"I will agree that Hazard will be the clear favorite, but not close to top 20. The mtns have a couple of teams that will sniff top 20 but they are in the 16th and 13th. Al won't come outta Hazard to play anyone and you won't be ranked by staying at home all year and the people who do the rankings are in Lex and Lville."

Heard Hazard has games scheduled against Ashland and Madison Central early in the season.

Ashland is a home game.  Central is in the "Tim Short Classic" lol--it will be a home cooking game and Central finished 10-23 last year, will not be much competition. Point is Al will not play any team that may be above average away from home. Never has never will. Toughest game will on Feb 18th. Other than that they should finish the regular season with only 2 losses and a Diet Water weak RPI
