I agree sometimes it doesn’t seem like the defender can avoid a ducking offensive runner but they consistently call that targeting. The onus is squarely on the defender to not hit above the shoulders regardless of what the offensive player does

Owensboro is 3-4 coming off a much needed win over Marshall County 56-6 ending a 3 game losing streak. Apollo is 5-2 losing to Christian County 21-43. The teams have a couple common opponents: Apollo beat Owensboro Catholic 31-24 and lost to Christian County 21-43 Owensboro beat Owensboro Catholic 47-12 and lost to Christian County 27-48 Last season Owensboro won 35-14, can a much improved Apollo Eagles team get revenge or do the Red Devils prevail?

Southwestern is 5-2 after beating South Laurel 64-23. Lincoln County is 3-4 losing to Pulaski County 20-41. Last season Southwestern won 37-7. Can the Patriots use some “Death Valley” mojo to get the win, or will that have no affect on Coach French and the Warriors? Who wins?

Madison Southern is 5-2 after a 36-30 win over Montgomery County. Woodford County is 0-7 losing 14-44 to Anderson County. Last year Madison Southern won 49-7. Do the Yellow Jackets have chance or will the Eagles soar?

Fern Creek is 4-4 after losing 20-21 to Doss. Southern is 3-4 after beating Fairdale 30-19. Last season Fern Creek won 41-34. Both teams are 2-1 in district and the winner of the game looks to secure the #2 playoff seed.

Bowling Green is coming of a bye week and are 5-2 this season. Barren County is 0-7. Bowling Green has not lost to a 5A team since Graves County on Nov 21, 2014. Barren County just doesn’t seem up to the task having scored just 27 points this season while allowing 329 (2nd most in 5A).

Covington Catholic is 7-0 after beating Bishop Chatard (IN) 30-7. Highlands is 3-4 after a 47-0 win over Dixie Heights. Do the Bluebirds have a shot vs the Colonels?

Oldham scores on 6 y TD pass, kick tipped no good. BC 7 OC 6 11:21 2nd qtr

End of 1st quarter, Bullitt Central 7 Oldham County 0. Oldham County 2nd and 3 on 8 yardline

Oldham Co got the ball first, tried a fake punt that was stuffed and Bullitt Central took over on the OC 37. They marched down all runs and scored on short run. Then Oldham Co seemed to be moving the ball, attempted a screen pass and was intercepted by #53. OC defense held and is now moving out to own 40.

PRP was playing without starting QB BJ Robinson, #4 Nick Elder played QB. Elder is a senior and plays pretty well, but not same kind of dual threat as Robinson

Yes, Thursday night 7:30 kickoff

The people looking at Western must be just looking at their record and not the actual games. They did get blasted by both Male and Butler but Male and Butler are top 10 6A teams. They were up 12-0 on Central before giving up two TD in final 5 minutes to lose 13-12. They lost to Manual 7-6. That’s a 1pt loss to a top 5 3A team and a 1pt loss to a top 10 6A team.

Southwestern is 4-2, last week beating 6A Central Hardin 34-21. South Laurel drops to 3-3 after losing to Montgomery County 36-60. Last season Southwestern won 62-20. Who wins?

Madison Southern is 4-2 and last week had a bye. Montgomery County is 5-1 and last week beat South Laurel 60-36. Last season Madison Southern won 49-7, however last season Montgomery County was a 3-8 team and this year are much improved. Can the Indians continue to improve and beat the Eagles to revenge last years loss or does Madison Southern win?

Owensboro is 2-4 after losing to Christian County 27-48. With 3 straight losses the Red Devils are looking to rebound and now host Marshall County (3-4). Marshall County has lost 2 straight, last week to Graves County 20-55. The teams have a common opponent in Christian County, both losing. Marshall County lost 6-37 to Christian County. Who gets back on the winning track?

Fern Creek is 4-3 after beating Iroquois 49-14. Doss is 3-3 after beating Fairdale 49-21. The 5A District 4 title is up for grabs, last season Fern Creek won 41-20. The teams have one common opponent, both lost to 6A Butler. Fern Creek 20-28, Doss 14-38. Who wins?

Christian County is 6-0 after dispatching Owensboro 48-27. Apollo is 5-1 after beating Grayson County 38-35. Last season Christian County won this district matchup 49-14, but the 2017 Apollo Eagles are much improved over last years 2-8 team. Apollo’s one loss is to Evansville Central and have won 5 straight vs Kentucky schools. Does Apollo have what it takes to beat the Colonels?

Is FCSD Fayette County School District?

Watch this video about 2017 rule changes, in 2016 it is a legal block, in 2017 under NFHS rules it is NOT. The video is made by a referee and explains the rule changes. Cannot lead with the shoulder anymore for a block out of the free blocking zone.
