Pikeville 37, Jenkins 0 - Halftime

That's more like it.

As expected. Didnt really think Pikeville would come out and let an inferior team play with them again. Billyrayjoebob, do you sense Pikeville is turning up the intensity now that its playoff time? I see no reason why Pikeville cant make a run towards Papa Johns this year.

How about Paintsville leading Hazard 14-0 at the half.

^^I think so. Pikeville will be a very tough out for anyone with the playoff games all at home through the semis, especially since Beechwood lost their great tailback...they have the talent if they can keep their emotions under control and maybe catch a break or two...

I called this one. Paintsville always gets better this time of year and Hazard always underachieves.

Hey Windex Man, what about P-burg? Man was I wrong about that team.

Yes, breaks are a big part of being able to win a state championship. Ive seen it first hand from your neighbor across the mountains. Belfry has had plenty of teams capable of winning state but just couldnt ever get the breaks.

Im right there with you. I gave P-burg absolutely no chance of winning this game and man are they proving me wrong.

LOL, same with your neighbors over here on 23. Caught a few breaks the years we won and got some bad breaks other years we should have won...

I have to disagree a little. That '87 team could have caught an abundance of bad breaks and still breezed to a state championship.:ylsuper:

Yeah...the good break was everyone on that team stayed injury-free all year. That doesn't happen very often. This Pikeville team has two guys who played on both sides of the ball out for the year, and a bunch of minor injuries...

Total yards in the 1st half:

 

Pikeville 180

Jenkins -24

I think I saw the '87 Pikeville team play against Pineville in the playoffs.

I always wondered if that '87 team faced any adversity that year. Injuries, player spats etc. Ive always heard they were all good friends as well as great players and teammates. I guess they were the exception to the rule. My senior year at Belfry we had around 4-5 starters out come playoff time and it just caught up to us. More than likely we would have won it all but injuries are part of the game and so the story goes.
