GC-Dragons

It's pretty wild how fast a fan base can go from Highlands is back, to we are terrible in a matter of a few weeks. I think some should pump the brakes and give the staff some time to build the team. It isn't like they are being beat by 30 plus every week. Each game had been competitive and they haven't been blown out, its going to take some time.

Final from Campbellsville. The Dragons dominated this game more than the score shows, I would bet the dragons had over 180 yards in penalties and at least 7-9 holding penalties called on them. Two touchdowns called back and this is a completely different looking ball game. I'd say Houchens had over 100 plus yards called back on big runs just himself. I also want to give Campbellsville some love for how hard those kids played. They left it on the field, but just didn't have the horses to run with the Dragons this year. The Dragons also came out flat, just not a ton of energy from them tonight, but a win is a win and the Dragons push on to 6-0. On to Warren Central next week.

I kind of saw this coming. BE can score in bunches and Danville has had issues scoring the football. I didn't see the 62 points, I was thinking more along the lines of 48ish, but could see Danville being beat pretty good by this solid BE squad.

I'm pretty certain the top 3 won't change. They may change from 1-3 with each other, but the top three are going to be there at the end. I will say this, if Green County somehow makes a region title game or a semi, I'd rather play Beechwood than LCA. I believe the Dragons would match up much better with Beechwood than LCA. With that said, LCA and Beechwood are 4-5 TD favorites over everyone not named Mayfield, and I'd still take those two over Mayfield by at least 2 Tds.

Green County moved the ball really well against Adair in the scrimmage, and I expect Glasgow to do the same. Glasgow is more than likely a better team than Green County, so this could be tough for Adair. Adair has some nice pieces and I think will play close for a quarter or two, but Glasgow pulls away and wins something like 38-6.

The Dragons are pretty solid. I think they could beat everyone in class 2a not named Beechwood, LCA, or Mayfield. I do think the Dragons could be competitive with Mayfield but would say they are a 2-3 touchdown favorite over the Dragons.

I've seen Bardstown Bethlehem and Russellville, and both are super good squads. I'm not sure they can beat Pikeville, but I think both can beat anyone else in the top 10. Should be an interesting playoff picture in a few weeks.

This is the best class top to bottom in the state in my opinion. 5a has so many good teams, and so many teams I could see winning it all.

This class is loaded. So many good teams. The playoffs are about to be wild in 4a.

For me its either Russellville or Bardstown Bethlehem. I think Bethlehem is flying under the radar, they are super fast and are a very solid team. With that said, Russellville has been very good all year, and gave Glasgow the best game of anyone else besides Wofford County. Its a very hard pick, I like them both.

It was all Dragons in this one. Green scored at Will and it was 44-6 at the half and the dragons scored on the first drive of the second half and the Jv guys played the rest of the game. I want to give a big shout out to Clinton County. Those kids played hard and never stopped getting after it. I wish them well the rest of the year. The Dragons travel to Campbellsville next week in a big Rivalry game, let’s see if the Dragons can push it to 6-0.

I don't mean to sound rude, but you can watch games for over 100 years and that won't change the fact Mayfield isn't better than beechwood in my opinion. I'm also not sure where I said they couldn't go toe to toe with them, but take it whatever way you want. Beechwood is better than Mayfield right now, Neutral field, Beechwood beats Mayfield by 2 TDs.

The advancement in the ability to watch games online is wonderful, and it allowed me the ability to watch Mayfield and Beechwood games. From someone who has no dog in this fight, Beechwood looked superior to Mayfield in games I watched. Beechwood just seems better than Mayfield at this point. Mayfield looked good, but it was far from a team I think beats Beechwood.

Pretty awesome to see Green County ranked that high. Its been a long time coming. Super proud of our kids and coaching staff. The Dragons look to be on course to battle Metcalfe for the district title.

This is very similar to what I expect. Hart is better than they looked Friday. With that said, Glasgow has really started to get it going and are going to be a super tough out for anyone in 3a.

We could find out just how good Pikeville is with this game. LCA looks like a small college team on the field, and I expect them to play very well.

Boyle County is very very good team. They have blown out some really good teams like its nothing this year. Which makes me want to know just how good LCA is when they ran the ball at will on Boyle County. They did it with the starting QB out as well.

This was an ugly game. One of those nights, when you do everything wrong and still dominate the scoreboard. Green was 100 percent flat and played about as ugly as they could. Fortunately for the Dragons, they are just a much better team this year and had the better athletes. Monroe played hard and I give them credit, but the game the Dragons played tonight was about 45 percent of what the first 3 games were. This type of game after a huge win the week prior could have been expected, but these types of games will get you beat when you play a good team. I really hope to see a great game next week from the Dragons and expect them to play much better.

As I said, Highlands was a bit over inflated with that bowling Green win. I think Highlands is headed in the right direction, but aren't a top team this year.

Wow. LCA might be in the discussion for a top 10 in the entire state.

Unfortunately Green County has less kids than Metcalfe. I believe the Dragons have around 26-28 kids most days. I would say that the first 13-15 kids Green puts on the field are as good as any team in the area. Just very little depth. Skill position wise, they are as deep and talented as any small 2a school that's from a rural area I've seen in a long time. The good news for Dragon fans is all 3 of the Rb return next year along with the QB and 4 of 5 Linemen. The Dragons are still a young team.

I knew they would be improved, but they have even been better than I suspected. I also knew Coach Phelps walked into a gold mine when he got the job. They returned every starter minus one lineman. With that said, Coach Phelps has done nothing but inspire the kids and run a great system. He took the ball and ran with it. Great young coach and I expect big things from him over the next few years.

Hey Purple88, It has to be Metcalfe. Metcalfe pretty much returned the entire team. They did lose a good LB and their best RB from last years team, but everything else is back. They are very solid and that game is at Metcalfe, should be a tough one. The rest of the district is very down. Clinton, Monroe, and Edmonson all have the worst teams they have had in recent memory. Green has a real chance at competing for a regional title this year.

Monroe County (0-4) Travels to Green County (3-0) for a district battle this Friday night. Monroe has had a tough season so far, but they always play the Dragons tough and I expect them to do the same this Friday night. Give me the Dragons 42-14.

This looks about right. Only thing I would change and this might shock some people here, but I'd take Green, West Carter, and Metcalfe over Somerset right now. I also wouldn't take much stock in the Metcalfe loss to Eminence, they had multiple starters out for that game and played with basically 20 kids the entire night. They had to move a receiver to RB, I believe all three other running backs were out for the game along with multiple starting offensive and defensive linemen. It also looks like it wont matter much at the end of the year, LCA and Beechwood look head and shoulders above everyone else besides maybe Mayfield.
