Craziest Atmosphere.

bulldogfan Wrote:This may not be the best game but it was the best hs football game I ever saw. Breathitt County at Lawrence County 1997. Breathitt was 45-o over three years and coming off two straight 2A championships. Breathitt came to Lawrence County for the regional championship on this odd year. The crowd was crazy. Lawrence County had just dropped down from 3A where they could never get past Highland. Lawrence County had the best mixed offense between run and pass. Also, Philip Ratliff at defense came with a sheme to pressure Breathitt and challenge their recievers at the line. It paid off and Lawrence won. However, the emotional victory caused them to be flat the next week at Bourbon Co. Chuke William, may he rest in peace, lost his best chance for a state championship that year. Many players on that team went on to play in college 1A ball. The goalposts were torn down and Chuke solidified himself as a prolific offensive coach

Agreed. What a great post. It was crazy that night. High school football at its best!!:biggrin:
