backinblack2000 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I mentioned the 2009 Paducah Tilghman team in the 3a thread as being a team who won State with a 4-6 regular season record. Does anyone know of a team having a worse record going into the playoffs and winning State??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugatti Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 That has to be the winner, doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plantmanky Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Didn't Highlands go 0-10 and win a title? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockinGa Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Were any of the 6 losses forfeits? Trinity has won twice with a 6-4 regular season record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastern Ky Kidds Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 From brief research, No State Champion at least since 1998 has lost more than 3 games in a season. The exception to that being Newport Central Cath twice, Louisville Central twice, and the PT team that was mentioned. I would argue that with the current format that no 4-6A team will win a state championship with a losing record. Many of the better 1-2A can't get teams in their class to play so I could see a potiental smaller school making the nearly impossible happen. @plantmanky I also came across this head scratcher with the 2004 Highlands team. Results show they forfeited all but 1 game and ended up winning State 22-6 over Boyle. Not sure how that's possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The exception to that being 2006 Newport Central Cath with 5 loses and Louisville Central lost 5 games in 2007 and 6 games in 2010, and the PT team that was mentioned. @plantmanky I also came across this head scratcher with the 2004 Highlands team. Results show they forfeited all but 1 game and ended up winning State 22-6 over Boyle. Not sure how that's possible. When Mike Mitchell was ruled ineligible leading into the Championship game. Highlands finished the season at 2-13. Talk about a classic thread. For purposes of this thread I was eliminating forfeited records. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

75center Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 All Highlands wins were restored several years ago, I believe they went 15-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tcjkbt Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Trinity lost 4 games on their way to winning the 4A title in 2003. Didn't Trinity start off 0-5 one year and then win the State? Included in the losing streak were close losses to Seneca and Manual, if memory serves. Brian Brohm was the QB? Beat St. X 17-14 for the title. (I may be way off base and/or mixing up seasons. If so, someone please correct me.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They lost their district to Seneca, then reeled off 10 or 11 wins in a row, beating St. X 17-14 in the championship game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestDanville Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 All Highlands wins were restored several years ago, I believe they went 15-0. Still on the KHSAA site as forfeits. They also lost to Elder that year 25-15 or something like that. 14-1 was their on the field record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
