Why do you think any of these teams would duck the others? It has been pointed out that year after year after year all these teams are scheduling teams at least as strong as the other two. Your argument continues to make no sense until you answer why a team would duck one team and replace it with an equally or often stronger team. Trinity, St X and Highlands have all played Elder, Colerain or Cinti St X in the past. Do you really think they would duck the other KY schools to play the Cinti powers? As to the state's credibility, it is strengthened when these teams play out of state powers, not when they play within the state.

 

So you don't think it is weird that the two schools tied with the most state championships in the state have played only TWICE? Okay.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD....can't you all EVER just ONCE stay on topic of a thread?

Unfortunately some folks, when they have an ax to grind, don't worry about which room the grinding wheel is located.

Hey, I'm not going to sit here and say I never do it. But if and when I do, I try to make light and have a little fun with the thread. Its just getting really old....almost to the point I don't want to read many BGP threads. I open/read threads because I really want to read what happened in a game!

 

So can anyone tell me some specifics about this game?

Highlands won 28-14.

You should know by now that it isn't gas sniffing ! It's the cool-aid (blue) , and we don't sniff it , we drink it !! We drink the stuff like it's going out of style , try some , you might like it ! :laugh:

 

I think the fine establishments in Independence ordered a batch from Ft. Thomas, I tried it last week its very potent. For a week it had me believing SK was unbeatable this year in NKY 6a, then I snapped out of it...But SK is still on the right track as a program, o and Highlands would have their jv in at half vs X....I think ukfan got some of the blue juice from Bluebird nation also, he overdosed on it!

Way to not answer a direct question. HRIOAOAOAOAOA...........

As noted, Highlands won. Highlands D played very well; X' 14 points came on a late first half TD when Highlands potched a punt and gave X the ball on Highlands 5 yd line and the second TD came on an interception return. I was pleasantly surprised to see X passing the ball a fair amount. QB looked very good throwing the ball. X had a nice running back also. O line was not the prototypical big X linemen. I left the game wondering if we will see a more diverse O out of X next year.

 

Highlands O looked good, but they had to work hard for every yd and every TD against X. X has some nice players on Defense too. Highlands QB (McCoy) had some very nice runs at critical times and had some nice passes too. He had a couple of "just missed" on a couple of deep passes.

 

All in all, a very entertaining, hard played game by both squads. Which is what we should be talking about instead of the garbage about how the varsity teams would fare if they played and why this team isn't playing that team. That stuff coming from adults is pretty disappointing. While I've learned during my ten years on here to expect those type of comments from adults, its still disappointing. Only silver lining is that, as to those posters whose identity I know, their posts gives me some additional insight into the type of people they are.

Gee...thanks for the news flash Walter!

Thanks LN.

 

X JV QB Bollinger?

Getting back to the game, I thought HHS offense looked a bit flat except for McCoy. There were more than a few times I thought he was sure to be tackled only to see him elude guys for 5, 10 more yards - so fun to watch the way he can turn on a dime and go left or right to make something out of nothing. Having said that, you cannot base your offense solely on your QB getting all your yards. St. X did a good job of shutting down #84 David Christian who may have had only 1 or 2 catches all day if I remember correctly.

Defense looked outstanding. I thought #66 Sam Chambers had an all-star day for the Bluebirds defense!

If not for our mistakes, St. X would not have scored in this game. Punt team needs some work but they'll get there!

Love the enthusiam shown by St. X fans with their group cheers. We only got a small taste but I can't imagine heading into their home turf and having to endure that nonstop during a varsity game!

So I guess unless we are all saying how super these guys and the programs are, we are bad folks. Sorry I don't subscribe to that happy notion.

I thought boards were to talk about things of note-not just report the score to those who might not have been there. And if you note in almost every single thread about Highlands somebody says something about "what if the varsity played" and it usually isn't me. So happy happy joy joy the Bluebirds are the best jv and freshman team in the state. So what?

Has WR Jac Collinsworth being seeing action in the JV games this season? I understand he was hurt earlier this year.
