I knew that one would come up very quickly. That was, indeed, a tough one.

As a young teenager, I was pretty darn disappointed when the Hounds lost 14-13 in the State AA title game. Corbin went for a two-pt. conversion instead of opting for the tie. The Corbin RB was stopped just inches from the goal line, which would have given them back-to back state titles.

Despite Kentucky losing, that was by far the best game I had ever watched. It was like two boxers landing haymaker after haymaker and the opponent would not go down.
Every now and then I will pull up that game on YouTube to watch. The quality of play by both teams was amazing.

VERY high level of play by both teams in that classic.
