I do think it's worth remembering that Taylor County started the year 7-0.

They were a really good team for most of the season before sputtering out to end the regular season.

Looks like this game is going like their regular season - good start and sputtering out at the end.

The big story in this game is the qb change late in the 3rd for PT. This week could be real interesting in a lot of ways. 

5 interceptions by PT and quite a few dropped passes kept this game from being really lopsided. They stayed on Taylor County's side of the field literally the whole game. I've never really seen a game quite like this. 

No excuses for them though, these are early season issues that should be long gone. PT has a lot of things to sort out.

PT 28 Taylor County 0

Final

The DC for Taylor County is William Harris. He won the Broyles Award, not too long ago, as the top assistant football coach in the state of Kentucky. He is an excellent young football coach. He is also a high character man, wonderful friend, husband & father. 

If a football program has an opening for a head coach after the 2025 season, I would go after William with both barrels. He is young and has a very bright future ahead of him.  

I am admittedly biased, but I think he is the next Chuck Smith. Comparable to Coach Smith in regards to energy, creativity, commitment to fundamentals, attention to detail, never say day attitude, intelligence, ability to communicate with young people, motivated to bring out the best in those around him, I could go on. 

This picture, William is in the middle. To his right is our DC, Chris Crawley-Goodman. I can say the same things about Chris, but sure hope I can keep him at ACHS. William was my shadow at Mercer County for 7 years. Then, Chris was William's shadow when they were both at Mercer.  These guys have a desire to be elite and a motor to get there. 

It has been my experience, young coaches that truly want to be great, are not denied. I would also add, they are a dying breed. Many of the young coaches these days, and old as well, can get bored with the tedious parts of the grind that are demanded to be your very best. These guys embrace that grind and cannot get enough of it.

TC on their own 12. 2nd and 4. 

I’m not trying to be hard on PT but they have no shot at the state championship. Taylor lost to Larue 8-7 and Larue is poor to say the least. They better be on their game or FS might get them next week.

Whoa! They replaced QB Stone Crow in the 3rd quarter? Stat wise, he is one of the top QB's in the state. If they switched away from him in the third quarter, that is absolutely a big story! Details please.

He had 4 INTs, they benched him and put in the coaches son.

Good for the coach that it worked.

From Coach’s quotes in the Sun - they wanted to try some QB run game.  They just ran a bunch of zone read and QB sweeps.  The RB did a lot of blocking. 
He said that Stone Crowe will be the QB next week and I guess they will just go with Thompson if they want a change of pace.
