Well here we go a game between to of the top teams in Kentucky in any class the past 5+ years. This is also only the 2nd time these two teams have played the last being in the 2019 5A State Championship game won by the Colonels 14-7. With the change this year of having the first two rounds played between sister districts these two are meeting up in round 2 of the playoffs.
The Colonels are 9-2 and ranked #4 in the 5A RPI. There only two losses were a 21 point loss in the first game of the season to Ohio power Cincinnati Elder and a loss to district rival Highlands in week 8 by a score of 32-21. It was Highlands first win over Cov. Cath. in 7 years and 9 straight losses. The Broncos come into the game 11-0 and ranked #1 in the 5A RPI. While the Colonels have played a tougher schedule than the Broncos they do have one common opponent in Great Crossing who the Colonels defeated Friday night at home in the first round of the playoffs 21-0. The Broncos defeated the Warhawks 54-0 at Great Crossing on Oct. 14. The Broncos are 31-4 since these two last played in December of 2019.
Covington Catholic comes into this game avenging just over 29 points a game while only allowing just over 14 points per game. The Broncos are avenging just under 47 points a game (that is including a 1-0 forfeit score) they are allowing just over 4 points a game including 5 shutouts and 9 running clocks. This is one of four or five potential really good games in round two of the 5A playoffs. I for one am looking forward to this one Friday night kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 and can be seen on NFHS Network (with membership). Best of luck two very good programs!

FCPS intended to have a school that could compete in football and stand alongside LexCath and LCA. AND- they have done everything they could to make it work. Maybe the dream is fulfilled this year.

Frederick Douglass should win by 40 but with their head coach, it could be closer than expected.
