Does putting an open umbrella over your head when it's not rain = to 7 years bad luck? Something like that, right?

The best picture from the game...

It is nearly halloween right? :lol:

I would switch Coaches Lampley and Glaser.

Correct! The center usually gets down field very quickly on punts any way. Put DJ in the role, and the opponent should have 0 punt return yards.

Does anyone know if the alumni golf event was held this year?

Sorry, I started at the top and worked down. :thumb:

I agree with you. I had no idea the broom was special to the Saint Xavier high school. Just a point of clarification...All the Trinity players, coaches and most of the fans that stuck around to witness the drubbing saw the players sweeping the turf in a taunting fashion at the Trinity players. Actually, if the players did not taunt the Trinity players with the broom after the game, we would not be discussing it. I strongly disagree, and that's OK. Trinity and Saint Xavier do not play for a broom to use in a taunting fashion after the game. IMO, the memories and camaraderie building should not be created by taunting the opposing team. Have fun tonight. Good luck to both teams! :thumb:

I would hope that if any coach sees this happening, they would take immediate actions to stop the taunting.

My goodness, I anticipated Saint Xavier fans agreeing with me that allowing a broom to be used as a vehicle for taunting would be wrong and below the level Coach Glaser and his staff aim to achieve. So you really think allowing Saint Xavier players to taunt Trinity players on the field is acceptable? OK, I guess I have a different point of view. Have a great time at the game.

I hope the Saint Xavier coaches have more control over their players should the varsity Tigers win tonight. The last time Saint Xavier pulled the regular season sweep, I thought allowing the players to run around the field with brooms was done in very bad taste. This rivalry should be above those types of childish antics. They should celebrate, but do it with class. Hopefully this will not be an issue tonight.

That's as good a reason as any in this game. :thumb:

It wasn't Jody.

Thanks for the heads up! This is usually a fun listening experience.

Last night on Fox 9 I noticed many of the Saint Xavier players mentioned last year's rain shortened game as a major motivational factor (retribution, closure, etc.). This will be two "revenge" Trinity games in a row for them. Could a Tiger fan tell us how many starters from this year's team played in last year's game? Will Saint Xavier’s feeling that they need to prove something have any effect in this game?

History tells us that (no more than about 28 points from Trinity in the game lately). Plus this may be Saint Xavier's best defense in several years, and they are ranked #1 in the state in multiple polls (both in state and national). They give up an averaging of 9 points per game and 66 yards rushing. Trinity has problems when they cannot run the ball, and this Saint Xavier team seems to have a run stuffing defense this year. Timmy and the O-line will need to pull out all the stops to have yardage Friday night. :sssh:

Not really. Saint Xavier has won several the past few years.

4 and 8 sounds about right. :lol:

Is it possible to have more than one knockout blow? And BTW - MTSU get's credit for that any way.

Excuses?

Awww... It was very good, thanks for asking. You are really caring.

Wes is a beast. I seriously hope his is getting some attention from top college programs. The kid can do it all. Stein had a nice night. Beat St. X.

East of the field is usually wide open until 7:15...

I think it is different, and I now understand why. There is no love between Manual and Saint Xavier/Trinity for many reasons. And while Saint Xavier and Trinity are tremendous rivals, hatred is a little extreme for most (but not all) fans from both sides. Saint Xavier - 41 Manual - 13
