If they beat us in 2001 that would mean that we lost to them 5 years in a row. According to the KHSAA scoreboard they beat us 35-20 in 1999 and we beat them in 2000, 45-21 and 2001, 37-8.

 

Corbin and Laurel Co./South Laurel stopped playing in the early 80's until the mid-late 1990's.

 

Is 2003 and 2004 the only years that Corbin and North have played?

The first time south had beaten Corbin in the History of the school was in 2001. Until then South Laurel had never beat Corbin in Football.

 

The old Laurel Co. school(before the split) never got a win against Corbin either. South has had our number lately though, but it should change next year.

Maybe Whitley will fill the open slot......................or maybe feelings will change and Bell might slide back on the schedule, but I doubt it.

I understand that Whitley maybe playing Bell next year. I was wandering

what the problem is that you are refering to between Bell & Corbin. Was it

the T.R. christopher situation or is it that they don't think they can play with Bell anymore?

I'm sure that Corbin will always think that they can play with Bell and with the players they have returning for the next couple of years would more than likely be favored over Bell. Bell has won 3 in a row and 4 of the last 6 games though, but it has nothing to do with the competition end of it.

 

Ask Coaches Hilton & Greer, they should know why.

Yes it will be different next year. I don't know if feelings will change or not:argue:

Do you know what that does to the SEKC? Will there be one anymore with middlesboro & Corbin not playing Bell. Plus Clay County going to 5A they will

not be playing Bell & Knox anymore. If Corbin schedule is like you say it is,

then they will not be playing anyone in the SEKC. Are they playing Pineville

in the Grid again?

There is only two games for coribn set in stone that i know of for sure, Belfry and Danville.

This is not about Corbin coaches or Bell Co. coaches , this is a rival between two good programs and great fan support. If this is about coaches, put it to rest and let the players play and fans enjoy a great game with great atmosphere on friday night.

I would really like to know what it is that seems to be the problem.

I have heard

 

2) Corbin dosen't want to play Bell Because they can't beat them.

3) corbin coaches don't like Coach Hilton & Coach Greer- a former Rehound

himself.

4) Bell is too Physical!

5) Bell's middle school program is too strong and will not be able to compete

in the future.

6) Corbin dosen't have room on the schedule.

 

I just really want to know because I hear so many different things. Over the

past 50 years of play between Corbin and Bell I would bet that Corbin probablly holds a 35-15 series advantage if not more.

I might have a solution to this whole thing. When Corbin comes to Middlesboro

friday night. Why not let Coach Hilton and Coach Greer take on Coach Jewel

and Coach Farris in a tag team match on Pineville's field Friday before they both play. Coach Jewel and Farris can go on to Middlesboro and Coach Hilton and Greer can go back to log mtn. to play their games that night. Pineville plays on saturday so their field will be open for friday afternoon and let's get this thing settled. I bet you when Madon & Cashen went to Corbin they never thought they wouldn't have a chance to play Bell their senior year.

But, Corbin wasn't doging anybody then. I am glad M'boro and Corbin are in the same district next year or that incredible series would probably be over.

We beat them 3 years ago so surely that isn't the case.

3) Corbin coaches don't like Coach Hilton & Coach Greer- a former Rehound

himself.

I'm not around the coaches to know if this is true or not.

4) Bell is too Physical!

That wasn't the case this year. Corbin was the more physical team to most's eyes.

5) Bell's middle school program is too strong and will not be able to compete

in the future.

One word describes Corbin's 8th grade class. TOUGH! One word describes Corbin's 7th grade class. SCARY!

6) Corbin dosen't have room on the schedule.

I've heard this one too but you make room for this game. You don't have to work a Corbin/Bell game in. It should be as automatic as a district game on the schedule.

I agree with you and for those reasons, I've tried to answer them the best that I can. I really don't want to see this rivalry end.

Bell middle already beat Corbin in a scrimage earlier in the season by at least 4 touchdowns Bell middle is really tough this year they beat a Clay County team that has not lost a game in 3 years so it will be a good one at the end of the year when these two teams play.

Did Bell win both the 7th and 8th grade scrimmages against the Hounds? I was told differently by a pretty good source. I was told Corbin won the 7th grade scrimmage, both teams get a re-match soon according to my sources.

Thanks Hound82 for your insight. I hope you and the Corbin faithful can talk this rematch up for many years to come. If the game two weeks ago wasn't enough reason for this series to continue, then nothing ever will be.

Corbin had their way in the 7th grade game. Another reason why the high

school series should continue. It seems to me that each team has traded victories within the middle school the past few years, if you use that as a

measuring stick. So let the series cotinue!
