True, with there QB and Reciever out that I know of,then I heard Vicars might not play.

It will be a low scoreing game. I think NCC wins a tough defencive battle.NCC,s balance between running and passing is getting better every week.

After NCC beat SK and Dixie both.You could make the arguement for Campbell or Boone,But NCC should be above the rest.4 thru 8 that is,if you think Beechwood is a clearly better than those teams.

Once again you have no clue what you are talking about.Your name should be (talks aimlessly) instead of free thinker. 3 out of the last 6 years the breds were in the state final.

1 HHS 2 CCH 3 NCC 4 Beechwood 5 Campbell County 6 Simon Kenton 7 Dixie 8 Ryle 9 Boone 10 HC

Well I think stupid penalties is what is killing the Breds offence.They turned 2nd and 2 or 3 to 1 and 20 at least 4 times.They would drive all the way down the field to about the 20 or 30 of Newport and then go backwards.

No offence taken but the first run of the second half was 6 yards and the 2nd one was seven the third one was 27 before the fumble then they held him to one yard on the 4th one.all pretty effective to me.they passed on every down the rest of the third and half of the 4th after that.

He definitly throws a nice pass,there is no question. But there is more to it than that.Timing is not there right now.They really need to stick to short passes early to establish that.They threw way to many long passes in the belfry game or (IMHO) there would have been a different outcome.They will get all this cleared up and they will be very tough down the stretch.They were able to move the ball with the short pass and the run against Belfry but got away from that in the 2nd quarter.Then in the third quarter done the exact same thing.In the 4th late went back to it and scored.

LoL, It is not not like you to want NCC to lose.

I was at both games and the passing game needs some work,But I will say they did real good with the short passing game.The problem I seen was all the 30 and 40 yard passing attempts and I think the coaches will take care of this problem quickly.

NCC wins big, 4 td's sounds about right.

Dominated? What game did you watch. It was a great game and they were pretty even.

I doubt Ludlow will, but one thing i do know ludlow did not stop NCC in 03.As a matter of fact NCC beat Lloyd by more tham 40 points and did it by running with Kevin Smith.

Most people did not think they could stop Mayfield's running game either.Most people did not think they could stop Bellevue's running game,But they did and they made both of them Start trying to pass because they could not run.

Do you think there is a big drop-off after Vicars or are they pretty close.

I think NCC wins this game.They will stack the box to stuff the run and get burnt several times through the air.I have been saying that the new QB this year is just as good as Deihl was last year and this game will show that to be true.

I was at both scrimmages and NCC's varsity beat both Dixie's and Simon's varsity.With that being said, Dixie and Simon will both be very good this year.I have no clue why people are being so crazy about this.Last year NCC beat Ryle in the regular season,They can play with any 4A team in NKY. in my opinion.Why does it have to be a disgrace to lose to a good program like NCC or Beechwood.It makes no sense to me at all.

Hopefully you are being sarcastic,otherwise I would be embarrassed.:laugh: :laugh:

I believe it was a combination of things.That could be one of them I don't know.I believe the biggest reason was the All senior line in the third. That is just my opinion though.

Agreed, NCC was very sloppy in the first half on OFF. and Def. second half was the exact opposite.

actually NCC did not do bad moving the ball in the first half.They just were not finishing.3 times inside the 25 yard line then penalties, sacks or just dropped passes. Regardless it doesn't matter if you just move the ball you have to score also.The passing game will be there,you wont just have to stop Vicars,your going tohalf to stop the pass also.

You are correct.Late in the the game Dixie's JV. scored twice on ours but the varsity was 14 to 13.

After the half NCC had the starting line in with no subbing and was able to move the ball nicely. They were trying different combinations the whole first half. The senior line opened alot of nice holes for Vicars in the third quarter.

I am pretty sure you missed this one.I am 99% sure he was being sarcastic. You probably never been to a Beechwood/NCC game.

I beleive NCC is as good as the 03 team,and I beleive Beechwood is not as good as the 03 team.I also would like to HC give them both good games.
