Contenders or Pretenders for Pikeville's throne?

Sure Boykins and Birchfield are great, but it’s the big boys up front that separate Pikeville from the other 1A schools. Year in and year out Pikeville puts out a huge offensive line that no 1A program can compare to. That’s no different this year and you put an elite RB behind them in Birchfield and I’m not sure there’s a 1A program that can compete.

Hazard was Pikeville's toughest game besides Russellville last year in Class 1A.

Besides Raceland, Hazard is the one I would probably put next in line. I don't believe Hazard can beat Pikeville but I didn't believe they could beat them two years ago, either. There is some familiarity there being in the same district and having played multiple times. I think Pikeville beats almost everyone in 1A even on a bad night, but a bad night against Hazard might be enough to cause an upset.
