[RAMDAD50]

I’m glad I made the trip to Highlands to watch this game….it’s a special place to take in a high school football game. They put on a good show. Look how the kids do live reporting as the game is going on.

Raceland needed this game. Raceland needs another game like this on their schedule. The Rams need to run against someone thats faster then they are…..it makes you play harder and it makes you better. Every kid for Raceland was challenged at every position tonight and it was great to see how each kid responded! Last year when we got hit in the mouth by Pikeville some of these same kids quit…..it didn’t happen tonight.

Raceland won’t see another team this year that has the individual talent they faced tonight. #1 for Highlands is probably the best football players I’ve seen in person in the last ten years. I’m really impressed with our run defense. We don’t play anyone the rest of the year that can stretch the field like Highlands did so I feel confident we will finish the season with only one loss.

The Raceland fans need to realize we should never go 10-0! We need to beef up the schedule and continue playing big time football and finding great competition. The look on some of the Raceland fans faces last night made me laugh hahah. It’s like all they wanna do is put 50 on crap teams every night and pump their chest about it. The Rams got far more out of this loss then they have any of their first three games.

I agree 100%. I was listening to some of the Highlands fans when I left and they were talking about how they were impressed with how hard our kids played.  I left feeling like this was a good loss.  Sure you want to win every week but sometimes you learn more after losing a game.  

We looked like we fell asleep at the wheel in the 2nd quarter and just looked out of sorts.  We did a really good job regrouping after halftime and coming out with our gloves up and not giving Highlands a knockout blow.  In the end though we just didn’t have the horses to dig ourselves out of the hole we got into.  

I also enjoyed the Highlands environment.  It was unique for sure and though they are down by their standards you could feel the pride in their tradition.  The people there were really friendly too and overall I think it was a good experience for the players and fans alike.

i wish there was a way we could keep this game going but with the RPI it would be a dumb move for Highlands. I don’t believe the RPI system will last long in Kentucky….I hope not anyways haha
