As for SV, I just think that the poster was making a comparison, in an attempt to boost EC by showing that EC beat Raceland worse than SV. But that is not relevant here, and in any event, SV is much better than EC on most nights. SV just hasn't played as well as they can the last few weeks.

That statement proves the previous sentence to be to be wrong. Not playing well and not being as good as some think are two entirely different things.

[OMG]

The point was that alot of people were going to get on here calling Elliott County overrated. You implied it earlier. It is relevant due to the number of 15th region posters on here. Elliott County beat Raceland at Raceland with ease. It was not even as close as the score. The statement was made because they both played the same team recently on that teams home court. One struggled for a win and one blew that team out of the gym.

Now Elliott County is not a great team. If Elliott County has a bad shooting night and a team can be physical enough to handle their defesive pressure then they are very vulenrable.

There are no great teams in the 16th or 15th regions. Elliott County, as is SV, are good teams in very weak regions.

that was my whole point...they are good teams in weak regions, but all elliott plays is the weak teams in their region, therefore, its very decieving as to how good they really are because they do not play anyone that test them, and the ones they have that could test have beat them, so a top ten team is not even close to an accurate ranking of elliott county

Well everybody I have seen EC and SV PLAY. They both play in VERY WEEK regions. Basketball in 15th and 16th regions are way down. Nether of these two teams are a top 20.... PAINTSVILLE IS probably the best team in the 15th or the 16th region, and they are NOT A TOP 20 TEAM .... Not bashing anybody just call it like I see it. Good luck to all these teams in regions.

I figured Mason by around 15..but 29 points? Sure says alot to me! Top 10....I say NO WAY! That is what happens and the difference when you look at the other top teams in the state! Elliott beats up on a VERY WEAK 16th Region and never hardly played out of the region and beats teams like 134-60 and then when they play a good team, look what happens! Congrats Mason!

Sounds like a typical 15th region or eastern ky team

[sidelinecoach]

your right exactly, i dont know what the point was other than that....

It is simple, people were asking Is Elliott that bad or Mason that good. The poster was just trying to give you info so you could decide for yourself!

And your point is?????? Simply stated: Raceland isn't very good and SV played a bad game! So what? I am certainly no SV fan! But if you think that EC would blow out SV I would have to disagree. It wouldn't hurt my feelings if they did, but SV is much better than what you must think. But it won't bother me if they continue to play bad! And as for EC, it won't bother me if they win their region!

[Another Asssist]

No do not think EC would blow out SV, if the teams played 10 time it would probably be split 5 each.

[UnderArmour24]

No do not think EC would blow out SV, if the teams played 10 time it would probably be split 5 each.

I agree.

what exactly is that suppose to mean?

Sounds to me he's implying that there are no really good teams in eastern ky. He may be right. 14, 15, and 16th region's are really down this year and have been for a while. JBS, Hazard, Shelby Valley, Paintsville and Elliott Co. are pretty good country teams that have some kids that play in these regions that can reall shoot the ball. Most people in the central and western parts of the state group these regions as not being able to compete with the larger schools. Now after saying this I'd like for some of the teams that think they're all that good to come into these mountains and play a few games then they would have a reality check of what mountain basketball is all about. I think they really think these regions are inferior.
