[BEChargers]

Henderson returns several starters from last season and should be a solid 6A team. They'll battle Daviess Co for top spot in 6A D1 (they get my vote as slight favorite). Their first 2 games can be tossed out when considering this matchup. Calloway Co is awful (just lost to Fulton Co) and Christian Co is way down again this year too. Rest and health are the primary advantages they got from those games in preparation for Boyle Co.

Last year the Colonels looked like they might be able to hang around for awhile. It was a decent first half, then Boyle made some defensive adjustments and took complete control of the game including a scoop and score.

Henderson Co has the potential to make a good showing here. They have two nice RBs and usually have some beef on the lines with a solid run defense. So, I don't expect the Rebels to push them around like they did their first three opponents. That doesn't mean Boyle can't win by a large margin again this year. Bodner and Boyle's new toy from Garrard will be a handful for the Colonels, and they should have success in the passing game too. Henderson will need to control the ball with long drives, play near mistake-free, and get a couple of turnovers to have any legitimate shot at an upset on the road.

It's an intriguing matchup, and should tell us more about Henderson than Boyle at this point in the season. (especially if the Rebels aren't yet to full health as some have stated)

"Boyle's new toy" is a phrase that some may not care for.  I understand how many don't care for Boyle and they have had a handful of players move into the community to play for them.  I know a guy that calls them the Central Ky Rebels.  I just think you could have used a better phrase.
