The football gods were angered by that infamous last play. They are doing their part to create a tough environment to pass the ball. Might throw in some swirling winds just because. Birds 27 - 20. That kicker will probably pop a couple. Dale, let Drew kick!

Great post. I have an old frat brother that came from Columbus to see the game. He went to the DeSales game too. He has seen two awesome rain games this year. You might want to keep your Vandy tickets, since the cats only win once a month. You can catch the birds at Lex. Cath. in 3 weeks. That's right Colonel fans, the Birds haven't lost their mojo. :fight:

I think it makes your team stronger when you play strong competition. Helps you in the playoffs. Since we don't have computer rankings in KY (although the KHSAA might pick up on that bad idea) what possible reason is there to not scheduling teams that annually go deep into the playoffs?

Your higher elevation must have rendered you a bit light headed. Hope springs eternal. With the new districts set for 07. You have a great opportunity to schedule teams from NKY.

Great game by the Colonels. Boy, was that tough to type. CCH coaches did a great job of prep, and the boys executed the plan to perfection. Great win for the Colonels. I heard at the game and on this thread, some second guessing of HHS coaches. I think it will be important for the coaches, as well as the players, to step up for the rematch. No doubt they will. I was surprised by our lack of pressure on the QB. I thought Drew may have had a minor leg injury early in the game. Felt that accounted for the missed chip shot in the 1st qtr. I thought, no way would we intentionally short kick, over and over. I was wrong again. Might want to re-visit that strategy. Since CCH's best wins seem to be in Ft. Thomas, traveling to the team from Park Hill's field might be a blessing.

Yes, we have been watching the same team. The defensive schemes are solid and the players are executing as they have been coached. With a less mobile QB playing this week, I don't see the same big play outcome.

Seeing is believing. SO's QB did a good job of keeping the play alive with his scrambling. I don't see that playmaking ability from Cov Cath's QB.

I think the X factor will be the Birds defensive secondary. Head, Bethiany and the latest addition Daley are all ball hawks defending the pass. Shutting down the Colonel's short passing game will be the key. I don't think the Colonel's can match the Bird's ability to score with a quick strike. Kramer is so elusive in the open field. HHS 28 CCH 17.

Is JJ still playing QB?

Way to come out of the closet JB. Nice website. :ylsuper:

I don't know about a dynasty, but your point is well made.:argue: :argue:

You know that is really funny, problem is I don't think you are kidding. It's football, not soccer.

Hoping the weather is better than last year's game. Bird's win big.

JB, DeSales has been a scoring machine this year. 30 pts is, if not their lowest close to it, output for the year. Pretty unrealistic to expect to shut them out. HHS has had several personnel changes over the past few weeks, some planned, some due to injuries. The team is improving. But that improvement has come from the games played against tough competition. I know the boys were excited to play at PBS. This argument is a mute point. Based on subjective polls (AP, Litkenhaus, etc)the Birds will be the favored team each week, the rest of the season. Next year St. X, Elder and DeSales will be missing from the schedule. So HHS can pound a few teams, possibly have a better win-loss record; and you can pound your chest about all-time wins.

I agree with your Crunch. How would the team improve by pounding another SW Pulaski? The "L" potentially had much more meaning for DeSales than it did to HHS.
