Much closer than I expected.
I wish Pikeville could have won this game.....but I agree....very close game
Seemed like a good one. Tough loss for Pikeville. Good win for Georgetown.
Does anyone know if James Storts got to play any in this game.
sounds like it was a great game, tough loss for the bears
heres what the pikeville college website said about the game:

Saturday, October 29, 2005Tigers hold off Bears, 21-19 PIKEVILLE, Ky. – A blocked field goal early in the second period eventually cost No. 12 Pikeville College an opportunity to tie No. 7 Georgetown College in a 21-19 loss Saturday afternoon.

The block, by Kenya Williams, kept Pikeville behind 7-6 in the first half. When the Bears scored again to pull within 14-12, the decision was made to go for two late in the first half. That pass was knocked down and kept Pikeville behind by two; when the Tigers scored in the third period, the lead was beyond one possession at nine points, meaning a late touchdown only brought the Bears within two instead of giving it an opportunity to tie.

The loss drops Pikeville to 5-2, 1-2 in the Mid-South Conference East Division. Their two losses, to a pair of Top 10 teams, were by a total of three points. Georgetown, 6-2 overall, is 3-0 in the MSC East.

The loss offset a tremendous outing by a pair of injured Bears. All-American Antwan Marsh, the defending MSC Defensive Player of the Year, finished with eight tackles, including seven solos, one week after suffering a separated shoulder.

A terrific two-way player, Marsh hauled in four catches for 108 yards and a touchdown.

Sophomore Nathan Moore, a product of Inez, had four solo tackles and an assist in only his second game back from his own separated shoulder.

Georgetown scored first, driving down the field on the opening drive and needing only five plays to cover 70 yards for the score, which came on a 25-yard pass from Jeff Smith to John Keene. Daniel Snodgrass hit the PAT for a 7-0 lead only 1:40 into the game.

The Bears answered early in the second frame when Chip English found Frank Green for a 40-yard score with 12:57 left. But Williams blocked the PAT to keep the Tigers in front 7-6.

That was the first of three touchdown passes for the sophomore English, who finished 24-of-40 for 314 yards.

Each team scored again before recess. Fullback James Brown carried for five yards with 9:49 left, making it 14-6. The Bears answered four minutes later when English found Marsh over the middle, who went up in double coverage and hauled in what would be a 44-yard touchdown pass.

This time the Bears went for two, with English’s pass knocked down to keep the score 14-12, which the teams took to the half.

Each team added one touchdown in the second half. Georgetown’s pass came with 8:36 left in the third, as Smith found tailback Chris Sharrock for a 35-yard score. Snodgrass made it 21-12.

Pikeville scored late, with English hitting Green again, this time from eight yards out with 2:09 to play. Briscoe’s kick drew the Bears within two.

The Bears then tried an onside kick which was recovered by Georgetown, who ran out the clock.

Penalties once again hurt Pikeville. The Bears, second in the country in penalty yards per game at 112.2, were flagged 11 times for 86 yards.

Tailback Calvin Joplin turned in another terrific performance, picking up 111 yards on 22 carries. The senior now has 932 yards with two games remaining, drawing him within 259 yards of Leonard Moore’s school record.

In addition to Marsh, Green had a big day receiving, catching eight for 79 with two scores.

Jeff Smith was 14-of-26 for 149 on the day, one of three Tigers to throw the ball. A balanced receiving corps was led by Daniel Thompson with four catches for 38 and John Keene with four for 31.

On the ground, Brown led the way with 73 yards on 15 carries.

Lamont Sturdivant led the Bears defense with nine tackles, including eight solos. Marsh’s eight followed.

Georgetown got eight tackles from Matt Shansky.

This sucks for the Bears.
I was hoping that they would do great things this season, were off to a fantastic start too.
hey still don't mean things can't happen 2 losses and ur already giving up??? c'mon lindz
Pikeville has lost 2 heartbreakers in a row. In both games, the opposing D's did not know what to do when Pikeville went with a TE set. Can you imagine what the D would do if Pikeville threw to a TE???????
