If Belfry wins, where is the next game?

lol, not jealous, I would pull for the team playing agianst Belfry no matter what, it is just in my blood I think. I do respect what they have done and wish them the best, but as a Breathitt Alum, I cannot pull for Belfry, I would be afraid of what may happen!.....lol

Anyone who plays Belfry...........lol!

I do not see a sustained program at this point either, but the pieces are in place personel wise next year for a successfull campaign. As far as the Superintendent is concerned I am more worried about the decisions that are being made as far as academics are concerned, Knott County is falling farther behind in that area as well. I have hope that things will get turned around here and that the people in charge have the kid's best intrest in mind when making decisions, but it does not always work out that way, especially when politics are involved. Go Pats.....Have a good season......

The Pats will have a good season next year and will be close or just above .500 IMO. I predict that they will be 3rd seed in the district behind Breathitt and Middlesboro. Their line will be a weak spot as it has been and Bobby Owens will most of his running around the outside as he did this year. KCC has some good young players and if they can gain experience and help out the upper-classmen, it could be a good season for the Patriots. Need to get some recievers though, they dropped a lot of passes last year.

There is no longer Fleming Neon or Whitesburg, they are know an Letcher Central

41-40 Lex-Cath

Congrats! Very good win in hostil territory.

Wow, I guess the boys team showed up in the second half for LC.

Belfry 42-14, but it could be closer if the Pirates are overlooking the Jackets and do not come out and take care of business.

With all due respect the Pirates have to get by Middlesboro first, I hope the team is overlooking them as the fans seem to be.

:thumb: enjoy the success while you can, it only comes around once every 7-8 years in Hyden it seems............lol......Just kidding, I think that the Eagles have the right to enjoy their success, and hope they or Middlesboro win the Stata title, but who knows what will happen? I think that if the Eagles come ready to take care of business they win my 2+ touchdowns.

Actually no, because the game will be in Hyden not in "Pond-Creek."

Middlesboro is a very hard place for an opposing team to win, and so is Belfry, simple as that! It does seem that there are more "missed" calls and such at these places, especially in close games, but that is all a part of the advantage. That being said, I do not blame the officials so much because the fans make the atmosphere such that it is hard to call the game even much of the time.

Middlesboro will get a taste of Belfry's home-field "advantage" Friday night IMO. Kind of ironic that they would get a dose of their own medicine as far as that goes. Good luck to both teams and I hope that there are no injuries.

I want the district rep tp play well and I think they will, but it will not be enough IMO. Belfry 32-12

I will support ant team from the district, no matter how arrogant they have been. I look for the Eagles to win 24-12,

:thumb: Should have done in the whole game though, really bad team KCC had.

I don't know, Leslie only lead Knott Central 6-0 at half either last year or the year before, I can not remember, it is about adjustments, conditioning, and most of all the heart of the kids on the field IMO. The coaches do their most important jobs during the week in preparation, not on Friday nights IMO.

This time of year is fun because every team is a contender and thinks they are the best. I am sure the Eagles will have a great season, but how great, who knows. Breathitt will struggle with a tough early schedule, but the tough schedule will prepare them for the playoffs. I do not see them making it to Louisville though, I like Prestonsburg. I will debate the Breathitt vs. Leslie game when it is time.

:thumb:

Breathitt will stay in games by playing solid defense and wise clock management, especially until their injured QB comes back. I look for them to win ugly and lose ugly in the non-district portion of their schedule, and by the time district games role around, they should have found a "nitch" that works, if not, it will be a long season.

I forget his name, but I think he is either a Freshman or Sophmore. The fact that they are running a wishbone-style offense should help as far as him not having to throw the ball as much. The strength of Breathitt is their o-line and defence this year, so, they will have a couple of "squeakers" IMO.

I hear about mid-season for the QB, is that accurate? What drills will they do with him to keep his arm loose?
