Mustangs are on their way to the first ever win in school history. 39 to 7 McCracken Co.

14 to 7... McCracken. 2 min. 1st quarter

Tough to judge with so few 6A teams in this end of the state to watch, but they would certainly be top 10 in any other class. If the Mustangs clean up a few of their mistakes, they are likely to start rolling. It appears that the Henderson/McCracken district game later in the season could be quite entertaining.

If Mayfield gets the score before half and adds the 7 to start the 3rd qtr, this game likely doesn't come to the very end. Would have been 42 to 21 at that point. Kids for Mayfield were passing out walking off the field... fans in the stands passing out too... puking from both teams... cramping almost every play. Give it up for these kids, they gave it everything until the clock hit zero. Highlights are already up at wpsdlocal6.com/sports

It's a slobberknocker down here in West Ky. 28 to 21Cards at the half. Heat is brutal.

Don't know how much the heat will become a factor in this game, but an early season game where a 6A school matches up against 1A Mayfield worries me. I could see the score being quite close to the Tornado/Mustang game... something like 28 to 21 or 27 to 20, with Mayfield coming out ahead. With Tilghman, Mayfield, and McCracken all playing each other in the first 3 weeks, we might have a good idea of how next week's MF/PT could unfold. Alot of folks thought Mayfield could lose a game or two during the first half of the season, and this game with McCracken could certainly be one of those.

That's all you had to say. Everyone here knows your MO. With you Slick, we just wait for the other shoe to drop.

You got us slick. The jig is up everybody, might as well fess.

What an odd question from the other side of the state.

Oh yes, Hazard resting on that 2011 championship. If dusting off the history books, you realize that comes a year after Hazard became an afterthought by halftime in 2010. Just foolin with ya 30dad.

I'm still trying to wipe my memory banks of the last time these two teams played. U-G-L-Y! I could see this game going either way, and typically special teams... penalties... and turnovers play big roles in close, early season games. All things being equal, I've got the feeling special teams for Mayfield should win them field position and perhaps a field goal or two, which may be just enough to get them over the hump. 34 to 28 Mayfield.

Another great thing about Jackson was that he compensated for the mistakes of others. Some one misses a tackle on defense, JJ would be there to clean it up. A block isn't picked up on offense, JJ was strong enough to take that tackler and a few others with him down the field. Everyone on this Mayfield team will have to do their part to be as successful as in recent years. With that being said, other than the QB... DL/OL and say receivers, a scrimmage gives you the opportunity to see who can fit best at any given position. I suspect it will be a work in progress over the first one-third of the season, plugging in players to different spots until the staff finds the right combination. Biggest concerns I had from Friday for me came from the corner positions... let's just say they had great position if someone was posting up under the basket looking for an easy lay-up... in football, however, that gets you pass interference. The running game... just not the explosiveness, or really the speed Mayfield is usually accustomed to. I'm guessing the young freshman will get his fair share of playing time in the backfield. I'm not going to be too tough on the linebackers, we've been spoiled to say the least. To give up just 6 pts in the varsity portion of the scrimmage, against a run heavy Milan team, is certainly respectable. While others have their own opinion, I still see the success to Mayfield this year will be a higher pass to run ratio. Handing the ball off when your senior quarterback has the smarts and the arm to torch high school defenses, I would say throw first and ask questions later.

I am hearing the ESPN slate is set, and while there was some interest... they ultimately passed. The only way there would be an ESPN association with this game if it becomes an ESPN 3, internet game. The more likely scenario is a regional FOX connection, which is a mess in itself as part of Kentucky gets Fox Ohio and other portions receive Fox South or even Sports South.

Anything known about the PT game? I've heard it could be moved to Saturday... I've heard it could be at Murray St.... and I've also heard a regional sports network could pick up. Anyone else know or have heard these things?

Guess Mayfield will have to go back to winning championships the way they used to, you know, before Jackson. The big worry coming into this season was what kind of line play Mayfield would get, I would say they passed with flying colors. Suspect that Mayfield would rely a little more on the pass next year, but with most of the guys in the trenches returning expect Jake Guhy's numbers to look like a video game.

“If they run 50 plays, they want to get Jackson involved in 35,” McPeek said. “That’s the guy you want to know where he is at all times. I told our guys if he goes to Wendy’s, you better know what he orders.” Quote of the week from Fairview's head coach. I bet Jonathan could have a Frosty in one hand and the football in the other and still flatten his opponent, many of which will be hanging on from behind just trying to slow him down. Despite Fairview wanting to be the more physical team on the field, I expect the Eagles to be a step or 2 slower in the second half and Mayfield will pull away. 42-21 Mayfield

Kudos on the Beechwood burgers. They were delicious. Mayfield was it's own worst enemy in the 1st half with the dropped passes. Really poor pass defense by the Tigers... coverage was way too loose. Speed may have contributed to the big cushion. If not backed up so often in the 1st 2 quarters, Cards could have thrown more often. New blood in Bowling Green this year.

Nussbaum left, Nussbaum right, Nussbaum up the gut. Once that doesn't work, I'm guessing we'll see the "special" Mayfield package that's been in the works for the last 3+ months since the scouting started. Mayfield just needs to come out a play hard from the 1st snap and everything will take care of itself. Let this game stay close into the 4th quarter and anything can and probably will happen. This is not an elite Tiger team, but there should be plenty of excitement next summer in Ft. Mitchell heading into the the 2013 campaign. This year belongs to Jackson and company, his record setting Mayfield career will end where it should, in Bowling Green for a 4th and final time. 28-14 Mayfield

This year's Tiger is just a cub. Still can't leave its momma yet. :jump:

Same junk, different season. :sssh:
