8/29 - Honey Bowl

Powell County at Breathitt County. 

So with a lot of the bowl games announced, which ones looks to be most exciting to travel too?

They have been.  In ‘22 they were the Class A Runner-Up down in Tennessee. I don’t think they will remotely be able to match up anywhere on the field with Glasgow, though, especially in the speed department.

Friday nights in Celina, TN have been much, much better than what they were previously accustomed to prior to 2016-2017 or so, though. 

Beat Monroe 21-6 this past season. Glasgow should be  improved as they return the majority of their starters. If Clay is as good as last year it could be good ball game.  I agree they will have trouble matching Glasgow speed.

Rafferty's Bowl
Aug 23 at Western Kentucky University
Boyle County vs. Bullitt East
Bowling Green vs. Owensboro Catholic

Evidently there's going to be a venue change for the Rafferty's Bowl due to a scheduling issue at WKU. The bowl is now going to be played at BGHS.

For the Pike County Bowl, I believe East Ridge is the last team looking for an opponent.

August 29
Martin County vs. Pike County Central - 6:00pm (unsure of location)
Cabell Midland (WV) at Pikeville - 8:30pm
Central at Belfry - 8:30pm

Looks like East Ridge is taking on Somerset in the Pike County Bowl.

Need to verify where the East Ridge and Pike County Central will be hosting each of their games still.

Actually, I was corrected on this. Apparently the East Ridge vs. Somerset game is part of a '25/'26 bowl being played at South Laurel. So I guess that means East Ridge will not be taking part in the Pike County Bowl this year, and presumably next yer.

Mingua Beef Jerky Bowl
Aug 22 at Henry Clay
Collins vs. Lafayette - 6:00pm
Henry Clay vs. ?? - 8:30pm

Henry Clay is playing North Oldham.

The schedule released by Collins showed Collins playing Lafayette at Henry Clay at 6:00pm, and the schedule released by Henry Clay showed Henry Clay playing North Oldham at Lafayette at 6:00pm. Henry Clay and Lafayette switched off locations for the Migua Beef Jerky Bowl the last couple of years and Lafayette hosted in 2024, which would presumably make this a Henry Clay year, but I guess we'll have to wait for some clarification here.

Per Lafayette's schedule, the bowl has changed up names and will be the Fayette County Frenzy Bowl this year, and with Collins' revised schedule, it looks like Lafayette, Henry Clay and Collins all are copacetic with the bowl game being hosted at Lafayette.

GRC has put their schedule out and will be playing Hurricane (WV) in a bowl game at home on Aug 29. Not sure whether or not anyone else will be playing in that bowl.

Battle of Elkhorn Creek
Aug 22 at Scott County
Franklin County vs. Great Crossing
Scott County vs. ??

Franklin County has released their 2025 schedule and they're showing a game against Great Crossing on August 22nd. Madison Southern played Great Crossing last year in this bowl, and Madison Southern's athletic department schedule currently shows their football team with a "??" opponent for August 22nd, so I'm not sure if that means they begged out on the 2025 edition of the Battle Of Elkhorn Creek and haven't found someone to play that week yet, or if they just haven't officially gotten word on which team they're playing.

Scott County is going to be playing George Rogers Clark in the Battle of Elkhorn Creek.
