A fellow Pirate pan posted this video and it is awesome and significant.

 

Pikeville entered with a 33 game win streak and had risen to elite status in Kentucky regardless of class. This is how the streak ended and a throwback to old school wishbone football set in Vipperman Stadium aka Death Valley. Great watch for KY High School History Buffs.

 

Also for those curious here are highlights from the great 1988 Panther team taking on Belfry the year prior.

 

And here is Pikeville vs. Beechwood in that 1989 Season meeting in the State Semi's

I remember the 89 Belfry team well. I have film of the highlands/belfry playoff OT game.

Would love to see that... legendary game that literally was decided by inches. A game that will always be a soft spot in the hearts of Belfry fans and make them wonder "What could have been?" The guy who posted the 89 video also posted a snippet of the 1990 Belfry/Highlands Pike County Bowl... a much more happier memory for Belfry fans HAHA

That is so awesome. The teams. The style of play (it will come back main stream one day) and the soundtrack you put together.

J.J. Bailey, remember him well.
