WILDMAN Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Corbin scored in 3 plays, got an int back to the 6, scored once more, then recovered the ensuing kickoff in the endzone to make it 20-0 in first 3 minutes. From there it was a few starters mixed with JV players. By the end of the first quarter it was 41-0. Freshmen with a few sophomores played the final 3 quarters and outscored the Patriots 30-6. Knott County's score came after Corbin turned it over on downs at about the 15. KCC probably only had 50 yards total offense if that. One has to feel for the kids of Knott Central. They played hard but were just too overmatched. Corbin did not run the score up or intend to. The second half scores were a pick 6 and runs up the middle by 140 pound freshmen backs. Hats off to both teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hasbeen Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Do you know who had the interception, Hank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hasbeen Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 I do feel for the Knott kids. I just can't understand how that program can be mired in worse than mediocrity for so long. The Knott Co. Judge Executive appears in an ad on WYMT promoting the county's sports programs and their indoor sports complex. I know they usually have a top notch Basketball team. How can an area and a school district put so much money and effort into other sports and allow their football team to sink to the level that they have?

WILDMAN Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 I'm pretty positive Matthew Taylor had the first interception that was returned to the 6. As for the pick 6, I do not know the kid's name but they wore #8. Let me see if I can find a roster and I'll post it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILDMAN Posted October 8, 2010 Author Share Posted October 8, 2010 ^According to the KHSAA #8 Taylor Waddle was the one to return the interception for a Td. He played QB also the rest of the game and had a td or two rushing if I am not mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hasbeen Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Thanks. I know a couple of kids on the team and was wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4chs Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Do you know who had the interception, Hank? Taylor Waddle, who is a freshman, had a pick 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have all the indoor fields, hire Vince Lombardi and out scheme everyone. If you athletes stink or are slow you won't win. Yes you can improve, but slow kids lose games. Draw any coverage you want, if your kid can't run with that kid, it's a touchdown. Xs and Os matter, but players are needed to run them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is not an area in the state that cannot, with the right feeder system, coaching, and public backing, field a competitive football team. Many others do it with far less.

Many others do it with far less. Very true. In fact, north of Knott County is Breathitt County (good program). West of Knott County is Hazard and Perry County Central (good programs). South of Knott County is Letcher County Central (good program). And east of Knott County is Prestonsburg (good program). So not only are there good programs in all areas of the state, there are really good programs within 30 miles of Knott County in every direction.

TheMountain Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 My point was, knott is clearly in a down cycle. They were clearly overmatched in this game. 70 thus year and 80 last against Corbin (who is good but not great this year) seems to indicate they don't have the players right now.
