IMO Cov Cath played closer to their potential than Highlands did.

 

Based on what?

Based on what?

 

Based on past success of both teams.

I will pose this question. Out of the past 3 years, what was Cov Cath's best game? What was Highlands best game?

Decent indicator but doesn't take into account how teams match up with each other.

 

CCH proved to many (me included ) that their ability to run on HHS was grossly underestimated. I'm not sure what HHS can do to stop that without opening themselves up to the passing game.

The same Cov Cath team that was losing to Dixie at half. I like your point that it's how teams match up with eachother, but we also have to take into consideration that this was 1 game, as was the Dixie half (either one).

HHS/CCH will only be playing "one game" in the playoffs, correct?

You don't have to answer if you don't want to. I think that this game doesnt rank in the Highlands top 10 best games out of the past 4 years, whereas this could be Cov Cath's best game. I say this in regards to potential.

First, thanks for letting me know I am not required to answer.

 

Are players from 4 years ago playing? Is AC coming back? Please don't bring back Roller.

 

Come on. 4 years ago? Who cares? It's really simple. This year's teams play each other.

 

Unless we're doing an ESPN poll that's all that matters.

HHS/CCH will only be playing "one game" in the playoffs, correct?

 

Maybe. But to say how good a team doesnt mean the next game will play out that way. Goodness, look when Cov Cath beat Highlands in the past, were those games even close to being the same? Was it 2006 when the first game was a last second pass in the regular season, and the playoffs were not that close. 2001 Highlands in a rout in the regular season, playoffs Cov Cath win. Mud Bowl. Well thats the 4 out of the last 25 games.

 

I just think if there is a round 2, which I believe there will be, that Highlands is going to figure something out on Defense. I think Highlands offense has too many dimesions to it for Cov Cath to be able to slow them down. I also believe that Highlands has better coaches.

In the end you could be 100% correct. However, using anything other than how they match up this year is irrelevant.

Well I dont whole heartedly agree, but that is definately one of the most important factors.

I also believe that Highlands has better coaches.

So are you saying that Dale could coach the CovCath players and win?

That is a loaded question. I will put it this way. If Dale was coaching against a team, Dale and his staff would have a better chance of winning than if Cov Cath's coaches were against a team, everything held equal. I mean come on, the dude has 9 state championships.

 

As far as directly answering your question, yeah they would have a chance. I think some of Highlands players would be worse and some of Cov Cath's players would be developed better. It's pretty simple I think the Highlands coaches are better.

C'mon, the CovCath coaches had 4 chances to win from the 15. I thought Dale and his staff would be given more than a chance to improve 6 measley points.
