Absolutely not. I can barely get it to the rim. :lol2:

35 missed field goals didn't help.

Not sure everyone got the sarcasm.

@brooksville, you seem to be up on all that is Bracken Co. Before I make a prediction, can you confirm that those 3 "extra teammates" that Bracken had in that first game, live in Bracken Co? Or perhaps what was their benefits to suiting up for the Polar Bears that night? Just want to make sure I'm dealing with facts.

Bracken won that game by 7. If the Igloo is responsible for Campbell missing 35 field goals and 6 free throws(according to KHSAA), then you're right. Will only assume they had a few turnovers as well. Yet, with these facts, it still falls on the officiating. By the way, I agree that Campbell should be a huge favorite in this next game.

I'd say regardless of venue, at this time your margin of victory is probably correct. Was just pointing out the irony in validating ones claim. The real spade, as eluded to in an earlier post, is that depending on which side of the floor that fans sit on, usually determines which calls are good or bad. Not just this game, but pretty much every game. The posts on BGP validates that on most all game threads.

What I HEARD came from graduates and fans of Bracken County who were also at the game. So apparently someone needs glasses and to study the Rule book of basketball a bit more. One way or the other. It's also quite funny how majority of the "big wins" for the Polar Bears come at home, don't think I've seen them beat a good team on the road. Take that for what it's worth. ^This is a post from another thread from the same member. Little bit of irony. So, it appears that if the Bracken fans support your claim then they know what they're talking about.

Make no mistake, best part of this game was @Randy Parker update thread. :lol2:

Tremendous post.

Two years in a row that Bourbon almost upset a heavyweight in the regional tourney. Last season Mason and now Campbell.

It's a popular topic to gripe about, but as @Goldsunrise always points out, if they want to come to your school of choice, are you going to turn them away?

Could be @sumoroyal favorite topic. :lol2:

Flowers from Bath Co, by the way of Scott Co, by the way of Nicholas. Been there 3 years. Behanan, Harrison(I think), and Igo are more recent additions.

Definitely don't think at this level does championships automatically equate to one being a better coach than the other. Yes, it does absolutely look better on their resume. Again, at this level, if we remove players of recent memory such as Lofton(Chris), Miller, Bach, Knowles, Zollo, Belchers(the players), etc, etc, etc, from their coaches rosters, then odds are their championship totals look a lot different.

Speaking of coaches and as a bit of a side note, a lot has been said on different threads about Augusta's success over the last few years and the role Hinson and now Kirk had in that success, but I would like to point out that the common denominator amongst them both was/is the assistants there.

That we can agree. Glad Biggs was able to pull it out.

You're right. I'm sure Allen Feldhaus Sr and Kelly Wells would be proud of Biggs doing that great job you referred to of beating Bracken Co., this year.

....and the beauty of this thread is I could say Code and others could have won a regional championship with the 05 Pendleton team, and like you can't prove anything.

From what I SAW, you HEARD wrong.

So, you feel certain that Biggs would have regional championships if he coached at St Pat, Augusta, etc?

Back when you had to park up and down 68 because of the large crowd.

According to all the logic I read about the Bracken boys and their "senior" leadership and how it should be their year. Then with that logic, the Lady Royals should tap dance through the tourney.

No, I meant Brad Cox. Who would Hinson have to play if they win?

...he must have shared a spoonful with Brad Cox and the Lady Royals

If Mason beating Bracken now qualifies as a good coaching job, then I'd say a team that has won 2 state championships in the last decade and a half should probably figure out a way to raise the bar.
