Boyle County vs. Corbin (3A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP)
killbilly usmc Wrote:Doesn't bother me but I keep hearing how only teams that don't claim mythical titles are the ones that don't have any to claim. Makes no since. Every team could claim a mythical title if they wanted, since there is no such standard to go by. I don't blame a school for claiming the titles that the courier journal named champions, cause yes its kinda like the old college champions, but with Corbin the problem is that yall want to claim 1955, since the courier journal named y'all champs which is reasonable, but then the same people want to claim 1939 when the courier journal named Paducah champs that year. You can't have it both ways and say that we are champs in 55 cause the CJ said so, but we are the champs in 39 even though the same source says you wasn't. I know Caldwell, and Mayfield both had unbeaten teams prior to 36 when CJ started naming champs. So there is no source to dispute either school if they wanted to choose to claim a mythical title, but neither school claims a mythical title, also Paducah does not even claim 39 as a title even though the CJ says they was, so the whole argument that only fans of teams without a CJ title are the ones that says they don't count goes out the window. Like I said Paducah don't claim the one CJ says they have. Ashland had a lot of great teams prior to 36, but many schools could claim mythical titles if they wanted to crown themselves, but most don't. The team that I said that was unscored on was Mayfield in 1920. They finished 8-0-1 with the tie being a College from TN. They outscored opponents 461-7 on the season. The 7 They gave up was in that tie game. So they went 8-0 against high school opponents scoring 454-0, and no-one considers them a champion, so enough of the every one claims one that can. Another piece of history to that year is its the last year, they didn't play Paducah. Paducah refused to play since they where beaten 85-6 the previous year, and Mayfield returned the whole team. 7 from the 20 team went, and played college ball the next year.

Did Corbin ever beat any college teams?
