  1. It would be an extremely big upset.

     

    Bottom-line is this: Despite the tremendous improvements by North, they still have far more questions to answer. The Mustangs have done a remarkable job, turning around a season in which many expected 0 wins. But they will have to do just about everything right to win this one.

     

    That said, there's a reason why upsets happen in HS football - it's HS football....

    North was picked to finish second in the district and could still do that with a win the next two weeks.

    18 seniors last year-- 13 this year- they definitely have the experience to compete late in the season.

  2. North Oldham has not been North Oldham because the have had 5-6 starters out the last 3 games. Elizabethtown was just about 3 starters. It has been a snowball from there. No need to cry about it... injuries are part of the game. Hopefully they will get some players back... except two lost for the season. They need all to win in this district.

  3. Happy for Owensboro but at the same time it is just brutal to think of the disappointment on the other sideline. As said above, the decision to call the quick timeout will haunt forever.

     

    No the time out will not-the hail mary will. time out was called because it was 4th and short. Fg attempts for North Oldham on the year was 0-9. A 4th down play was an option instead of kicking the fg. After debate fg was chosen. So here is the information to set the record straight.

  4. This game was not much fun to watch. Even though the scoring suggests it may have been, but the game just wore on and on and on. Roughly three hours to finish this one.

    The officials were wretched. Sure there may have been some missed calls, but they wouldn't give signals, conferenced too much and didn't hustle IMO.

    Holmes was in control the entire game, even though Bellevue got within a TD in the last minute.

    How about the antics of the Bellevue coach in the second half?

    He ran down to the 10 yard line arguing about a call, threw his hat and the official right there didn't say a word. Then he calls timeout and the officials let him rant and rave on the field for the entire timeout and he runs and throws his hat again. I would have been embarrassed if I were a Bellevue fan seeing that display. It was something you would see at a peewee football game.

    Bellevue didn't lie down and kept fighting and they have some decent players.

    Scruggs is really good but looked like he was gassed.

    Holmes was sloppy but probably expected with all the young players logging major minutes. I was told they were missing 6 starters and most if not all play both ways.

    First off all Bellevue coach Johnny Poynter is one of the good guys and on top of that he is a great coach. If he did what you said it must have been peewee officiating on a Friday night. What he and his staff have done with one of the smaller enrollments in 1 a is amazing. They are playing the big boys and they are competing. Give him the kids and more numbers and 4a Holmes would have been knocked off. Any true football person can see that.
  5. What has happened to North Oldham? Injuries? Benefit of early soft schedule?

    North Oldham had 9 starters out of the game. Would have had 11 but got two back this week. So considering the North Oldham squad gave a great effort. Early season was pretty tough lost two to AcL's in South and OC game. Lost starting fullback in July to ACL. 5 were suspended for violating team rules last week. So again to keep it close against a good Bardstown team, shows what this team COULDA BEEN. Oh by the way some of those were two way starters? Just one of those years I guess!!
