If getting blasted is 21-8, what did Hazard get at Pikeville (42-6)? Obliterated? Paintsville was the better team last night, Hazard lucked out with a combo of timely flags and some Paintsville self-destruct.

I'd say 42-6 is close to being obliterated! lol

Anyway, Paintsville should have won the game based on how the first 3 1/2 quarters went, that much would be hard for anyone to disagree with. But getting a big lead and keeping it are not the same thing. Hazard did what they had to do and Paintsville didn't. Blame lies with the coaches and the players. Can't blame the players for the penalties of shuttling players in and out. They only do what the coaches tell them. I thought that the Paintsville coaches did a terrible job toward the end of the game. The players didn't help, but who calls the plays and who tells the players what to do?

Anyway, great effort by the Tigers!! You at least had the game won and no one would have thought you would have been in the position you were in late in the 4th quarter.

As for penalties, there were some questionable calls, but not enough to have stopped Paintsville from winning if they had done what needed to have been done.
