Pacman69

Was there a stream of this game anywhere? Would love to watch!

True, but if you don't prep, aren't you more likely to run base stuff? Play the game to get a win, nothing fancy beyond that?

An AP #3 shouldn’t have to run anything fancy to hammer Greenup County at their own field.

I think Breathitt might be a little overvalued in the rankings, but keep in mind this game was added very late (Wednesday afternoon, I think). Neither team had much prep time.

Equal amount of prep time for both teams so I don’t think that matters much.

Would you please expand on this?

Breathitt beats a Greenup county team, who won’t win a playoff game by 7 at home. Not an impressive win to me. They should fall out of the top 3 in the AP Poll. Not talking about the Preps poll. Should have clarified in original post!

Congratulations LCA! The rematch should be a dandy!

Ashland is a quarterback away from being a serious threat to win a state title.

Wow... bobcats should fall in rankings.

I expect a competitive football game between these two teams. Great opportunity for both teams. I’ll take the comets by 2!

Per normal...the AP Poll is ridiculous.

 

Class 2A

Rank-School (FPV)           Rcd  TP   Pvs

1. Somerset (14)                 5-0  140   1 

2. Mayfield                           4-1  113   4 

3. Breathitt County               3-0  104   3 

4. Lexington Christian          4-1   99    2 

5. Beechwood                      3-2   88    5 

6. West Carter                      5-0   67    8 

7. Owensboro Catholic         4-1   57    6 

8. Danville                             3-1   36    7 

9. Hancock County                4-1   28   10

10. Caldwell County               2-2   24   9 

AP Poll is absolute garbage. Breathitt at 3 makes no sense!

Ads by 17.

Beechwood by a billion.

This is the perfect ranking.

When that district came together before last season, I really expected it to be very competitive with West Carter being in contention for a district title most years. Either I overestimated the other schools, or I underestimated West Carter. 

I expect it to be much more competitive in 2021 and 2022.

I can't answer for VoR, but I agree with him. A top 5 team should manhandle Martin County this year. They lost to Magoffin County (an average team) by 48. 

Calpreps projects West Carter to win 52-3. Anytime Calpreps projects a margin that wide, that's a strong indicator of the discrepancy in quality between the two teams. 

You make a good point. I’ll admit I don’t know much about Martin County this year. I won’t even get to make the game Friday. From the comments I’ve seen on this post though, I now feel like the comets should definitely win by more than my original prediction which is fine by me!

If West Carter wins by anything less than 4 touchdowns, it casts doubts on them as a legit top 5 team in 2A 

How so?

The Comets (5-0) head down to Martin County (3-2) for a big district showdown. I’ll take West Carter by 12.

Final from Olive Hill. Comets continue their assault on Class 2A District 8.

This should take Danville out of the top 5. I think that ranking was a bit premature anyways. Somerset shows everyone why they’re the top dog in 2A.

And two more easy weeks ahead. However, they finish with Raceland, Lexington Christian, and Breathitt County so we should have a better idea of where Paintsville stands once the playoffs begin. 

If Paintsville can win all three of those games they should be the undisputed #1 ranked team in the class going into the playoffs. However, I don’t see them winning all three.

Maxpreps Rankings!

3A is so competitive this year. There’s 4-5 teams who could win it all!

Danville Somerset is the game of the week to me. Really good ranking though!

Bobcats get back on track with a win.

Golden Eagles by as much as Matney wants to win by.

Paintsville running clock.
