Hardin County Preps

I guess at this point in the Bruins season the question isn't "can they win a game' but will they be able to score at some point this season? Maybe this is the week vs Daviess County where this team has the opportunity to put some points on the scoreboard. Daviess County has been outscored 276- 49 While Central Hardin has been outscored 270-0 thru 6 games. Central Hardin might be able to put some points on the board for the first time this season but I think Daviess County prevails in this matchup. My prediction: Daviess County 34 Central Hardin 7

During the current Bulldog 4 -game losing streak, they have been outscored 129-32. They have shown some promise on the offensive side of the ball but the defense can't get off of the field. QB Adrian Lunsford has thrown for 383 yards on the season on 74 attempts and RB Trae Martin has 446 yards on 82 carries. Aiden Franklin is the leading receiver with 130 yards on 10 receptions. I have confidence that first year head coach Jeremy Harness can get this program turned around, but then again I thought that Central Hardin would win 4 games this year? I think that Bethlehem will be too much for the Bulldogs. My prediction: Bethlehem 36 John Hardin 14

Absolute embarrassment for a Central Hardin program that is a total train wreck.

This game could reach the 70 point threshold for CAL.

Going into week 5 of the season vs CAL, Central Hardin has been outscored 163-0 in their first four games. This begs to question, has there been a 6A school in recent memory, that has gone a full season without scoring a point? I pose this question only because I really think this scenario is becoming more and more possible as the season wears on for these Bruins. The Bruins were held to only 88 points on the season last year and are on pace to eclipse this mark.

Yeah, I must have bumped my head. This was the messaging coming from players/coaches before the season began.

John Hardin (2-2), comes into this matchup on the heels of a 40-3 loss at Fairdale. Marion County (1-3), comes into this matchup losing to W.E.B. DuBois Academy, 41-6. Both teams have played Fairdale with Marion County losing in week 2, 44-27. The Bulldog defense was thought to be the strong point of this team early in the season but has not played well over the past 2 weeks. This game should be a pretty evenly matched game with undoubtedly, the team making the fewest mistakes, coming out on top. Marion County relies heavily on the run game. Senior RBs Dee Thornton, Nathan Shuck, and Xavier Hayden all pose problems for a John Hardin defense that has given up 88 points in the last 2 games. My Prediction: Marion County 36 John Hardin 32

Central Hardin hosts the CAL Centurions on Thursday night smarting from a 48-0 whooping by the North Hardin Trojans. Another 2026 Bruin game in which they failed to gain over 100 total yards for the game. On the season they have been outscored 163-0 in their first four games. This begs to question, has there been a 6A school in recent memory, that has gone a full season without scoring a point? I pose this question because I really think this scenario is becoming more and more possible as the season wears on for these Bruins. The Bruins were held to only 88 points on the season last year and are on pace to eclipse this mark. QB Caleb Wilson has not performed well and has been prone to turnovers via interceptions and fumbled snaps. When they do get a clean Center/QB exchange, he is often under pressure and takes a sack due to the poor play on the offensive line. Their special teams also has had issues. Their average on punts this season is 24 yards. On defense, they have been getting overpowered at the line of scrimmage and the opposing team's offensive lines have produced huge holes for their RBs to gain significant yards. They have tried to run the wildcat offense with Tony Hinton, who has shown promise running this offense. Stating the obvious, this game will get out of hand quickly. I am just hoping for no injuries and a group of kids who play hard and will show some heart against a team that I consider the second- best overall team in the state of Kentucky, behind only Trinity. I will defer to Unrivaled97 to provide some insight into this Centurion program that is possibly having one of the best seasons of any football program in recent history in the state of Kentucky.

Can a team go o-10 and not score a point on the season? This certainly seems possible with this team. Epically bad. How do you get this team ready to play CAL?
