that Belfry team had defeated Ironton, OH that year who then went on to be Runner-ups in Division 4 in Ohio. But, I have no problem saying that Highlands would have beat them fairly handidly as well had they played, at least 3 TD's.

 

BUT, I think it is safe to say that SC played them closer than any other 3A team that year, save CovCath. Highlands went on the next week and beat the stuffings out of Owensboro in the Finals.

 

Off the subject a bit, but SK also gave them one heck of a game, and that season HHS beat Waggener in the finals.

Anyone have the address to JC', field?

I am looking foward to this trip. It's been a while since we have rented a bus and got the band back together. I am also looking forward to finally getting to see Johnson Central and watching a big time football game. I can't wait!!!!

Got room?

I hope Highlands gets #85 more involved this week, he has excellent size. Who is that #69 for Highlands, he is a big boy, but must be really young. With JC being a run only team you have to think he plays some.

I will take Johnson Central in a dog fight, 36-35.

Highlands 42-28.
