[Granny Bear]

I hope we absolutely crush the Black Bears. I love Granny as much as any, but what a statement it would be to just slash through Harlan County AND Southwestern over the next two.

BUT - it's not gonna happen. Larkey is a pretty good coach, Harlan County has some hosscats, and the Pirates will have big heads next week. I think we can/will win, but not by much.

I have a great deal of respect for Tom Larkey. I believe that he can and will get as much out of this team as anyone!! I understand your statement about crushing the Bears; because I want to crush the Pirates!!

Since when did you don the eyepatch???? Hush!!!

Belfry 24
Harland County 14

If Belfry keeps a level head and does not look past the Black Bears then we should come out with a win. This is a really good Harland County team that loves to get physical just like Belfry. Forget last week and focus on this team if you want to get a W.

That's the key, IMO. One game at a time. The Black Bears have been entirely focused on the Pirates since Friday night's game was over.

I don't know about that, Coach seems to have a way of seeing it happening and being like "Oh yeah, you think you're good?" ... then throwing them out there and letting reality kick them in the face.

I really think this may have happened last week. IMO Henry Clay gave Belfry NO respect and as a result was not prepared, even with the efforts of their coaching staff!! The Pirates knocked them on their heels early, and they could never recover.


I believe the Bears can win this game, but like the Pirates of last week, they must remain focused, and take one play at a time!! In any event, I am so excited to visit the CAM and spend some time with one of the most passionate fan bases I have ever seen!!!

So here's to a great game between two great mountain teams; and I PRAY it's an injury free contest!!
