So I’m assuming everyone thinks Atherton will continue to be a good team because for years they were atrocious and if they are better for only a year or two like a lot of non traditional powers do occasionally then they might not be a upgrade.

Glasgow has rarely "punched up" to equal or better talented teams in their scheduling.  Sounds like the new coaching staff is trying to change that.  Atherton will be better than most of the non district games Glasgow has played the past several years even if they take a step back.  And its not like Glasgow has been a powerhouse in 2A/3A football the past 5 years as they've only been past the second round of the playoffs 1 time with  2 first round exits.

Nino has done a great job with Atherton. They will be much better than the nondistrict teams that Arnett and staff inherited.

I don’t know if I agree with that they have played a lot of big schools over the years but you just have to play schools that in your area and the Warren Co schools are about the only local schools that fit that criteria.

If Glasgow wants to be a major player in 3A they have no choice but to improve their schedule. 10-0 last year and still finishing 6th in rpi is unacceptable.

What's going on with Glasgow? If you go 10-0 and are 6th in the RPI it sounds like the RPI is flawed. I've seen 10-0 teams get lots of credit for beating a district team that was winless. 

Well last year they played one out of state team that I’m sure didn’t help even though that team didn’t lose another game until their regional and then they were in a 6 team district and the other 5 teams were poor to say the least. It’s easy to take shots at a school saying their schedule is to weak but you know there was a lot of other teams in 3A that played a tougher schedule and how many of them was state I can tell you none.

There’s a 2-A team in Owensboro that doesn’t play anyone, but they get the #1 RPI for the last 3 years. 
 

 

RPI did not matter for the Scotties last year.  They lost to the #20 RPI Union Co team in the second round.

Let’s go over those three years shall we? Catholic will have played all of these teams for their OOD games…

BG

Owensboro

Apollo

Greenwood

Bardstown

Meade County

Henderson County

North Hardin

Union County

(they also have Boyle this upcoming year just for the record)

Glasgow in the same three years:

LaRue Co

Allen County 

Monroe County

Franklin Simpson 

Russellville 

Clay County 

Barren County 

Somerset

The approach in scheduling is vastly different between the two schools. @TimeWillTell

There’s a distinct difference between these two, a lot of these teams are in OC’s Glasgow doesn’t not have that luxury because they have a bunch of rural schools around them that are local. I said it before and I will say it again I agree Glasgow needs to play a tougher schedule but unlike all of you guys every game doesn’t have to be 2 hours away playing teams they’ve never played before. They can play a couple tougher games and a couple games against local teams. By the way OC has the same amount of state championships as the Scotties zero so how has playing that schedule helped them.

They lost twice to Union Co those years 

They beat a 6-7 BG team

They beat Henderson twice but Henderson had losing records 5-7 and 4-7.

They beat two Greenwood teams that had losing records 

They beat Apollo who was .500

The only impressive win vs Owensboro was in 2023. Owensboro almost beat FD that year. 
The other years I’ll give, but last year they got beat badly by Owensboro and Catholic TDs were junk TDs. 
 

Just don’t see the quality wins. They beat Boyle Co this year and Boyle Co wins 4-A then I will go on record and say that was a quality win.

First, let's get the facts right.

They beat a Greenwood team that went 7-3 in the regular season for starters.

Secondly, you conveniently leaving off them beating Owensboro (at Rash) the same season they running clocked South Warren in the playoffs and wound up in the semifinals and deeming 2022 the only quality win is hysterical.

Lastly, you could insert most these teams I listed for Catholic and they would be the best team on the OOD schedule for Glasgow. I don’t think that’s very controversial either. You did a breakdown for Catholic’s teams. Do me a favor and go do the same for Glasgow. I eagerly await your thoughts.

We agree that Glasgow plays nobody. I said there’s a 2-A team in Owensboro that gets rated high on the RPI that has not played the competition that the RPI gives them. The RPI rewards them for beating average to below average  teams. Ok they did beat a 7-3 Greenwood in 2023, but they beat them in 2024 Greenwood team that was 5-6. I screwed up about the 2023 Greenwood team but I like how you slid a 6-7 BG team in there making it like they had Duece Bailey. They don’t beat a Deuce Bailey team. 
 

Again, they haven’t played teams other than Owensboro this year who won a state title the last three years. They got killed by Owensboro. Sure they beat Owensboro in 2022-2024. It’s happened before Catholic beat Owensboro several years in a row before. This year they play Boyle. Highly favored team to win 4-A and maybe our Devils in 5-A. We will have to see what happens, but I don’t see them beating either team this year. 

 

Does anyone know if Glasgow has a first scrimmage and if so who they play I know they scrimmage Larue in the second scrimmage but I haven’t seen a schedule showing a first scrimmage.
