Hey @RebelI'm with Boyle Co. ?

The one game that stands out to me is the common game with FD! Corbin struggled while Boyle rolled! Coach Haddix is looking to add some more hardware to that heavy hand! I think Boyle wins this one in a dog fight! 
 

Boyle- 21

Corbin- 17

If not this year, I'm not sure ever. I think the Hounds do it! 

 

Corbin 38 

Boyle County 35 

Should be a great game & championship atmosphere at Boyle. Both teams are solid defensively and I look for a real similar score from last years matchup. Quisenberry is the X Factor, Boyle 28-24.

I tend to agree with you on the score. However, comparing the two games might not be the best approach. Corbin/Douglass was earlier in the season and the Redhounds roster was just rounding into shape. Boyle/Douglass was the last game of the season when all the pieces were in place.

Actually, the all-time series between Boyle County and Corbin is tied at 4 games to 4.   The teams first met in 1977 in the regional championship game at Boyle with Corbin winning 37-15.  They again met in the regional championship in 1982 at Corbin.  Corbin won again 28-13.  In 1992 Corbin won at home with a 10-7 victory in a 1st round playoff game.  They met again in the 1st round in 1994, with Boyle winning 14-7 at home.  The next meeting wasn’t until 2010 in the Cumberland Falls Pigskin Classic at Corbin, which Boyle won 42-10.  In the 2017 state championship game Boyle won 40-21.  In 2018, Boyle traveled to Corbin in the state semi-finals and Corbin blanked the Rebels 21-0.  In 2022 Boyle prevailed 32-26 in the state championship game.  It has been a great series between two very proud programs.

 

I was a Freshman at Boyle during the first meeting in '77.  It was close at half early 3rd Quarter then Corbin just took control of the game with their size and strength.  One of the strongest teams I've ever seen physically.  I know the '82 team is personal for you Paul Dean.  That game Corbin just ran and ran the ball and controlled the clock.  Converted a lot of 3rd Downs as I recall and kept Mike Harmon for Boyle bottled up on the ground.  

 

Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

I use that game because it is hard to judge growth for Corbin based off the games to follow! They beat JC easily but the following were blowout wins. How do you gauge growth of a team when the schedule presents itself as soft! This has been the issue for other teams on this site people focus so heavily on the strength of schedule. I am sure Corbin has improved but just as you stated that it was earlier in the season Douglass has improved since as well!
 

Boyle has beat LCA, Scott Co, Lex Cath, and Douglass at this point. All of those teams have been considered top tier in their perspective classes.

To this point Corbin has beat Catholic and Douglass the later part of this schedule is soft. The theatrics of the NIL deals and things may fool some but there is still 48 mins of football to be played and I just don’t see them beating Boyle at this point! 

Will this game be live streamed? 

The twins are awesome and a bonafide defensive force. But Haddix is a KY H.S. offensive whiz. I'm sure he has created so many offensive schemes to avoid them. And truth be told, having Bodner run wildcat will likely be a key part of that. 

First one to 21 wins this game.  Both defenses are too good to allow much more than that IMO.

Boyle Co 35

Corbin 14

Game stays close early and Boyle pulls away late to a 42-21 win. Of course, games can totally change when you factor in turnovers and explosive plays. If Boyle doesn't turn the ball over and doesn't let Corbin get behind them, I see Boyle winning. However, these are young men in front of a lot of people in a big game, you never know, it's the type of game the players will always remember, regardless the outcome...
