Listen, as posters, we both love our teams but I can't see a lot of trash talking in this one basically because of the mutual respect. Pikeville is an awesome team and it will be a monumental task for us to win. However, we aren't chopped liver. I believe our schedule has prepared us for this type of game and we have been the underdog in several games and played only 5 Home games all year. We are battle tested and focus well on the road in a hostile environment. I also will say that I think our 2 teams represent two of the more hard-nosed clean teams in EKY and we love the challenge of playing each other. Whichever teams is victorious in this game, will represent the East well next week and the losing team will be supporting the other. I expect nothing but a hard-nosed competitive game and really will be shocked if it's a blowout.
