5A #1 Covington Catholic vs. 1A #1 Beechwood

If Beechwood's (2-1) loss last week to Corbin takes any of the shine off of this match-up, it's minimal. This is still #1 vs. #1. Reigning 5A champion vs. reigning 1A champion. In theory, CovCath (4-0) should dominate this series. But Beechwood has had its share of success against the much larger Colonels. Only Highlands and Newport Central Catholic have more wins over CovCath than Beechwood's 15.

It’s been very one-sided in CCH’s favor since about 2004 with Beechwood getting only a couple of victories that I can remember.

That being said I said all offseason that Beechwood is as good this year as they have been in a long time. I expect CCH to win by multiple scores, but the KY running clock streak to end.

Since the series resumed in 2003, Beechwood has 3 wins. But most of the games have been competitive till the success the Colonels have had the last couple years.

Covington Catholic wins by 28+.

I suspect the Lord doesn't interfere in football game outcomes, so I don't seeing David getting Goliath this time.

Cov. Cath. domination. B.W. Coaches, please don't run your QB 10+ times in this game, as he'll get killed against this very tough defense. Think about the long-term "team goal" for the season. Is it really worth the risk ?

My annual Beechwood vs. Covington Catholic post:

These two teams have played one another 37 times over the years. The only teams that Cov Cath has played more games against are Highlands (67 contests between the two schools with 19 wins in the Colonels' favor), Dixie Heights (44 contests between the two schools with 37 wins in the Blue Colonels' favor), and Boone County (38 times contests between the two schools with 26 wins in the Colonels' favor).

Hate to say it, going to be a long night for the Tigers, running clock in the 2nd quarter I'm afraid

This thread has been awfully quiet?

I'm guessing another big crowd in Park Hills on Friday?

I'm guessing another big crowd in Park Hills on Friday?

It’s “Future Colonel Football Night”, so I am sure there will be a lot of youngsters in the crowd. Braveheart game for the Crazies.

Will this game be broadcast on the internet?
