I'd take Trinity or at least call it a pick-em game against any NAIA team in KY. Trinity has 10 or 12 guys who will play high level D1 football. Those kids are better right now than anyone playing NAIA.

This would be similar to a team like Oak Hill playing against Union College in basketball. Without a doubt Oak Hill would embarrass Union, or the Cumberlands. Pikeville may play with them but I doubt it.

Can not compare basketball to football. The physical difference in football far out ways the physical difference in basketball. Have you ever been to an NAIA college football game? There is a lot of D1 talent on the field every Saturday. Georgetown, Cumberlands, Lindsey Wilson, and Pikeville would absolutely CRUSH Trinity. The physical strength of the MEN in 2nd, 3rd or 4th year of college would be a world apart from KIDS in high school. An 18-19 high school player may be strong but nothing compared to a 21-24 old man. Plus the fact that no one on those college teams plays both sides of the ball. They work on one position, with a position coach, every day of their career. This allows the college team to remain fresh for 4 quarters. Their bodies are more mature and just bigger, stronger and faster than the high schoolers.
Trinity playing a college team... ANY college team... would be like a very good high school team, say Trinity, playing a high school JV team.
Trinity is an outstanding high school team but, let's be realistic, they are a HIGH SCHOOL team.
