It's funny, this thread about a game between the state's overall second-ranked team(Corbin) and a team(JC) with a RPI  WELL below that of Williamsburg will get five times the number of views than the thread about the big rematch between 4A's second and third ranked teams.

Nobody believes that Corbin is the second best team in Kentucky and anybody who understands the RPI knows that it is not valid to compare teams in different classes.

The state's consensus #1 last week, St X , lost to Male, who lost to Ballard, who lost to Scott County, who squeaked by Franklin County, who Corbin mauled by 20. I think a case could be made for Corbin being #2.  I think you'll find a healthy number of Corbinites , a good number of BGR'ers and some KSR staffers who would agree.

I think the case could be made that Trinity would beat Corbin like a rented mule. I am sure that a good number of Corbinites are willing and eager to believe that Corbin is the top team in the state but that doesn't make the claim any less silly.

A lot less silly than bamboo-laced China ballots flown into AZ that you bought into, among a myriad of other conspiracy theories. You can buy into that craziness but you can't wrap your mind around the fact that, maybe, just maybe, Corbin is the state's second best team?  Kinda weird.

Stop lying and stick to the topic. I have seen Corbin play several times this season. I watched Trinity wear out the Simon Kenton team that Corbin fans have been touting as a top tier 6A team ever since SK shredded Corbin's vaunted defense. Corbin is not on the same level as Trinity or the other teams that I mentioned. Why that matters so much to Corbin fans is a mystery to me. When Johnson Central won their first title after winning every playoff game with a running clock and winning the final game 48-0, with a first half running clock, I don't recall any JC fans trying to make the case that the Golden Eagles were the best team in any class.

Corbin has won nothing yet, and you are upset because I don't agree that Redhounds are the second best team in all classes. That is actually both sad and hilarious at the same time.
