TheDeuce Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Class 4A Nine of the top ten teams this week either won or were open, with no marquee games between ranked teams. The most significant game was Corbin hosting Lincoln County. The Redhounds were fresh off a dominating 34-7 win over Knox Central and perhaps could be accused of looking forward to Wayne County next week. They scratched out a 14-8 win, stopping Lincoln County twice inside the two yard line. That loss propelled Lincoln County into the Top Ten, and the win preserved the massive #5 Corbin/#6 Wayne County matchup this week. Hopkinsville was the lone loss in the Top Ten, as their COVID derailed season finally saw them exit the top ten in an ugly 31-7 loss to Logan County. This week is a week we've been looking forward to, with three games featuring Top Ten teams matched against each other, highlighted by #4 Franklin County hosting #3 Central. That matchup is a classic strength vs. strength matchup, pitting Franklin County's high octane offense against Central's stout defense. Last season the Flyers got the best of Central in the regular season, but fell in the postseason 18-7. The aforementioned Corbin/Wayne County matchup will likely decide the #1 seed for District 7, as it did a season ago. Wayne County got the best of both of those matchups, scratching out an 18-16 win in the regular season and a 63-49 win in the postseason. Lastly, #9 Letcher County Central will become the latest team to take aim at #1 Johnson Central. Johnson Central has won 20 games in a row and 33 of their last 34. 1.

WKY_Football Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Hopkinsville has to be one of the more unpredictable and disappointing teams in the state so far this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LethalPG Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I don't think Corbin was looking ahead against Lincoln County. Lincoln is a pretty good football team with a very dynamic player in Clayton Davis at QB. Their only true blunder this year is not being able to tackle Sloan from Wayne Co., and many teams have that issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Corbin wins that game more times than not, but the gap isn’t that wide. Lincoln has a very solid club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
