They would probably shut them out, and have their JV in by mid 3rd quarter..

I think a program like Trinity always has that target on their back. They have for a long time, everyone wants to be the one to knock them down, so far, not many have been able to. Trinity is an impressive program year in and year out.

This does not surprise me at all. I actually thought they were already #1

You love that one don't you? I think Raider Nation is fine with tissues, I shared some of mine with him..

I don't see them stacking up too many in the wins department this year. Strange that a defending state champ can fall so far, so fast.

I think he would be silly to go to UK, while he would probably get plenty of clock, nobody wants to get their heads beat in every week. If I was giving him advice, I'd tell him to explore other options if he has any. However, UK may be his dream school. I know how folks down in the Lexington area love their Cats, it is possible he "bleeds blue", as they say, and has dreamed of playing in Commonwealth since his pee wee days..

I think a good example of this was shown earlier this season when Colerain played Ryle. Colerain, a traditionally, heavy running team, took this opportunity to work on the passing game. I think it worked out well for them.

Sometimes I think one of the 3rd graders I teach posts on here, that sounds like a very similar comeback that little Timmy uses during recess.. I wonder how he got access to the computer?

Okay, well that maybe makes a little bit of sense, however your excessive use of the word "cupcake" in various context is tiresome, and played out..

You have called the entire program a cupcake multiple times. Maybe you have not done it in this thread, but I have read posts where you attack specific players with your comments. It happens quite a bit actually.

I wish I could hit like more than once.

Actually, I have been fighting a cold, and I'm all out of tissues.. There is such a thing as intelligently "talking smack". Some of the greats.. Ali, Jordan, Deion Sanders, Jim Rome, anyone who played for the University of Miami in the '80s.. What you are doing is not talking smack, it's more like mindless rambling.. Go Raiders..

You know there is more to an offense than a passing game, right? They didn't complete any passes, so what? They scored two offensive touchdowns, and won the football game.

They scored on offense.. Check.. they scored on defense.. check.. Blocked a punt (special teams) to set up one of the offense scores.. Check. Sounds pretty well rounded to me.

90%? Was that information collected in the census? It may be a rivalry for the players, but for adults to post in the manner that you post, is a little much. Unless you are on the team, I don't understand it.

I did not say the OFFENSE was balanced, I said it was a balanced TEAM effort. There are three aspects to a game. Offense, Defense, and Special teams. Ryle had a combined effort to win all three fronts, thus winning the game.

Sounds to me like the 21 points scored against DeSales was a result of a pretty balanced team effort. Not all points have to be scored by the offense for it to be a good win.

There is nothing wrong with having a good team, and being very proud of them.. There is however, something wrong with putting down every other in this manner. I don't think SK has detractors, I believe people are getting tired of hearing it from some people. Simon Kenton is good, they have a perfect record thus far, that does not mean it is okay to downgrade every opponent to the extent of calling them "cupcakes" over and over again. I have no personal rooting interest in this game, but for the simple fact I listed above, I will be pulling for Ryle to absolutely dominate this game.

Is this directed towards me? If so I'm a little confused as to what you mean?

Ryle will be the toughest team that SK has played thus far this season. Why do you insist on repeatedly bashing this team, or whatever team SK plays, could play, or for that matter any team whether SK plays them or not? Remember these are high school kids, they cannot control who is on their schedule. It's a little extreme to continue to call them cupcakes. I think you are single handedly the reason why Ryle has so many votes to win in this poll. It's not because people don't like SK, or are huge Ryle fans, it's because they want to feed you your words..

That would be a good idea.. My point is you are making some pretty bold predictions about SK this year, and I think your predictions may be "writing checks, that the team can't cash".. If SK really does play Scott Co the final game of this season, we will see how good they are, and if they are ready for the playoffs with the "big boys" as some have called them.

New Cath almost did beat SK. If Sk was on the level of the traditional 6A powers, they would have steamrolled New Cath. Not beat them by 8.

We'll find out who 5A belongs to in the coming weeks.. Cooper has been playing well, they could be the "surprise" team on the up note. I don't think many thought that Boone would open the season 0-5 either.

I feel like a good coaching staff is going to have just about the same idea of what their opponent is going to do regardless of hiding plays, formations, etc. Personally I think it's silly to limit your offense, or defense in non district games. It is my belief that a team should use all of their weapons, all the time so they have those formations, and plays down to a science when it matters. If your team is good enough, it shouldnt matter if the opponent knows what plays you could potentially run out of a certain formation, because although they may have an idea, they still aren't going to know for certain. 90% of offensive plays, if executed correctly, are designed to score, so if the defense has an idea of what may be coming, you still have to execute the play. Many times, a team can run 4 or 5 different plays out of the same or similar formations. So showing all of your formations, doesn't really mean your showing everything. I hope that makes sense.. So to answer the question, I am in favor of the "were running in right here, I dare you to stop us" school of thought. Im in favor of putting it all out there, and mastering everyting for when it really matters. Although I think it's always a good idea to have one or two "tricks" up your sleeve, just in case

Going 10-0 is a great accomplishment, it's only week 6.. Going 10-1 is awful.. I do not think SK has played enough competition this year to get them ready for 6A play. They are a good team, and it is possible they go 10-0, doubtful, but possible. I do not see them making it past the first or second round of the playoffs. And I think you posted earlier in the thread they will upset X or Trinity this year? That will not happen, Didn't SK scrimmage X pre-season, and it was something like 60-0? And I know what you're going to say "It was a scrimmage, and scrimmages don't matter.." a 60-0 blowout always matters, SK is not up to par with the big Louisville schools.. Nobody in NKY 6A is for that matter.
