The Golden Eagles are rolling past their opponents like they have all season. Their closest game was 28-13 win over Capital WV.

 

The Golden Eagles have 2 regular season games left, both on the road at Letcher County Central and they close out the regular season at Belfry.

 

Can the Golden Eagles keep up this dominance? If so, how much longer can they keep rolling?

I would consider JC a heavy favorite in their last district matchup with Letcher Co. Central. I’m more curious how much, if any a win over Belfry in the road will benefit JC in the RPI standings.

 

In years past, Belfry and JC rested players that were banged up in preparation for playoff runs. With this new RPI system, Belfry stands a lot to benefit from this game, while JC not so much.

 

I think JC would be a couple touchdown favorite against the Pirates, but in years past the “favorite” generally came up on the losing end.

 

As far as a playoff run, I would be shocked if JC didn’t make it through the 3rd round. If the RPI standings held today, JC would likely be on the road at Franklin County the day after Thanksgiving. Not really knowing much, if anything about Franklin County, I hesitate to say who would win the game.

 

But the obvious elephant in the room would be Boyle County, whom I think JC would have to play a nearly flawless game with zero turnovers to win against.
