I’m not a cov cath fan per say, but I do follow them because I find what they are currently doing very interesting. Lex cath is a solid team no doubt. They also have the best quarterback in the state. I know bias can cloud judgment...but that’s just a fact of life. He’s really good. To understand why the Covington Catholic game was so close, you really have to understand X’s and O’s. Both offensively and defensively, for both teams. Obviously every team cov cath has faced after lex cath, the opposing game plan was to “lex cath” the cch defense. Every game. Not one has been remotely successful. I find that intriguing don’t you? I wonder why it hasn’t worked?

I always value your insight on things. Especially northern ky teams because of my lack of knowledge of them. But could you elaborate more on the “X’s and O’s” part of your reply? Because to me after watching that game, and several more of them both. In my opinion it just looks like Cov cath just came out flat and didn’t play well, on the other hand Lex cath came out and went for the throat. I’m not saying it wasn’t game plans, etc. It’s just what it looked like to me. Almost like they I won’t say “didn’t care” or were “toying” around. But it didn’t look like they were giving it their all. Definitely wasn’t the same team I watched a couple weeks later. Because right after the lex game I thought Cov was significantly overrated. I don’t as much anymore.
