I obviously disagree. There's a mountain of "stuff" riding on this game between the Birds and CCH. A win by CCH would put this rivalry into the stratosphere and would hands down become the most talked about game in the history of the series, possibly even eclipsing the infamous mudbowl, IMO. Bell/Central? Come on.

1. Bell County is in the mountains, most of the members on this site are in the mountains, and Central has to travel down there.

2. the CovCath/ Highlands rivalry is very emotional, but definitely one sided, especially lately

3. whoever wins the game will go on to win state, but this isn't anywhere near the 97 mudbowl.
