George Rogers Clark travels to Mercer County. GRC is a super-talented 6A team, although they have yet to get a win this season. They're victims of a BRUTAL schedule. Mercer County is coming off a bye week, four wins in-a-row, and a district championship. With playoffs around the corner, what is each team's outlook for this game?

The Cardinals will need to play a mistake-free ballgame to get the win at Mercer County on Friday night.

 

No turnovers.

Cardinals get the win.

 

28 to 21.

Taking care of business by winning this game at home would show that Mercer has really improved over the season. GRC may be winless, but they have played such a difficult schedule that they are a quality opponent for Mercer. Hope that Mercer continues on their upswing with a big win.

Buchanan still running the same 4-4 that he ran at Mason County?

Not sure I would call Montgomery Co. Bourbon, Anderson and Madison Central brutal. It's a stiff schedule but that haven't really competed in most of the games. I think they should win tonight but who knows. Was on the sideline for a game of theirs last year and it took me almost a qtr and a half to figure out which of the coaches was the head coach. Thats a bad sign in my opinion.

GRC wins by 13--avoiding the winless season; as they are up against it again next week
