I've never seen an offense quite like JC. They seemed unstoppable in the 1st half. They have alot of heart. They also have some bad apples. There were a couple nasty personal fouls that weren't called. Anyway, hats off to Brian Weinrich and the Highlands D. They are amazing. The 1st half should have ended with only 7 pts on the board apart from a legit pass interference on a 4th and 13 which gave JC the ball 1st and goal. Stupid mistake. It gave JC confidence, but as soon as Highlands got the ball they scored again. After that it was just a matter of time before the JC squad gassed out and Highlands got rollin'. JC did nothing in the 2nd half. Their only score was a late pass on Highlands 2nd team defense. Highlands just let JC continue to run the ball and chew up the clock. It seemed as if JC had already conceded defeat down 42-14 with a whole quarter to go they continue to run it up the gut and chew up the clock. What's up with that? Why even play the 4th quarter if you're not even going to try to get back in it. They didn't try a pass until 3minutes were left on the clock. I'm sorry but that's ridiculous. Highlands just let them continue to chew up the clock and shoot themselves in the foot. Overall, JC had no answer for the Bluebird offense. They were worn out from playing both sides of the ball the entire night and Highlands just kept pounding them. Highlands definitely wouldn't have won without AC tonight. He took over the game offensively. Drennan is a stud and Towles is absolutely amazing. He has such poise. Like he's been there before. Absolutely incredible. Johnson Central has one of the most unstoppable offenses in the state. Unfortunately, they have no pass and no depth. That won't win state. simple as that. They gave Highlands their toughest test of the year and have nothing to hang their heads about. Nothing but respect from this Bluebird fan. I'm actually concerned about facing this team again next year. They're pretty amazing. Even in the stands you couldn't follow the ball carrier. I can't imagine how the Bluebird D felt. Roller put his signature on a couple peeps tonight. Hard fought, hard hitting game. Wish some of the JC players would have played clean and not punched one of our players. Oh well, it was an emotional game. Birds 42 and the win.
