This should be a good teat for both teams. Maynard is no stranger to Coah Mac and company. Pikeville is a little less balanced this season, but I dont think its because they cant be, they simply havet had to be. Estep has yet to be called upon to make the big play and Charles hasnt had a game that he has taken more than 10 or 12 lass attempts of Im not mistaken. This is a different Russell team as well. Still run based, but with a different look and faster tempo. It should be a good game for the first little while, maybe even into the 4th. But something happens to Pikeville at home. Its unlike any homefield advantage I have ever seen. Its not the officiating, its not the fans, and its made no difference how good or bad Pikeville is. Pikeville is hard to beat at home. Thats why I think they win by what would SEEM, to be a large margin but the game will be much closer than it appears. Not having Conley is another issue. But if Im Maynard and nothing is on the line in this game, I sit em.
