Good luck Trinity. Play like you did this past Friday and 4-Peat will be on this years poster. Congrats to SK for making this far, hope you enjoy your stay in Louisville. I predict this game will be like the Trinity vs Ryle a few years ago.

 

 

I was thinking that or "shut the dang door" :lol::lol::lol:

I agree but I have a feeling Trinity will not be at this game on Friday. I'm thinking they will make it to the stadium about 5ish on Saturday. :lol::lol::lol:

 

Tada!!! :lol:

Tada!!! :lol:

 

Nice! :lol::lol::lol:

Let's have some scientific fun with this prognostication. Here's my scientific calculation of final score margin including one actual common component comparison and projected scores if they had played the same schedules from the time in the year when SK "turned it around". Warning - you must have a college degree to follow this thought train:

 

SK actual T hypothetic T point advantage

 

Russell 40-20 Russell 63-0 +43

Campbell Co 15-7 Campbell 49-0 +41

Holy Cross 36-13 Holy Cross 63-0 +40

Lafayette 33-6 Lafayette 65-0 +38 (actual diff)

Conner 46-41 Conner 56-17 +34

Boone Co 14-7 Boone 45-7 +31

Male 28-10 Male 52 - 3 +31

 

 

T actual SK hypothetic T point advantage

Seneca 65-17 Seneca 28-24 +44

Dunbar 56-0 Dunbar 42-14 +28

Graves Co 59-3 Graves Co 35-14 +35

Ballard 37-13 Ballard 24-21 +21

Eastern 63-15 Eastern 21-24 +51

St. X 28 – 21 St. X 14 – 49 +42

 

So, in these projected 13 games (I did not record the Lafayette game twice) T's strength differential over SK was 37 points. Interestingly, in the only game that we can actually compare, T held a 38 point advantage in comparative scores vs. Lafayette. Therefore, I can conclude with scientific certainty (assuming my hypothetical scores are anywhere near accurate) that T will win by 37 points. So, my new guess is 44-7 rather than the inflated 52-7 projected yesterday. And, good news for Pioneer fans, if SK can continue to pick up 8 points every day, by Friday night the margin will be only 13 points. And, better news yet, since we have concluded that T does not plan to show up until 5ish on Saturday, T would only win by 5 points. Any way you slice it, it looks like a 4-peat, dang it!!!

Nice work S-shooter! :lol::lol::lol::lol:

Nice job StraightShooter. Massey has it 45-12.

Still not 52-0.:D

Since SK has improved from the 52-0 loss in 2005, I would assume not. Any team with "the best player in the state" ought to be able to score.

Through 14 games, Simon Kenton has only thrown for 909 yards, an average of 65 yards a game. Do the SK supporters feel they will be successful Saturday with such an anemic pass offense? Is the running game so strong, like Ryle's purportedly was 2 years ago, that SK hasn't had the need to pass?

My two concerns for SK would be the passing game, and their pass defense. They must be able to keep the defense as honest as possible, no matter how good Miles is, he won't be able to succeed without the threat of a pass.

How many TD's did Alexander have when they played Trinity back in the mid 90's?

Trinity will be practicing on Friday after school and knowing Coach Beatty, I fully expect they will have another walk through on Saturday morning just to get them up and moving for the long wait that day. They will be very prepared for whatever SK can throw at them Saturday night.

I cannot decide if the quotes and comments attributed to SK's HC are;

1. What he really and truly believes.

2. Meant simply to "fire up" and movitivate his team

3. Annoy and aggravate T :confused::confused:

I would say it is most likely a little bit of #1 with a lot of #2. Surely he wouldn't want to do #3.
