Not even close.

Shofner looks like a quick scat back.  Good runner.

First of all, congrats to BC for making it to the 3rd round.  With that being said, they came out of an extremely bad district.  Owensboro will do what they want, how they want and when they want.  Owensboro will go all Barry Switzer on them and hang half a hundred on them in the 1st half.

I agree, but O needs to play focused.  Let’s face it districts 1 and 2 have the best teams out of the west.  Districts 3 and 4 are lagging.  I’m guessing O, BG, Graves, South Warren and Greenwood would all beat Bullitt Central AND South Oldham pretty easily.

There is a lot of folks sleeping on this Owensboro team.  I think they are better than last years squad.  So good defensively and their running attack makes them more balanced on offense.  I am looking forward to seeing how the matchups around the state play out on Friday and where the Final 4 will take the Devils.  They are going to cruise in this one.

Goodwin for O is 1 QB sack away from being the Owensboro all-time single season leader.  The current leader, Skortz had 11.5 in 2019, Goodwin has 11 right now.  And Drew Lanz has set the single season extra point record, now at 77.  He bested his own record from last year.
