War

I say the Dragons will come away with this one fairly easy. After an impressive win at Hazard, they come in with some momentum. If they stop Pike they win easy.

A few days ago I thought this would be a war, but not so sure right now. Evarts played with Clay County last week until Jimmy Pike went down with a knee injury after a nice run for a 1st down inside the Clay 20 yd line. He

did not return to the game. This happened with about 7 min left in the 1st half with Clay leading 14-6. Evarts did gain a 1st down but was negated by a procedure call and failed to convert on 4th down. The rest of the 1st half and the game belonged to Clay County. Clay scored on a long and controversial play at the end of the 1st half to take a 35-6 lead but this play had no bearing on the outcome of the game. Starting midle linebacker Adam Helton did not play due to a shoulder injury. I don't know what their status is for Friday's Alumni Bowl, but if neither play this game could be ugly. The defensive line will have to play better, the Clay QB had all day to wait for his receivers to break open and Derek Cochran was under a lot of pressure all night.

Anyone know Pike's status for Friday?

Well, there is some hatred involved between these two teams and seeing that Harlan just came off of a big high beating Hazard the way that they did, and Evarts is hurting early I see a twist in this one. While Harlan will come out on top, I think they will come out of the gates kind of slow and maybe a little bit over confident from last weeks win. Evarts on the other hand hasn't beaten Harlan in quite some time so I know they hate Harlan up there and will bring there "A" game. However, I don't think their "A" game will match up with Harlan. This will be a slow start for Harlan who will pull away big in the end.

Could be a BIG night for Chase Jones, Jon Lundy (both on the ground AND through the air) and Will Pope. If Jones makes good reads, and it is dry

(always rains when these two play) he could easily have a 250+ yard game.
