Pretty big matchup in Class 3A this week with highly ranked Elizabethtown facing off against a Bardstown team just outside the top ten. Can Bardstown win at E-town?

Etown rolls. It's not the Bardstown of old.

I would disagree that this is a big matchup, E-town has a running clock on Bardstown in the second half. Elizabethtown 42 Bardstown 7

I would disagree about a running clock as Bardstown had some playmakers like Farmer and Dennison. However Etown wins 35-14

I'm very surprised this hasn't elicited more discussion.

 

1) Bardstown may not the the "Bardstown of old," but they did just hold rival Nelson County, with a potent offense, to ZERO points last week!

 

2)the Tigers ALWAYS have athletes which makes this 2-1 team is still dangerous.

 

3) E-town is 4-0 and in the top 10, but after last week's nail-biter with North Hardin and the opening of district slate next week, I have to agree with the article in the Etown paper today: this has the making of a potential upset.

 

4) I'm still not sold on E-town. Yes, they will win their district I believe, but the combined record of their opponents so far this season is 3-13. Marion and West Jess are still searching for a win, North Hardin is 1-3 and North Oldham is 2-2.

 

This is one game I'm keeping my eye on in the Hardin-LaRue-Meade area.
