No Simon Kenton? They gave the win to Corbin! SK could beat over 15 of them teams!

Im going to disagree with Simon Kenton giving the win to Corbin...I watched it, Simon Kenton had there chances but they or anyone aint going to give anyone anthing....I would like to see 100 games between the two teams and I'll be honest Simon Kenton was at home....No excuses, they lost..Corbin won. I will agree with you though, Simon Kenton needs to be in this poll, they are a very good football team!

You've got a bad case of big school envy, JP. I am starting to think that you actually believe Pikeville could take Trinity.

[jetpilot]

I was joking Hoot but Pikeville could beat most of the teams in all classes this year.

[Colonelfan72]

If I remember correctly SK scored 1 touchdown in the second half ,believe Corbin scored 3 times.

[Hoot Gibson]

So could Johnson Central, but that is true every year. There are some very bad teams with very bad coaches in every class and they outnumber the well-coached good teams.

Paintsville leads Johnson Central in their all-time series by a wide margin but that was the result of better coaching. Johnson Central did not suddenly begin enrolling better athletes, they just stopped playing politics with their football program because they got tired of losing to a much smaller 1A school more often than they won. As long as Johnson Central is well coached, I doubt that Paintsville would be win 1 in 10 games with Johnson Central. Johnson County's middle school has always dominated Paintsville in football, even when Paintsville was still winning most of the games at the high school level.

We should just agree to disagree. Pikeville's schedule is not going to afford the Panthers the chance to prove your case and unless Pikeville struggles against some 1A team in the playoffs, which seems unlikely, I won't be able to tell you that I told you so either.

We do disagree lol...Since installing a full-time QB Pikeville is 7-0 with 6 running clocks and a 35 point win against mostly highly ranked teams. They are ranked above all but a small handful of teams in all the polls. Only a very few people who view football teams through the lens of how many students their school has don't understand that great small school teams can beat anyone on a given night and most teams on most nights.

Most people intuitively understand that a well coached football team drawing from a large pool of talent will almost always be better than a well coached football team drawing from a small pool of talent. Roster size does not compensate for a small pool of talent. Pikeville has played two good football teams that have maybe a 25 percent chance of winning a 4A or 5A state title and lost both of those games. Pikeville would have won its last 7 games, regardless of who had been the quarterback. Corbin and Covington Catholic have improved over the course of this season as much as Pikeville has.

Sorry, but there will be a nice parting gift...

I agree.  I think Corbin and Pikeville could whoop most teams in the state with the exception of maybe the one at the very top of 5A and a few at the very top of 6A.   Corbin and Pikeville are both really, really good football teams.

Hoot dishing out some more probability and class snobbery and Jet embracing RPI and Calprep like mother's milk and honey.  Bottomline is Pikeville's a very good football team that will likely win another state title. Like Corbin, I think they could beat all but maybe one 5A team a a few top 6A's. I believe both are top 10 or top 15 teams, regardless of class.

Haha I’m not in love with RPI. Just watch it to see where playoff games will be.
Not in love with Calpreps either, just found it to be way more reliable than humans.

[Hound05]

A 1 point victory on a neutral field means you’d have better luck deciding the winner by calling miss Cleo and giving her your credit card info. Didn’t CalPreps say pikeville was gonna win the first game too? Either way, Im with ya jet. I think pikeville could beat a lot of teams in several classes, just not Corbin?

[jetpilot]

Pikeville would drill Corbin if they played at Pikeville this Friday.

[Old School Hound]

Pikeville would drill Corbin if they played at Pikeville this Friday.

I don't know.  If Pikeville has improved a lot more than Corbin has improved since week one, I would agree with you. But Corbin is a much better team as well. I certainly think Pikeville would be a helluva challenge for Corbin over in Pikeville. Who would win?  I think either could.  I do believe that Corbin and Pikeville are the two best teams south of Lexington(not counting the team over in Danville). I give Corbin the nod because of the head to head meeting but I believe those two are better than 95% of the teams in the state.

[Bull got out!]

Pikeville would drill Corbin if they played at Pikeville this Friday.

Pikeville doesn’t need a loss before the playoff run Jett.

[Bull got out!]

Pikeville would have to call the fire department to put out the flames on Kid Elams arm lol.

[Old School Hound]

I think if my life depended on correctly predicting the outcome of a Corbin -Pikeville rematch, I would probably go with Pikeville if the game was there, Corbin if the game was here, and if it was at a neutral site, I would defer to the class snob, Hoot. :)
