My thoughts have changed a little bit about district 7, however, my thoughts on district 8 hasnt.

For district 7, I believe Madison Southern, North Laurel, and Pulaski County are locks for a playoff spot. That last spot is still up for grabs. IMO, all three teams left are pretty even, and its going to be really hard to guess at what team will grab that four spot.

As for district 8, I believe Harlan County is still the favorites. Whitley appears to be better than Perry, and it wouldn't susrpsie me a bit to see Perry throw a wrinkle in things and knock off either of the two. I expect Letcher to bring up the rear while there having a rebuilding year.

This is an even year, so district 8 has the oppertunity to host the regional final.

Games to watch out for:

District 7
October 12th- North Laurel @ Madison Southern
This could be for your district championship. Both teams have struggled in years past, but seem to be at the top of the district, along with Pulaski County to capture the crown.

October 5th- Pulaski County @ Madison Southern
Like the game above, this could very well be for the district championship, should North fall to both teams. Madison Southern having both top contenders at home, could seal the deal for them.

September 27th- Pulaski County @ North Laurel
This could mean a home playoff game for these two. Chances are a first round game at home will be a big deal because going on the road to a district 8 team could mean an early exit.

October 5th- South Laurel @ Lincoln County
This could be a do or die game for a 4 seed. IMO, could be the most important game of the year for both schools.


District 8
October 12th- Whitley County @ Harlan County
This may be a district championship game, and should be a good one at that. Both teams come in pretty even with the same game plan....run the ball. As long as Perry doesnt have anything to say about the whole district championship thing...

October 19th- Harlan County @ Perry County
Going to Perry is no easy task. Your usually down two TD's when you step off the bus, and Pray and company will have there minds set on ruining Harlan County's year after HC diminished there hopes of a district title last year.

October 5th- Perry County @ Whitley County
In both teams district opener, a loss will not due. This game could either catapult one team or completely destroy anothers chances at a home playoff game. In a 4 teams district, games count just as much as they do in a 6 or 7 team district. Huge matchup in this one.



My Predictions

District 7
1. Madison Southern
2. North Laurel
3. Pulaski County
4. South Laurel

District 8
1. Harlan County
2. Whitley County
3. Perry County Central
4. Letcher County Central

If thats the case, then the playoffs would go as followed...

4. Letcher County Central @ 1. Madison Southern
3. Pulaski County @ 2. Whitley County

4. South Laurel @ 1. Harlan County
3. Perry County Central @ 2. North Laurel

My prediction....

Madison Southern over Letcher County Central
Whitley County over Pulaski County
Perry County Central over North Laurel
Harlan County over South Laurel


Semis
2. Whitley County @ 1. Madison Southern
3. Perry County Central @ 1. Harlan County

My prediction....

Whitley County over Madison Southern
Harlan County over Perry County Central

Region Championship
2. Whitley County @ 1. Harlan County

Whitley returns to Harlan County for the regional final, after losing to HC in the regular season.

My Prediction.....


Wait and see.....:biggrin:
