The Douglass offense surprised me against Male. I didn’t think they would be able to move it at all and they did a great job. If the Douglass offense can effectively move the ball against Trinity they have a shot. The problem is the Trinity offense has come alive behind their freshman QB. I think his ability to move the ball on offense mixed their great defense equals a win this time for Trinity. Rocks 27-14

The Catholic offensive line will be the difference down the stretch. When the game is on the line and Catholic needs crucial 1st downs the Catholic Oline will get the job done. They are battle tested and ready for the moment. Knights 24-21

Male by 17. Male will shut down the Douglass offense and push it out in the 4th quarter.

Knights roll.

When is the last time Franklin Co beat Catholic? They clearly won't shut down their run game, I said they would score 24. In order to stop the Wing T/Double Wing, you must be discipline assignment football. Catholic will do that. It will come down to tackling them in the open field

As much as I want Douglass to pull this off, I don't think Douglass has enough fire power to keep up with Boyle. Give me Boyle by 17...10 point game and Boyle scores late in the 4th to make it look worse

If Catholic can force Scott Co to go away from their base inside run, I think they win. If Scott Co can get 3-5 yards every run play that sets up their misdirection/big hit run game. I think Catholic is big enough and discipline enough to get stops. I got Catholic 27-24

Woodford got a taste of what it's like to play a tough schedule week in and week out for the first time in years. It's easy to get up for a big game when you only have one big game a year. The kids are confident, the coaching staff can save some calls for big moments and the kids (most importantly) believe they can win. When a team plays a tough game every week they have to be able to handle the emotional roller coaster of an up and down season. That's difficult for a lot of kids to handle, especially when there is a QB controversy. The coaching staff has to show their cards in order to win games which develops tendencies. I think Ballard wins big and I could see Dixie Heights beating them in the first round. Dixie is battle tested and has enough to make it a game. Will Woodford be able to handle the pressure of being a big dog and supposed to make a run? I could see them buckling under the pressure

Are we sure this is the case? All the boys who actually transferred were rumored to transfer prior to any coaching decision being made. I don't think Clevenger getting the job changes their decisions.

Catholic in 2019 with Beau Allen and crew gave them everything they wanted. Heck 2 Douglass coaches were pushing and shoving on their sideline during the game.... It's sad this game has to be played at noon on Saturday. This should be a very exciting night in Lexington for 2 public schools and communities. It's a shame a small amount of people are allowed to ruin the atmosphere for everyone else. Both of these football programs have done a great job over the last several years building their programs to be top programs in the state. These programs deserve this stage That being said...I think this is a 4th quarter game but Douglass makes the crucial plays late to secure a 10 point victory.

If Catholic didn't have to go through Boyle I think they would have 5-7 State Championships. Catholic has 2 titles, 05 and 07. The 05 team didn't play Boyle (I believe Catholic wins if they played, that team was loaded) and the 07 team beat Boyle in the regular season out of district. In the late 90s and early 00s, whoever won that game was going to win the title. Boyle came out on top. Same can be said about 09, 10, 20, & 22. The players and coaches have the ultimate respect for one another. Catholic will give Boyle their best game this season.

An in state kid that runs a 4.3-4.4 laser does. We're not talking about a freshman that Marrow is doing a favor

We all know when a SEC offer comes (UK) others will follow, it's a domino effect...I don't know the young man or his family personally but I'm not going to assume they couldn't get him to camps without Boyle Co. I think most families see it as an investment. The family pays the 20-50 dollar camp fees in hopes their son gets a full ride scholarship that can change his life forever

He has earned his offers at camps not because he plays for Boyle Co...

I wasn’t told why he was ruled ineligible but the kids at Catholic heard he was. I would assume they will attempt to appeal but I don’t know anything about that either…I would hate to see such a talented kid not get to play but I’m sure Boyle’s opponents are happy to see they don’t have deal all that talent on one team

Demauriah Brown was ruled ineligible at Boyle Co. It will be interesting to see what he decides to do. Does he sit out the year at Boyle or go back to Danville?

Baisch (pronounced Bosh).

Danville's OC is very accomplished throwing the ball. Haddix is great no question, but Danville will look very different this year IMO.

Much better job...

Fields did a great job at LC in his time there. That would be a home run.

They changed the rule for COVID last year. Coaches can go from 10 to 10

I think two good teams played their first game of the year. I’m not sure it’s embarrassing for anyone.

Will the NCAA allow Chuck to go to WVU? I thought coaches had to be two years removed from a player before they are allowed to coach them in college. With Reese Smith going to WVU, I don't think Chuck can follow him up there...I could be wrong though.
