Final in OT.

Hopkinsville wins a thriller at Mercer County. My source is upset at Marty Jagger's decision to go for 2 when Mercer scored to make it 41-34. Had Mercer kicked and gone up 8, it would have at least made it a little more difficult for Hopkinsville to have to score a TD and get the 2 pt conversion to tie instead of them just having to score and kick the xp to tie. All in all it seems to have been a great game with Mercer leading throughout the entire game until the TD pass by Hopkinsville in OT after the Mercer field goal. Tough loss for the Titans. I look forward to seeing them next Friday.

Thanks for the edit and the move. I didn't know what to do next.:jump:

Me too. Working, good luck Rebels!

I think that this will be a great test for the Rebels.

I wasn't at the game but according to the radio,the holder didn't get the snap down. Tell your souce they don't know what they are talking about.Mercer scores on a 4th and 1 from about the 50 with a little bit less than 2 minutes to go in the game to go up.If they don't score there ,and get the 1st down they could have ran out the clock because Hoptown only had 1 timeout left.

Big win for Hoptown. The Yeast kid was the best back Hoptown seen all year and that includes Banks from Christian County. Stronger runner than expected. Great game from Hoptowns QB Marshall Stewart 18 out of 22 for 262 yards 3TD and two running. Hoptown receivers riped the Titans all night. Both Derick Dillard(10) and Victor Moulden(3)were making big plays all night. Victor Moulden proved he is one if not the best receiver in the state. Going in to the game he was leading receiver in 5A, had around 150 yards last night. Marshall Stewart was 3rd in 5A in passing yards per game. Good luck to Mercer County the rest of the season you guys have a fine ball club.

I think that this will be a great test for the Rebels.

 

I hope I'm wrong, but I think just the opposite. Boyle Co. will be a test for the Titans. The Rebels, IMO, are on their way to another state title and Coach French has them hitting on all cylinders. The Titans have a good team, but they will have to play GREAT to beat Boyle. "Good" won't cut it Friday night.

 

Good luck to both teams!:thumb:

Yep! This was one of those times when you score with 'too much time left'. It was awesome to see Yeast break away for the TD run, but then we looked at the clock and realized Hoptown had too much time to work their offense.

 

It was a great game, I really thought Mercer was 1 or 2 TDs better, but obviously I was wrong. Not the first time!:lol:
