What about the Tennessee team Mayfield beat? Trousadale County, the defending 2A state champ and its only loss this season is to Mayfield.

 

Last time I checked Beechwood is still the defending 1A state champs for Kentucky. A class 1A team hasn't beat them for a long time. So if we are going to give a Tennessee team credit for winning last year. The same respect has to be given to Beechwood.

I got the numbers from the KHSAA, of course the Tenn. team is not included. DISCLAIMER: these numbers are not official numbers....just from some fat guy in NKY!

Rule 13

With a 6 pm central start, will this make it any more appealing to Beechwood fans? How many buses of fans might the Tigers bring?

I know they attempted to started a "Spirit Bus." I dont know of the sucess of this.

I agree, but the Trousdale win was the biggest win for Mayfield this year by far, it was a very high scoring affair between the two teams. I think there was a total of over 900 yards for both teams by the end of the game!! It was basically Trousdale's rushing attack vs. Mayfield's passing attack, it was one of the best high school football games I have ever seen. Mayfield was down 21 points in the first half and rallied in the second quarter and then on into the second half to finally take the lead and pull it out in the end.

 

I don't really know who to compare Trousdale to on Beechwood's schedule, they aren't as good as Highlands I wouldn't imagine but are probably better than Newport Central Cath. I know they have only lost one game this season and that was to Mayfield, they are getting ready to play McKenzie, TN for the TN state semis in 2A. So Mayfield has 2 teams still playing in tournaments, Trousdale and Paducah Tilghman and Beechwood has Highlands still playing in the tournament.

Crunch-time take everything he says with a grain of salt! He likes to give his opinion. But don't give yours or he will go off on you. He'll come back at me now with something crazy. This will be a heck of a game. Both of these teams are very well coached. And will have the teams ready to play. If Beecwood stays home and comes down a few hours before the game friday. Some will say you should have came down thursday. And if you stay all night the day before the same people will find something wrong with that to. To be in the game at the end of the 3rd qtr with Highlands says great things for BW. And to have someone say that that was about as bad as HHS could play could be because of the team they were playing. Good teams can make good teams look bad sometimes. Even Mayfield has had some big ups and downs the last three or four weeks. Losing one game at the end of the year. Some will come back and say it was because of the rain. But both teams had to play in it. Now I will say Mayfield is I'm sure a better team. But not that night. Maybe they just didn't match up well. Who knows. Turnovers is a big part of the game. And Mayfield has turned it over to much lately. They let CC stay in the game because of it. Mayfield is a great team I hear if they don't turn it over. But so are alot of other teams. So to say because of a few games vs the likes of HHS you get beat. You are a 21 point underdog. Highlands very well could be the best team in the state. Nomatter what class. The same can be said about Mayfield. Getting beat by Christ. Co and letting CC scare them. Mayfield has some really good guys on here. And they will tell you constructive things. And they won't argue with you. Ony discuss, which is good.

 

Now Ram, be nice...lol...I am an opinionated person, ain't I?

I agree that Trousdale was a great win for Mayfield. I also think some respect, credit or what ever buzz word you want to use should be given for the fact that they were the Defending Tennessee 2A champs last year. On the flip side, maybe not necessary you but some posters don't want to give Beechwood credit for being 2 time defending state champs. I personal do think that being defending state champions gives a team confidence and a little swagger as well as putting a little fear into the competition.

Oh yes, I am pretty nervous about Beechwood coming down to Mayfield no doubt. If Mayfield can pull out the win we can say that we beat last years defending state champs, which is a great thing to say. I fully respect the program that Beechwood has, you got to with as many wins that they have and the program they have built up. I only say its possible for Mayfield to win by 2 or 3 TD's because of the quick-scoring ability of Mayfield but I know that Beechwood can score very quickly as well but I think that Mayfield can score in a couple more ways than Beechwood is all. I think that ultimately this game is going to come down to who plays mistake-free ball.

 

On another note, I spoke with somebody today who is watching Mayfield practice and he said they looked ready and determined, so we will see how this story plays out on Friday night, hope everybody has a safe trip down and happy Thanksgiving!!

I can assure you that any of us knowledgable Mayfield fans are well aware of Beechwood being the 2-time defending champion and that no Class A team has beaten them the past couple of years...so we have all the respect in the world for Beechwood...but in all fairness this is not the same Beechwood team that has won the back-to-back titles...with only 8 seniors as another poster stated then most of the players on those teams are gone. Beechwood has a great team no doubt about it and if you guys come down here and beat us Friday night I for one will be rooting for you to win your third straight title.

 

Should be a great game...Happy Thanksgiving to all the Beechies and their fans...good luck on your trip down...see you Friday!!!

Has a NKY team ever ventured this far down into WKY ? I cant ever remember it nor can I remember a far WKY team making it up into the NKY area.

It seems like Hopkinsville and Highlands played a year or 2 ago, but, don't remember if it was in Hopkinsville or Highlands and Owensboro played Boone Co last year I believe...Those 2 places aren't as far west as Mayfield is, but, still a pretty good haul.

The school where Duffer Duffy coaches came up and played Ryle in the semis a few years back.

Now Ram, be nice...lol...I am an opinionated person, ain't I?

 

Ha ha you sound like me a lot LOL

Henderson Co... You are correct... Mayfield is about another 2 hours west of there...

I heard Beechwood just had a horrible practice. All they could talk about was eating turkey and playing call to duty. They haven't even looked at the scouting reports and just aren't ready for this game.
