'04 Prestonsburg- 20 vs. Belfry- 26 (OT) - Vipperman Stadium

That game was amazing to watch. Belfry had the loaded backfield with Childers, Howard, and Jones. Prestonsburg had Trevor Compton, Joe Blackburn, Jesse Chaffins, and John Mark Stephens... What a battle that was![\QUOTE]

[quote=Sarrr]I'm going to ditto this one. I didn't see the 6A championship this year, but heard it was a better one (and I'm kinda sad I missed it).

'06 Belfry at Pikeville was also a great game, but not quite the '04 OT season closer at Vipperman, the last time a regular season would end there for BHS. In hindsight, Harmon was a Sophomore that year, and until we got back to Belfry and were talking about the game with the players, I was thinking to myself "I bet Pikeville College is salivating over that kid for next season"

BTW BCS, I thought the '04 game was closer, like a 2point conversion was the difference? 18-16 maybe... Eh, my memory's crap these days.

Belfry beat Prestonsburg twice that year. The regular season game was 20-14 Belfry in OT. The Regional Finals (3rd Round) after Prestonsburg knowcked off #1 ramked Breathitt Co. and the score was 28-12.

Neither was the last game at Vipperman. The last game at Vipperman was a 39-17 blasting of Russell in the state semi-finals. Howard had 20 carries 201 yards & 2 TDs with one called back, Jones had 19 carries 199 yards & 4 TDs, and Gross had 32 carries 208 yards and 2 TDs.

That team went 14-1 after rushing for 576 yards and winning their 2nd consecutive Class AA championship against Owensboro Catholic.
