5 STAR

Really? :lol2: Didn't know that was a qualification to be a HHS head coach. Keep digging, you might find some bones.

The history of Highlands football is over 100 years. Having the 2nd most wins in the country, people are familiar with the Birds. Take a look at the out of state opponents and see how well the Birds have done over the years. HHS might be at a normal football level now, but over the decades, they have been the cream of the crop.

Serious question here. This is the second year of a two year contract? I wonder what next years schedule will look like. I would be totally SHOCKED if Highlands is even thinking about dropping down a class. What kind of message would that send to EVERYBODY involved in high school football across the state and the country? I believe coaching is part of the problem. How big a part, I really don't know.

Man that was a long qtr.

No comment.

Good time for the Birds to try something new.

What half time adjustments will be made?

Who had the pick?

Time?

Thanks for the updates, keep em coming.

Birds have been bigger underdogs in the past, pulling off huge upsets. Go Birds!!! Game time 7PM?

You want to post a copy of Ryle's playbook? :lol2: :lol2:

Should be a great game. Nothing magical about the titles. They were tough, talented teams with great coaches.

I'll return to this thread after the game, to see how well you did on your prediction.

Now, I'm confused. :idunno:

I guess everybody has their own definition of toughness. Mine is having Sophomores forced into varsity action because of injuries, knowing they have little to no experience under the Friday night lights. The underclassmen need to do their best, that's all we ask. No pressure. Oh, I almost forgot, number of state titles. Got any?

Hmmm....... Ironic that a Ryle fan is telling everyone how to beat Ryle. :lol2:

Some people judge teams by the final score. You want to talk about Highlands loss, but make up excuses why SK only scores 14 points. Will SK drop a spot on the NKY poll?

Highlands had twice as many players get hurt last night on a dry field. Enough said about the field conditions.

Thanks! I tried to order the $40 package on NFHS last week. For some reason it would not let me check out. Is there a package deal through HHS?

No live video or radio? Anybody going to the game going to do updates?

Every football game at all levels has one or two plays that make the difference. Super bowl New England and Seattle is a perfect example. Also the U of L vs. Clemson game where U of L was short on the first down on the game winning drive late in the 4th qtr.

Several years ago, back in the Dale era, students weren't attending the games because they were boring. Nice to see the students supporting the team. I was not able to attend the game last night. Sounds like both teams left it all on the field. I'm sure the Birds learned a lot from this game, and will be looking to improve.

Thanks again for the updates, BJW.
