I would agree that prob 8 out of ten times cov cath would be superior. However this is a pretty special Ashland Team. The way I see it is that each team has one significant advantage over the other. For cov cath they go as the qb does and he's very good for Ashland I feel our d-line can get pressure and play in catholic's backfield. So if cov cath givesthe qb time to throw or run they prob win. If Ashland D can get pressure and force turnovers the tomcats are going to the regional final.

And you don't think that this year is special for Cov Cath? This is the BEST RECORD in 18 years that they have had. You honestly think that Ashland's D-line will put THAT much pressure on Bir? You're talking about quite possibly the second best O-line in the state of Kentucky (Trinity's being the first). I believe that Ashland may key Gray and shut him out but if that happens, Bir spreads ball around to his receivers who are all 3 year lettermen and have all started for at least 2 years. Ashland's D won't stop Cov Cath from scoring 28 or less. No one in Kentucky has besides Boone Co. on a horrible field that didn't allow the passing game for either team.
