The Dawgs are still hunting for a 10th game to finish out their schedule.

Also....it looks like as of now, the E-town game is scheduled for a Sunday?

Word is Pikeville will be traveling to Fairdale Week 6.

Looks like that plan fell through. Fairdale will be playing at Frankfort in Week 6.

All the challenging games are definitely in the first half of the season.

I'm curious if dropping from 6A to 5A will help Butler. They've been pretty bad the last couple of years but traditionally have held their own in 6A, winning a playoff game or two some. Atherton seems much improved over the last several seasons. Doss has a new coach and has had their moments over the last decade. I think Fairdale should still be the district favorite (I know Doss isn't a district game), but those games above could still be challenging.

I never quite grasped until recently, after the Big 3, Manual/Ballard/Central, how immense of a falloff there is in Louisville HS football among the 4A/5A/6A schools... Like Fairdale could go undefeated and only have a #8 ranked RPI...  Like when Seneca had their early run last season, I believe they lost to Atherton and that was allllll she wrote. 

You have the Bruins annually playing Male, Trinity, etc... Fairdale players and parents get to look forward to a seismic tilt vs Eastern and anticipating visiting the Panthers of Frankfort! Sheesh...
