Big 4th quarter comeback for the Dragons. They have a little athlete at quarterback who can sling it to some athletes. Fern Creek's pass defense was exposed. It's either a cover 2 shell whose only adjustment was to go man-to-man. Since Doss has athletes that can match up with Fern Creek, the Tigers had issues covering. But it took Doss 2.5 quarters to realize they couldn't run on Fern Creek's stout DL.

BluegrassPreps Class 5A Football Rankings (10/2) Discussion
UKgrad2005 replied to Ram's topic in KY Football (High School)
BC has lost to two decent teams and has beaten 4 teams with a combined record of 8-18. Their best win was the first week of the season when they Louisville Holy Cross 7-0. Not sure I would call that worthy of being ranked top 10 in 5A. -

The regular kicker is playing a soccer match tonight at Barren County and Christian decided to give it a try. She's one of state's top goal scorers. -

Marion County/Nelson County Updates
UKgrad2005 replied to swamprat's topic in KY Football (High School)
Egli left Nelson Co. football in very poor shape. The kids haven't been coached in years, particularly on defense. There was a shell of a weight-lifting program going on, too. Egli didn't give to feeder middle school programs the needed support. It's going to take some time to get the ship righted but I know the new coaches will care about the kids and work hard to get things corrected. But there are very few seniors so a lot of young kids are playing. They just need to trust the staff and keep working hard. -
BE is slow compared to the teams they have had the last couple years. Their sophomore class is definitely their best group. There just isn't much healthy, talented depth in the junior and senior classes this season. Each of the two older groups has some solid players, just not enough, especially to withstand the injuries.
-
This game is for the #2 seed.
-
Health status is a little better. The main thing is that the district schedule is easier than the non-district schedule.
-
Both teams lost 3 fumbles. BC had inflated stats due to their weak early season schedule.
-
Central couldn't handle the constant blitzing.

4A #8 Shelby County vs. 5A Bullitt East
UKgrad2005 replied to DragonFire's topic in KY Football (High School)
Polson chose not to play because of his shoulder injury, not because of the coaches. He wants to play but can't afford to injure his shoulder like that again. The OL who chose not to play never enjoyed playing football but were forced to play growing up and finally said they weren't playing anymore. At most schools, talent is cyclical. Two years ago, BE had a pretty good senior class, hence why they made it to the Regional final. Last year, they had a decent senior class but were missing a couple pieces to make a playoff push. This year, the senior class is fairly small; only 8 of them really contribute. The junior and sophomore classes combined are pretty solid though. And to help you out with facts, Kessler played last week and took some hits on that shoulder (just a deep bone bruise). Shelby County will be a tough matchup but I think things will start turnaround in district play.- 18 replies

4A #8 Shelby County vs. 5A Bullitt East
UKgrad2005 replied to DragonFire's topic in KY Football (High School)
Polson was cleared to play but not allowed to play. His shoulder injury was pretty bad. The other varsity QB last year, Pierce Kelly, graduated. The kid expected to start this year, JV starter last year, was kicked off the team along with the freshman team QB. Also, 2 players who got some OL starts last year and would have started this year decided not to play. Then there have been injuries to the QBs (they are back now) and several other players have made it a tough season so far. There are a couple more starters who were injured last week that will probably sit out this week as they haven't practiced at all. It has just been a rough season but luckily BE isn't in a tough district, just a big one where they will have to win multiple games. I think they can do it if they get healthy. The scheme is not getting kids hurt. Football is a contact sport and sometimes injuries occur. Plus, BE played a freshman on the OL last year because the player who was going to start tore his ACL prior to the season, plus that freshman was pretty good and would have received varsity reps regardless. I will finish with this: anytime, you lose a bunch of starters over a two-year period then play a tough schedule, there are going to be growing pains, especially, when you have to deal with a bunch of injuries.- 18 replies

It should be battle of inexperience from what it sounds like. You never know what will happen in games like this one. -
Johnson Central Kicker Kicks 52 Yard Field Goal
UKgrad2005 replied to Wireman's topic in KY Football (High School)
Nothing controversial about it. It was a free kick/fair catch kick, whatever you want to call it. -
A lot of fresh faces for BE this year. It will help when 3 starters return for BE this week against Collins.
