Highlands Wins Class 5A State Final http://wlwt.highschoolplaybook.com/media/ShowMedia.do?mid=65020a99d5ccdb828f7bc9b0d389543f

Pure speculation on your part.

and also yours

I didn't think so either... I also thought the ball was dropped.

I paused super slow motioned it forward and backwards...I am POSITIVE that I couldn't tell catch/no catch...in the endzone or out.

Fugate will run all over Central on that big field, see you on Friday as you nervously await the announcement of all the TD. that Fugate will put on the board.:thumb: See you Friday.

CHANNING FUGATE 18 133 1

Not too tough to count to 1

2 carries for 94, 16 carries for 39

Congratulations to HHS on #18! This was a fun game to watch!

 

Question for anyone who kept stats...

 

How many 4th down conversions did Christian Co. complete? I have never personally seen a team attempt so many, let alone convert so many.

 

Christian Co gave the Birds a GAME and again, this was a really fun game to watch!

4th-Down Conversions 5-7

I'd assume quite a few Highlands folks made the trip down 71.

I am still at home in a ghost town!:scared:

Any word on how he's doing?

His son was just interviewed from Louisville on channel 19. He said his dad lost most of his hand. They asked if he had talked to his dad and he said that his mom had and dad told her to call him and tell him he is ok and to win state.

An article from the KY New Era about the game.

Apparently, the writer is under the inpression that Christian is the ONLY county--other than Jefferson--sending two teams to the finals. The ironic part of that being, that the county they forgot is the very one that both of their teams will be playing! :lol:

Not anymore:sssh:

Fugate is the team.:thumb:

Deuce Finch is Mr. Football

HHS!

 

 

Birds, don't get caught up in the "all-star named me not you" garbage. FOCUS ON THE TASK AT HAND!! It don't mean a thing, if you ain't got that RING! do-wop, do-wop, do wop! :banana: Besides, no one guy does it alone it takes ALL pulling TOGETHER to be STATE CHAMPS! 18 is on the horizon....GO AND GET IT!!

:thumb:18:thumb:

Bluebirds too much

Nice to see the sign back up! Go Birds!

I do like driving up the hill and having that thing hit me in the face...LN, Henry knows it is all in fun!

Figured it was time to hang the banner

Looks great...really dresses up the old double-wide!:thumb:

2008 attendance for five Indiana state high school final games = 56,050 (11,210/game)

 

2007 attendance for six Kentucky state high school final games = 46,620 (7,770/game)

 

Apparently many Kentucky fans do just stay home. Eliminating the open week, and playing the finals a a week or two earlier could not hurt attendance.

Playing in the dome helps

RADCLIFFE, Ky. — After 17 years of frustration, the Christian County Colonels are returning to the state football championship.
