Huh? You working nights... :laugh:

Couldn't agree with you more... IMO, this is all about individual recognition in a team oriented sport. If we were talikng about bowling or tennis, then have at it. To be considered Mr Football should be enough recognition to these fine student athletes. At the end of the day, we will have a winner and we will have many more disappointed fans!

The X faithfull are claiming the Bombers' were looking ahead to their next game against big Mo! :clap::

If the Birds' D play like they did against X, another unblemished regular season! The D has come a long way since Week #1 and I just do not see anyone racking up the points to pull out a victory against HHS. The interesting match-up will be the Birds' O against Ryle's D. Should be a good one... Birds' by 21!:thumb:

Don't follow... isn't the defensive unit playing on the same surface as the offense? Besides, nowadays, playing on turf is the norm - high school, college and the NFL. I think we had one game on grass and it looks like it will remain that way through the playoffs... I had a chance to see Miles play in the championship game last year in the Pizza Box. He is a stud. He is the real deal!

Hmmmmmm! What does this do to the playoff picture in the western part of the state in 5A?

Slot back... Kick-off return etc. etc. Nice to see William back in the game... speed kills and that is what he delivered this evening. Ryle will have their hands full trying to figure this backfield out... Hats off to the Eagle's coach and assistant coach. Both made a point of contacting Bardo after the game to congratulate him on his return to the football field. That's nothing but class in my book! :thumb:

Highlands: The Burt brothers. Jim and John Burt played and starred for WKU. Jim Burt is on the WKU Hall of Fame. Also, Clay Cecil from the '07 is on the Kentucky Team. (Redshirt Frosh.)

I will go out on a limb and predict that, 88-12 or 81-0, will not happen. The advent of the running clock makes it difficult to break the 60 point mark and I have not seen Dale run a score in a very long time... I agree with many that the Scott players deserve a ton of credit for sticking with the program. That takes a lot of courage and love of the sport. There is nothing wrong with either... Dale will not exploit nor embarrass.

Noticed the same thing... great play by Garnick. His dad Mike was one heck of an athlete! I am fortunate to work with Mike and I am sure the apple does not fall far from the tree. :thumb:

The music gots to go... I was enjoying the contest prior to the announcer stepping up to the mike. And how in the world does J-- find his way into the press box to operate the clock? He does this everytime. Good game last evening by two evenly matched teams... should be fun next year!

You will get your chance on the highlight tape... each senior gets interviewed after each game. Very in depth... kind of up close and personal!

Today wouldn't be soon enough! :thumb:

Very classy post!:thumb:

I think that is why HHS plays up... Dale wants to be compared to the top teams in the nation. Not viewed as one of the small schools wtih a decent program playing football. Hopefully, there will be some bounce off of these ranknings and some 'birds will get the opportunity of a life time to play at the next level. Couldn't think of a better compliment to Dale and his staff...

That's OK, we have about 1,000 apartments in the process on Memorial Parkway. That should do it!

Sorry , don't have an answer for you... but for what its worth, a GCL dad told me this morning that only Sophomores play JV in the GCL.

I would rather see Highlands become a private educational institution, thanks to KERA! That way they could play anyone they like, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana. Unfortunately, that would prevent HHS the opportunity to play in the Kentucky State Championships.... Moving up to 6 A would be fine in my books, but that will not be allowed per KHSAA rules / regulations. So I guess its on to more state championships in 5A... that's not all bad!

From a respective point of view... for a head coach, Specht, to say St X may have been looking ahead towards the Elder game is nothing but baloney. Highlands last loss in the past three years was the loss to Colerain last year. I did not hear any comments from Dale that the 'birds were looking ahead to the next game. Dale would most likely admit that the 'birds got beat by a better team and that they will learn from the shortfalls on the field, make adjustments and move on. (I think...) At which point in the game did they (St X) realize they were in a battle? The on-side kick with seconds remaining on the clock? If I was Specht and I saw goose eggs on the board at half, I am thinking they would no longer be looking at the pending Eldger match-up but working on a way to pull out a win against HHS. I will never fall for the excuse. "We got caught looking ahead to the next game." We came out flat... yes, but not looking ahead. That is just a cheap shot to the winning team who outplayed the opponent.

Now that's a deal! LN, my source, left us in the endzone in lieu of the stands...

http://www.prepsportsradio.com/ audio broadcast http://www.ehsports.com/ broadcasted video feed BF: If you do not mind, could you post the scores for the Elder / St X game this evening? I will be at the HHS and Dixie contest...

The turf @ HHS is mixed with sand and rubber... it is completely different from the many other variations in northern Kentucky that only have a rubber base that becomes a skating rink when wet. Basically, AC will have his day by land, sea or air. I was very impressed with our secondary against the X men from Ohio. It will be interesting to see how Spritsky plans to move the ball this evening... Will the flag be waving this evening? :isurrender:

Really? :sssh:

Congratulations Highlands! Don't be satisfied with 23, 22 or 20, there is plenty of room at the top!

Where is this game being played? Newport or NCC? I think that,home field advantage, will have some bearing on who wins...
