Elder loses at " the pit " again. (Highlands/Elder Predictions)

[hoosierbirdfan]

Elder lost to Bishop Chatard (In) 28-27 in double overtime on a 2 point conversion .

 

Highlands should not and will not be intimidated by the atmosphere at Elders home field .

[ThrillVille Cardinal51]

Intimidated? No. Highlands should not make the mistake of takimg them lightly. The game will probably be close.

Elder has played the most difficult schedule in the country I'm told.

That sounds great !! I'm not saying it will be a "walk in the park" for the Birds . These are some tough Birds and I'm sure that they won't back down from anybody , anywhere !!

[hrcarrier]

Highlands is not going to overlook Elder and I don't think that Elder's losses will make the Birds think anything different.

[Sandman]

Elder has lost six games.

 

Five of them have been to teams that have been ranked in the USA Today Super 25 at some point this season.

 

So, yeah they've played a tough schedule.

[Clyde]

Elder is currently about 23rd in the Harbin ratings for their region. They're not making the playoffs.

[Just Win]

I believe this is Elders senior night also.

You've been told wrong.

 

It is very, very difficult though, no question. Add to that fact that Elder is a horrible football team, and that explains the 6 consecutive losses.

Elder has played eight football games. Five of them have been against teams ranked in the USA Today Super 25 at some point this season. Just curious, who tops that?

I believe it's Maxpreps ranking. If someone is a member, can you please verify for me.

I think this is key. What will the mind set of Elder be? Does the Highlands game not matter since they will not be in the playoffs and have defeatest attitude? Do they relax and throw everything at Highlands and have the game of their lives?

By Elder standards playing that schedule, maybe. Bet a ton of schools would love to have that team though.

Recipe for disaster in my opinion! Remember all, this is Elder at the "Pit". Now I do think the Birds can win. Just how many points has Elder lost their 5 other games (less Trinity of course because College caliber teams don't count)? It's probably not that much. Birds need to play a perfect game. Again, it's still Elder!

Those are great questions . IMO , Elder will approach this game just like any other . With the schedule Elder has , they might be thinking that THIS is one game that they should win. They would HATE to lose to two Ky teams in the same season . I say they throw everything but the kitchen sink at Highlands !! Go Birds !!
