Is it possible they play each other in the state championship?

Boyle looked more like themselves in the second half. Potential Rematch will be some primetime football watching.

Congrats to Birds on a signature win!

How much time is left?

Wow. Really tough for Boyle to come back now.

I'm shocked. Unreal. Hopefully Highlands finishes this. Holy moly.

Boyle Co 31 Highlands 34 I heard Boyle's QB was also out in addition to the suspension of Driver. Unreliable source, just wanted to see if there was any truth.

Shouldn’t be… but it will be. They’re not really there yet. Lots of on-field learning needed for birds.

Highlands rebounds and wins in a close one. Cooper 28 Highlands 30 Highlands defense wore down in the previous game and it really showed. If the offense makes as many mistakes and turnovers as they did in the previous game, this will be a nail biter.

I think they are well conditioned. Guys going both ways in a humid environment. First game of the year. The 4-0 turnovers were brutal. Birds will bounce back. That’s a really good Douglass team.

I think that’s most tired I’ve seen a Highlands team.

Two sophomore QBs leading two tier one Kentucky programs in a big-time season opener. Looking forward to this one. The defenses will control much of the game and FGs will decide the final. Bluebirds 27 Broncos 24

During the Blue / White game tonight Highlands is honoring the 96 State Championship Team that went 15-0. This was Dale Mueller’s first championship team. Lead by captains Justin Frisk, Toby Hlad, PJ Sauer and Brady Grimm. Legendary coach Jim “Red Dog” Daugherty passed away during this season and was a huge inspiration to the team. Highlands kicked off the season upsetting Lou St Xavier and capped off the season defeating Hopkinsville in the AAA State Championship.

Brutal matchup for week one. I know Elders all world QB is returning but will they be better than last year? Their OLine was nasty last year. Win or lose it’s good preparation, won’t see anybody better in KY.

Considering the Birds schedule that would be really good. Birds are looking prepared and have a ton of talent. Excited to watch them this year, seems like they could make a run at state. Ryle graduated a ton of guys. They will improve, they just need some time.

How is the OLine looking?

Highlands should be good this year… but this still Male we are talking about. Highlands 28 Male 26

I think if that’s the 77 team, I think QB Kevin Shupe is number 9? I could be incorrect.

Ben Kuhnhein should be a player to watch this year. He will be a junior. I saw him play some last year and he looked ready to start then. I’m not sure if he will stay a DB or move to LB, he is starting to look more LB…

Any updates to the summer development of the Birds? How is the O-Line shaping out?

I love old photos like this especially from classic Ky football teams. Please keep these coming!

Guy was a difference maker. Looking forward to watching him play college ball.

1995 they were really good. They gave a Highlands team with Matthew Mason and Justin Frisk a challenge in the playoffs. I believe that they ran what I would call a triple option (probably a wing T someone can correct me). They had really good QB and RB one two punch.

Not sure I like Lorenzen slimming down. He wasn’t overweight to begin with.
