Very entertaining game to watch with both sides showcasing some explosive athletes. Cville has mixed up their offense throughout the year but it is clear that their personnel thrives in the spread. Congrats to Russellville for finding a way to win and it's back to work for cville as they will have the task of replacing a senior group who has brought them back to relevancy in Class A

Having young and cubit cures several issues for cville on both sides of the ball. But, crucial TURNOVERS and missed opportunities were the story in this one for Cville. Great job to Bethlehem for doing what they needed to do to win. Much tougher playoff road for cville now!

Statement A ----no doubt

Without Young, its highly inlikely that Campbellsville gets out of the first or second round alive.

With a win or loss over Bethelem, cville would play Fulton Co. Or Fulton city who have a 1-14 combined record in the first round. If they run into Russellville in round 2 I would agree with your statement. However, I think they beat Bethelem, win two playoff games, and avoid Russellville until round 3.

Central wins their 6th straight after dropping their first two games. They are playing well and are firmly in the hunt in 3A as they approach a time in the season where nobody likes seeing the black ans gold as an opponent.

Adair is a very good football team but I feel speed of the game will increase drastically for them Friday as they haven't been tested by anyone that compares to Etown. I hope Adair can pull out the W, but I think ultimately Etown is too much for them and wins in a close one ----- 28-21

Mercer's record is deceiving because the quality of the opponents they have played. They are the best team in this district and I also look for them to complete the sweep.

Cville picks up the pieces from an embarrassing loss @ Danville and beats Bethlehem for the district title 24-6. Too many athletes on both sides of the ball for Bethlehem to handle.

I like Green and their staff, and have really enjoyed watching the games I've been able to catch.

 

I want Green to win, but I just don't think they have the horses yet. I think Glasgow wins in the 10-20 point range. Green wins if they can keep drives going.

 

And thinking a team can't win because they are too 1 dimensional is hilarious. I laugh at that idea. And so does Belfry.

So you're really going to compare Green Co. and Belfry....That my friend is hilarious!! Blowitup put it in a better context. And I'm not saying Green is bad at what they do, but depending on Matney to break away 5-6 times a game is a little unrealistic because other than him they have no real threats.

I'm picking Glasgow in this one although something tells me this will be a extremely close one @ Green Co. Green is too 1-deminsional on offense and Glasgow has several talented players.

The Desales/Mayfield argument is tough one. I would favor Mayfield based on a OT loss by less pts. but that's just my opinion. Danville should be #3 . Their only loss coming to the #1 team in Class 3A who many have as a favorite to win it all (Boyle Co.). Serious contender in the East

Will not be a contest. I realize district schedules are set and non-district is done way in advance, but outside of Frankfort (who lost Washington) Paris has a very weak schedule. The hounds are very talented and the success of this season is well deserved, but the lack of competition could prove costly as early as round 2 in the playoffs IMO

Danville is a clear favorite in this one. With or without the injuries, Danville is a real contender for a 2A state title and just too much for Campbellsville this year.

This could be a trap game for the Indians. I feel they are by far the better team in this matchup. But, coming off a big road win and E-town looming after the bye week there is the possibility. That being said, I think this group is mature enough not to look ahead and get the job done this Friday.

I also believe there is a fine line to be aware of. I do feel that playing better competition ultimately prepares a team for those regional final games and beyond. However, I absolutely agree that you have to be mindful of the makeup of your team and the stage of your program. I think a nice balance of tough/competitive games mixed with some games in which your the clear favorite are the best to allow your players to be in pressure situations and building an atmosphere of winning every Friday night.

I don't think Russellville will be begging for another shot at Mayfield, but this team is very talented. They have great skill kids (especially with the addition of Drumgole), and are big up front. Combine that with Coach Myers and I could see them finding their way to BG in what most would see as an upset over Beechwood.

No chance for an upset for Ft. Knox. Even with those injuries Campbellsville has way too many weapons for Ft.Knox to handle. Campbellsville gets the running clock before half, wins 48-0, and improves their record to 6-0.

Boyle- 48

Lincoln- 0

I'm saying this will be a tight one early then Adair pulls away in convincing fashion. I will agree that the speed of the game will pick up for them this week, and I also understand the long road trip will have its effect but they are the better team. I hate to go off of other matchups to base a winner, but Washington Co. beat KCD in week 3 and I was not impressed one bit by Washington's scheme or personnel when they scrimmaged Atherton @ LWC in the pre-season.

Is green struggling this year? I understand c-vile has a good squad this year, but Green seems to be trying to find a groove...

Green is just very one dimensional. They will live or die on the legs of Matney (QB). Hopefully cville's QB will be ok. After losing Young who would have been all-state IMO and possibly the QB they seem to be snake bit. Hate to see this especially with the start cville is off to.

What has happened to Russell County? They have gone from a undefeated season to what could be a 0-10 season in just a couple of years.

Just a loss of talent from the trenches to the skill positions. Bill Sharp is a good coach, but x's & o's don't matter without jims and joes. Adair wins this one in big fashion

Got word that Young has suffered a knee injury that has ended his season. Can the Eagles overcome such a HUGE setback in a game that has haunted them for a decade? This will be a very tough game for Cville....best of luck to both teams

I guess I would fall into the strength of schedule category and believe you also must take into account what classes wins/losses are coming against. For example, Mayfield losing to McCracken should not and will not effect their ranking. I know Mayfield is Mayfield but McCracken is a 6A school while Mayfield has just recently made the move to 2A, so don't think you can penalize them. Another example to look at is Louisville Central who as of late hasn't set the world on fire during the regular season, but year after year they are in BG playing for a state title so to say they should slip in rankings is a little crazy....am i looking at this wrong?

The mystery is that Cville was without RB Kendon Young. Young didn't play against LaRue last Friday for reasons unknown, so it will be interesting to see if he is in uniform against Green. If so, its not a contest and the Eagles roll big time over the Dragons. If Young doesn't play it doesn't change much as far as Cville still being the more talented team, but I do feel it will be much closer than expected against a hungry GC team coming off a loss that nobody saw come to TC. Should be an interesting match-up!
