  1. If a team is 0-10 then that team should not be allowed to play in the playoffs. I will say this though, if a district does have an 0-10 its hard for me to think they deserved to get in. I know Simon Kenton was not 0-10, but they were a #4 seed and went to the State Finals in 6A so the four team factor works. It is such a tough call to make. There are several 0-10 teams that made, but the arguement I'll make for them is that those kids got another week of practice to if nothing else keep working fundamentals of football.

  2. Of course the football season is too long. That is why they should take the top 2 teams instead of 4. I know that Simon Kenton is a number 4 seed and is in the state championship game (and I hope they win). But short of cutting out the bye week (which I am in favor of) and starting a week earlier, that is the only solution that makes sense to me. The teams that are in the state championship games are almost playing a pro football like number of games. Plus the players that play basketball are getting such a late start.

     

     

     

    Well I understnad your arguement but I think its pretty weak. What about Basketball players who have to start late for baseball season. Majority of the time anyway its not how you start, but how you finish.

  3. vs Butler 48-13W (6A Butler struggled this season winning only two games late in the season but against tough competition)

     

    vs DeSales 0-14L (DeSales, one of the "other" Louisville catholic schools, much smaller than St X or Trinity and on the other end of town, they do benifit from the same middle school league as X and T, they had a strong season going 10-3 but mostly played lesser competition.)

     

    vs Bulliet Central 27-30L (Bullit Central is a 6A school that posted a respectable 8-3 record but lost most of there big games with the exception of this one.)

     

    vs Henderson 14-50L (This was the worst loss for Bulliet East this season. Not to say a 7-4 Henderson wasn't a strong team from the 6A class, but a 5TD loss is a blight on anyones record. It is worth mentioning that this was a switched game due to the windstorm in Louisville causing Jefferson Co teams to not play, Mount Washington although in Bullitt Co is basically a Louisville suburb and I can't say whether the lasting effects of the storm did or did not have an effect on the team, but I could see where it may caused distraction)

     

    vs Marion Co 13-10W (Marion Co had a strong record at 9-3 with two of those losses coming from Bullitt East. Nothing about Marion Co's competition blows me away, but 9 wins is 9 wins)

     

    vs Fairdale 35-40L (Fairdale is a 4A Louisville school who usually has a handful of athletes. 6-5 Fairdale was looking respectable but took a late season nose dive losing the last three games of the season)

     

    vs North Bullitt 17-14W (North Bullitt went 8-5 this season dropping two games to the Chargers. North Bullitt's only win of significance was Layfayette in the begining of the season)

     

    vs Larue Co 22-19W (District opponet was Larue 4-7 and not a real strong opponet.)

     

    vs Manual 23-24L in double overrtime (I would consider this a good loss for Bullitt East. 10-3 Manual is at the top of "the rest of 6A" outside of St X and Trinity, and was the best team Bullitt East faced this season and from the look at the schedule appears to be the turning point for the Chargers season)

     

    vs Nelson Co 51-14W (A big win against the last of five 6A opponets that Bullitt East played. Nelson Co went 4-7 with most there wins vs lesser opponets, but short of St X Bullitt East gave them there worst loss)

     

    Playoff vs Atherton 63-6W (2-10 Atherton is in perpetual rebuilidng phase, the amount of the wins is really meaningless as Atherton simply isn't competitive)

     

    Playoff vs Marion Co 35-7W (rematch see above)

     

    Playoff vs North Bullitt 26-7W (rematch see above)

     

    Playoff vs Calloway Co 52-49W (11-3 Calloway Co averaged 37 points a game on offense and Bullitt East did little to stop them, but they did out score them with there third game of over 50 points in the season. I don't personally know all that much about football that far west and can't speak as to there schedule but they won a lot of games.

     

    Some points I would make.

    Bullitt East played up five times during the regular season, further more they have traditionally played many of the Louisville schools, if not during the season during the preseason in scrimmages. I don't think they come in in awe of Bell Co.

     

    Bullitt East's opponets were a combined 98-70, Bell's opponets were nearly (I have an incomplete tenn team record of 2-7) 74-79. Bell played up twice and played down on three occasions.

     

    The tone of the posters seems to point to a Bell Co blow out, while I wouldn't be suprised if they won, I think Bullitt East is far better seasoned than they realize.

     

    No offense Ram, but you haven't seen anything as physical as Bell Co. These guys play smash mouth from the word go. The only two teams in the state that can beat Bell, is Trinity and St. X. and they don't have to play those guys. BELL by a LARGE MARGIN

  4. You know the thing that kills me the most about this score is that the players never BELIEVE they can win. Since 1988 Southern has never beaten Central in football, only once in basketball. Year in year out Southern's baseball team is usually better, but these kids are not at all inferior to Central. These coaches bust their butts to get the kids ready, but the kids do not believe or want it bad enough and I am tired of it.

  5. Central should win this game. Running behind the Warford kid helps so much, and compliments those fast backs a great deal. Look for Tyler Mays to have a big impact in this game. For me he is their overall best player, the kid can do it all, and is tough to throw on. I hope Central wins, but under Coach Turner this is the time of the year where his teams begin to struggle. He has so much talent on the field and should be able to challenge and win a region title.
