Is there a little homerism with Hopkinsville....Even after a convincing loss to Tilghman, you still rank them higher and then rank them ahead of Graves and Marshall too...WOW...I can see still putting them in the Top 10, but, I'd venture to say, noone else will have them close to this high...

I'm not one to question other people's opinions but will defend myself when others want to call me out.

 

It wasn't a convincing loss to PT. PT was given a gift TD after recovering a fumble inside the 10 on a punt return on a questionable call. They scored later on a bobbled punt snap. Hoptown was in the game well into the final few minutes of the 4th quarter. PT made the plays to win and congratulations to them.

 

I've been forutnate to talk with sveral Coaches around the region and take some of what they say and put them into my rankings.

 

Call it homerism if you wish. I call it knowing more about Hopkinsville than others on the board do. That's for the staff of coaches that was at the Hoptown Calloway Co. game a few weeks and spent a good portion of the game trying to figure out who Tigertalker was and questioning every other coach in the state. Glad to see they pay attention when I talk. I will release the Tigertalker book in the spring.

You cannot take a great deal away from the results of games this past weekend. With the conditions most teams had to play in anyone could come away with a win by any margin. The only game that probably had an accurate score was the OHS/Apollo game. They played on the turf so muddy conditions didn't play a part in their game.

Not meaning to call you out TT..I've read a good # of your posts and you know what your talking about when it comes to the Tigers....I wasn't aware of how the game was played, just looked at the score and it looked pretty convincing on the scoreboard...I would personally have PT higher and according to most pollsters on here, they would too...Considering Graves beat both PT and Mayfield, who both beat Hopkinsville and was coming off a solid win over Marshall Co. and have an 8-2 record, I'd put them ahead as well...Noone is questioning Hoptowns athleticism and capabilities, but, fact is, it's what you do on the field that matters and frankly they've been less than stellar all year...I know they've had some injuries, but, so has everyone else and thats a part of it...

Good point. You can only rank a team on how good they should be for so long.
