Toothpick, we will have to reprint this weekly, you know.

My answer to rattle snakes questions are:

 

I think Mayfield is #1 but it is not clear cut. Previously I thought Bw but the Cards improvement to me has been greater than I expected and I changed my mind.

Why can't Bw win? They can and may but I think they are going to have to get stronger in the passing department. From what little I have watched (2 games and audio of 1) and the stats each week (so I am far from an expert and I realize this so I maybe misguided), the Beechies are way to reliant on the run and I don't see that working against Mayfield who might have the best defense they Beechies will have faced. Vocke and Nasalbaum are great backs, I just don't think they are going to find much weakness against the run in the Cards defense.

Why can't Mayfield win? Sorta the same, a much less potent offense than the past 2 years. I think the running game is better but the passing game is in the hands of a sophmore who is doing well but is not as good yet as his brother was and a line that is good but still a little behind last years. Jackson as a running back is much better and very often it takes more than the inital contact to bring him down. I look for improvement with the return of Higginson to the passing game and this group appears to be faster than last years team.

Bw hasn't beaten anyone in nearly 3 years! True but they do plan on sleeping at the Holiday Inn the night before the game and they did win the NKY frosh championship :deadhorse: Just kidding Beechwoodians, just couldn't help myself on that one. Bw has not won any games they were not suspose to but depending on your view of Mayfield the last couple of years I would also say that they have won all the games they were suspose to and the Mayfield game, if it happens this year, would be a toss up or close to it. I think the point Snake is making is that Bw has not been itself recently. The program is a little down compared to its past. I don't know if it is or not as I have not researched it and don't plan too.

 

Mayfield plays a weak schedule: Last years is likely the weakest I can recall but it made no difference. In my opinion, this years is a little better and certainly it is and has been good enough to provide the team with all the preperation required to win a 1A title. Bw's schedule this year in my opinion, is a little weaker, not their fault but I don't think that a couple of the teams on their schedule have turned out to be as good as everyone expected this year.

 

Any other angles: Who really knows? The 2 are located on opposite end of the state with no common opponets and that leads us all to just be taking shots in the dark at what is what. I doubt any of us have any real idea how the 2 stack up against each other. I do think that the travel might, and I stress might, take Bw a little out of their rhythem but like all the other factors who knows

Very good breakdown of the two teams in my opinion, i could not have said it better, who knows?

Hey snake, you heard anything about Mayfield losing McCalpin, the starting center, with a broken leg? If this is fact that is a terrible blow to an already inexperienced line.

How about Fairview? I know nothing about them!

Ram filled you in, they do play an incredible soft schedule but having said that imo they are very good. Their runnunig game is a strength but they can also throw the ball fairly well. Good defense. Fview has an excellent backfield, one rb aend another lineman out of Hiuntington and Charlseton, WVA. Faiview hasn't been challenged at all this season, I hope that we (Raceland) can give them a run this week. I personally think they could be ranked higher, maybe at 3 behind Beechwood and Myfield but with thjeir schedule its har to tell.

 

BTW Touchdown, welcome to BGP.

As for the weekly Beechwood/Mayfield debate.......flip a coin each week. Both are no question the best i class A.

Haven't heard a thing about the center.

Yea! What if the Jacksons moved out of town tomorrow?

 

Worse yet, Vocke moves to Mayfield!

 

I recall a picture from back at last years state title game where he was caught dreaming of being a Cardinal

Sorry TP, he has more class then that!

Hey, no doubt he is a Tiger through and through but the Bw fans have stopped talking and frankly im bored as there is little amusement with the district games for either. If the Bw posters don't come back on here im going to be forced to make snake start stirring them up again

I think they are wore out or they just know the inevitable. Crunch and vor have lockjaw.

When there is something new to talk about then I am sure all will be well again. I think we are all worn out Snake just by the nature of the thread title. Plus the buzz in Fort Mitchell is the BW Booster Club embezzlement scandle.

Hand in the ole cookie jar. That aint good.

That's for sure. It has nothing to do with the current officers but they are left performing the damage control. $10,000 can go towards a lot of worthwhile causes in a high school program.

What's up Snot??? No lockjaw my friend. I really haven't had a lot of time to waste on here lately. Of course, I guess it doesn't take too much effort and thought to just copy/paste the same thing day after day from other threads like you do

 

Overall, I like TP's post (other than the worn out comment that you two seem to love so much). Man, if BW runs the table that Frosh comment will haunt you in your sleep AND on here TP doesn't feel BW can run on you guys and I certainly don't feel you can run on us. So I guess whoever gets the most solid passing game together over the next few weeks will have the upper hand. Both teams already have to overcome some key injuries so let's hope we're done with those.
