I would say Russell will lose this one at the line. Line play as not been that great latey. Breathitt 42 Russell 18

 

The Russell line play has been great. I'm not sure what Russell games you have been watching. Just wondering. How many games have you watched?

Look, Dont get me wrong I hope Russell wins. But if you think LCA does not hit hard your mistaken. I seen Russell and LCA. Let me tell you this LCA team hits harder. I asked Racelands backs and thats what they said. And to I know you cant look at past games. You can only use them to conpair a little. Which really means nothing.

 

I think you have been into old ramblers Orange drink.

No one wants to give this group of kids the respect they have earned,and they continue to keep making believers week after week.Keep marching on guys......WE BELIEVE

I haven't seen Russell play in a couple of years but obviously they have a very good team this year and it should be a good game. But.... if they had trouble with Mason's running and passing game, it's a very good sign for Breathitt. The Bobcats have really improved through out the year and as far as runners go, Channing Fugate keeps getting better and better. This kid is good and only a sophomore. You'll see what I mean Friday night. As for the passing game, Colby Fugate is as accurate as anyone I have seen in a while, and he can scamper also. They are surrounded by a very solid cast and should come out with a W. 34-21.

I would say a team who has won 36 out of their last 37 home games will have little chance of winning Friday. Breathitt can make their plans for a trip to Belfry for the state semis.:sssh:

That is pretty much what 36 out of the last 37 thought as well..........AND WE KNOW HOW THOSE TURNED OUT......WELCOME TO THE HANK ! :devil:

As we all talk about each of these teams they have both Russell and Breathitt have had good seasons, Breathitt may have played a little bit easier schedule,but to tell the truth some of the teams they use to play wouldn't put them on their schedule,so it no fault of coach Mike Holcomb,they knew we was going to have a good team,and i must say we will be good for next few years,could have as good back field as we have had in a while,with Channing Fugate ,and Chris Spicer as running backs and Jade Haddix as QB,should be exciting to watch, Quick and should see some options run next year out of lots differant sets, But on to this years season we hope that both teams (Russell and Breathitt Co.)play well and have fun and can play with good sportsmanship,and may the best team win i really do believe Breathitt Co.should win this game as i do think we have the better of the two teams but its not played on here, but on field, so we will have to see which one wins friday night under the cool evening lights at Russell so good luck Breathitt Co.Bobcats, see you there.

Russell 28-24.

You are forgetting something here,how many State Championships do Russell have Breathitt Co.has 3 and still in hunt for their 4th,but as i have said these are two good 3-A teams and one will win and thats facts.

Russell has 2 and is still in the hunt for their 3rd. Russell has one as a 3A team and one as a 2A team. Almost had their third last year.

Not many teams can claim to have won the last 4 games with Russell - maybe no one else.

Good job on providing the stats. Interested to know WHERE these games were played to see if home field played a role.

You must also remember Breathitt Co.is still a New kid on block when it comes to football as to some schools,we didnt start till early 70's (73-74)and to have 3 State Championships,you to have to say Thats "GREAT",and What about their Coach Mike Holcomb should win" Coach of Year "for sure, i know i would place my vote for him in Class 3-A.
