Those are really the only teams that can really stop or slow down any offense in there respected classes.

Bell County had the number one defense in 4-A all season and nearly all classes in 2007. The Bobcats defense held Lexington Catholic to a much close game than the 35-16 score showed. 3 big plays accounted for most of their points. Merrick's 90% plus touchback ratio on over 70 kickoffs....started the offense on the 20 nearly every time. Bell only punted sixteen times all season...but six were inside twenty....and 0 return yardage. Nearly everyone is back for Bell. Some key players will be missed, but there are experienced players ready to fill the gap.
