Somerset wins in a competitive game. It wouldn't surprise me if Breathitt led in the 2nd half but I think Somerset wins by 2 scores. Breathitt will have the best player on the field in Collins but Somerset is the better team.

That very well may be the case, Collins is a very special player. But I do want to point out that there have been multiple times this year when this exact statement was made before Somerset faced a specific opposing player, and every time Kade Grundy outplayed them.

[JumperPride1]

No I haven't but I have Collins for Breathitt. He was player of the year in his district last year at Anderson County in 5a.

He is a very good running back. Somerset has the returning district POY and the current district POY on this team.

Jase Bruner - LB won it last year
Kaiya Sheron - QB this year

Kade is an all American baseball player, super athlete. Really looking forward to Breathitt coming to town in 6 days.

Breathitt heads to Somerset for their first real test with a trip to Kroger Field on the line. Thoughts and predictions?

As Mr. T would say, "Pain", for Breathitt. Jumpers going away, something like 35-7. Competitive at times, but in the end, similar to Johnson Central vs Wayne.

[smoke1015]

I think anyone that thinks Breathitt puts up a bunch of points on this Somerset defense is Cousin Eddie's less intelligent cousin who doesn't care of the sh**ter is full.

BC is almost like another county team that starts with B, I just don’t think they’ve played a team like somerset, so it’s hard to gauge them because of it. WV was decent, let’s be honest about it. But the bunnies would put a running clock on them.

Yes Somerset may have but a running clock on them but breathitt did as well so your point is useless

[JumperPride1]

Really doesn’t matter but any thoughts on BCs record were they to have played Somerset’s schedule?

[Big_blue]

I would say breathitt would be around 11-2 or close to that with the schedule given credit to Lca and some of the other teams Somerset has played but also given credit to breathitt as this is a good team and not the push over a lot of people are saying they are

Here is where the Breathitt County schedule will absolutely kill them. They have blown out about everyone they've played but hasn't played a team like Somerset and it's going to expose them. And like a poster said a few weeks back, with all the running clocks it allowed the Bobcats to stay healthy and rest the starters for half of most games. Did that help or hurt? Will the starters be able to play a tough four quarters of smash mouth football or has all that rest and not playing entire games against a quality opponent not prepared them, stamina wise, to go a complete game?

I hope I'm wrong but I don't think I am. The Bobcats has had an outstanding season, no doubt, but I just can't see it continuing past this coming Friday. But we will see. Like I always say, anything can happen on a Friday night football field. Good luck to both teams.

Your very right about stamina I saw that vs WV. They were very tired. I don’t think Somerset has more athletes than Breathitt, the Bobcats could go toe to toe with any team in 2A. I worry about two things Stamina for Bobcats all 4 Quarters, also worry about Somerset hard nose running style. I hear posters on here say that Bobcats score one or two Td the whole game that is crazy. This will be a really good game Somerset maybe beat Bobcats 2Tds. But if Bobcats can pull off some turnovers of defense some how and get some big stops on defense. The Bobcats can win. I will be cheer on this team no matter if win or loss at Somerset on Friday. This bunch Seniors didn’t even have middle school football or Grade school football at all. Didn’t get play a game of football until freshman year. ( Glad that has changed)What these coaches and players have done is quite remarkable. Super proud of this Team!!! It will be a dawg fight on Friday Go Bobcats.

I been a Breathitt County fan for a long time and will be a fan this weekend, But it ends this week irateSho

Somerset 42
Breathitt County 14

[Easy Wind]

Waa. Quit being a crybaby

[Easy Wind]

I think breathitt wins. But I’ve been wrong before

[Walt Longmire]

If saw Breathitt early your right. But I watch Somerset four times and Bobcats are two tds better team!!! Call me crazy but they have as good shot as Somerset and LCA making to Kroger!!!!

C'mon man. Don't back off now and say Somerset might beat the Bobcats by 2 touchdowns or that if Breathitt can somehow get some turnovers they can win. You said that Breathitt was 2 touchdowns better than Somerset. Don't try and get humble now, we remember what you said. Own it. It's right there for everyone to see.

Be careful there Walt. If BC does win this game by 2 tds you are setting yourself up to take a verbal beating...lol

I never said they wouldn't. But I also didn't get on here and talk about how much better my team was then another then back off when they had to play them.

BC fans gettin skeered now, they very well MIGHT be a good team, good, somerset finna school them.

[JDCaudill4]

Let the pads do the talking nothing matters that’s said on here at the end of the day so people can talk the boys in Blue and White will let their pads be what breaks the will Friday

[Redneck]

Somerset is probably the best program WITHOUT a State Championship in their schools history. Paintsville and Raceland could both make the same argument. I’d like to see the Bunnies get them one, but I do have a bunch of buddies from Breathitt so I cheer for them.

Breathitt may just go down there and pull it off. They do have some athletes, BUT their defense is gonna have to step up.

[Big_blue]

The best anyone could hope for in these kind of games is for both teams to be injury free. This should be a close hard fought game and the winner gets to play a team that will be just as good and just as hungry for the title.

I had a school teacher from Breathitt County. Can you believe that?

Somerset offense will be too much for the Bobcats. Bobcats have played a cake schedule (opponents are 54-88, prior to WV game over half off those wins came from 2 teams!) Bobcats haven't faced on offense that has thrown for over 1244 (Leslie County was the highest) yards for the season, that is less than Grundy has caught alone this year (1245). Sheron has thrown for 2834 yards against much better competition. If they happen to stop the passing game (which they won't), Somerset will run run run all over the Bobcats. Bruner, Austin, Smith, Garland, and Bailey, take your pick, you will probably get a dose of all of them.

Bobcats have had a cake schedule but it ends on Friday with the Jumpers heading to Kroger Field.

You are what’s wrong with this site you can’t give credit to the kids that play there hearts out for the name of the front of the jersey but you have to find a way to take away from all the hard work these kids do day in and day out. Let’s let the kids settle this on the field and if you overlook the bobcats you will be sitting at home when breathitt plays for the title

Oh, Im sorry for actually supporting my thoughts with facts. Somerset wins big. Congrats to Breathitt on making it to the final four.

You can look at stats but with the rain forecasted Friday night I have to go with the bobcats due to it being a running kind of night and Collins is better than somerset running game

[JDCaudill4]

recruiting one of the best players in the state is always remarkable nicker:

Collins is a homegrown talent who had to go away do to jobs and he wanted to come home , so before people claim we recruit try to do some research , I mean it’s not hard to find out all of his brothers played at breathitt and his dad his dad is on the staff , check before you try dishing out false accusations

His brother is also helping. Will Thomas is helping with the line and running game.
