[quote=MonsterMan]It is that time of year when our old friends from up north come on here and say we have no chance, the teams and players from NKY are just better. We cannot play pass defense and the passing game will kill us. Hey we respect NKY teams and the tradition of Cov Cath. We know it will be a battle. But we know we can line up and play with you.

This game will be won on the line. If JC can get their run game going and keep the CC QB in check, I really like our chances. If CC can stop the run and their QB has all day to throw the ball, it will be a long night for JC. The Nest is one of the hardest places to play in KY so that helps JC. The Wild Card here is JC passing game. Although not totally refined, it has been much better this year than in previous years. We beat Ashland with it. It is a more surpise, home run type play with the running game.

Bir does not need all day to throw, he likes to get rid of it quickly. They use the short 3-6 yard passing game and do not throw throw the long pass much at all.
