  1. Haha that's hilarious. I do think there is merit to what Rambo mentioned. Any team that can use their starting defense as a scout team has a built in advantage.

     

    As for Mayfield fans, they are supremely confident, as they should be. The reason the program has had the success it has, its because of the support of the fans and community. Losing is not acceptable, and an environment of hard work, dedication, and high expectations feeds into the machine. I don't see them as arrogant at all. Besides, what Mayfield has done is remarkable considering the size of the community. Heck I've never known Mayfield to get a slew of transfers or kids that magically appear in the hallways. They seem to do it the right way, which is something that is a dying way nowadays.

     

    Respect.

    Thanks Devils 58. Your spot on
  2. The arrogance from the Mayfield contingent. Wow.

     

    Is it always like that?

    There is a thin line between arrogance and confidence. I can promise you us Mayfield fans are not arrogant. With our resume of 11 state titles, appearing in the last 6 state games winning 4 of them, and 5th in the nation all time wins it jus boils down to us being confident in our team. Especially with this game being played at home when we have only lost 1 game in 40 something games at home. So jus because we like our chances doesn't mean we don't respect OC or any other team that we play.
  3. I have really enjoyed this thread so far and can't wait to see the rest throughout the week. Can someone who is familiar with OC please tell me what the upperclassman looks like on the team? Is the team overall younger or older class-man? I think senior led group would be a force to reckon with. I can't help but wonder how hype and being prepared for big playoff game will play out for each team. Personally MF has seen the confidence of others teams carrying allot of momentum into the playoffs, which naturally should give them confidence, but I think the difference is experience. What's your thoughts?

  4. I don't know much about OC except for they have put up a bunch of points all season long and I know they have a good QB. With that said I know our defense has played very very good all season long. It seems like we have had success with good QB's in the past and last week was one example. I think this game comes down to line play and especially for our defensive line. We need to keep pressure on the QB the entire game.

     

    Our offense played really well against Butler and Arnett was spot on with his passes. Having Bright back and healthy makes our offense so much more potent. I think they are finally clicking like much of us have enticipated and that's good to see late in the season. If memory serves me correctly the last time these 2 teams squared up it was my Sophmore year back in 1994 at Owensboro which was Mayfield's last year in 2A. We won that game.

     

    Being at home is a plus and I think we are playing good football so I'm gonna roll with my Cardinals in a close one 28-21.

  5. I think you all maybe right about someone from the East sneaking up and winning. You really can't ever count out NCC. I know DeSales manhandled them last year but that was a pretty special defense DeSales had. I know Mayfield fans are very confident , and by all means they should be. But the winner of that OC- Murray game has the potential to win it all and Mayfield can't take that lightly. Ask your good friends at Caldwell County about what Murray is capable of in the playoffs and even DeSales for that matter. They had a touchdown called back last year that shouldn't have been. And as for OC... if they can get over the "Tiger" on their back in Rd 2 against Murray and stay healty...look out.
    Speaking for most of us Mayfield people I would say yes we are confident in our team winning it all but make no mistake, we are not overlooking a potential matchup against Murray or OC! Those 2 teams are very capable of going all the way. If we make it to the final four then I know we will have our hands full against one of the Louisville schools. Us being at home throughout the playoffs is huge this season.
