I don't know the exact score, but I hear Colerain steamrolled Highlands like 45-15. Can't wait to get a breakdown of the game from H&G. I couldn't find any posts about the game on JJHuddle. Thanks in advance.

Go Bucks!!! In Tress We Trust.

Highlands picked the wrong week to play Colerain.

The nationally ranked Cardinals, coming off a 7-0 upset loss to St. Xavier in their opener, blasted the Bluebirds 45-14 Saturday night in the i-wireless FOX19 Prep Classic at Paul Brown Stadium.

Colerain, the reigning Ohio Division I champion ranked No. 13 nationally by USA Today, took out its fury on the defending Kentucky Class AAA champs.
Colerain quarterback Gary Pride and running back Terrence Sherrer each scored twice, and Eugene Clifford returned a punt 86 yards for a score.
Attendance was estimated at about 10,000 for the game, the marquee event of the four-game Prep Classic day at Paul Brown Stadium.

Pride carried 13 times for 129 yards and completed 2 of 5 passes for 21 yards. Last week, Pride was held to 8 rushing yards and was 0-for-4 passing with three interceptions.

Sherrer carried 10 times for 104 yards for Colerain, and Trammell Williams carried seven times for 82 yards and a TD.
Highland was held to 3 total rushing yards through three quarters, before both teams began pulling their starters.

Colerain simply had too much speed and athleticism for Highlands, a fact frequently noted by TV announcers Dan Hoard, Cris Collinsworth and Anthony Munoz. The game was telecast live by Fox19 to the Cincinnati area.

It was the first meeting between the Greater Cincinnati powers. The mismatch was evident on the field but not altogether surprising, given the difference in enrollment and Colerain's bigger talent pool.
Highlands' enrollment equates to the Division III level in Ohio, while Colerain is Division I.

Highlands coach Dale Mueller was on the sidelines for the first time this season. Mueller was suspended by the Kentucky High School Athletic Association for Highlands' first two games as part of the punishment for using an ineligible player last season.

Highlands was off to a 2-0 start this year, having blanked two Northern Kentucky teams by a combined 70-0 score.

Colerain coach Kerry Coombs said he received a call from legendary former Princeton coach Pat Mancuso early last week, telling him to stay the course after Pride struggled in the opener.

Mancuso, who coached Princeton to three state titles before retiring in 1996, remains a presence on the Cincinnati prep football scene and counsels area coaches.

"Pat said to just keep doing what we're doing," Coombs said. "We're still a good football team."

Colerain entered the year ranked No. 1 in the Enquirer Ohio area Division I poll but fell to No. 4 after losing to St. Xavier.

Highlands is No. 1 in the Northern Kentucky rankings.

Highlands' regular quarterback, Chase Cecil, played only briefly.

Cecil has had shoulder problems, and fellow senior Chad Hudepohl replaced him early in Saturday's game.

Hudepohl also was knocked out of the game late in the third quarter with an undisclosed injury.

Colerain grabbed a 10-0 lead by early in the second quarter. The Cardinals fired the first salvo of speed in the person of Clifford, who raced 86 yards to score on a punt return 6:20 into the game.

Still, Highlands was within 17-14 as late as 1:36 left in the opening half.
Colerain led 24-14 by halftime, as Pride ran 19 yards for a TD with 45 seconds left before the break. Colerain rushed for 224 yards in the first half alone.

Highlands tight end Ben Guidugli caught a 68-yard TD pass from Hudepohl in the first half but through three quarters, Highlands netted only 128 total yards.

Colerain poured it on with a 21-0 third quarter, good for a 45-14 lead.

Colerain rushed for 118 yards in the third quarter alone. .

Like week 2 in 2000 and 2002 the new QB finally 'got it' with the option. The coaches made some adjustments with Gary by not having him read the G/T with the ball in the FB's belly...instead Gary made the read while taking the snap and decided to give it to the FB or continue with the option down the line. This adjustment allowed him to use his speed and running ability and to gain the much needed confidence.

Highlands was overmatched in this game...Colerain's massive line dominated the smaller Bluebirds...Connor had a great game with at least five pancakes.

...But on to 'Bobby Boucher'...

Tyler had (by my count) 5 qb pressures, 2 tackles for loss, one sack, one pass defensed and one knocked out QB. Again, the offensive game plan of a Colerain opponent took the flow of play away from T-Moe's side. Tyler played mostly contain all night.

on a side note...I just got a digital camera and I plan on posting my own pictures of the Colerain recruits in the coming weeks.

Come on out to Crew stadium on friday night, football fans...its a must win game for Colerain and they are representing our great state of Ohio.

Go Cards. Go Bucks....Go Ohio!

Good Lord! What would his numbers be like if they played his way? I think the opposing team would run out of QB's before half.

Thanks for keeping us up to date.

Another QB out? I really need to watch this kids film. How long did the QB stay out for, i've never heard of a player taking out QBs so often.

actually (and you guys should love this) the hit that took out the qb was a block on an interception return. Tyler pressured the qb and got held/tackled to the ground at the qb's feet. When Tyler got up and saw the pick down field he looked for the first white shirt to hit...and it just happened to be the qb.

the qb had a concussion and did not return...and that was bad for Highlands because he was the back up qb...Cobrani Mixon knocked the starting qb silly on the first series of the game.

Tyler is an undersized kid that has had to use speed and leverage his whole life...he doesn't know the meaning of 'slow down'...he is the special type of player that truly runs through tackles..

Again, I reccoment getting a copy of the state title game from last year. Tyler didn't have big stats in that game...but as bad as Connor Smith made Antwon Hight look on defense, Tyler makes him look worse on offense....

Not to be a pain in the ass, but when can we expect to find out about Tyler's next stop? I've just heard so many different dates, that I'm just curious. H&G, I'm mostly asking you, but if anyone here knows anything, let it fly. This is just an anxious Buckeye fan looking for the next verbal, and Ty looks like a great fit.

Here is what I can tell you...Tyler MADE a choice and coach Coombs, as he does with all of his kids (Remember Cobrani?), told him to take a couple of weeks to think about it before announcing to make sure he was 100% sure. Coombs does this because he teaches his kids to become men and not 'rush' into any decisions. He wants them to be prepared to live with their choices and to think everything through. I commend him for this policy.

..btw...I think its a good thing that Tyler has decided to stay in Columbus for the Texas game for a visit on Saturday. :wink2:
