[Bull got out!]

 I don’t know what they look at when making their rankings Corbin is in that top 5-7 team in the state for sure. St X. , Male, Frederick Douglass, Boyle are the top 4. Why? I’ll let those teams be self explanatory when they matchup with the heavyweights. Now, football is a game that can have that on any given night syndrome as well. I saw a Bullitt East team take the crown last year. Not 1 poll had Bullitt East winning the 6A title. No one other than a few fans was saying they had much of a chance. Corbin the last couple of years has had teams that were right there. This years team is no different. Now I’ll throw this pooch kick in the mix. I have watched a many of good teams the last couple of years. I think a couple weeks ago I witnessed the best two offensive teams I have seen. Boyle and then LCA. That’s no shade on anyone. That’s just the truth. Not many fans this way will see those offenses. I have. I know a good football team when I see one. As always when all the marbles are on the table, all teams tighten up and points spreads close when it’s an elimination game. I like reading your stuff Old School. I’m a big fan of the Red team. I’m just not a fan of politics……   I’ll not go into that as the season is under way. Corbin has a opportunity to beat one of the top 4 teams in the state this Friday. Arguably the top team overall. But this years schedules has the top teams playing similar opponents and by season’s end, it will all be sorted out by there play on the field. We all will know who the top teams are by the end of week 10.

Excellent post.  It will all sort itself out in the end. 

One final point on Boyle. They may very well be as good as you say. Maybe no one in 4A can hang with them. That's possible. I've watched them play one game. A home game. And quite frankly, a few more inches and they would have probably lost that game. Had LCA made those few inches on the 4th and 2 late in the game, they probably score and win the game. So, Boyle was very close to a home loss to a 2A team. Granted, a very good 2A team.   As for Scott County, the Cardinals couldn't stop a cold. Me and Bull and Viz and Hound05 could put up three scores on Scott County. I think hapless Lincoln County put up 20 on them. So, of course, Boyle County scored at will on them. Corbin has a much, much better defense than Scott County. With the Corbin Grizzly Bear defense, I don't think it will be as easy to score at will on them.  Can Corbin match Boyle score for score? That's yet to be determined. However, if the betting line was Boyle County(-35), people all over the state would be making a mad dash to bet a bundle on Corbin. I think a potential Corbin-Boyle matchup could be another tight one. But a lot of factors might come into play as the season progresses that could change the calculus of a Corbin-Boyle rematch. Injuries to one team or another can certainly change the outlook.

No doubt -35 is not going to be the spread in the 3rd round and beyond.   But being at the LCA/Boyle game, I didn't get the feeling that Boyle was beat at anytime of the game. What I saw was a pont in that 3rd quarter where I thought Boyle was going to run off with it. Keep in mind, they scored 47 points in 15 minutes. Then Scott County was a nice team, I was shocked. First time seeing them and they are a legit top 2 or 3 team in 5A. Arguably #1. But they flat out man handled Scott County, it was a beat down. I'll say this, I watched Covington Catholic against North Laurel. I have watch Corbin at Lexington Catholic and I have watched Boyle vs LCA and Scott County. ...I go back to what I saw the first time I went to Boyle at there 7x7 that night. Speed.... They got it. I aint just saying it, They have got nitrous under them there cleats....  Best looking offense I have seen in a long time....... The regular season is showing just what I saw in the 7x7, Speeeeed.. Scores are backing it up as well. They have alot more weapons this year brother... Its like getting 4 Bottles of ex lax and taking it all at one time... When you know you got to go.....LOL...Thats how fast I see those dudes moving....they aint wasting no time getting down the field...
