The group of Sr's to be were really strong through CYF and had an excellent freshman team as well. Will likely end up being several Sr's that are first year starters next year. I don't expect to see a large number of soph's that start next year, most aren't physically ready for that anyway. This season we had only 1 sophomore, Jones at LB, who started at the beginning of the season, some other's played some valuable time due to injury, but that was about it.

Might BG's offense have been off due to the CCH defense? CCH D has been really stout all year. However, with all those turnovers CCH never really had a shot once BG scored the second time.

Don’t doubt it one bit. But... lots of kids are great as freshman and don’t continue to progress. I’ve heard great things about both, but they both looked really skinny. It’s a big jump from being a great freshman player to starting Varsity as a sophomore at CCH. Just saying I’m hoping the coaches help them to put on some weight and strength in the off-season so they’ll be in a position to contribute. I’m hoping for big things from both!

Someone pointed out Pitzer to me on the sideline. Looks like he’s already 6’5”. Probably spot on with the 165lbs though. If he’s got any shot of playing next year will need to put 20lbs at least if not more. Probably the same for the Willie R. kid. Heard good things about him as well, but looked just as skinny as Pitzer. Get those boys some protein!

On a more serious note, you don’t agree that teams can “beat themselves” at times? That’s all I’m saying is the BG was better AND CCH executed uncharacteristically bad in the passing game. Don’t understand how that can be a controversial comment or take anything away from BG.

Your right. CCH played the best game they ever have. No mistakes or easy missed throws. Executed perfectly all night, they were just dominated by the best high school football team in KY history. Just lucky they give a 100 I guess. owensboro probably shouldn’t even show up next week.

No need for the may better than talent wise regarding FD. They have much more talent than BG, O, CCH, SW, X regarding D1 talent. They are proving though the last couple years that talent alone isn’t enough to go all the way. I like BG to win next week as long as they can stop the pass.

Clown comment. I specifically said it was BOTH BG being the better team last night and CCH throwing 5 INT’s, which is highly uncharacteristic and several of which were self inflicted with receivers being wide open. Stating facts is not taking anything away from BG. They are a great team that I will be pulling for next week. But let’s not pretend that in football teams can’t and don’t at times “beat themselves”. Which isn’t even my point in this game. Just that it was a factor.

Don’t think anyone said that. Two things can be true, BG was the better team last night AND CCH committed several unforced errors that were a major contributing factor. But if it make you feel better.

He’s looked that way all season, very indecisive. Dropped balls have been an issue all year as well, which I’m sure is a factor as well. Not taking anything away from BG. Really good team. Just pointing out that CCH had their worst passing performance in recent years, much of it unforced. Good teams take advantage of errors, which BG did and made CCH pay for it.

Didn’t see BG other games, so just referencing last night. Didn’t see a huge difference in team speed, though BG did have the edge obviously at QB and RB. I believe total yardage difference was just about 100yards in favor of BG. If BG did have the huge edge as some are saying they should have put up 70 against such a “slow” team that turned the ball over 6 times. Congrats to BG on the win! I’ll be pulling for them next weekend.

No idea about the previous games. But if you watched last nights game they definitely were gifted. Wide open receivers last night and just threw the ball directly to BG on 3 occasions. Two others the CCH receivers just tipped the ball in the air for BG. QB had plenty of time to throw. Congrats to BG on being opportunistic, goes a long way to winning. My point was that in last nights game the TO’s weren’t forced by BG, more unforced errors by CCH that BG took advantage of. Credit to BG in doing so.

If this was your take away I’d ask if you watched the game. BG was obviously better last night, but this is just a silly statement. Without CCH playing their worst offensive game of the year with, much of it self inflicted its a pretty even game. CCH’s D line seems pretty fast as they were in the BG backfield all night. BG obviously had the advantage in backfield speed, but even with that the only explosive play was the QB on the second play of the game. CCH had open WR’s all night as well, just badly missed them or dropped balls that were on target. Weird take to basically say CCH was this terrible team that BG beat by 3 scores while being gifted 6 TO’s.

Agreed. I feel for them, having the last game turn out that way. Such is life at times though. The seniors have a lot to be proud of and had a great run.

I agree that BG was the better team tonight, obviously. However, CCH had WR’s open many times, the QB had plenty of time to throw for the most part. CCH laid a huge egg offensively with the worst performance of the last several years. Much of it self inflicted in terms of the passing game. At least 7-8 on target passes dropped and multiple INT’s that were off target by a mile directly to a BG db. On a couple int’s it looked like the CCH WR’s were practicing the tip drill, with BG coming up behind them.

Has BG played a really strong passing offense this year? Could be an issue against Wimsatt and O. CCH QB had plenty of time to throw the ball and had receivers wide open many times tonight, unfortunately QB was either terribly off target with throws or WR’s dropped at least 6-7 on target passes. Even tipped 3 passes into the air that fell to BG. BG D line does a great job stopping the run, really tough LB’s too. I like BG to win IF their pass D can hold up as well as their Run D when that is the opponents primary attack.

CCH has been $15 all year. This is the first year they’ve even done a video broadcast.

Thanks for the info! Sounds like BG has some real talent. This year with COVID has really put a damper on recruiting, a real shame for these kids. CCH has some kids getting D1 attention as well, just tough when coaches can’t get out to watch the games. Should be a great game.

CCH didn’t have the normal schedule this year due to COVID, however, several of the guys played last year against LaSalle and FD, which I’d believe had a lot more D-1 talent than either CCH or BG. Does BG have any D-1 guys outside of the TE this year?

Very accurate here. Passing game hasn’t been anywhere near last years level, coaches have really scaled it back, part of the reason why you see the QB running so much. On top of that CCH has dealt with some injuries at the RB spot.

Dickhaus was named first team All-Nky for O-line this year. Really strong defensively as well. CCH had two others from their DLine Named 1st team All-Nky. Wilson(jr) and Stegman(sr)

Dale was obviously a great coach. He did also have far superior talent many years as well. That level of talent hasn’t been at HHS for several years now.

True. It's been a dumpster fire recently. Was referring really to just X or Elder really.

THIS. West is a much better job with a much higher level of talent to work with.

Agree here on Eviston. Only high school job I could see him moving to would be one of the big GCL contenders. More likely though the next move would be to the college ranks for him.
