Bluegrassrivals

Both have advanced to the NAIA playoffs. Campbellsville winning the Mid-South West and LWC receiving an at-large bid.

G-town won the Mid-South East however wasn't ranked in the top 20 which is a NAIA playoff pre-requisite ( dislike it or not ) to make the cut!

Here our the 1st round pairings...

Good luck to both teams and thanks for representing Kentucky! :Thumbs:

Very, very tough match up for the Blue Raiders. Grand View is a very good football team, they are going to have to play very well to win. Campbellsville has a much more winnable game.

Yep I believe Grand View won it all a couple of years ago.

They did in 2013, they actually defeated Cumberlands during John Bland's last season there. GV is a fairly new program, probably as old as LWC's program.

Congrats to both teams.
