Ligaments do not heal on their own.

Wow, misread the title. I thought it said 32-6

Many have said the game was pretty even..what made the score so lopsided?

Good win Rebs. After a tough loss to Highlands and then a rematch of last year's AAAA title game, what does BC really need to improve on? Just continue to develop the young guys?

Big win! Pope is an absolute hoss. Two wins in a row over FC after not winning since '99.

Who returned/improved etc that will make a difference over last years NCHS win? Serious question, not talking trash.

We obviously wont agree on this, but Ill make my points and leave it at that. If we dont see the same thing, then thats fine. My point is Lewis Co could not move the ball consistently all night. When they scored it would be a 65 yard run or a 55 yard pass... with blown coverage. Blown coverage can be stated as a reason for the loss because its not as if it was a great pass after a receiver beat the defender... it was no defender within 15 yards of the ball. It was like the D forgot what scheme they were running...numerous times Im not taking away a win from the Lions or saying they didnt give it their all... its obvious they did or they wouldnt have won. But I also wont give way on my stance that Nicholas had this game and should have won it... terrible defensive plays, giving up HUGE passing/running plays and then not taking care of the ball at the end of the game blew it. If we dont see the same way, again, that is fine. Congratulations to you on the win. EDIT: And I was not saying that the ball fell into a Lewis Co player's hands by some sort of magic that prevented the Jackets from winning... it literally did fall into his hands. Helmet to ball contact... ball popped out and was directly in the guy's chest.

I didnt blame the other team... I blamed our team. And nothing I do or say has any effect on the team since I dont coach or play. EDIT: And really, its not the kids' fault. Im not going to blame a bunch of 16 and 17 year olds, they played hard.

No, they arent in our district.

And generally it is derogatory. It's a snobby rich guy.

It was a joke

Its something off the Mighty Ducks

They were down 30-19 with about 3:10 left. We simply blew this one. Lewis Co couldnt sustain a drive all night. The only way they moved the ball were big plays. Nicholas up 12-0 with :5 to go in the first half... TD pass called back. Remains 12-0 at half. Caleb Pope runs back the opening kick in the 2nd half, missed 2 pt conversion, 18-0 Jackets. Then, the big plays started. One long pass play and one long run makes it 18-12. Nicholas and Lewis trade scores (Lewis again scoring on a long run), 24-19. Nicholas gets a TO and quickly punches it in to make it 30-19 with about 3:10 left. Next Lewis County dirve, blown coverage again and the Lions score on about a 50 yard pass. Two or three plays into Nicholas' next drive, and about 1:30 left on the clock, the ball squirts out and falls directly into a Lewis Co player's hands, who runs it back 40 yards for the game winning TD. Terrible loss for the Jackets. We should be 1-0.

Same as me

Arkansas has atleast 7 classes

Color me ignorant. Did Coach Hilton resign?

I can only speak for myself. I didnt predict a blow out. I had Boyle by 10, pulling away in the 2nd half. But I definitely felt last week that if Bell had won, they would have won state as well. I have felt that way for the last three years leading up to that game. We'll just have to agree to disagree.

My thought process is this... everyone has kept saying that whoever wins between Boyle and Bell will win the title. For three straight years now the winner of that game has won the 4a state title. To me, that gives validity to all of the statements. It didnt matter if it was Bullit East, Lone Oak or ACS... all three schools fell to the winners of the Boyle/Bell game.

People have been saying for the last 3 years that the 4A semi-final from the east was the real state championship... and for 3 years the winner of that game has won the title. So, the statements werent that incorrect.

Wow! Great win Boyle County!

Well, here's to hoping the Rebs win

I honestly know nothing about Bell's offense this year. We know that Boyle's run defense is stout... but the pass defense has some chinks in the armor. How effective is Bell's pass game?

Im afraid after the Lex Cath performance that the score will be something like that. I hope not.

Hopefully the defensive lapses will be gone next Friday and the Rebels will be focused for Bell.
