1st I know both coaches wanted week 6 open before district play. As for Wburg when week 4 wasn't able to fill decisions had to be made. Wburg is already playing 3 5A schools and maybe the best 3A school in the state. Somerset has a very good physical football team that I believe Wburg would play close to or possible even beat but Wburg felt it wasn't in the best interest of his team to take on another big challenge.

I know that Somerset would rather have 10 games than have the week before the district open. If Williamsburg will play I can guarantee you Somerset will. I understand Williamsburg would like to have that week open as well. But really, how much are the Yellow Jackets worried about Campbellsville, Lynn Camp, Berea and Pineville this season? All of those games will be running clock games or close to it. I just think the game makes a lot of sense for both teams. The style of play that each would see in the other team would be a big help for the playoffs.
