Not really. That decade from 2010-2019 the Purples went against X, Trinity, Chattanooga McCallie, Blackman (TN), Lex Cath, prime Warren Central, prime John Hardin, amongst others. I think the gripe is that Bowling Green doesn't just lose these games. They get pasted and there's nothing being changed. It truly seems like the culture that was established from those years has been completely lost. If we're calling a spade a spade, we've had state championship teams this decade lose to Bryan Station and 2A LCA... a lot of the issues (especially defensively) were masked IMO by the most talented quarterback to ever come through Bowling Green HS. I'm as big of a Bowling Green guy as you'll find, but at some point there has to be a serious evaluation of where the program stands.

All of this from BG is just impossible to take up for.

Please, no. My heart can't take it. Run the clock and let's just get it over with.

They are essentially running plays on air.

Like the offense fighting back against the Centurions. Sadly, I fear this means CAL might hang 70.

Barren is winning the line of scrimmage and the turnover battle. If that continues the Trojans will win.

I'm embarrassed. No words can do this justice.

I think Barren can win. Will they? Your guess is as good as mine. I don't think either team will slow one another down much. Going to come down to turnovers and how many times these teams can get off the field. I do know that Coach Myers probably has the Scott County/BG tape and likely started salivating. Barren has nobody like Timmy Emongo, but if BGHS doesn't tackle well (again) or adjust to tendencies (again) or simply get lined up correctly (again)... It could very well be a stressful night. I will continue to support this group and hope for the best on Friday for the Purps, but this is as gettable as the district will ever be for the Trojans IMO.

Is anybody really surprised by this?

Agree here, this is where I land on all of it too. Owensboro's offense with Ganaway is every bit as capable (if not more) as this Purples group. If you like offense, that game between BG and SC was likely game of the year. Maybe all the scoring would've been cool to me 10-15 years ago. But last Friday, all it told me, was that those two teams aren't very likely to win a state championship.

Indeed they were. Granted it was around 6-7 min left, the bigger issue is they didn't get off the field at all (literally). Just not a set up for success. Going in to the game asking your offense to score every time they touch it is asking for misery.

Bowling Green's defense is youthful and schematically flawed IMO. They'll put some points up but it's all very concerning. You can only hope for adjustments but the ability to stop the run has escaped BGHS for a while now. Hoping for the best.
