WHO'S NEXT?

I think the win over OCath last week may start the ball rolling to Bowling Green for Murray. 24 to 20 win this week, followed by a road victory at Glasgow next week.

As always, I'm worried about Mayfield giving up a cheap score or two on the long ball. However, after watching Jonathan Jackson simply steamrolling HC and taking the team on his back (even more so than usual) I don't think Mayfield will be seriously theatened... at least in the end. Hoping Mayfield comes out with a couple of early scores and gets a running clock going and maybe get the JV in for a few minutes toward the end. 49-17 Mayfield.

I was watching the live stream from the Mayfield game of these two. It was 6 turnovers by my count, 3 picks / 3 fumbles. At least one of the fumbles and one of the interceptions set up 2 KCD short scoring drives.

Guess 3rd on that list is pretty good, considering no one will ever catch the top two. Would also like some insight from the one pollster who voted for Holy Cross to win. :lol:

Just like last week. Mayfield by 50 at halftime

Who says they haven't seen Frankfort? Not one person compiles these playoff previews. I've seen Frankfort, and unless the second coming of Jared Lorenzen doesn't burn Mayfield deep on repeated occasions, then Mayfield has an excellent chance of winning. Looking at the success Danville was having on the ground, even when Frankfort knew the Ad's had no passing game last week, I would think Mayfield's running game would put up some big numbers. Would love a shorter trip to Frankfort this season. By the way... Mayfield fans have heard this "more team speed or as much team speed as Mayfield" in the playoffs the last several years, and we're still waiting to see it.

:laugh:

Rogers comes west again, but no more wing T at Graves.

Longest trip for a district game in several years. Mayfield may take a couple of series to wake up, but will get it going before halftime. 28-0 by half, 42 to 8 final.

I too will reserve judgement until next year, when there is no Jonathan Jackson to run wild out of the backfield keeping the defense honest.

You can't have it both ways. :thumb:

Harlan is 2-3. Russellville is 3-2, frankly a bit surprising. Hazard is 1-2, albeit against respectable competition. Others have either beaten up on weak teams, as they do every year, to produce winning records. I.E. Fairview's opponents combined record is 4 and 16. Others have stepped up to the plate, as Beechwood does every year, but has yet to deliver. I'm willing to withhold judgement on Williamsburg, but my guess Hazard could take them fairly easily.

Frankfort 1A, Lexington Christian 2A. With LCA knocking off Hazard, I'm betting they get the better of Frankfort too. 40 to 21. LCA

I would put this team 3rd of the last 3, granted the regular season is only half complete. At the same time, It's starting to look like Class A football may be weaker than in previous years.

Running D was a little spotty at times, looked great and next play would give up a big chunk. Give some credit to Katzman, one of the better backs on this end of the state. Got a very good performance from the secondary, the one pass interference call was even questionable. This is not the same stingy D from the past few seasons, but when you can put up points almost at will, it's not that big of a concern as it otherwise would be. There is still room for improvement though, and I'm sure the D will keep improving. Offense, as mentioned above, tearing it up. When you can throw up over 50 on Graves Co., almost did the same to Paducah, and scored as many points on Murray in a quarter as they had given up all season, that's saying something.

Final(ly)

Toughest game left on Mayfield sked until late November. BGP has taken notice of the Eagles this year, ranking them in the class 5A top 10. After the Tilghman win they may even move up a notch or 2. The fact that Mayfield didn't win by blowout fashion last year shocked a few on the other side of the state. Anyone who knew how tough Graves played everyone last year, and add the fact that this is a rivalry game... it didn't surprise anyone down here in WKY. Graves' spread offense and a mobile QB, combined with a Mayfield secondary still working out the kinks, should find a few more points than the 7 they put up last year in this game. Problem for Graves is, Mayfield has scored no fewer than 28, and that came against Warren Central. Graves is no Warren Central. 38-21 MAYFIELD.

I think everyone will get a better idea of what Frankfort is all about after next week.

Not just 56, but Mayfield had a legitimate shot of hanging 63 on PT. 3 times in the PT red zone and didn't get points, of course the final time they only needed to take a knee. How do you not know as a coach that the when the ball is marked ready for play after a first down that the clock starts again. 2.3 seconds in the 2nd quarter and PT trots their FG unit on to the field. Never got close to getting a snap off. Embarrassing, even the casual fan knows that.

I'm guessing that Mayfield will be back in 2A before Beechwood cracks that nut. Seems to me that horse would be the food of choice for those semi-final tailgates.
