I heard the QB Transfer from Woodford County quit. Boyle will have no experience at QB next year.  And the two qbs battling it out will not have the same speed as Dawson. Could we see Quisenberry at QB? And the loss of Bodner at RB will be huge also. Boyle will be good but I'm starting to think I don't know if they will be as good as this years team. 

Correct, Nason will be focusing on track.

Makes sense. Looks like there are a couple young QB's that got more playing time than Nason and Woodford's starting QB is a junior. 

I think he left the team when they decided to run a wishbone instead of passing it. That explains why others numbers are higher.

The transfer is already at Boyle and listed on Hudl as BC player.  

BTW,  he is a track star sprinter as well.

Is the Turner kid good enough yet to move into the starting role as QB?  I have been told that there was a QB transferring in.  The person didn’t mention a name or from where, so it could all be a bunch of bologna.

He had zero catches.

That's what I thought until I saw the stats. He had one for 3 yards!  Hopefully, he will have better luck at the college level.

I thought he was much, much better this year than the previous couple. 

To be fair, it really would not have mattered who we had coaching last night. 

He certainly turned up the level in the playoffs.

He’s still in business for a reason. 

Extremely overpriced. Ruth Chris is much better IMHO with better cuts, service and pricing.

I've been watching the hour by hour forecast on the weather channel. I knew there was a high percentage on Friday but didn't realize most of it starts early morning and chances go way down to 24% late afternoon.  That percentage may drop as well before my game, and even with preferred seating, probably packing my golf rain suit.

Great analysis. As far as #73, he is the 5th ranked sophomore lineman in the state (though probably should be higher). His brother, Wilson, was best high school limen

lineman I ever saw and started as a freshman center at MTSU. Only lineman I saw that could single-handedly take over a game.  I'm sure big brother was helpful in his development and will be a handful for CC.

I don't think this game will be as close as some suspect, I look for Boyle to pull away in the second half. To Arns earlier point, Size in high school up front rarely matters much, most high school kids with great size don't move the best quite yet, the ones that do are special. Boyle's line is not big on either side of the ball from watching them a few times including against Corbin. Boyle will run behind the Kelly kid #73, who they move around on both sides of the ball, he looks about 6'1 240 but as a former coach, he is special off the ball and like all their lineman have great technique. Boyle from watching is very well coached on the line, they run a complicated blocking scheme upfront no one talks about or understands, that is difficult to prepare for in High School and hard to execute. They have other lineman upfront also that are solid also, just not much size, but quick. Cov Catholic will have to throw the ball to stay in the game, I just don't see them moving the ball on the ground especially since Douglas couldn't do anything. Boyle 42-21

I'm just comparing numbers. And I want both! 😉

Let's see who makes the big plays come Friday. Pretty sure he will be wearing #5.

You are exactly right. They do not have a better safety and the QB is pretty close.  The issue is that Boyle is 10x more discipline.  There isn't a issue of athletes.  PT is probably the most athletic all around.  Boyle is just discipline, sound, hit you in the mouth and force you to mess up football.

I believe CC will give the Rebs all they want and then some. Their QB is really good and safety is outstanding, but he can't cover everyone as BC has really good multiple deep threats.  And if he gets one on one with Quisenberry, I will take Q all day long.

How big is Boyle on the LOS? Cov Cath is probably bigger than we've been the last few years, but not massive. 3 guys listed at 250 lbs. and then Ben Reeves is a stud high school player and he's probably 6'2, 230. 

Boyle has some size with three players and they are all very good. A couple are smaller but skilled and quick. Seems like Boyle has been outsized every game, especially against FD, Catholic, LCA and Corbin. Regardless of what some say, size doesn't always matter!

Definitely on the same team, I'm not sure if it was the same player but others are saying so. The last one came when Corbin was driving deep into Boyle County territory and could have potentially tied the game. It turned a 3rd and very short into a 3rd and long and pretty much sealed the game up.

Different player on the kickoff return but the last two were same player. My guess is it was never called at Corbin, so kids probably didn't know better, though coaches certainly should. That is the only time I saw anyone hurdle all year.

Why is this a thing? Boyle loses without him. Corbin doesn't go undefeated in the regular season without the twins. The Chicago Bulls don't win all those titles without Michael Jordan. You can say that about almost anything. Fact is, Boyle has better players, better coaching, and knows what it takes better than anyone, how to win the big games. 

Exactly.

Nevermind no he wouldn't have. Avery and Demauriah Brown was in the area. My apologies. 

Agree, Elam would have been lucky not to lose yards as they had that spot covered with two good tacklers. Maybe he was going to throw it back or something but he surely was not going to get it on his own. Questionable call in that situation.

That is crazy when you look at those stats. The rest of Boyle had 22 rushing attempts (unless some were sacks) for 23 yards. That is some tough sledding for the rest of run game. 

Boyle threw 2 interceptions, not 1.

That's a good point, I remember the Kelly Kid starting at center last year, I looked him up and he was a freshman against us and BC running behind him in the championship game. I have heard he starts both ways and has been out, so that could be a factor if he doesn't play or plays only one way. I went down to the FD game, and he was pancaking their dlineman and making numerous plays on Defense... That's the fun part of a game like this, the matchups within the game...of course we all probably remember his brother, not sure where he went but it was a big school if I remember correctly. 

Colt had a strain about a month ago, and sat out a couple of games but has played the last two and I expect him to go both ways tonight. His brother, Wilson, was the best lineman I have ever seen in high school. He dominated John Young (who was #1 recruit at 6'7" 315 lbs and went to UK) and Boyle beat LCA 72-0.  Colt is already ranked as 5th best lineman in the state and only a sophomore.

In order to slow the twins down, you often need to double team one or both of them. That frees up other defenders to rush or drop back in coverage.

I am going to speculate that the two linemen the twins are going against at BC are going to be the best they have faced. Colt Kelly can hold his own with anyone and has the size, speed and technique to do so. Another big factor is BC will not be intimidated by them like many would be, so should be a good matchup.

Going to be some RPI watching tonight.

I would think this win would give Boyle County a good bump. Here is the latest RPI, including adding the appeal win for Corbin, making them 10-0. It does not show Boyle's win tonight yet.

Looking through my Gold glasses of course I'm going to pick my Rebels.  I wonder just how much that has affected my decision on this game.  I know Boyle is good but are they that good to knock off a team that won at Trinity on the road?  Last years Frederick Douglas team was the best high school football team I have ever seen in person. Defense, Offense, special teams they had it all and have players playing this Friday night from last year.  

Boyle manhandled Scott County but just how good is Scott County who's only loss was to Boyle?    Are they really a 5A title threat?  How good is LCA?  I know they're 2A but they have played a gauntlet of a schedule with all classes and their only loss was to Boyle.  How good is this Boyle team?

I'm bias as I bleed Black and Gold and will be a #Rebel4Life but I am really shocked to see the pole at 75.82% to 24.18% in favor of Boyle.   First and foremost we need to get through this game injury free.  A win would be better and would give Boyle a 3rd. round home game and even possible a 4th. round home game with Tilghman taking a RPI hit with playing a bottom 1A team.  Franklin County has really tighten up lately on RPI and GRC is a lot lower in RPI points than FD.   All 3 are pretty close now. 

Is it Friday yet?   

I agree, I really thought this was more of a toss-up. I do think BC is better this year than last and FD is not as good, so that may be all the difference there. I had read that 18 players from last years FD team are playing at the next level, but I am sure they reload every year just like Boyle. Should be a good one. 

Wasik runs around like Fran Tarkenton used to and usually finds his guy as he is accurate. Rebs secondary will be tested once again and Catholic will likely throw away from Quisenberry and Brown as they are really good covering guys and look for interceptions. I believe he has to be turnover-free to have a chance and be able to get away from Driver and Feltner chasing him.
