The only team to beat Mayfield had an Offensive line as big as this, the states leading receiver in yards and touchdowns, and the states leading rusher at the time. They also picked off Stinson 3 times, and only won by 10. I can’t see Somerset being able to emulate that, I’ll go with Mayfield 45-28.
Mayfield is battle tested, always plays a great schedule, including a good team out of Memphis, Paducah Tilghman, McCracken County, and Madisonville North-Hopkins. All very good teams.
North most likely won’t be able to get a lot of pressure on Trinity’s QB, didn’t get any last week against McCracken, McCracken does have a good O-line, but would assume Trinity does too. The field conditions aided some of that, but same conditions expected today.
For all the flack Mayfield’s defense has received, it’s really been a pretty solid group outside of the McCracken and the Madisonville games, and Beechwood does not bring the offensive line, running backs or receivers that those teams did.
I have to disagree, a large part of the game was McCracken’s defense getting worn out in the forth quarter. With both of Bradley and Wheat playing their defense likely wouldn’t have been out there as long. North may has still won but it definitely would’ve been a close game.
