Mater Dei is pleased to be in the Sectional Championship game and understands it faces a huge hurdle in Gibson Southern. GS is appropriately favored by double-digits and many consider this game a near shoo-in for the Titans, going so far as to suggest the Titans roll the Cats by 3 TDs more. Could be, we'll see. Mater Dei will show up anyway and give it their best. We will see if it is enough.
IMHO, for MD to win...they will have to score at least 24 pts and hold GS to 21 or less. Monumental tasks on both fronts to be certain. MD's defense played really well for 46:51 of their game against Memorial and then fell apart in shocking fashion. MD will need a similar effort on D tonight vs Titans for the full 48 mins. On offense, they will need to do something different IMHO. They have been far too predictable on offense this year, allowing opposing D's to really dig in on certain tendencies.
However, I am a devout homer for the Wildcats and my prediction is 24 - 21 Mater Dei in an upset to be heard around the state on Class 3A. Go Wild Cats!
