WEB DuBois hasn't played near the caliber of competition as LCA. I don't think it's a running clock but I'd say something like 35-7 in favor of LCA.

Good question. And are they all suspended for the next game or can you stagger them across multiple weeks in order to keep playing, and also not punish the upcoming team(s) on your schedule by not getting to play?

I don't know enough about them to say specifically, but you're probably right. And it coincided with an uptick in talent at Knox and McCreary, two schools Bell has traditionally beaten on the football field.

Very likely they'll be the four seed and playing at Lawrence County in the first round.

Belfry by a bunch, but we watch the highlights on WYMT every Friday night and the running back from East Ridge looks like a really nice player. Glad to see the Warriors having some success.

Inquiring minds across the commonwealth want to know why we went from the absolute best scoreboard to the absolute worst. I'm not apologizing for digging.

I really like Patrick Radden Keefe. His previous book, Say Nothing, about the Troubles in Northern Ireland was great, and was later made into a TV series on FX. However, this one was a bit overwhelming. There was so many characters to keep up and it seemed almost from the beginning that there would be no clear resolution. I wouldn't say don't read it but I might pick up something else before this one.

Not necessarily. I suspect a Garrard/Mercer game late season will be very competitive.

As a Garrard County fan in a really difficult district, I fully appreciate Whitley County's perspective. As you mentioned in an earlier example, there have been several years where our school was among the top 6-8 teams in the region, yet we haven't played in the region in over twenty years because of the current district setup (including Lincoln, Boyle, Danville, and now DCA). I'd still like to see some guidance from the KHSAA about long-term plans for this format in the 15th and other regions.

Ballard seems pretty strong on defense but very limited on offense. My guess is the Bruins stay close for a bit but Boyle ultimately rolls.

I don't love it and I don't hate it. What I don't like is that the opportunity has existed for several years in the 15th Region and now seems to be happening in the 13th Region, but has there been any guidance for other regions? How long is this "trial period"? Is there a timeline? People cursed and yelled for years because the 39th District drew instead of seeded, and the commissioner even held a meeting with those four schools, but there seems to be little advice or recommendations from above about this format..

I've been reading this off and on for well over a year. Wasn't always enjoyable but definitely learned a lot!

I believe they've been 6th all season. Where should they be? Obviously not ahead of CAL and their schedule isn't close to Lexington Catholic. I think they have a case to be ahead of Murray and Lloyd when comparing strength of schedule, but they're both undefeated. Fair or not, I wonder if their second round loss to Union in the playoffs last season after finishing the regular season undefeated has left a speck of doubt in the minds of those doing the rankings?

Maybe, but GRC seemed a bit of a paper tiger. Their wins have come against poor competition.

That was about the most unexpected win ever. Go Cats!

Maybe a stretch play, something off tackle, take a little extra time?

Eh, didn't love those calls. Three straight same plays. I'm okay with running it but maybe a slightly different look on one of the three?

Agreed. Big play upcoming.

Offensive line is dominating right now. Running lanes are wide open.

Felt a little desperate.

That was the best drive of the Stein era. Impressive!

Very solid half by Kentucky. Would love to see them pull this out!

Touchdown Cats! Great play call!

Why in the world did Kentucky take a timeout there?

Credit due, perfect throw and catch. Kentucky has to capitalize.
