Can Corbin end a 2 game losing streak to the Breds? Will home field be too much for the kids from NKY to overcome?

Corbin should be able to pull this one out...But if they blink just once it's over and NCC will move to the championship game in Bowling Green.:thumb:

I'd like to see Corbin pull this one out but I got NCC winning this one.

Hounds take em down!

 

Hounds 42

Breds 28

 

They will not score 42 PTs. NewCaths running game is too good to give Corbin that much possession.

I'm hoping that Corbin can score 21-24 points, that may not be enough, but it will give them a shot.

Newport Catholic 28-14.

Two things work in Corbin's advantage in this game. 1. Team speed on Defense. This bunch absolutely flies around like wild men. 2. Special teams. Corbin has been as good of a specials teams team as I have seen during Jewell's time as head man.

Team speed may actually work as a hindrance due to NewCath's offense. As for special teams....yikes. NewCath has returned 2 punts for Tds during this playoff run. Their kick return is solid and their kicker is good. That being said, their kick coverage and punt coverage is not good at all. Part of the reason that NewCath has given up 63 pts in 3 games is that teams are starting their drives on such short fields.

Corbin is VERY GOOD in the return game. It's so hard to prepare for because you never know if it's going to be a reverse, fake reverse, or taking it up the middle. I would love to see Corbin's starting field position average this year. It would have to be close to midfield. Corbin's kicker has also been putting kickoffs into the endzone quite often as of late. He really has a leg on him. The punter does the rugby style and while he doesn't have the strongest leg, his style allows a low line drive kick that generally gives a favorable roll.

 

Another thing that could pose some problems is that when you look at Corbin's line, they will not appear big at all with the exception of Marquis McGee #74. They are very very strong though so the NewCath line advantage may not be as big at one would think at first glance. Although the Hounds do have a 6'5" 350 pound freshman but he doesn't play much this season.

NCC is Thoroughbreds. Could someone correct the poll spelling?

NCC has a solid running game on offense and good line backers on defense. But I must admit I do not know much about Corbin. I'm still taking NCC in this one. 35-17

NCC's line play has been outstanding all season. Breds win 35-13.

Its hard to beat anyone 3 years in a row. I'll take the Redhounds with the upset 28 to 21.
