I think this game will be closer than some of you are predicting! NCC held Dixie to a low score so I'm assuming they have a decent defense. The Holy Cross scores look similar. NCC emptied their bench earlier vs Holy Cross.

I kind of like this trophy!

Beechwood

The Beechwood helmets should just be white helmets with red facemasks. Tiger paw not added until first game of the season.

I would probably say. adults and some kids

I've never seen a picture of the paddle. I guess they selected a paddle because of the river town rivalry.

Don't think it is the trophy that is important, it's the fact that you have it!

News said it started with a battery inside a floor scrubber that started the fire. I'm guessing one of the floor cleaners you see at Krogers going up and down the aisle. I think they play Bullit North.

If someone gets a concussion....at least they got it on senior night! Friday night is less than 48 hours after the fire. A lot to do to make sure the kids are equipped safely and also mentally prepared. The last 24 hours have to have been mentally exhausting! Definitely push the game game to Saturday!

SK is playing a non district game. IMO they shouldn't rush into this one or possibly play it at all. Move game to Saturday.

Sluggish Beechwood gets by Ludlow Sluggish Beechwood gets by Ludlow By Ryan Ernst Enquirer staff writer In a bizarre scene of postgame reactions at Ludlow on Friday night, the winning coach hurriedly left the field in frustration, while the losing coach held his daughter at midfield, looking oddly satisfied. Beechwood, a football dynasty built on discipline and execution, looked sluggish in its 26-0 win over once lowly Ludlow. And with the state's top-ranked 1A team Newport Central Catholic looming next on the Tigers' schedule, coach Mike Yeagle didn't mince words about what his team needs to do. "We got to get a whole lot better in a lot of phases or we're in trouble," he said. "(We have to) make every single adjustment we can make, I can tell you that. Because (NewCath is) a much better football team than us and Ludlow. "... But I don't want to make any excuses. Ludlow played great football and I think they caused a lot of the problems that happened." Beechwood showed how well and how poorly it could play Friday. The Tigers outgained Ludlow 423 yards to 137 and moved the ball at will at times. Junior quarterback Pat Muth opened the scoring with a one-yard sneak in the first quarter, capping an eight-play 83-yard drive. He then found Eric Sawyer for a 27-yard touchdown pass and Beechwood took a 19-0 lead into halftime after Dustin Menetrey's seven-yard touchdown run. But the Tigers also turned the ball over three times in the first half. They accumulated nine penalties totaling 85 yards. On back-to-back possessions in the third quarter they punted on third-and-36 and fourth-and-24. "We absolutely played the worst game I think I've ever seen in my high school career," said Menetrey, who led the Beechwood offense with 154 yards on 27 carries. But while Beechwood's offense sputtered, its defense kept Ludlow out of the game. The Panthers totaled only 54 yards rushing, and couldn't take advantage of two turnovers inside the Beechwood 25-yard line. The teams traded punts throughout the third quarter, before Muth found Chris Curley on a 13-yard pass to start the fourth quarter and end the scoring. Muth finished the game 9-of-18 passing for 188 yards. For the previously unbeaten Panthers, the loss was their best showing against Beechwood since a 29-0 playoff loss in 1999. In the two teams' four meetings since then, the Tigers had won by an average score of 52-5. Ludlow coach Steve Hensley, who last year took over a program that hadn't won in three years, wouldn't claim a moral victory but said he was proud of his team. "Anytime we lose I think we're disappointed. Our only team goal is to win the next game and we came up short tonight, so we have to refocus." Beechwood, ranked sixth in the Enquirer coaches' poll, must also refocus before its matchup next Saturday with No. 2 NewCath. Menetrey said given Beechwood's underdog status that shouldn't be a problem. "It's to our advantage and it's going to get us fired up," he said. "Because we don't think we're getting the credit we deserve."

you forgot Covington Latin! Also how can UK like your post when he is the one that says his team should be #1 all year long? :idunno:

so last year they had the benefit of those games at home!

Fewer voters this week?

Who dropped out of top 10? last week Dixie was #11. Wasn't McCracken #10?

I read significant sarcasm in the original post. Maybe I was wrong.

Who he is rooting for makes sense since wouldn't it create a 3 way tie and a chance for #1 seed?

Comments above.

I don't know for a fact but I think Beechwood is taking the stance we will play where assigned in the 6 class system. I know in the beginning they did not want the 6 classes. I know Highland and Cov Cath asked to move up. Who else?

After jumping to a 34-0 first quarter lead it took the tigers a while to get the next touchdown for the running clock. After the score it was JV/2nd team rest of the way out. Dayton also substituted in the 2nd half. It didn't have the appearance of running the score up. It seemed like first half was varsity and 2nd half was JV. There were kids on both sides of the ball playing hard to the end. Looks like Beechwood did learn something from Mayfield by taking a knee multiple time late in the game to end the scoring.

Still lots of time left

Obviously I was joking. Intended for a certain SK fan!

Probably did it while working with other kickers during practice.

and it looks like Conner scored first in overtime, so they had to hold CCH on defense!
