Ok no excuses here now... The refs were horrible on both sides I think we both can agree on that... Only fumble was Pikeville that was returned for a td... Pittman pretty much scored all of our tds... Pikevilles speed is amazing and after tonight I think pikeville could beat williamsburg and I hope they do I'm eating my crow... This game honestly could have gone either way if our qb wouldn't have screwed us up with 3 mins to go on the 20 yard line and after the fumble it would have been a field goal game... I'm not saying we should have won by no means Pikeville is the real deal... If this was played 10 times we may win 3 or 4... I wish Pikeville luck you all had some amazing fans had the cance to interact with some of you it was still a fun game especially at the end... I think Middlesboro can still be a contender with a few changes specifically at qb... After tonight I heard Pittman might be playing qb here soon if things dont change... #13 is really good for Pikeville by the way I like that kid... Wish Pugh could have played though so we could have gotten a full measuring stick on our team... I still say Middlesboro can hang with any team in the mountains and has a shot at state with a few adjustments and honestly I think Pikeville brings it home this year in 1A... Congrats Panthers

I will give credit where it is due. You manned up and bellied up to the table for your serving of crow. I'm impressed. Thanks for the kind words about our kids. I wasn't there but I know how classy many of the fans are in Middlesboro. Good luck the rest of the way.
