Play Maker3

I heard that Owen was without some key players for this one. Players that would have made an impact in the running game I think is what they said. Any truth to this? I'm not saying it would have made the score any closer but it may have provided some stability in the running game if they really were playing without them.

This one will be a close one. From what I heard Owen was not at full strength against Henry and had a few key players that didn't even play. If those players are back and Owen is healthy I give them the edge. If not Trimble will take this one and spoil Owens home opener.

Like he said....they had an answer...but the answer won't even be effective unless you tackle!!!!!

Exactly! If you can't tackle you can't win.

This one has the potential of being a GREAT and exciting game.

It all depends on which Owen Co team shows up. If it's the same team that played Grant till the last minute then I'm saying Owen. If it's the Owen that played Walton then I'll take Gallatin.

Grant made one more play than Owen did, and that one play put Grant at the 1 yrd line for the go ahead score. GREAT game! An awesome and exciting game to watch to kick off the year.

Oh my Gosh! Every staff must have one....every where I look there is a Campbellsville guy on staff! Most importantly they are quality coaches. Especially those who played under Coach Finley.

From what I can see, everyone here mentioned played at least 1 year under the great Ron Finley. Needless to say, I think he has rubbed off and influenced many!:thumb:

Matt Brown and William Mulder are coaches at Dunbar.

I believe Paul Mandeville is also a coach at PLD

From what I was told, Owen held its first spring game in a number of years. Sounds like Coach Fowler and his staff are doing something right.

If Owen's backcourt can take care of the ball and their big men can stay out of foul trouble I would say they are the favorite but they have been very up and down thus far this year. I wouldn't count Henry or Carroll from contending as well. With the type of year that Yager (I hope I spelt that correct) and company are having accompanied with home court advantage, it wouldn't suprise me if Carroll walks away with the title. And Henry Co. has some kids that can play (the lefty especially....I believe he is #23). I would say its these three teams that are the biggest contenders.....especially if the kid from GC doesn't play.

Saw this game first hand, and you have got to give Owen Co. some credit. A team that was suppost to be so bad that NCC's 2nd and 3rd strings could put up something like 70 ( I think the pregame thread read something like that) and that NCC's starters were suppost to be sitting out against in the 2nd half came out and showed they could compete since their defense only gave up 3 points in the first half. Take away one heck of a pick by NCC on a screen and a blocked punt for a TD and this game is only 3-0 at halft time. Congrats to NCC on a great win and best of luck to you as you pursue another state championship, but you have to give some credit where credit is due. The score does not indicate the type of game Owen Co played.

Unless there is a miracle, I can't say that I see Owen winning this game. But hey who knows, the state is in need of a good upset and something to talk about. Not saying this would be the game that it happens but I sure would like for it to.

What is going on with Owen County's program? It was just a few seasons ago that they were a tough team to beat. Now... not so much.

 

Here's hoping they get back on the winning side of the ledger soon.

Ask CAL if Owen was a tough team to beat. From what I can tell and what I saw on friday night CAL had fits with this Owen Co. team unlike last years

Henry adds another W. 28-6

Ludlow 21-17

Eastern will prove that Western being a 1-A school means nothing. EKU- 28, WKU-14

I caught this game last year. It was a pretty good game and close util about half way through the third quarter when it seemed as if Owen ran out of juice. After that it was over and Gallatin won easily. I'm sure this years game will be great as well. Hopefully Owen will be in better shape and will keep it interesting. Judging by the poll and most of the posts I would say Gallatin is favored even though they are 0-1. That being said I will go with the underdog and say Owen winning in a tight one by 3. Best of luck to both teams.

Trimble Co. is a tough and talented team but Henry has too much depth and even more talent. Henry takes this one by 2 TD's.

Henry takes this one will little trouble. They will be 1-0 heading into week #2.

GAME DAY!!!! Best of luck to both teams!

Who do you think will win PM3?

I say Owen wins this one with ease if they keep turnovers down. If not it will be tough but Owen will still pull it out.

Lincoln by at least 2 TDs

Can Bishop Brossart pick up their first varsity win or will Owen Co. start the season with a win? Should be a very interesting game.

Berea..........24-6

My brother played for Union a few years ago, I remember the muddy mess of the old field. The new one looks good.

I remember that muddy mess of a field they used to have too. The new field looks amazing and a great turf to play on. Sounds like Union is on track to building a strong successful long term program.
