Hillsboro @ Shelbyville - 1st Round

[sportsguy22]

Anyone know what's going on with Hillsboro?? Is Covington still the tailback? He ran all over Shelbyville last year in the 2nd Round en route to the second straight year Hillsboro eliminated the Eagles from the playoffs. The Burros barely beat Hillwood and Hunters Lane the last two weeks, which is very surprising. Shelbyville is very solid on defense with an offense that can be good at times, yet definitely inconsistent. Will the Golden Eagles finally take down Hillsboro after 14 unsuccessful tries?

Injuries in the QB and RB positions and they didnt have dept when they had to start freshman's. From what I'm seeing everybody will be back this week.

Are they healthy or did Maurice find some kids “walking the halls”?

They have a huge line when healthy but I do not think they have the elite level players across the board like in the past.  Covington, though, can make you pay anytime he touches the ball.

Has Covington been playing all season and putting up big numbers? Or is he hurt or off the team?

He puts up good numbers when he is not hurt.  He has been hurt a lot this year.

Hillsboro is on Hunters Lane and Hillwoods level of play.... this is not the Hillsboro of old.

I don’t know, I think Shelbyville is the better team.  Since they have found a defense this year they are tougher all around.

If Hillsboro has everyone healthy it could be interesting. They have certainly been up and down. Played a very good PC team very close. I think Shelbyville is playing the best football in Region 5 right now, but wouldn’t be shocked if they’re upset.
