Corbin in my mind is the favorite. They have played a better schedule than us as WKY football this year has not been as good as it usually is. Corbin is also more battle tested in tight games. The Cards young line and offense in generally has been well ahead of schedule and they should score enough to win. Its the Cards defense that has thus far been the area of concern and unless they play better than they have so far this year they give us good reason to be concerned. Looking over the IMTU grading system results, the run defense has graded out below 80% twice. The Cards pass defense has been pretty solid but has not seen a great passing team so far. Even though Corbin is the favorite I will be surprised if Corbin wins. Mayfield seems to always find that Mayfield Magic and Cliff Dew will find it for the Cards in a tight win for the Cards

Corbin is battle tested for sure, and that should give them a chance to battle in the trenches and win this one, but Mayfield is explosive. This should be a great matchup.
