I think the better question is Do 68% of you honesty think St. X will beat the Highlands Blue Birds Friday, or are you picking St. X because you are a St. X fan?

 

 

I think honestly most on this thread would love to see HHS win, but the reality of it is, they won't!

 

It isn't a hate HHS vote at all, it's a vote of how good St. X is compared to HHS this season and I think my question is a whole lot more relative than yours!

Oh BTW why is HHS stealing the thunder of the Silver Grove and it's Big Trains by blowing a Train whistle when scoring a TD?

 

I mean where are there even railroad tracks in downtown Ft. Thomas?:idunno:

 

Personally I think they should use this sound when scoring a TD! Click here

I "think" it's supposed to be a riverboat whistle. But we do have train tracks running the entire length of the east side of Fort Thomas.

Along the River?

 

I thought you might get a kick out of the Eastern Bluebird Song!

Good luck Highlands! You have a very good team... BUT, the Bombers are loaded this year. X by four touchdowns.

Yeah. In fact, they're the same ones that go on down through Silver Grove.

 

I don't think that particular sound would provide quite the intimidation factor we're looking for.

I'm glad you asked this question because you've given me an opportunity to distinguish the Highlands program from others. If the Highlands Bluebirds were playing the Chicago Bears today there isn't a doubt in my mind that every player on the Highlands football team and most of the Highlands faithful would genuinely believe that the Bears were going to get a butt whipping today. Everyone not only believes in the mission but more importantly know it's going to be accomplished. No other thought to the contrary enters the minds of these players or most of the Highlands faithful. Yes it's true that the 31 or 32% that pick Highlands to win probably are fans. But I would be shocked if any thought it wasn’t truly going to happen. That's the difference. Call it lunacy or whatever, but it is a genuine earnest belief. Highlands fans, players, ect.. will never hang their hat on playing teams close regardless of who they are or where their from.

Highlands defense just won't be able to hang with St. X. The offense should be able to for a while, with the passing game, but Highlands is about to go up against a team with more size and speed than them which is something they never see in KY. It'd be a great story for NKY and Highlands if they pull it off, but if you look at this realistically, it won't happen. St. X by 2 Tds.

The St. X coach is a defensive guru who is asked to speak at coaches clinics all across the country. Much like Trinity's Beatty and Coverdale do on the offensive side of the ball.

 

I look forward to seeing this game. I will be rooting for Ky and HHS.

Bombers win by 5 touchdowns at a quiet stadium in Ft. Thomas.:sssh:

I have a hard time seeing how the Birds can hang around in this game or score more points vs. the Bombers than X or T. So, I would guess something like 41-10 would be in order. Props to the Birds for scheduling the game.

FIND THE WAY TO WIN!

Do 32% of you honesty think HHS will beat Cincinnati St. X Friday, or are you picking HHS because you are a HHS fan?

 

If you 32% had to stake all of your football knowledge/reputation on this game, and this game only, would you still pick Highlands to win?

 

To me at least, there is a huge difference between hoping, praying, loving to see, and indeed they will win and I stake my reputation/knowledge of football on it!

 

Honest answers only please!

 

And before you ask (as I know someone would if I didn't post this), no I would not vote for CovCath to beat Cin X this year.

Best of 7 series I don't think the Birds win. One game, who know's. A few breaks here and there, you never know.
