Going off of what I know about these two privates...

Baylor discipline will be the difference...

Baylor 28

Catholic 21

Agree - Baylor is a very disciplined team.  You make mistakes on them, you pay for it.   And I believe this one is at Baylor so there is that as well.

No doubt Catholic is not hiding from anyone with the schedule they are starting out with. Knox Catholic has more talent but I'm going with Baylor by a touchdown because of home field.

I think Catholic returned 4 starters on offense and 5 on defense.  I could be wrong.

I'm not sure any Baylor people said that. Regardless Catholic essentially is a D2 school that plays in 5A. I still haven't figured out how they were able to stay when no one else could. But they have a ton of D1 talent just like the Ensworth BA and MBA's of the world. This is the level Baylor plays against weekly. Should be a great game!

and that comin from the guy who said the refs were cheatin and the only ones keepin it close last week....and also the person called  head to head personal foul call by the refs that took a kid out for a few games or more as a bogus ref call that was just too hard a hit for the Irish

of course no one said welcome to DII-AAA

its a public institution Spartan that ant givin out one cent; thats how they stayd

Booger just sayin

We hope you're right Booger!  "Catholic North" had some costly self inflicted wounds against Maryville last week that helped turn the tide in that game (a fumble around the Catholic 25 that resulted in a score and a terrible snap over the punters head in the 2nd half that gave the ball to Maryville inside the Catholic 10yd line- and this resulted in another easy Maryville TD).  "Catholic North" can't afford to make anything easy for Harris & company tonight, especially in the first half.

I think one major key to this game is going to be if "Catholic North" can make Harris earn his production on offense.  While they have trouble stopping good offenses, they are still a very physical and hard hitting defense.  If the Irish D can take some of the wind out of the UT commit's sails, that could bode well for slowing him down just enough on defense.  I'm sure that will be a tall order though.
