I'm sure whitley would have won some games, but I doubt they would have won in 96, 2000, or 2001.

I may give you 96. I was actually at the game at Corbin when Madison southern upset them. One of my oldest memories of high school football. Whitley graduated a crap load of talent of the 95 team that went something like 11-2. I still think they won 8 or 9 games that year, but I remember write ups in the paper thinking Corbin was destined to win it all. That's why we went to watch the spectacle and just like that it was over. Ive been to 8 Corbin games in my life. 7 of them were at home, 6 of those were playoff games and I think 5 of them were losses. I must be bad luck for Corbin nicker:

As for 00 and 01, no chance. Whitley all day. Corbin did have good years in both of those, but I remember more about those two years than any other in history. I should. They were my junior and senior years.

In 00, the only regular season game we lost was Rock by a couple of touchdowns. If not for Highlands there's a good chance Rock would have won the 3A title. Rock shut out 7 teams that year, put up 80 points in a single game, 70 and 60 in another if im not mistaken and killed every EKY team they played except us and another one loss team, Sheldon Clark. Finished 13-1. We lost to Sheldon Clark in the second round on the road who lost to Rock by 1 in the region championship. I remember Corbin losing 3 or 4 games, didn't even win there district, and having a extremely weak schedule, which was around the time everything reclassified and gave Corbin the easiest region in history for the next decade. I think Corbin made it all the way to semis that year before they played somebody good and got crushed. I was at the game, but cannot remember who it was. Glasgow maybe?

In 01 there is even a wider gap. We did lose to a bad Ryle team on a fluke play and screwed up punt, but had 5 or 6 starters out sick, including Lawson, or he may have played sick or injured, my memory is fuzzy on that. We also had a 320 pound punter that game who decided to run the ball every time it was snapped to him. Other than that we did not lose until Scott County in the playoffs. Had Brian Lawson not went down early in the game, we would have won that one too. Didn't have a backup that ever played a varsity down after Brian. Corbin had a good team that year as well. Lost one or may have even went undefeated, I cant remember for sure, but I know they lost in the first round. Only thing is, we beat Pburg that year who made it to the 2A state final, while Corbin didn't even win a playoff game. Didn't Corbin struggle with South some that year as well? I think they beat them pretty good, maybe 3 or 4 tds, but seems like it was close for a half or 3 quarters. We were putting frosh in during the first quarter of that one and taking knees out of mercy. I remember vividly we beat North and South both by a score of 49-0. Could have been 99-0 at the half. It was embarrassing. It was like a perfect storm for Corbin that year. Almost every team they played had like there worst teams in school history. Bell was even awful that year.


All in all, ill give you 96, but to be honest, I never said Whitley would win them all just that they would have dominated the same way Corbin would have up to that point and from a few years later. 02 would have went to Corbin, but if you give us both Lawsons back and id take Whitley. I think 03 threw 05 would have been pretty close. Both teams were nothing special in those days. 06 and 07 Corbin easy. 08 and 09 for Whitley, 10, 11, and 12 may have been close games, and Corbin in 13 and 14.

I still think the series would have been something like 30-15 for Corbin.

That means 15-15 since 85 which is why the game should have been played every year. Would have been a hell of a rivalry since 90.
