I'm generally not in favor of Johnson Central playing 1A schools, but Pikeville is a lot better than most of the non-district teams that Johnson Central usually schedules and better than any of the current district opponents. It would be nice for both Belfry and Johnson Central to meet early in the season and I wouldn't mind seeing JC play Pikeville as long as the program remains strong. Belfry and Johnson Central playing each other in the last game before playoffs is risky for both teams because of the physical style both teams play.
