How do you see this one turning out? What are each teams strengths and keys to victory?

I would say Mason by 30. West is well coached and I have no doubt that they will play hard but jmo Mason has too many athletes.

Mason by as many as they want.

MASON 42

WEST 22

 

West is a little better than people may think. Don't be deceived by their record. I was told their offense played horrible against Lewis (10 fumbles) and still put up 46 points and absolutely destroyed Lewis' offense.

West Carter has some size and some good skill players. Mason will have too many athletes on the field.

 

Mason 48

West Carter 14

If Mason plays like they did against East (swarming defense, taking advantage of a short field, vastly improved LB play, dominating the line on both sides of the ball) they will do well. If it comes down to it, Cox can carry the Royals with his arm or with his legs; but he didn't have to last Friday.

 

I'll say Mason 34-10.

 

PS - any news on Thompson? The shoulder didn't look serious but he did sit out for over half the game vs. East.

McPapa, On paper the Royals should win this one BUT in the past we have seen letdowns by the Royals because of overconfidence. Do you think that the win last Friday over East Carter will see the Royals to continue to strive for excellence and get better OR be satisfied that they played excellent last week and let West Carter sneak up on them and beat them. I am excited to see how the Royals react. Last week we got the halftime bug that the Royals catch shored up now we will see if this team is for real or just pretenders.:eek:

Mason Co 45

West Carter 0

 

Royals just to much.. :ylsuper: :banana:

Mason,50-14.

Mason wins big and stays unbeaten in district play and is waiting for the big game coming up with Russell Oct 19.

 

 

 

West Carter-7

Mason-54

Mason blow out... 42-0.

Mason Co. - no contest.

It will be interesting after this week to get the Carter County people's impressions of Mason County and Russell ...

From a Russell person's perspective Mason County scares me to death. I said before the season started that they were a top 5 team in AAA. I think they are two very even teams. Should be a fun one at Maysville Oct 19th.

I know that a lot of folks here have had 10/19 circled on their calendars when the schedules first came out; and so far the regular season hasn't done anything to change anyone's mind. Let's hope both sides stay healthy.:thumb:
