You all must’ve been watching a different game than I was. 14-6 with a little over a minute left in the 3rd and hazard drives the field after taking the onside kick in for a score to open the 2nd half. Obviously couldn’t score and Pikeville takes a big run back the other way for a TD to make it 21-6. Hazard was in the red zone or close to it seems like with a 14-6 score way late in the 3rd. The defense played good all night. Had several 3rd and 4th down stops the best I can remember. This game wasn’t any means out of reach like people are trying to act like. Anthony is just a load to do much with. Hazard offense has to start doing something and giving the defense some help. Do I think Pikeville is better than hazard? Overall probably so but this particular game was winnable for hazard. Pikeville passing game didn’t look very good to me and if not for Anthony in the backfield this games possibly a different outcome. People seem to be blaming the play calling and that very well could be true but saying this game was never in doubt for Pikeville is a stretch I think. They played a pretty clean game. Not a ton of flags and didn’t do anything foolish to really help hazard case. Hazard just showed up to play. A couple of costly turnovers early in the game set a bad tone for the offense. If those aren’t there maybe the score is flip flopped. All in all good game by Pikeville and they’ll more than likely win another state championship. Big, strong, physical kids who play hard and well coached.
