If the Taylor County/Tilghman thread is correct and several players from Taylor County were ejected from their game last Friday against Marion County, then putting the pieces together helps make sense of this game being canceled.

From Central athletics Facebook page:

"Due to unforeseen circumstances Marion Co. has withdrawn from the class 4A football playoffs. We will be playing the winner of the Valley/North Oldham game on Friday, Nov. 11.

Marion already had 8 players out for injuries, and 5 more were suspended after the game with Taylor County.  They just don't have the numbers to fill a team without putting people places they have never played before.  Why would you send out a freshmen that you are going to have to move a different position against a team like Central?  You are just asking for more injuries.  

It appears there was an incident in the Taylor Co Marion Co game. Due to the events Marion Co has withdrawn from the playoffs. 

There is a video of the fight on Facebook on Football of Kentucky DBA page

That is correct.  On Saturday, we spoke with some of the Marion Co. faithful (Bullitt East and Marion County play in the same youth league) and apparently the game was called in the 3rd quarter because of the fight that broke out.
