In 1985 Crittenden County only got up to #5, yet they won the State Championship.

The 1993 Beechwood team wasn't even ranked. It was my junior year. At the start of the playoffs we weren't even ranked in the top 10. We were one of the teams that were receiving votes. Everyone knows what happened at the end of the playoffs.

I"ll put it this way, Trousdale Co would likely beat every every 1a team in Ky by a bunch, with maybe an exception to LCA and if they didn't win against them it would be a dogfight..This past week they beat an undfeated and traditional power Friendship Christian team 23-7 that had been averaging 47 pts a game and only given up 15 all year...Graves Co is not a great 6a team, but, again, they would be no worse than a 5th or 6th best team in 1a... Pad Tilghman, as bad as there record is, I wonder how many 1a teams would beat the teams that beat them(Hopkinsville, Ft Campbell, Mayfield, Graves Co)Again, they would be a solid Top 8 team in 1a...Calloway Co is a yr removed from a Final 4 4A run and yes, they're down this year, but, would still be a Top 10 1a team, without a doubt...Yes, Marshall Co is winless, but, still a 6a team with alot of #s...They've been a very solid program just having a couple of bad yrs with a coaching change and some turmoil going on...Also, they played the #3 ranked 2a team out of Tn (Milan)in a scrimmage game that I would bet the farm would be ranked #1 in Ky 1A this year and possibly even 2a and 3a, they're that good...My point is, you are basing everything on the record that Mayfields opponents have and automatically assume they've played a weak schedule...And this year, the teams that are usually very tough teams are down like Tilghman, Marshall and Calloway, but, yr in and yr out, I'd put Mayfields schedule against any of the 1a teams and would fare pretty well...They also play Crittenden and Caldwell Co to end the season which will definately prepare them even more before the playoffs get here, so, don't worry about how prepared they'll be for a tough game, they've been there and done that and know what its all about when playoff time rolls around...

 

 

Not if they havent gotten in any better shape than they were in week 1. Had they been conditioned properly they would have beat Mayfield as well. They jumped out to a 21-0 lead and then got tired which resulted in a lot of holding calls because Mayfield was in much better shape. Not knocking Mayfield at all but Trousdale's coaches for not having that team in shape.

Was that the infamous Murray High game?

No that was in 94 my senior year. In 93 we beat Bardstown for the second straight year. The 94 game was a great game. We played a very bad game and still won. But Murray came ready to play so I give them credit for that.

LCA is no doubt the best team in 1A, but I think Hazard deserves a little more credit than what they are getting.

I'm surprised that Holy Cross isn't getting more support after taking Beechwood to the wire. So either HOly Cross is underated or Beechwood is overated, which is it?

That was Covington Holy Cross that Beechwood beat in OT and they are a 2A program. Louisville Holy Cross is the 1A program and they just got beat by Covington Holy Cross 26-10 on Saturday.

I know a few people have mentioned it, but Bellevue IMO definitely should be considered. They are one of the best 8 1A teams this year in the state IMO. Coach Eckstein has himself a really good team, has them playing really well right now.

The holding calls were prevelent in the 1st half, as well, just most not being called..They were a little tired in the 2nd half and the holds became more obvious, but, it was also 95 degrees that night and both teams were pretty gassed in the 4th qtr...Plus, Mayfield scored 48 pts in 3 qtrs after being shutout in the 1st qtr...Not sure the holding calls on offense had alot to do with those 48 pts the Cardinals put on the board...There execution from the 2nd qtr on was near perfection and I don't think too many teams anywhere would have been able to stop them once they got rolling...I do think TC got up 21-0 early and made it look so easy that they thought it was gonna be a blowout, letup a little and then when Mayfield came firing back, TC couldn't turn the emotion back on and as Mayfield was building momentum, they kept pouring it on...Regardless, TC was a very, very good team and it wouldn't surprise me if they would beat Mayfield if they played again, but, they didn't when it counted and I'm not sure LCA, Beechwood or anyone else in 1a would handle them...My point was referencing someone criticising Mayfields schedule and just pointing out it may be better than it's given credit for. That's all...

1. LCA

2. Beechwood

3. Frankfort

4. Mayfield

5. Bellevue

6. Crittenden County

 

7 and 8 are to close for me to call between Hazard, Raceland, Fairview, and maybe even Louisville Holy Cross.
