Outside of Mayfield and PT, the far west is very weak.  McCracken has moved down a tier, and even when they had those "good" teams in their early years they didn't make any significant playoff noise.  Other than Graves Co's one title game appearance, they are average on an annual basis.  Murray is middling.  Hopkinsville/Christian Co fell of the map of competitiveness.  Marshall Co hasn't been consistently good since the 90's.  Calloway is in the same boat as Marshall.  That's it.  Two teams.  And Mayfield and PT are stuck playing alot of these teams simply from a geographic and financial perspective.

I watched CCH/Beechwood game online.  CCH showed fortitude coming back from being down 21-0.  Those QB runs in the second half, combined with Beechwood stalling on offense, helped them pull out the win.  It was either team's game though.

I watched Mayfield/PT game in person.  PT has the reputation of letting their frustration get the better of them in close games with penalties.  There were several pivotal plays in the second half to swing the momentum, and Mayfield had chances but couldn't take advantage.  PT did exactly that and put a firm grip on all the big plays in the 4th quarter and took that game.

I honestly think this game is a tossup.  I give PT the higher ceiling, but I give CCH the higher floor.  Both very good teams.  I would say I will try and watch it on my phone, but I will have all my attention on the field at War Memorial.

Does Tilghman have a radio station that broadcasts their games?

Yes it’s 94.3 in Paducah.  And you can get it online too

With a Spirit that Will Not Die.

101 to 82 CCH in the poll. 

The weather is going to feel like the mid to high 20s for the game, that's cold!

Looks like this game will now be on the NFHS:

Going to be tough stepping out of Saddle before kickoff into the dark and dreary night but must abandon my post before it’s overrun with Red. 

@FrankNicodemusjust asked the same question I was thinking in the Cooper/Highlands thread. Does this cold weather favor the Colonels significantly as the Blue Tornadoes want to throw throw throw?

If someone were to choose between NFHS or the Covington Catholic website to purchase their stream from, what would be your best option? 

I'm sure some have watched games on both I would think.

CovCath and there is no debate about this.  All the NFHS will be is a lesser version of what you are buying from CovCath. 

I just paid for the game direct from Covington Catholic, it is only $10 and worth twice that:
