Speed at a track meet is one thing. Speed after being lit up a few times on a football filed is another. No doubt X will hit you.

St. X. has as much speed as they have ever had. At several positions. They will score at least 6-7 times with their starters. Brian Buehner will keep HC's defense totally off track. He will soon get the statewide acclaim that is forthcoming. They key is can Henry Clay match them. I say no. This is not a track meet. The dominance of the St. X lines will be instrumental.

I am very much looking forward to seeing Brian Buehner play. His daddy certainly could play a little.

 

I wish young Buehner good luck and hope he has a great season.

My prediction is "Pain."

X 65

HC 14

St. Xavier 33

Henry Clay 20

 

Henry Clay is a lot better than some on here think. Their weakness is inexperience at QB, but he may be the fastest in the state.

I really like this Henry Clay team and as the season goes on they will get better! St.X has too much as of right now but should be a great experience for Henry Clay. This is a team that will be a very tough match up for any team come playoff time! They have great talent in all the classes and lots of speed.

The one thing that struck me last week about the Blue Devils is that they play with more discipline than in years past.
