It does seem comical to those who didn’t watch these two play in the playoffs last year. Lawrence County has improved on both sides of the ball in the past two seasons and have a very good underclassman group to add to the mix as well. They will be sound defensively with plenty of talent offensively. It will be a battle but Lawrence has closed the gap and is very capable of winning this matchup. I get the whole concept “you’re not the favorite until you beat the favorite” but I believe Lawrence was the better “ team” last season. Belfry just happened to have the best player and Mr. Football. That made the whole difference.

What did LC lose?

LCs young guys are very talented, not as talented as Belfrys class but I think LCs young guys fit their system better.

Belfrys MS ran a different system than the HS for the first time ever. Their personal was more suited to a more open offense. The HS won’t change to that.
