Your logic is flawed. For example according to Phil Steel Kentucky's SOS is 9th in the country while the university of Alabama's is 40th. It matters what you do in those games. Who cares who is ranked 9th or10th preseason anyway. Personally I believe that Russell County still has the talent and the heart to be a top five team in the state. Am I looking at things through red and navy colored glasses? YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT! You will see things in Purple and Gold and that is the way it should be. We will watch stats all year from Barbourville and Russell Springs, we will see how our common opponents and opponents of common opponents perform in hopes of getting an idea of how the game in October might turn out. But I know already how it will turn out.....about 110 of Kentucky's finest young men will fight with everything they have to win a game and will bring pride to their schools, parents, and communities win or lose. There will be much more on the line that night then who is ninth or tenth. I look forward to that game and to the challenges that lie ahead in the playoffs but I want to savor every moment of the journey on the way! The wait is over....its Game week baby! Go Lakers!
