[BoyleCounty]

Boyle County is the reigning champs. Alot of people would assume that they are the favorite until they lose this year, if they do lose. Right now, Bell County looks like a preseason favorite. They do indeed, return alot of weapons. However, Boyle County returns a great defense. In fact, a defense that stalled Bell County's offense last year. A defense that took them to the championship. A defense that tightened up in the 2nd half to beat Lone Oak in the state championship. This defense is going to be strong and I mean real strong. It will certainly be better than last years defense. However, Boyle County does have some key replacements on offense that need to be taken care of. But as Hatz said, they simply reload, both Bell County and Boyle County. IMO, I believe that Devan Hale is going to shine at quarterback this coming season. Lamar Dawson is going to be a monster on both sides of the ball.

For right now I'm not going to make a bold prediction. I'll just say that whoever wins the Bell County vs. Boyle County game is going to have their hands full against Lone Oak. :Thumbs:
