What a fantastic performance by Prestonsburg. They never trailed in this game and pulled it out at the end. Their new spread offense is unbelievable and one that will give eastern KY schools fits this year because teams from this area aren't used to teams spreading the field and throwing the ball. This offense is probably the best looking offense I have seen come through Prestonsburg in quite some time.

As far as Belfry goes, a lot of option plays for big gains and plenty of runs up the gut out of the wishbone. They had one pass play for about 60 yards for a TD and never passed the ball again. Once P-burg got the 2 score lead in the 2nd half, Belfry's offense just didn't have a quick offensive scheme to get them back in the game. I do feel that Belfry didn't seem to give it their all on the final drive. They took too long in between plays and seem content on running it up the middle every play.

All in all, a great game by 2 teams that absolutely despise one another. I do hope this series is continued every year because the atmosphere is truly amazing.

Actually, Prestonsburg had a 2 TD lead going in at halftime.

I don't know why Coach D. elected not to try a FG on 4th and goal from the 5 just before half. It could have made it a 3 score margin...it even made me a little sick at my stomach when there was no FG formation after a time-out then!! As things ended up, those 3 points could have made THE difference.

But -whew- all ended WELL... :biggrin:


The King Kong size monkey has finally been thrown OFF of Prestonsburg's back.
