Douglass received the 2nd half kickoff and TJ Horton brought it out to the 34 yard line but the drive stalled. Later in the game Douglass went the length of the field and a Carpenter to Webb pass set up a one yard Ty Bryant touchdown run to put Frederick Douglass up 14 to 7 with 427 left in the 3rd quarter.   After some back and forth Carpenter connected with Thomas Howard for a 21 yard TD pass on a tipped ball to put FD up 21 to 7 with 823 left in the game.  Douglass added an insurance TD with 125 left on a Carpenter to Cam Dunn TD pass to go up 28 to 7 with 125 remaining in the game.

Boyle makes its fourth straight appearance to Kroger field looking for their third consecutive title. This time the opponent is none other than Coach Haddix’s former team, Corbin. Boyle enters the game at 12-2 and Corbin enters at an unblemished 14-0. 
 

The Redhounds have no shortage of offense coming in at a scoring pace of 49 points per game and accumulating an average of 344 yards. Boyle comes in scoring 41 points per game and 340 yards per game. Defensively Corbin is giving up 14 ppg while Boyle is giving up 16. This game is either going to be a shootout for the ages or a defensive showdown. 
 

Being the Friday night game and both teams known for having a fan base that travels well, this might be the most attended game of the 6. It will be a state championship atmosphere without a doubt! We’ve known all year that these were the top of the class and it is only fitting that they will meet each other in the final game, on the states biggest biggest stage to determine your 2022 4A State Champion. Who do you got in the 4A finale? 

The best two teams all season get to square it off at Kroger Field for all the marbles. They’ve been 1 and 2 all season long in the Bluegrass Preps Class 1A Top 10.

Who wins this Battle of the 1A Titans? Does Pikeville make it two in a row? Does Raceland finally claim its first ever Championship?

vs
 

The Purples of Bowling Green (12-2) will take on the Broncos of Frederick Douglass (14-0) in the prime time and final game of the KHSAA UK Health Care Sports Medicine Football Finals.

This game will be between Bowling Green whose offense is as good as it has been all season and is currently clicking on all cylinders and the Frederick Douglass defense which has been as impressive as any in the state this season and has only allowed 15 points in their 4 post season games. This is the Broncos 3rd final appearance in the past 4 seasons. The Purples are playing in the 3rd championship in the past 7 seasons their last two finals appearances resulted in State Championships in 2016 and 2020.

The teams have one common opponent this season in 4A power Boyle Co. The Rebels defeated Bowling Green 35-21 in mid-September at Bowling Green. Frederick Douglass defeated Boyle Co. 37-6 at Boyle on the final game of the regular season. This game will come down to I believe which teams strength will win out the Purples offense or the Broncos defense. It should be a great game to watch both teams have had great season. The game will be on NFHS Network with paid membership not sure of any other venues at this time. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:00pm on Saturday, December 3. Best of luck to both programs!

CAL and Bardstown Convene With State Title, Immortality On The Line

Records: CAL (14-0) | Bardstown (14-0)
BGP Ranking: CAL (#1 in 3A) | Bardstown (#2 in 3A)
Series History: CAL leads 7-3 all-time 

Table Setter: The Class 3A finals certainly hits the high notes. We've got #1 vs. #2. Both are undefeated. "Old money" vs. "New money". 

All that remains is what's ahead: 48 minutes to etch their names in history as undefeated state champions. Kickoff is scheduled for Saturday, December 3rd at 12:00pm (noon).

They're baaack. The Beechwood Tigers and Mayfield Cardinals are no strangers to state title games and they are no strangers to each other. BUT, it has been a while since the Tigers and Cardinals faced each other in a state title game. In fact it has been 20 years since these two met in a championship game. In 2002 the Cardinals and Tigers had a defensive face off with the Cardinals winning 14-7. It would not shock me to see a score like that in this one. These two teams are at the top of class 2A in team defense with the Tigers allowing 8 points per game and the Cardinals allowing 9 points per game. They are also #1 and #2 in scoring margin with the Tigers outscoring opponents by 34.2 per game and the Cardinals at 34.1. This game looks like another classic matchup. Despite the emotion and playoff rivalry between these two teams, there is mutual respect for each other. So much respect that the Beechwood community was one of the first to send support to Mayfield after the tragic tornado they suffered. The storylines in this game are epic. It is going to be a fun week leading up to the Friday December 2 kickoff at 4 pm in Lexington at Kroger Field.

Male (10-4) survives two close games with St. X and Ballard to make it to the finals 5 straight times. Bullitt East (13-1) beat Male earlier in the season 24-17. Male was missing RB Daniel Swinney in the first matchup. Bullitt East has a high flying offense led by great QB Travis Egan that can make plays with his legs and arm. Bullitt East is making their first championship appearance since 2008 when they were in Class 4A. Does Bullitt East make it two in a row over Male or does Male win the championship since last winning in 2018?

The Breds football program is 86 years old. Why are they still playing their home games on another team's field?

Calpreps has this one Trinity 35-21. I think this is interesting game. Simon Kenton's strength is their offense and Trinity their defense. Trinity also has great FG kicker who hit a 41 yd one last night. May come down to team with least amount of turnovers wins. I'll go with Trinity by 7.

SK’s offense is definitely good enough to score some points on this Trinity team. Crone is a playmaker and will give the Rocks some fits.

In the end, I suspect Trinity wins by 14-17 points. While Crone is a dynamic player, he can’t be expected to beat a defense like this by himself.

I look for Simon Kenton going for it on 4th down a lot in this game. The only way they can win this is to find a way to outscore Trinity and they cannot give up on scoring on a single offensive possession. They need to extend their offensive possessions to keep their own defense off the field.

The Cardinals make their way to David Cecil Memorial stadium in round two. Both teams handled their first round opponents. Who wins and why? 

Two interesting notes on the game (at least to me): 

1. HHS saw the return of Matteo Matteoli last night. Matteo has game changing potential and forces teams to take some attention off of Charlie Noon. I am interested to see how he is used in round 2. 

2. Scott Co. brings in one of the more difficult offenses in the state to defend. The Birds defense will have lock in and read their "keys" and not get caught up in the window dressing of the option offense or we could see a shoot out in Ft. Thomas.
