Rockcastle County and Knox Central played each other going back to the 1977 season when Rockcastle had a really impressive 8-2 record. Rock and Knox was the last game of the year and it was at home. That game would go on to become at one time the highest scoring high school football game in the nation when Rockcastle lost a heartbreaker 52-54 in double OT, since then Rockcastle has totally dominated the overall series, I honestly believe the overall record is 22-10 going to Rockcastle, and if this is correct then Rock and Knox will play each other for the 33rd time since 1977. When Coach Larkey was there, His Rocket squad did not lose one match against them until the year after my senior year which was 2007. His overall record with KC at Rockcastle was 18-1 overall.....This game has certainly been a huge importance in the past few years especially the last 2 seasons. Rockcastle has to be ready for this by no doubt. This game would have to be considered among this year the Rock's most important game to win as far as seeding in November in my strong opinion. This game can possibly push a home playoff spot for the winner in the first round. I wish good luck to both teams this upcoming friday night.
