Male vs. Trinity Predictions/Updates
Male is the best team in the state and has been all season. By all accounts, they are healthy now. The Shamrocks have improved but I just think this one is too much for the youngsters to handle right now. I'll take Male 35-21 in a battle of the "Big Two." I say Big Two kidding my X friends a bit. But seriously these two teams have won 10 of the past 11 6-A state titles (T 8, Male 2) and the other one wasn't even St. X. These are the two heavyweights of Kentucky football.

Trinity 38 Ryle 18
Oh, and will be a fun Turkey Day - again!

Trinity 38 Ryle 18
Glad to get the win! Ryle played hard and the LB was all over the field. Disappointed a little with the Rocks. Too many mistakes, too many mental errors. Yes, I know an easy 20-point win but the standard is high. Let's correct the mistakes and keep moving on.

Mike Jackson is the new head football coach at DeSales
Congrats to coach Jackson! A good spot for him. He should be able to hire a really good staff.

Trinity 40 Ballard 0
Here's another Ouch! @theguru In the last three playoff meetings, Trinity has outscored Ballard 132-12
-
Trinity 40 Ballard 0
I knew it wasn't much offense for Ballard but had no idea it was minus-3 yards of total offense. At least, that's what was just reported in the TV news. Ballard had 305 yards in the first meeting.

St. Xavier 18 Manual 16
Tough loss for Manual. Props to coach Carmony and staff. I expected a blowout. X has a lot of good d-linemen and that helps in close, hard-fought games.

Atherton 21 North Bullitt 7
Three straight wins for the Ravens (still sounds weird). Congrats and nice job by coach White!

Trinity 76 Marshall County 0
Will be an interesting few weeks. I like Trinity's chances to be competitive, especially with Armon Tucker back (finally). Had been out basically since Cincy St. X game - he had a few snaps against Ballard but not many. He looked fast tonight, had a couple of TDs for the Shamrocks.

Trinity 76 Marshall County 0
I think they missed an extra point. I seem to remember the third kicker of the night missed.

Male 43 Fern Creek 0
Easy first game for the Bulldogs. Saw it was 11-0 early in the first quarter and Male rolls Will host Bullitt East next week.

Trinity 76 Marshall County 0
Was afraid it would be like this when I saw the Marshall County team. Guess they only had 30 kids. Was ugly. Not sure why I went, but then when I was watching and I thought I might go down and ask if I could go in. I think I could have scored a TD. Yes, @theguruis was THAT bad. One of the five worst teams I have seen at Marshall Stadium. On a bright note, Trinity played a lot of freshmen for the first time and they looked good.

St. Xavier vs. Butler Predictions/Updates
If you are running late, better hurry this one will be over in a hurry. X 54, Butler 0

Selah Brown (Male '22) Recruiting
He won't leave the city. Selah is a really good player; interested to see exactly where he plays in college (not big enough for middle of DL, is he fast enough for DE), but he'll be just find. He's a football player.

Male 23 Manual 0
Manual never had a shot. IMO Very disappointing if you are a Manual supporter. Should have been the year with all the guys they have with experience. I didn't see the very end but doubt they had 50 yards of offense.

Playoff games moved to Thursday
Yes, KHSAA sent out an email last week saying they were short of refs and needed some schools to change.

Central 26 St. Xavier 16 (JV)
I believe they have about 35 freshmen and sophomores on the entire roster, which is a really good number. The Central junior class is not very big. Super win for the Yellowjackets!
-
Oldham County 45 George Rogers Clark 22
This is a perfect example of why comparing scores in high school football can make you go crazy GRC loses 9-7 to Bryan Station Oldham County loses 42-21 to Bryan Station And Oldham County whips GRC 45-22.

Welcome to Idaho HS football in October!
Um, the mud game looked like fun. This looks dreadful. Ugh

Welcome to Indiana HS Football in October!
That looks like so much fun!!!

Trinity 41 Eastern 22 (JV)
Props to Eastern for playing the Shamrocks. As I understand it from some friends, Trinity played a bunch of sophomores and a handful of freshmen. Eastern played a whole lot of juniors. But again props to the Eagles.

St. Xavier at Pleasure Ridge Park Predictions/Updates
This one will be ugly! X 49, PRP 7
-
Manual 42 Pleasure Ridge Park 0
As I expected, PRP just not ready for any team close to an elite level.

St. Mary's (MO) 22 Trinity 19
Very disappointing loss. St. Mary's is a really nice high school football team but the Rocks should have won. Young kids have grown up - maybe not enough just yet.
-
St. Mary's (MO) 22 Trinity 19
Trinity will play Eastern next week Open week and then Marshall County in the playoffs. Eastern and Ballard play unless Eastern beats Trinity
