Let's match up some of the 1A vs. 3A results from this weekend.

 

1A #7 Campbellsville lost to 3A #12 Breathitt Co. 16-6..........not good for 1A

1A #9 Fairview squeaks by 3A #25 West Carter 16-13 in OT.....even though it's a win, still not to good for 1A's case

1A #10 Lynn Camp looses big to 3A #9 Somerset 42-6.........Not good for 1A

 

1A #5 Louisville Holy Cross beats 3A #13 Henry Co 54-24.......the one good result for 1A

 

So like I said before......comparing the 2 classes now, I believe 3A is better

Week #1 evidence for my argument.

In this member's humble opinion:

 

#s 1-4 in Class 1A can play with and probably get the better of #s 1-4 in Class 3A.

#s 5-10 in Class 1A sould have a tougher time with #s 5-10 in Class 3A.

The bottom half of Class 1A is probably significantly weaker than the bottom half of Class 3A.

Overall, Class 3A is stronger; but it's not overwhelming by a long stretch.

 

#s 1-10 in Class 2A is stronger than #s 1-10 in Class 3A.

And the statement in bold sums up why many say 3A is the worst class. Anytime you can compare 1A and 3A as almost equal, does not speak well for 3A.

I could be wrong, but I dont't think there is one private school in the 3A class. I guess that makes it the only true public school class in the state.
