Kid of strange you guys are the #4 seed and are playing a #1 seed that you beat by 34. I would think you have to like your chances in that game

Claine has had a great year ... he's only a junior and will be back next year. Just saying the backup QB threw a nice ball. If all you are going to do is run then the starting QB is fine. Did you really feel you were in the game in the second half? We were only a TD or two down to Fairdale in the second half but it never felt like we were in the game. Nelson brought a nice little crowd with them. Good to see ... best of luck in the playoffs next year.

Game wasn't that close. BE broke it open in the 3rd Quarter and played the second team most of the 4th Quarter. If I'm Nelson County I start the QB that played the 4th Quarter ... That kid could throw the ball. Good win going into the playoffs ... North Bullitt next week should be a heck of a game!

I'd say Franklin County has the easiest route to the final 4. I think they will play the winner of Lexington Catholic-Bell County. On our side I see the winner of the North Bullitt-Bullitt East game taking on Lone Oak and a bit of an upset special I say Fairdale makes it out of their district to lose to Warren East. So I'll go Bullitt East (or North Bullitt) vs. Warren East and Franklin County vs. Lexington Catholic as a final 4.

It's that way with Bullitt East too ... we almost always out number the home fans. Only exception to that this year I think was the North Bullitt game.

Atherton with 3 wins

Not real sure ... I think that side of the playoff is loaded

I will say right now that the winner of district 4 (whether it be Bullitt East or North Bullitt) will make it to the championship game. Notice I don't think Marion comes out of the district.

Okay this is my last word on this, I asked a friend of mine who coaches one of the top High Schools in Arizona and here was his take on it ... I can live with this.

double post on accident

I was at the game it was a 20-25 yard pass in the air beyond BE's coverage .. You are right on one point it is BE's fault they didn't stop it but obviously they were keying on the run which is the smart move. Manual padding the score wouldn't have been an issue if they had ran out the clock ... it became an issue because Manual decided to run up the score rather than run out the clock. If you were in the press box and didn't see the play then I am sorry but Carter went on a wheel route down the visitors sideline and your starting QB threw the ball to the 25 yard line where Carter caught it and went in untouched. The orginal line of scrimmage was the 47. You act as if they threw a screen and BE didn't tackle ... the play was ran beyond the coverage of BE and Carter went untouched into the end zone .. understandable since BE was keying on the run. I really don't care that Manual tried to run up the score to make it look like they weren't in a game, but don't pretend it was the smart thing to do. The smart thing to do up two scores with 4 minutes left is to take time off the clock. Okay I'm done because I am 100% right so no point in continuing this discussion. Manual played a great game, too bad they tried (and failed) to run up the score at the end instead of taking a 28-19 win.

Fairdale is a strong team .... Fairdale 45-14, I like DeSales but they are no match for Fairdale.

Should be a good one. Nelson has been hot recently and beat BE last year. I hear Nelson has a good freshman RB. I still say BE pulls this out on senior night here in Mt. Washington. We need to not go into the playoffs on a 2 game losing streak also! I'll go 34-28 BE

Not sure what your point is there .... I'm pretty sure we weren't throwing 30 yard fly patterns in the second half ... but once again I don't care that they tried to run up the score but to pretend it was smart strategic play calling is a joke.

You put your starting QB back in and threw a fly route to Carter 30 yards down field .. it wasn't a short pass. It was a play call designed simply to score again. The situation in the game called for running the clock out plain and simple. I don't care that your team tried to run up the score (failed but tried) just don't act like it was smart play calling leave it for what it was. Why would a team that was trailing by two scores try to run the clock out .. your logic is very very faulty. I can understand the other guys point, trying to pad the QB stats .. or trying to showcase Carter (who is excellent) but don't pretend it was because it was the smart play call. 4:20 to go .. you had ran all over us .. you hadn't punted once ... you were up two scores ... the smart play is to run out the clock.

4:20 left in the game BE down two scores Manual has the ball at midfield Manual hasn't had to punt the entire game Manual has 175 on the ground BE has 2 timeouts left The smart thing to do there is to air it out on first down? Wow .... you were running up the score .. nothing wrong with that ... it backfired on you because we scored two more times on you an the margin of victory stayed basically the same... but don't try to justify by saying it was the smart move. The smart move up two scores is to sit on the ball and take time off the clock, not put the ball in the air and risk a turnover. Like I said running up the score isn't the classiest thing to do but hey teams do it all the time ... but don't pee on my shoe and tell me it's raining. Smart thing to do LOL. Took us 44 minutes to score 3 times but Manual was scared we'd score twice in the last 4 minutes..... classic.

BE scored with 4:20 left and then missed a 2 pt conversion to make the score 28-19. Then Manual recovered the onside kick. Then their coach decided not to do the smart thing and run the clock out but threw a 57 yd TD pass. BE scored easily and quickly again. Failed on the onside kick and Manual ran plays designed to score again which they did with 1 minute left, then BE scored with 1.4 seconds left. Good game, talent was pretty much even. Penalties and turnovers killed BE. The Cooper kid on Manual is a heckuva ball player. There was only 1 punt the entire game so neither defense was all that impressive.

0-19 starting to sound like it would be the upset of the week if BE wins!!!!

Thanks for the info ....

Never been to your field how are the visitor's bleachers?

November 9th

BE will have to play near perfect to win this game. Coming off of two emotional district wins, I hope we can get up for it. I think Manual by 14 or so.

Agreed ... Marion just keeps winning, Larue moved the ball at will between the 20's against BE. BE went into North and won. Anything could happen in the playoffs. I'd say 3 teams are even money to come out of it and Larue wouldn't be a shocker.

I agree .. with or without Reynolds it will be a good game.

#4 Larue @ #1 Marion #3 North Bullitt @ #2 Bullitt East I preface this by saying I am a Bullitt East Fan ... It is difficult to beat a team twice in the same year. If Reynolds can play it will difficult for East to win again .. that said I think East and Marion win and East goes into Marion and wins by 2 TD's.
