The 5-0 and AP #1 team in 5A Frederick Douglass Broncos will travel to Georgetown to take on the 4-0 and AP #6 team in 5A Scott Co. Cardinals. Both teams are coming off large wins over other Lexington schools. The Broncos defeated Henry Clay 54-7 and the Cardinals beat Dunbar 48-27. The Broncos win gave them already their 60th win in program history in only their 69th game.

This has become one of the better rivalry's in central Kentucky in just 6 short years. These two schools will be meeting for the 10th time. Scott Co. won 3 of the first 4 games in the series, but since the playoff game in November of 2018 the Broncos have won the last 5 matchup's by combined total of 192-42 with two of the games being shutouts and two running clocks. Douglass leads the series 6-3 going into Friday's game.


So far this season in the Cardinals 4 wins they are averaging 33 points a game and allowing 15 points per game. The Broncos 4 games (excluding the Lafayette forfeit) Douglass is averaging 54.2 points a game and allowing 7.2 points per game. This should be the toughest game of the season so far for both teams. I think the Broncos speed and depth will be a to much for the Cardinals I take Douglass 36-13.
