Warren East in a close one.

Belfry names the score. Subs play a ton!!

Boyd wins but no team in this district has a chance of winning after round 2.

Boone by 14.

4 bad teams in this district beat up on each other in the first 2 rounds of playoffs and make a few extra bucks. Season ends for this district after round 2. :sleep::sleep:

West has no chance. LexCath by a lot.

Hazard easily wins this first round tune-up.

Simon Kenton has made some strides this year but I think Ryle is just a little better. Ryle in a close one.

2 average teams AT BEST...The winner's season will end in the 2nd round no matter who wins this week.

Was that a KHSAA trophy or one that the school presented the team? As I said, my understanding was that the KHSAA was not acknowledging a regular season champ or runner-up. The district champ & runner-up are to be decided after the second round of the playoffs and the trophies will be presented at that time.

What trophy? My understanding is there is no regular season district champ. The regular season determines seeding but there is no trophy awarded until after the 2nd round of the playoffs.

Ok, thanks.

I heard the same thing about he quit or something at halftime. WOW!!! Didn't they score last in regulation & the kick failed? If indeed he did quit on his teammates and they could have won the game in regulation had he been there to kick it would be a tough pill for me to swallow as a player. It also potentially changes the overtime strategy because you have confidence in your kicker to send it to another OT at home.

My buddy from Russell has a friend who has a son that plays for Raceland. The dad told him that the team was really devastated by the loss to Russell and he would not be surprised if they lost to West due to the morale after the loss. Sounds like my statement in the prediction thread was truer than many wanted to let on. :eek::sssh:

A few weeks ago I was really confident in Raceland's chances of advancing against Fairview and matching up against LCA again. Now I am not so sure. True playoff contenders do not continue to shoot themselves in the foot with the types of penalties they are. You will not last long in the postseason like that.

Impressive comeback although I am surprised it got to that point.

I say yes after this performance.

Dominating performance. Can anyone touch them in 3A??

A little surprised at this margin!!

Final

After this whipping, is there anyone in 3A who can beat Belfry?? I'm beginning to believe there isn't.

8 mins to go in the first half and Johnson Central has no first downs. Grimm has about 4 yards. Not looking good for 3A if they can shut down JC's offense. Said the front 5 of Belfry is just whipping JC's. :eek:

Anyone from Raceland who says that the Russell game was not EMOTIONALLY the biggest game of their season is lying. If they were told before the season that they could only win one game this year and they had their pick it would have been Russell and there is NO denying that. There are a lot of reasons for that and most are compliments to where Russell's football program is. Beating Russell this season would have given their program more credibility than any other win on their schedule could have. Some others' reasons :ylsuper::thumb::cry: are not complimentary at all no matter how much they try to say otherwise. Now, at the same time, Russell did want to win this game as well. I know several people who circled this game on their calendars as soon as it was scheduled but I don't get the sense that it meant nearly as much to them from what I read and hear. I actually was able to attend the game with my buddy from Russell and after the game Russell seemed pretty subdued and business-like as if they expected to win. I was told the firetrucks would have been out in full force had Raceland won. I don't think there was a parade in Russell after that game. Let me say this though. The atmosphere at that game was unbelievable. It was like a playoff game and party all mixed up into one. You don't really see that much around Lexington. I really enjoyed that.

It would be crazy to move to WKU...It WILL hurt attendance. It actually makes sense to have ALL state championships played as close to the central part of the state as possible. Obviously the middle of the state benefits but that is not what it is about. It is about making the travel as light as possible on those who live on the outer reaches of the state. Louisville was obviously great. 3 hours more or less from the east & about the same from the west. Makes no sense to move to an outer border no matter which end of the state it would be.
