NCC wins because I want them to and I believe they are the better team .:lol:

NewCath's O-line is going to keep punching holes for Kelly and giving plenty of time for Hightchew to throw. They have won big every game so far in the playoffs and seem determined to take the trophy home this year. Congrats to both teams for their great seasons and making it to the big dance! NewCath by two TDs or more.

I've watched some film on NCC, they are big but Murray was bigger overall. AS far as speed I didn't see that much. Apparently you haven't seen Owensboro play, if you think NCC will win by 2 td's, Aces have more offensive weapons than" Carter has pills" . Owensboro did give up a lot of points to Danville however they did turn the ball over three times in their own territory and still hung 61 pts on them.

NCC might win but the Aces will score and score often , so my thinking it will be a high scoring affair but NCC won't keep up and Aces take home the hardware....

This one should be fun and a shootout. 2 really good offenses going at each other. I see something similar to the OC/Danville game. I think it'll come down to which defense can get a stop when they have too.

I think destiny is with the Aces this year.

New Cath is going to win because Beechwood beat them. The last two times Beechwood beat New Cath in the regular season, New Cath went on to win titles. :D

 

Seriously, I have to go with New Cath. I have been saying all year this is one of their most talented teams. They have it all. A top notch RB and QB. A high quality offensive line that has some serious size. They have good skills players at the WR and DB positions. I just don't see any weakness on New Cath. So despite knowing little about OC, I have a hard time picking against New Cath.

How big is this line i have heard so much about over the season can i get a average height/weight?

It is an odd mix. They have two huge guys - 6'10" 330 lbs (yes, no typos in that) and 6'7" 245 lbs. Those two will set up in tandem on either side of the ball. Then I believe they have another fairly good sized lineman at maybe 220 lbs. Then the other two guys are actually not that big, maybe 5'10" 190 lbs, but they are very good. New Cath fans please feel free to correct me or add more details.

I'm not sure who wins this one, this may be the best title game going on between all classes. I know that NC is good from what I've gotten to see of them. I did not see OC play this season, but from what many have said, OC is very good offensively, which I suppose is accurate if they put up over 60 points against Danville. This one could be very high scoring and I believe that the winner will be the team that causes more punts, turnovers, etc.

 

Good luck Breds, bring the title back to NKY!!!

After seeing OC play friday, NCC better hope they get the ball first score and then play ball control. OC has an excellent offense and when you try to cover the pass they had it off to the running back and he runs hard. OC's QB is quick and elusive and throws the ball well, #3 the main receiver is the speed guy on the team. I think the only way to slow down the OC offense is to attack on defense and be very aggressive and disrupt their rythum. Danville couldn't do it, they did a poor job of tackling and didn't attack on defense.

New Cath by 21.

New Cath is big, but IMO the running backs are better than the line is. They had more success running outside the night I saw them play. Defensively they are very solid. None of them were extremely fast, but all of them play the position and play it well.

 

I hope New Cath wins b/c they beat the team I follow, but I felt like any team that could hang 61 points on Sam Harp's Admirals are a state championship team.

They actually put them on opposite sides of the line also. So Jack will play left guard on one play and then right guard the next w/ the TE lined up next to him in an unbalanced look.

Luckily for NewCath they had to prepare for the spread two weeks ago and have played against Pike from Dixie earlier in the year. OC is a team that scares me for sure. NewCath has had trouble on the outside this season. Things like bubble screens and swing passes to quick backs have caused problems, as well as getting off the field on 3rd and long. However, they appear to have turned a corner the past couple of weeks, and I look for them to keep improving. The key to this game will be whether NewCath can continue to generate pressure from just its D-Line. If it can, then I like their chances.
