Class 1 A Championship Pikeville 43 Paintsville 0

I agree about that reverse wishbone because it’s absolutely mind-boggling how it was used. I heard a fairly generous amount of people at the game talking about that. Seeing it run in person instead of going by film and hearsay, that was doomed from the beginning.

I think Hyden's injury earlier in the season set Paintsville's offensive chemistry back a few games. Tbh though, with the talent and size of that o line, in single A football, they could have beat most teams in the state with virtually any formation they chose to run. That OL was the cornerstone that this team's success was built upon. They ran the same 2 or 3 plays vs KCD and got 5-10 yards every time. KCD knew it was coming, but they had nothing to stop it. But Pikeville wasn't KCD. Pikeville had the players and defensive gameplan to stop those couple of plays that Paintsville rode all the way to Kroger Field. That being said, I think they could have possibly scored 20-30 points vs Pikeville... if they played the game of their lives, and did some things on offense that Pikeville hadn't seen from them all year, but I don't think there was any way they were going to win this game. Paintsville, like every other team in 1A, just ran into a matchup nightmare against Pikeville. IMO, this Pikeville team goes down as one of the top 2 or 3 teams that Pikeville has ever fielded, and they've fielded some great ones.
