It's the AP, enough said...they may know less about Football teams and players than my wife's book club.

I would add Wilson Kelly Dtackle from Boyle 115 Tackles and 25 for loss last year from nose. I agree with Octavius also. Those two are the two best Dtackles in KY and I'm a Belfry fan. LOL

A lot of talent in 4A this year, I agree it's loaded, I used to be an Assistant Coach at the FCS level many years ago. Kids are just much more athletic and physically strong in High School than they used to be. On the topic of Boyle, we know of 2 players for sure but Kelly is the only other definite D1 player just because of skill and strength,speed by a big guy,the only thing his 6'2 or so height will hurt him a bit, so it will take the right fit. I see Kelly as a kid that plays in the MAC.Most every school at the D1 level has a specific criteria for height,weight,strength,speed,by position if you don't meet those requirements they wont open one's film, so a lot of really good football players are missed out on. That is what hurts lots of really good players and it's out of there control. Colleges these days will say give me 6'5 or so lineman , or a 4.5 or lower 40 and you can play D1 even if you are a average football player. Coaches believe they can coach players up if they are athletes and have the physical attributes.

The AP is an absolute joke on its voting and most people in the know put no weight in the AP for the most part. All of these All State teams will have kids left out. Really the Courier Journal gets it the closest just because coaches vote.

Both teams looks slow tonight and not very impressive by either squad including Coaching.

Boyles Quarterback has killed Boyle 4 turnovers in the red zone by him Corbin d has dominated Boyle.

I don't look for this game to be competitive, possibly a running clock. Scott 49-14.

That shows and proves definite pass interference. My last year of coaching High School before moving to college they put the rule in "any contact prior to the ball arriving including use of hands is pass interference" so that picture should end the discussion.

I’m going 42-21 Boyle. I think this game will be close in the first quarter but I look for Boyle to pull away.

I’ve heard it will be Nebraska also.

If Boyle County is healthy, especially if Smith and Kelly are back this week I wouldn't expect this game to be close, just from the pressure by Kelly and Smith's ability in the secondary makes things more difficult for Allen and Catholic. If those two don't play it could possibly be a game. I'm assuming they are playing and going Boyle county 49-21.

Kelly wasn’t ejected in that game that was Hatter. I went down to that game with a Coach from EKU and we were watching players closely especially Kelly. It was confirmed he had surgery yesterday but no more details than that.

I just heard from my buddy over at Danville that Wilson Kelly,Boyle's leading tackler and olineman who Smith has been playing both ways had surgery yesterday and is out. Kelly and Smith are Boyle’s 2 best players and with both of them out Boyle is nowhere near the same team. Anybody have details of Kelly’s injury??

I’m going to this one, I think Desales pulls away late but Catholic is going to score just not enough. Desales 42-28

My friend that lives over in Danville told me he heard today from a person within the program Reese Smith is out for the rest of the year and hopefully is ready by playoffs, If that’s true a big blow for Boyle.
