Harlan/Hazard Predictions

Game should decide district champ and home field for first two rounds of playoffs. Harlan has improved from last year and has closed the gap between themselves and Hazard. Tough road trip to Harlan, Bulldogs coming in beat down by their last two games. Games they could have won but they were unable to finish scoring drives once they got into scoring position against Corbin and Breathitt. Give the defense of the Redhounds and Bobcats credit. Hazard has turned the ball over 7 times inside their opponents 30, three of those inside the 5 yard line, in the last two weeks. If the young skill players of Hazard can convert their field position into scores they should be able to pull this one out. If they let a well coach, much improved Harlan team hang around they could be facing their first district loss and probably will have to travel back to Harlan in the second week of the playoffs.
