Anyone who saw this game saw a Rockcastle offensive line completely manhandle whitley D-line and basically run at will. The big boys up front put on a clinic and wore Whitley down. When the stats come out I say Rock has close to if not more than 400 rushing yards. As I predicted it came down to if Rock defense could make one or two plays to get a stop and they came up with one 4th down on the 11 up 43-35 under a minute to go and got the 4th down stop. Was a great game and hats off to Whitley they have a great passing game

Every bit as good as our run game! Good luck rest of the season!

Rock is giving up a lot of points, but they're also scoring big numbers. Impressed to see their early season success after losing so much off last year's team.

In my opinion this is the best offense we have had in many years. Our line is bigger than last year and much stronger. Our running game is deep we use 4-5 backs and just keep coming down hill at you. Right now our best wide receiver has been hurt since opening kickoff last week game against lincoln with an ankle injury should be back in a week or so hopefully so that has limited our passing game. Our defense secondary is small and young. We play 4 freshman on the team which has contributed to the high point totals hopefully they get better as the season goes along and our injured WR plays in the secondary so that should improve some when he get back. Overall they are a solid football team with a lot of heart and grit.

Official stats posted Rock rushed for 453 yards. 62 attempts that averages out to 7.3 yards per attempt. Was some serious ground and pound going on. Good job O-Line. Still needs work in the passing game. But was still amazing feat to have that many rushing yards against a big physical d-line like Whitley County that only allowed 14 total points to Corbin and 13 points to Leslie county and for a team that had not aloud a second half score in those two games. Rock scored 21 in the first half and 23 in the 2nd half. Rock trailed 21-28 at halftime and was down 35-21 in the 3rd.
