I know a lot of the seniors, including myself, were standing at the locker room talking about a pep bus already... I'm pretty sure we could get a lot of the kids to come especially if they can get out of school... but I'm not sure about the other fans aside from the parents...
The Tigers have a long road trip, they'll probably have to leave right after they get some lunch. I agree, Paintsville's crowds have been a big disappointment Hazard comes to mind, this game comes to mind as well. I want to see a crowd like the one that traveled to Pikeville or was at the Prestonsburg game or heck even the Apple bowl make the long haul. If Lynn Camp can bring that type of fan support, it should be a challenge to Paintsville. The best way I can think of doing so is with a little bribery for the half a day of school if enough students sign up to go to the game. With high school kids a little reward goes a long way, c'mon fans and students a like let's get behind the Tigers and get a big caravan to head down to the briar patch for this big game. I want to the Seniors and Juniors to put some weight on their shoulders this week, when they were freshmen and sophomores this Somerset team was the guys who introduced them to the high school playoffs royally.

Somerset's passing attack is a little too much for Paintsville.
Somerset 40
Paintsville 12

Somerset....And no,...just so ya'll know...it's not cause Paintville BEAT us last night(which, might i add was only by one point, with Chaffin havin' an injury, as well as P-ville missing their best player...) it is because i think somerset is the better team....sorry guys truth hurts.....Lets Go Briar Jumpers....No offense to anyone else....

Paintsville suprised me last night. If Paintsville can play a mistake free game meaning no turnovers or costly pen. and give Pugh time to throw IMO they stand a good chance of winning in a close one.

We played for crap in the 1st half on both sides of the ball, so Paintsville never really saw what we had been able to do all year. Hard to compare the Somerset and Paintsville games we played based on how we played last night, you beat us by 1 and so did Somerset, but the Jumpers are a whole different animal. They will not have a letdown. Not attacking anyone, but I still don't think, after seeing both teams against us, that there is anyway that Paintsville will have the time to try and pick the Jumpers apart like they did us in the first half. Paintsville has an explosive offense, but Somerset does, too and is a couple of players better at it. Somerset will have Pugh constantly on the run and P'ville will not be quick enough to contain Newell, Deaton and company. They are quicker than Lynn Camp and LC gave Paintsville fits in the 2nd half. Long trip for a long face. Somerset takes the region.

The Lynn Camp faithful also noticed that it was a small crowd on the blue side of the field. The HOME side had a lot of empty seats. Need to get out and make some noise at Somerset. Support your guys. Phelps had what appeared to be about 20 people at the game in Somerset last week. The PA guy seemed to be an excitable kind of person, maybe he could bring a bullhorn or something........and keep screaming 1st down Paintsville.

Like I said Daddy Cat, I've been disappointed in Paintsville's crowd a few times this season. A lot of Paintsville's faithful prefer to stand on the railings, I guess because they feel confined in the stands. Last night was not a bad crowd for Paintsville but it seemed the Camper fans were more numerous and made a lot more noise. As for the PA guy, I'm pretty sure when we're on the road he's the mascot. He does a good job at that as well.

Another thing about the stands at The Ville'... the Home side is a lot bigger than the visitors side... and im sure if they were equal, Paintsville's side would have been busting at the seams... anyway, football isn't the sport at Paintsville, and you can tell... but nonetheless everyone needs to cheer for the team, its the first time we have played in the Region Championship game since Chaz Harmon was QB in 2001... (I believe it was the Fleming Neon game)
MOJO, I think we are going to make it mandatory for everyone in the pep club to ride the bus to Somerset... which would give us a lot of student support...

Sounds good to me but then you'll have kids there who don't want to be there. That only concerns me because they may be distracted by other things such as being troublesome. I don't care either way, I just think the Tigers need to be supported. They made it this far, and the true fans along with the students should be there backing them 100%. I was very impressed by the entourage the Campers brought and how enthused they were to be there watching two good teams get in a Cat fight. :lmao:

Superman Wrote:Sounds like some of the predictions made for last week. If im not mistaken, didnt Somerset just beat Lynn Camp by one point? If Paintsville wouldnt have had a bad second half, i would have to say that Lynn Camp would have to say that the score of the Lynn camp came wouldnt have been that close.Now that we're playing the IF card, IF Lynn Camp played any kind of first half, we'd be inviting y'all to come down and watch the Cats and the Bunnies, now would'nt we?:Hammer3:

Paintsville better be ready! if Somerset is as good as there score says. But I think this is to un-predictible for these two teams.
11-13-2005, 12:43 AM
Hey, if IF's and buts and hookers weren't nuts we'd all have a merry christmas....hush the trash talk and make your predictions without doing that kindergarten stuff. Should be a good game...anything can happen under those Friday night lights...I played in too many games that went the other way (for our advantage)...whoever wants it more will win.

paintsville is capable of putting plenty of points on the scoreboard, this one will be a shootout, anything can happen in this type of game, so i will say paintsville pulls the shocker and comes back home with a HUGE (but close) win!!! good luck paintsville play it like its your last one, cause it very well may be!
11-13-2005, 01:36 AM
i think that paintsville pulls off the win
11-13-2005, 05:43 PM
I think that Paintsville wins this game.

ANYTHING can happen under the lights, but it won't this week. We lost to Paintsville by 1 and we lost to Somerset by 1. We played a full game against Somerset, we played half a game against Paintsville. There is no comparisson. Somerset is way too fast. LC held Paintsville to almost no yards in the 2nd half and Somerset WILL NOT have an off night on defense. Still don't think Paintsville has seen ANYTHING like The Bunnies speed this year. Get ready for a long night!!!!:mad:

You all haven't seen Paintsville play enough to make those assumptions... they did play against Ron Blume... last time I checked he is pretty fast... Paintsville played conservative in the 2nd half and it almost bit them... but it doesn't matter now... they beat LC, and the task at hand is Somerset... Coach Runyon will have them prepared... and if they play like they did against Prestonsburg/Hazard/Pikeville(minus 3rd quarter when Hans got hurt)/Evarts/Lynn Camp its gonna be a great game...

Yeah and Blume also lit Paintsville up. By no means am I saying that the Tigers can't handle the team speed, and to be honest I haven't seen enough of the Jumpers to make that kind of assumption. Instead of naming all those games some of which you could subtract quarters from also, how about just saying put together a game for all 4 quarters. The closest that comes to mind is the Hazard game with the exception of that one I've not seen the Tigers put together 4 quarters this season.
