[Hoot Gibson]

LOL first two games without lineup set. Corbin handled JC easily in last game of the year. You will be shocked Hoot. Pikeville will run and pass very well vs. JC. Write it down. Now am I worried about JC running game? Of course, very.

You wore out that "without lineup set" excuse last season. Pikeville's coaching staff had the same amount of time to prepare for the season as the coaching staffs of Corbin, Covington Catholic, and Johnson Central. I will not be shocked if Pikeville plays well against Johnson Central. I will be shocked if the Panthers win. 

Pikeville, because of the weakness of competition in 1A can afford to lose a few games during the season because they will still be favored, home or away in the playoffs. JC needs every win that it can get because of the RPI and the competitiveness among 4A teams.
