It may become bulletin board material but I'm still going to predict wins and losses. I believe the boys will be good enough to back me up (I will put the wins in bold font)

Aug 26, 16 Bourbon County @ Danville
(Look out for #21 for Bourbon, he is a heck of a player and will only be a Junior this year. Yikes! )
Sep 2, 16 South Laurel home
Sep 9, 16 Garrard County home
(This is a toss-up for me but they return Foley. The dual threat QB is gone but I reserve the right to amend my answer once I determine how much of that gargantuan offense line returned. I believe they only had 7 Seniors to graduate. Thankfully the QB and McCollum were two of them)
Sep 16, 16 Pulaski County away
(I will still mark this as a loss. However, the QB graduated as well as their 2nd and 3rd leading rushers, their 2nd & 3rd leading receiver, their kicker, as well as their two leading tacklers. Their ridiculously good #1 receiver is returning and he will be the best player on the field so I mark this as a loss.)
Sep 23, 16 [B]Somerset home
(This was the most heartbreaking regular season game for me in that it was a 1 point loss. However, Somerset's QB has graduated, Rock should have won that game last year, and Rock returns essentially everyone. Therefore, I take Rock for the win.)[/B]
Sep 30, 16 Wayne County home
(I think that Rockcastle County matched up well with a highly talented Wayne County team last season and will do so again this season. I think WC should be the favorite but this game is at Rock and Rock will walk away with a close win.)
Oct 7, 16 Russell County away
Oct 14, 16 Clay County away
Oct 21, 16 Knox Central home
(My heart says yes but my head says no. Knox probably wins again. )
Oct 28, 16 Lincoln County away

With me being relatively conservative, I give them a 7-3 record. I dug through and cannot fathom a record worse than 6-4. I honestly do not believe that there is a "for-sure-loss" on the schedule anywhere. If the line has beefed up and everyone is 100% healthy, (Was Rock ever at full-strength last season?) I truly believe Rock can win District and Region.

No. Somerset returns everyone with the exception of said quarterback. The game was played in a mud bowl which favored Rock and Rock STILL lost. Had the Jumpers been granted a dry night (I know its football and it is played in all types of weather conditions) they would have likely scored at will against Rock who struggled to defend the pass. Considering this a for sure win is, at the very least, ridiculous.
