#1 Paducah Tilghman vs #2 Franklin County Class 4A State Championship Game 12/6
#33
Franklin Co may match up better than Corbin overall in this game but if they get behind two scores they'll be in trouble. I like the Flyers defense and special teams but they will need to keep it a low scoring like the game against Covington Catholic to have a chance to pull off the upset. It's  plausible because they have a great defense. That defense will need to limit the PT rushing yards where Corbin failed, and hope James is a little off his game with the cold weather. PT was in a stalemate with the Redhounds but gained traction running the ball which was one of the keys to game. I've read some post that say Franklin Co is good at setting the edge but I saw several CovCath runs get outside containment. PT has a greater potential to push the edge with their speed which is cause for concern. PT QB James didn't have a good first half against Corbin with several passes missing high. The passing game of PT vs. the Franklin Co secondary will be one major key to this game. I believe the Flyers need to keep the score under 23 to have a shot for their first title. I won't count them out because they are physical and tough but I still think PT is the favorite by two scores. If an experience QB and great athlete like Elam couldn't handle the blitz I worry what the freshman QB will do if Franklin falls behind and they are forced to pass. I'll say Paducah Tilghman 28-13, when they get their athletes in space eventually it equals paydirt.......... but go Flyers!
