I just hope Boyle County can get a good in state team to play.

I don't think there is any spin here that a media organization can get over on.  Danville stinks and Boyle County is a world beater, the end. 

Can’t argue that! 

Congratulations to both teams, especially Lyon County. They proved to be the best team all season led by the best player in the state. 

Congratulations to all the State Champions!

Enjoy the pleasure this year……..it won’t happen in 2024!

Cooper has a taste and they’ll be back winning 5A.

Beechwood will be in the hunt in 2A and they know what they need to do to make it happen!

Lloyd in 3A knocking on the door.

Ryle wanting to make a statement in 6A.

Cov Cath will make noise in 4A.

Ludlow and New Cath making noise in 1A.

They made a lot of noise this year! 

Go Purples!!!

We knew Boyle County would put up some points but the defense, wow! The Rebels were in the quarterbacks face all night. They limited Covington Catholic. Truly impressive performance.

CAL will win by way of running clock! Good luck to Bell County!

I’m sorry man my previous post was probably a little harsh it just seems like that most of the posts on here act like BC can’t lose and they probably won’t but I do believe CC is a quality team very capable of winning.

Covington Catholic is very capable of winning. There is a reason they are where they are. There is a reason they are undefeated. Let’s make no mistake about it. These teams belong here. Boyle County will have their hands full. Nothing will be given to them. This state championship will be earned whether it be BC or CC. Respectfully, I think Boyle County is the better team. Good luck to both teams!

Enjoyed re reading this thread.   

Absolutely! 🤣

I really expect this game to be close. These are two of the better teams in the state. Both are undefeated. Both are battle tested. Both are deserving. I’ll take Boyle County by 10+.

I think you are spot on with this. I wouldn't even be surprised to see a running clock. I don't think Franklin is going to have the athletes to keep up with all of Boyle's weapons. Plus, the Rebel Defense doesn't get nearly the credit they deserve.

Exactly. I too, would not be surprised to see a running clock. And I’m glad you mentioned the defense. They have progressed throughout the season. I thought the secondary was questionable at one point but they seem to have fixed the issues. 

The more I’ve sat and thought about this game, I can’t imagine Boyle County losing. In fact, I’m taking Boyle County by 21+.

Bump.

Go Rebels!

Go Knights!

But I truly believe CAL wins this one. 

Boyle County is going to be locked and loaded. This is a state semi final matchup with an undefeated opponent. The Corbin game was quite possibly the biggest game of the year but for the Rebels now, there is no bigger game than the one on Friday because it’s win or go home. Coach Haddix will have these guys ready!

Whole lot of if’s in this thread. If Corbin plays Boyle on November 17th they lose 21-14. And that’s fact! 

Exactly! 

Congratulations to both teams. I was at the game and thought both crowds were very classy. It was a packed house! 
 

Corbin definitely passed the eye test and had opportunities to win the game. Then again, I think Boyle County had opportunities to extend the lead.

The going for it on 4th and 2 at the goal I didn’t like. The Rebels had an a chip shot to go up two scores late in the 4th quarter. It nearly came back to bite them but it didn’t. 
 

Excellent overall game from a fan perspective!

This thread could be quoted in a previous thread about worst excuses after a loss. Why not just be proud of the game your team played against another great team. Don’t diminish your own teams loss by making excuses. Both teams played phenomenal and at the end of the day one of them had to lose. It was a great game!

If they didn’t have Tavy they lose the game. 🤦🏻‍♂️ 

Huge congratulations to Hart County! This is huge. 

It’ll be hard for me to go against the Rebels. Corbin is an excellent team that has just enough fire power on offense and enough grit on defense to make this a game. 
 

I think the Rebels have just a little more team speed and that’ll likely be the difference. How big of a difference it to be determined. 

Give me the Raiders by one score! 

I’ll be pulling for the Rockets but I can’t see them beating Lexington Catholic. I look for the Knights to advance to the state semis! 

Running clock for sure.
 

Congratulations to McCracken County on making it this far!
