1A- pikeville and Williamsburg. One of those two will be in the championship game. Idk if they can beat Mayfield, but it is possible.

2A- Prestonsburg has an excellent QB and a big line to play with. Middlesboro will make noise also, but won't win state. IMO DeSales has that one all wrapped up.

3A- Belfry has the best shot. I don't tnink Corbin or Bell will win state, but they will play spoiler.

4A- Johnson Central could make it far but it would take a total team effort. Another name to throw in this is Knox Central. Don't think I'm saying this because I'm biased. I don't think Knox will win state, but I do think they could play spoiler. (Boyle).

5A- Pulaski has the best shot in 5A to beat Bowling Green. Best team in the mountains. Also don't forget about North. If they win their district, which is very possible, then they Will make lots of noise in the playoffs. This Notth squad is very talented. They just struggle to put the pieces together. Also throw in Harlan if they rally.

6A- no.

Whether or not a mountain squad wins state, I think it is very easy to see that the mountains will have a HUGE impact on the state playoffs this year. Except for 6A, that is. It's going to be extremely fun watching it all unfold in the coming weeks. Good luck to all teams.
