No team in Eastern KY can beat Highlands/Covington Cath. winner. For starters the field position game will definatley be in favor of the Northern teams since their punting and field goal kicking is light years ahead of anything Eastern KY has. Seciondly at Highlands not many kids play both ways, so they will be more fresh and will not tire as much as teams that have several kids that play both ways. Finally, SPEED. There is a MAJOR diffrence in East KY fast and North KY fast. The overall team speed is remarkable in Highlands & Cov. Cath. and no East KY team will be able to keep up. With a little luck (and a muddy field) an Eastern KY team could be in the game and have a shot, but don't expect them to be representing the East any time soon.

We'll just respectfully disagree and leave it at that. Fair enough?
