Very few teams are 100% this time of year, but Pikeville has really been hit with the injury bug pretty hard this year it seems. I think that is part of their “issues” offensively. There has been a lack of cohesive play on that side of the ball all year. Same situation at times on defense. Not to say that Pikeville hasn’t been able to keep the ball rolling, but they definitely have not looked like the seamless Pikeville offenses we have seen in the past couple of years. Pikeville has always had superior talent during their run. This year is no different. But they haven’t been able to have all the talent together at one time and the lack of being able to consistently hand the ball to 35 15+ times a game has affected their offensive production. To me, their offense this year has looked a lot like Racelands the last couple of years. And that’s if the ground and pound game isn’t rolling they have struggled a bit against the better teams on their schedule. They got a lot of pieces back last week though. So I expect them to be a different animal by the regional round.
