Western vs Highlands Prediction Thread

Who wins and why??

[Sandbagger]

Not sure yet. I've been told Western is extremely quick. I saw they beat Lou. Male 18-3 Friday...I would think Western needs to score more than 18 to win in Ft. Thomas.

I've heard they're a cross between Louisville Central and Lexington Bryan Station. Saw many of their linemen @ the HHS-Trinity scrimmage and they looked big. I'm thinking Cincy Withrow.

 

HHS will need to tackle well.

Birds win this one by 3 TDs.

 

HHS 42

Western 21

Birds should win, if they don't give the ball away. Western has a D-1 safety, coaches son #12. Depth will hurt Western. Western is a nice team, but I have not seen the Blue Birds.

Western is very good this year, but Highlands is on a completely different level. Western is a great story.

[gamehuntr]

Western's #7 carries the load as RB and LB. He will have to be wrapped up to go down. Birds may see some mismatches with size and strength, but Towles and company will score early and often.

 

One game at a time.

[MBKT]

The Highlands offensive scheme will give the Western defense fits.

 

Western will score, Highlnds will score more.

Judging by the rankings, there's a good chance this is a preview of the state championship game.

Highlands 45-14.

Well put.

Is Western the 4A West favorite to play in the title game?

They've been playing themselves into that role. Collins and maybe North Oldham are really the only two in their region I think might push them. In Region 1, you have Madisonville, Franklin-Simpson, and Owensboro now. Lone Oak was the favorite, but with the losses they suffered, it really might have paved the way for Western.

Highlands in a big way. Their offense is simply too good to be stopped by anyone not named Trinity, right now.

 

I'd be surprised if this one was within 3 td's.
