Green Co. @ Metcalfe Co.

This game has been somewhat a rivalry game for both teams that really started back around 2007 where both teams were making noise in Class 2A. Lately it has been owed by the Dragons. Green is coming off a thumping from Class 2A's #2 team Caldwell County and sets with a record of 2-4. Metcalfe is coming off a bye week with extra preparation for this matchup. Both teams are facing a much needed win as it is the first District game. The Dragons will travel to the Hornets in a game where it looks evenly matched. Both teams have had trouble scoring for the most part, I give the edge to Metcalfe on the defensive side while I feel the Dragons are better offensively and played the much tougher schedule. Who wins this one, thoughts?

Metcalfe Co @ Casey Co

Metcalfe County (3-4) will travel to Liberty to face Casey County (3-4) this Friday Night. Metcalfe is coming off back to back wins over Clinton County and rival Green County while Casey has suffered back to back loses to Bell County and Wayne County. Neither team has a win over a quality opponent so seems to be an even matchup. Metcalfe's wins are over three teams with a combined record of 6-16 while Casey's three wins come over teams with a combined 2-19 record. Who walks away from Liberty with this win?

Bowling Green v. Warren Central

I am pretty ambivalent about most of BG's games even thought I wore the Purple and Gold and have strong feelings about the Alma Mater.

A few games stand out though.

BG v. any private school. Trinity, St. X, LexCath, Sacred Heart....I don't care. Just win.

BG v. any bunch of whiny loudmouths from south of the border. Of all the teams to end the streak it had to be a damn private school from Tennessee. GRRRR.

And last but not least,

BG v. that bunch of Purple wannabes from out Russellville Road. I knew the Dragons when they were Warren County High School. When that got changed to Warren CENTRAL something just snapped out there. They lost their freaking minds.

BGHS is going to win this. By a significant margin.

Trigg Co. @ Paducah Tilghman predictions

Trigg is 4-3 against a schedule I would not call burdensome. Trigg seems to always play hard against PT, 3-5, which is looking for its second district win. It is PT's Homecoming and the last regular season home game of the year. PT has shown it can put up points but struggles on defense. I'm saying 32-21 PT. With a different bounce or two, PT could be 4-4, which is better than most anyone predicted.

Bell Co. travels to Corbin Friday

One of the biggest games in 3A on Friday will take place in Corbin as district foe Bell County travels to Campbell Field to take on the Redhounds. Bell County has dominated the district since it joined 3A and the winner of this game likely wins the district. The Bobcats have not lost to the Redhounds since joining 3A but I think that comes to an end this Friday night. The Hounds get a big win at home by outlasting the Bobcats 27-21.

Thoughts?

Florida HS looking for out of state game.

Spruce Creek High School located in Port Orange (Daytona Beach area) is looking to travel out of state for a game in 2015, preferably week 2-4.

We are an 8A program that is currently 4-2 this season. We are in florida's largest classification due to our IB academic program which has over 600 students. Our varsity team carries between 40-45 members. We are open to playing anyone. We would be able to finance most of the trip ourselves, but help would be greatly appreciated.
