Mayfield hammers the Beechnut kittens on the road after traveling three days to get there. I should have known not to listen to the predictions of the Buckeye wannabe's.

I just wish Mayfield was standing in the way of Newcath. Then I'd know for sure Newcath wasn't winning anything.

Not a good 5A school. I saw a 5A school put up 30 in the 1st qtr against Beechwood and 43 in a half this year while playing nice in the 2nd quarter.

Believe me, their are no Buckeye wannabe's in NKY! And I know many, including myself who picked Mayfield to win.

I think the thing that made Beechwood say uncle was when Mayfield abandon the pass and just starting running right at them. It was the nand there that they knew they were done.

id say it was when mayfield kick returner muffed the kickoff, ran back to pick it up, then outran beechwood 90+ yards for a TD. i think that put mayfield up 28-14

Football is often a game of inches, tiny increments that can determine victory and defeat. But sometimes it’s instead the enormous swings that define a game - seismic shifts in momentum that tilt a contest one way or the other.

On Friday, it was those enormous swings that doomed Beechwood as it fell at home in the Class A state semifinals, 38-14, to unbeaten Mayfield for the second consecutive year.

http://news.cincinnati.com/apps/pbcs.dll...311260074/

The Tigers (10-4) have advanced to the semifinal round seven of the last nine years, including state championship runs in 2004, 2007 and 2008. Those achievements did little to lessen the sting of Beechwood’s playoff exit for coach Noel Rash.

“Our expectations are state titles. That’s exactly what this senior class expected,” Rash said. “We just came up short. We’ve got to get back to the drawing board and find a way to beat (Mayfield) and that’s not going to be an easy task.”

The first of the game’s enormous swings came on the opening possession when Beechwood running back Cameron Vocke fumbled after the Tigers had driven all the way down to Mayfield’s 28-yard line. The Cardinals took full advantage, marching 78 yards in the opposite direction capped by a 57-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Luke Guhy to Javarius Richardson.

The next swing came late in the second quarter after a 28-yard Tiger touchdown pass from Michael Colosimo to Corey Cruse cut Beechwood’s deficit to14-7 with two minutes left to play in the half. That was more than enough for the Cardinals, who needed only 80 seconds to advance down the field and score to take a 21-7 halftime lead.

“(That touchdown) gave us some breathing room and got our guys pumped up in the locker room,” Mayfield coach Joe Morris said.

The Cardinals’ touchdown before the break forced the run-first Tigers to take to the air. Colosimo, who averages 14 pass attempts per game, threw 30 times on Friday. Mayfield’s lead also effectively took Vocke out of the game. The junior halfback entered the contest with 1,841 yards and 32 touchdowns. He managed only 47 yards on 10 carries versus the Cardinals - all of them in the first half.

The final swing in momentum arrived late in the third quarter. A 9-yard touchdown pass from Colosimo to Cruz pulled the Tigers to within 24-14. On the ensuing kickoff Mayfield senior Devin Jones muffed the return, but managed to scoop up his fumble at his own 1-yard line and bolt 99 yards for a touchdown.

“That kickoff return was the dagger. We got a little momentum swing and then they just stuck it too us,” Rash said. “It was a few things here and there, but that’s what (games) always come (down) to You’ve got to make breaks for yourselves and we didn’t.”

It was a compliment - too hard to take?:popcorn:

5A School. ....ha this game was typical game by the means of how are coach coaches. For coach morris its not how much you can win by, when playing a team that can score its get up by a 2 possessions and then run the clock out. This started as soon as they came out of the locker room for the third qt. The score could had easily been by another 4 to 5 tds. we almost completly stopped our passing game for the last 2 qts. and in the 4th only throwing one ball. mayfield drove the ball all the way down to the 2 yard line with 2 min left in the game and then choose to down the ball out instead of tackin to the already 38-14 lead. this Game could had very easly been a blow out. but the beechies did a very impressive job of shuting down the running game of mayfield but the passing was just enough to keep it out of their hands.
I understand the reason of not running the score up. but at this point in the season it doesnt matter it. i can understand not running it up in the reg season. but during the playoffs it should not matter. If your still playing this late in the year and u can show a would be next opponet that u can dismantle a good team then by all means do it. It helps put fear into a team that u may play at state or the next year.
