Hopkins Central came into this season with high expectations due to having so many returning starter and a Mack truck in the backfield in Calil McNary, but they've dropped a couple of games they probably shouldn't have and now find their backs against the walk against a good McLean County team. McLean played well last week against a very good Union County team. I'm expecting a win from McLean, but wouldn't be totally shocked to hear that Hopkins Central got the victory either. It'll either be McLean in a blowout or Hopkins Central in a tight one... 

Bump.

This game came down to the wire with Central taking the lead with under 2 minutes to go, only to have that lead evaporate in about 1 minute. McLean won the game when their 2 point conversion was good. McLean won, 28-27 and will have a big match-up against Webster County next Thursday. 

Good game! I thought Hopkins County should’ve kicked that extra point on their last score to put them up 8. Who knows what would’ve happened in OT.
