I picked LCA to win but I don't think it will be an easy one for them.  OC is a good football team.  Their offense & Brady Atwell get a lot of the attention, but they are sound on the defensive side of the ball too.  They appear to be a well coached & disciplined defense.  Their LBs are very good & have a nose for the football. 

However, I think that Catholic's DBs may be a little out-matched.  Their defense's strong points matches up well with the more run-heavy offenses of their district opponents but I'm not sure they are suited to stop a sound passing attack.  I haven't seen LCA play in person but looking at schedules and statistics it appears that they can throw the ball around pretty efficiently. 

They have one common opponent - CAL - who beat LCA 49 to 14 & Owensboro Catholic 52 to 15 - so pretty similar scores.

I think it will be a good game - I might make the drive to Owensboro to watch it - although if I do I'll be sitting on Lexington's side! I'm still a little sour at the way OC did my Cougars at the end of the game this past Friday...

Not that it would have changed the outcome of the game because the LCA defense still gave up 50 points, but LCA did play the second half of this game without starting QB. Once again, this might not have changed the final result but I would imagine that LCA's offense would have scored at least a few more points had Boley been able to play.
