Dixie 37 Simon Kenton 34 3 OTs
I'm with cshs81 on this one. While it is a hero or zero call, why risk being a zero when you don't have to be a hero? Stopping SK on 4th down was a huge emotional lift for Dixie, something Dixie very much needed and wouldn't have gotten if SK punts the ball. Also, didn't SK make some poor decisions in the closing minutes of last years game with Dixie? I'm trying to remember the details but it seems to me that SK made some poor decisions that didn't run as much time off the clock as they could have and Dixie scored the winning TD with only 9 seconds left in the game. IMHO, Dixie doesn't win either game if SK makes different decisions down the stretch.

Dixie/Simon Kenton Updates
Dixie 14 SK 7 Halftime Dixie scored early in the 1st Q to go up 7-0. They extended that lead to 14-0 on an 80+ yard run by Moloney. SK came back on a nice drive to score on a pass from Elbert to Ponzer. The game got sloppy right before half with each team turning the ball over. Currently the game is delayed due to lightning.

Dixie 27 Campbell Co 8 Dixie got on the scoreboard first with a TD pass to Ben Haggerty (#3) early in the first quarter. Haggerty also ran in the two point conversion to make it 8-0. Campbell Co tied it up on a short 2-3 yard run by Austin Johnson in the second quarter. The two point conversion tied the game and the teams went into halftime at 8-8. Haggerty took the second half kickoff all the way to the house. The two point conversion failed and Dixie led 14-6. Dixie extended it's lead on a short TD run by #24. The extra point was good to make the score 21-8. With about 4 minutes left to go in the game the reserves entered the game for both teams and Dixie's reserves scored the final TD in the closing seconds of the game. I was impressed with both teams. For Campbell Co, Johnson, Shea, and Steffen looked good. The also had some size on the line. Dixie seems to have excellent overall team speed.

Is the Butter Slipping off of Rosie's Biscuit?
Certainly there are degrees of evil and in no way did I intend to imply that Marx was as evil as some of the others that I listed. However, he was more than an academic discussing social philosophy. He actively advocated violent overthrow of the existing social order with the goal of replacing it with a social order based upon his flawed theories. His Communist Manifesto is a call-to-arms to workers, a call that was taken up by Lenin and others. That's enough to make him both a radical and someone who promoted evil. However, it doesn't raise him to the level of a Stalin who played an active role in killing millions. I had thought about listing Stalin but I chose Lenin instead since Lenin played a bigger part in the Boleshevik Revolution and therefore better fits the desrciption of being a radical. I would characterize Stalin as more evil than Lenin since Stalin was guilty of killing many more people than Lenin but Lenin was capable of ruthlessness also. Lenin also played a key role in establishing the form of government which made Stalins crimes possible so he can not escape being tainted by Stalin.

Socrates, Jesus Christ, Galileo, Thomas Paine, Thomas Jefferson, Frederick Douglas, and Martin Luther King were all radicals in their day. So were Henry VIII, Karl Marx, V.I. Lenin, Adolph Hitler, and Osama Bin Laden. Strictly speaking, being a radical means you advocate drastic change and says nothing about whether that drastic change is for good or evil.

Dixie 35 Scott 0
I thought this was surprising: First score in the new stadium was by an offensive lineman. He recovered a fumble in the endzone. The second score in the new stadium was by a defensive lineman. He intercepted a pass and returned it for a TD. The third score was by a defensive lineman. He tackled the Scott RB in the endzone for a safety.

Dixie 35 Scott 0
Dixie's defense played well. Dixie's offense did not. Dixie's passing game in particular needs work. Bricking was not very accurate with his passes and he still needs to improve in making his reads. He threw into double coverage numerous times. Also, the receivers need to improve in running their routes. Also, the offense had too many penalties. The score could have been much worse if Dixie would have just eliminated penaties. Dixie must have had 5 or 6 holding penalties including one that called back a 50+ yard TD run by Moloney. As far as the officiating, I thought they almost always made the right call although they sometimes took some time to get to it. I thought all but one of the holding calls was a good call. All the offsides I thought were correct. Putting the ball on the 20 yard line, when Moloney muffed the punt and the ball went into the endzone was the right call even though Moloney tried to take the ball out and was tackled at the 1 yard line. I thought that awarding the ball to Dixie at midfield after Scott recovered the punt after a Dixie player touched the ball was the correct call because the Scott player interfered with the Dixie's player's opportunity to catch the punt.

Scott vs. Dixie Predictions
I believe that Scott will be up for this game. It's a natural rivalry even though Dixie hasn't lost in this matchup in decades. Scott's confidence and Dixie's lack of putting the pieces together just yet will keep this game from being a total blowout. I look for Dixie to gradually pull away. Dixie 31 Scott 14

Scott Co. 31 Boone Co. 26
I do. Yes I was being sarcastic. While NKY 4A isn't quite where they should be they aren't "embarassing" like the title of one thread suggested. The fact that Boone can hang with a BGP 4A Top 10 team shows that they aren't nearly bad as the adjectives that have been used to describe them.
-
Scott Co. 31 Boone Co. 26
If the best that Scott Co can do is a 5 point win against a pathetic NKY 4A team their in for a long season.

They were supposed to play SK yesterday (Thursday). I don't know the score because I'm in Houston right now.

Covington Catholic at Elder (OH) Predictions
Dixie earned a victiry over a GCL team when they beat LaSalle at Nippert a few years ago.

Freshman Football
For NKY Big School: Highlands - They've reeled off 27 straight wins and the Highlands faithful are talking about 10 more so they'll be #1 till somebody beats them. CovCath - They're always good and there is no reason to believe that this year will be any different Campbell Co - They have good numbers and if Austin Johnson plays frosh ball and not JV then they should contend. Simon Kenton - Miles Simpson should keep them competitive. Dixie Heights - From what I'm hearing from Dixie's frosh coaches Dixie should be very talented. I understand they have a very good FB/LB and excellent overall team speed. Ryle - I hear they should be solid Holmes - I expect them to be typical Holmes. They'll have several nice players which will mean they'll win some games but not enough to win the conference. Boone Co - Don't know. Haven't heard much about them. Conner - Don't know. Haven't heard much about them. Scott - They should struggle.

I got to give it to you free thinker. You're an equal opportunity offender.:lol:

Conner 14 South Dearborn, IN 7
How should I interpret this win for Conner? Is South Dearborn any good this year?
-
Campbell Co. 70 Bourbon Co 0
If Campbell emptied the bench, did frosh Austin Johnson get to play? If he did how did he do?

Simon Kenton vs LLoyd
I like SK big in this one. SK 40 Lloyd 14

Dixie Heights at Highlands
My understanding is that this is a Highlands home game this year and next year it will be a Dixie home game at Dixie. They simply swapped what year the home games would be because of the construction.

Dixie Heights at Highlands
Where he is from depends upon the thread and what will stir the pot the most. When CovCath plays Elder he'll be from Elder. When Highlands plays X he'll be from X.

Scott vs. Holy Cross (covington)
The best case scenario for the Eagles is a 3-7 season. Worst case is 0-10. I think they beat Carrol Co and lose to everybody else and go 1-9.
