Well, here we go! This is the matchup that the KHSAA setup to knockout one of the two teams, thus sending atleast one new team to Lexington in 2 weeks.
Belfry (11-1) will face off with well known rival Central (10-2) for the Region Championship. The winner will host the State Semi-Final.
Belfry has outscored their 2017 playoff opponents 126-52
Thomas Nelson - 63-26
Lou. Waggener - 63-26
Central has outscored their 2017 playoff opponents 100-0
Pike Central - 50-0
Floyd Central - 50-0
This is going to be an all out WAR!

I would'nt quite say its the State Championship game just yet. Outside of the Powell over Casey Co. upset, all the top teams in 3A are still in the mix to end up in Lexington in 2 weeks.

You're not giving this Belfry team enough credit. They were up 21-6, took their foot off the gas a bit, lost a couple players and that allowed Waggener to get back into the game, they never took the lead. Belfry was up 28-20 at the half. The defense adjusted and in the second half they steamrolled The Wildcats.
Belfry is fine...I have no qualm about them scoring 63 points per game in the playoffs! haha

E's Army Wrote:Belfry is better offensively and Central has the better defense. Which team can enforce their will up front will win. Classic Belfry/Central game. Belfry by 3.
Belfry's offense is explosive, they had two TD's in :58 seconds last night. You may win the Time of posession against Belfry but they score so fast....

Zudith Wrote:Belfry needs to come out with more energy in the first half. The last three games they have not played well in the first quarter into the second. I like Belfry in this game.
There was a small falloff last night at the beginning of the 2nd quarter and Belfry was up 21-6. Wellman and Fields left the game with injuries and their offense woke up and had our defense on its heels for a few minutes. Fields returned to the game and Belfry still led at the half 28-20.
Belfry is just fine. Central is not as talented offensively as in the past, but their defense is tough against the run. They will be challenged to stop the run all night long because Belfry has three horses that will run, run and run some more. I think it will be a close game at the half and Belfry gets some breathing room in the third. As long as we hold onto the ball and there's no stupid penalties, I can see Belfry winning by 10-14 points

It's not the first time this season Belfry has been in a hostile environment in a true road game. This will be a hard fought game between two mutually good teams. The teams are not strangers at all.

just 1-0 fri night

This will definitely be the game of the week at least in 3A. Boyle wins easily, E-Town has made me a believer tonight and I believe they move on. Corbin gets past Powell and I plan to go see this game and I'm going with the Champs until Central proves to me why I shouldn't.

Belfry gave up some yards and points against Waggener, but Central is no offensive juggernaut. Their D is solid and may definitely cause the Pirates some trouble. I stick with what I normally say...Belfry holds on to the ball and executes they win.
11-11-2017, 05:36 PM
Belfry should win by 14-17 points, but Central is one of the toughest places in the state to get a win I don't think Central has enough offense to beat Belfry. On a side note Central will have some of the best food and hospitality you'll find anywhere.
11-11-2017, 06:16 PM
I would LOVE to watch this game.. if it wasnât @ Central.. I would. Iâm not making a prediction, but all I can say is GO PIRATES.
11-11-2017, 06:23 PM
Belfry fans- Iâm not going to lie.. it was pretty sketchy outside of the stadium. Parking wise there is parking spots on the upper endzone side of the field (about 20) and thereâs a one way street on the visitors side where you can park also, but you still have to walk around to the home side to get into the gate. Once youâre into the stadium the bathrooms/concession are on the away side. The people are very nice I thought. Good luck Belfry

And to add a little fuel to the fire... the away and home locker rooms are right beside each other. After the game some of Centrals coaches were overheard saying “we owe Belfry one” “We owe those mother truckers a few” except the didn’t say truckers... and also “they’ll see how it taste next week” more things were said but not fit to repeat. There’s one thing about it we’ll see next week lol.

About the same attitude and disrespect that Waggner had, see what it got them!
Belfry 49
Central 24
Our rushing attack hasn't been stopped all year and I don't think that will change this Friday. Go Pirates!

Well, hmm. Scroggins wouldn't have let that stuff go if he was still there.
