Just so you know... In Class 5A... Dixie is #1 in team passing HHS is NOT in the top 15 in passing defense Dixie QB Ryan Wilson is #1 in passing Dixie has 3 of the top 9 receiving leaders... Josh Stegner #6 Bobby Leonard #8 Ben Haggerty #9 Don't underestimate any playoff team...Dixie has a lot to prove...and perhaps the means to do so.

The HHS-Dixie game on October 2 was only 7-0 in favor of HHS at the end of the first quarter. At one point in the second quarter the score was 10-3 in favor of HHS. The game was closer than the 52-9 final score might indicate. Dixie had 200 yards rushing and 194 passing...that's not that shabby. Dixie quarterback Ryan Wilson was 19 of 34 for 162 yards and one INT. He also rushed for 118....and he also scored the Dixie touchdown and kicked the field goal. He's probably improved his game since October 2 and so have his receivers. Dixie lost 3 fumbles and had one interception. That's probably the key "stat" for the game. If Dixie can eliminate the turnovers...a big "if" against a stellar HHS defense...this could be a closer game than many think.

Might also want to remember that 70.33% favored Cincinnati St. Xavier over HHS... Dixie might take a little lesson from how that turned out!

Remember this? 11/08/02 HHS 56 Anderson County 0 11/15/02 HHS 52 Scott 0 11/22/02 HHS 31 Lexington Catholic 24 11/29/02 HHS 6 Rockcastle County 45 Wouldn't pay to forget the past and get too overconfident...

http://www.nkysports.com has it at 35-0 in the second quarter

score 24-14 with 8:43 remaining...according to Ryan Ernst at http://www.enquirer.com now 31-14 with 7:16 remaining...also via Ryan Ernst

For what it is worth, Jason Frakes at The Courier-Journal predicts Highlands 34 Whitley County 14. If you match the teams up under the Massey rating system, the outcome is Highlands 36 Whitley County 19. As far as I am concerned, its zero to zero...with both teams at 12-1... and its anybody's game.

final HHS 35-21

1:59 left first and 10 HHS
