Belfry vs. Prestonsburg??

[Red and Black]

Who thinks we should go ahead and start this thread, because i'm pumped, even tho i kno this is the worst chance Pburg has had in 4 years and this is the worst team either team has had in that period of time, it's still gonna be Pburg vs. Belfry, lol, so what do u guys think??

[15thRegionCrazy]

I'm going to wait a few more days before I make any predictions

[BelfryPride]

Yeah, I was going to wait on this one too.....It didnt seem right since we both have games yet to play tonight.

[HappyGilmore]

Yeah, but I can't wait to start talking about it either.

Someone give me a little info on how to use the emoticons now that BGR has upgraded.

Thanks!!!!

[Red and Black]

sorry guys, i was too pumped and wanted to start it off earlier. lol

[BelfryPride]

I almost started it last night, but decided to wait until late tonight or tomorrow.

[Red and Black]

alright, sounds good then.....

[BCF4L]

P-burg of course. They are gonna be ready. 2 weeks of practice should get them ready for this game.

[BelfryPride]

Yeah, but I can't wait to start talking about it either.

Someone give me a little info on how to use the emoticons now that BGR has upgraded.

Thanks!!!!

Just go over and click the icon and it will post it where your cursor is at that moment. :wieghts:

[Red and Black]

BCF, i'm sure that Belfry has been practicing for 2 weeks also.

[BelfryPride]

Wow....where to begin ?

This will be a battle once more. Even though the cats will be 1-5 and the Pirates will be 6-1. I dont see this as a blowout by any means. I think that P'Burg hosting this game gives them a little advantage to say in the least.I think the boys from Pond Creek will pull out the W. I am not going to post any score as of yet, I'll wait till Tues or Wed. to do that.

:Skull03: Go Pirates, Beat the BlackCats !!!:Skull03:

[imported_torQQue]

Yeah, but I can't wait to start talking about it either.

Someone give me a little info on how to use the emoticons now that BGR has upgraded.

Thanks!!!!

HappyGilmore. After the conversion existing members that came across had to reconfigure thier options in thier profile. I noticed all your tools bars and smilies and such was still all turned off. I enabled all these features for you. Now you will be able to see the smilies and just click on them as normal like BP mentioned..

[MR.INCREDIBLE]

man this is going to be a fun week talkin about this one! :wenumber1 :wenumber1
















here ya go pburg :Second: lol:BigLaugh:

[Red and Black]

Well, If we get beat by Belfry we r gonan be holding up the :Third:, lol

Well, actually as it stands right now....

Belfry is :#1:

Sheldon Clark is :Second:

Shelby Valley is :Third:


Prestonsburg is the 4 spot

[BelfryPride]

Ttt

[BCF4L]

Yeah but that will change BP. SV will move down and P-burg will take over the #3 spot. Here in P-burg we're hoping for a Prestonsburg win against Belfry and a SC loss against SV and Belfry. Thus moving Prestonsburg to the #1 spot. Wouldn't that be sweet. :)

We'll see........:shh:

[orisonspi]

This game worries me alot...

Belfry is in a lose-lose situation.

If Belfry wins by a large ammount then everyone comments how down Pburg is and that it doesn't mean anything...if Belfry wins by a small margin then everyone still acknowledges that Pburg is down and that Belfry must be too in order to only win marginally.

If Belfry loses then the chances of a district title drastically decrease and all of a sudden Belfry is put in a situation where they need to beat Ironton (OH) to help win the district.

No offense to Pburg but the team in the driver seat is Sheldon Clark and they await next week on homecoming... Pburg has a few years of unfinished business left... they are a mystery and their inconsistency masks the VERY talented team that awaits beneath it... they are playing at Pburg which is a very tough place to win... for the first time all year Pburg has confidence on their side....

[BCF4L]

Good observation O. But I don't see where beating Ironton helps anything. Ironton isn't in the district so it doesn't count as far as district standings go.

[BCF4L]

Nevermind I see where you're getting that from now. Cuz if Prestonsburg beats Belfry then that puts Belfry's record exactly the same as Sheldon Clarks. But if you guys beat Sheldon Clark which is likely, you don't have to worry about beating Ironton.

[MR.INCREDIBLE]

whether or not these 2 teams are up or down....it doesnt matter when they face each other, it will be war and yes right now i give pburg a slight advantage because you just dont go into pburg and expect to come out with a win. wewill have to play better than we have played all season to win...i just hope haywood has his boys ready and not takin the blackcats lightly because of thier record. im not sure what a win against ironton will do to help win the district other than building confidence...but by then it will be too late if im not mistaken the only district game after ironton is shelby valley and...well no offense to them, im not near as worried about them as i am prestonsburg. either way just hope BOTH teams play an injury free game and put on a **** of a show for us that will be there!! GO PIRATES

[MR.INCREDIBLE]

Nevermind I see where you're getting that from now. Cuz if Prestonsburg beats Belfry then that puts Belfry's record exactly the same as Sheldon Clarks. But if you guys beat Sheldon Clark which is likely, you don't have to worry about beating Ironton.

glad you figured that out....i was wondering myself.....orisonspi, you are the man:worthy:

[football05]

I say Belfry will walk away with district title hands down....Sheldon clark 2nd and pburg 3rd

[football05]

I hope I am wrong and we beat belfry this week but I dont see it happening.....who all is going to be at the game.....we shoudl all meet up at half time or something

[MR.INCREDIBLE]

its more like who wont be there football.....should be the best thing goin on next friday night

[Isonator]

Belfry!
Belfry 42
Pburg 14

[BelfryPride]

Belfry needs to be really focused for the next two weeks. First of all a W at P'burg will be vital for the Pirates district title hopes, and if they do win the game, they have to be careful of a let down against the Cards the following week. Sheldon Clarks win over P'burg has all but secured them the #2 seed in the district.

[football05]

MR. I last years game at belfry was an awsome atmosphere to be around .....it felt like a game at UK or something I guess where everyone was so packed tightly together and everyone in the game...amazing I hope this friday is the same way....

[tomcatnation]

Belfry will take this one if they come in playing their game that they have been showing everyone since opening kickoff.

Pirates 47

p-burg 20

[BelfryPride]

This game scares me to death....... This year is no different because when it comes to Belfry/P'Burg you can throw all the records out the window. It dont matter that Belfry is 5-1 and P'burg is 1-5...its going to be a war.

I have alot of respect for the Prestonsburg program and so does Coach Haywood. We need to come out focused and intense. We need to keep the Cat fans and the refs out of the game with solid smashmouth football. Ball control will be the key against the Cats.We just need to limit our mistakes and keep the ball out of their hands.

If Belfry can do all that, I feel good about our chances.

Go Pirates !!!!

[theswag]

1 Thing 4 sure... It's gonna get REAL ugly REAL quick.

[blackcat]

I can't wait until next Friday, no matter the records, it's going to be a great game. P-burg's confidence has raised a little bit and I'm sure they will be ready for this game, as they always are. The offense they're running now suits there team much better, but I haven't seen anything on Belfry, except for a couple of highlights from SO and that I know they thumped a good Pikeville team. Never the less, I like P-burg's chances in this one.

P-burg - 28
Belfry - 21

[MR.INCREDIBLE]

MR. I last years game at belfry was an awsome atmosphere to be around .....it felt like a game at UK or something I guess where everyone was so packed tightly together and everyone in the game...amazing I hope this friday is the same way....


im sure it will be, the game there the year before last was a great one...you all have a great atmosphere there as well, i cant wait:wenumber1

[football05]

maybe we could meet up MRI?

[MR.INCREDIBLE]

maybe we could meet up MRI?

sure thing football i will definitely be there

[orisonspi]

No matter who the oponent,,, Belfry has equalizer that will doom them in no matter who they play and that is fumbles. If we turn the ball over like the Lawrence County game I honestly think we lose this game.

These next three weeks will let us Belfry fans know where this team is.... right now I think we are all on cloud 9 watching these young men mature and become a top tier 2A football team... but it will be so easy for us to be clamoring how we have no shot at a regional title if we struggle through these next 3 weeks.

Pburg- this game will teach us alot... how our team handles a team that is very talented that they are supposed to beat (think about a 2nd round playoff matchup type of team)

Sheldon Clark- should be for district title, this will teach us how our team will respond against a solid team in a big game setting with alot of pressure,, SC should be 6-2 coming in and prolly ranked in the top 10 in the state. This will show if we are ready for a regional final game.

Ironton- How will this young team respond against a physical, powerhouse type of team. We will be the underdog,,,much like we will be in the state semi finals if we make it that far.

We look impressive the next few weeks and all of a sudden you'll see the Pond Creek nation out in full force the rest of the year ala 2003 and 2004.

[tomcatnation]

P-burg if they can stay away from the penalties that they are known for getting then the game can stay close. But if they can't then Belfry will come away with the W. But gl to both teams.

[Tomcat68]

Belfry 35
P-Burg 14

[BCF4L]

I will also be attending this game. If anyone wants to meet me, I will be working this game. My job (Appalachian Wireless) is gonna be at the front where they take up tickets. We should have a tent, table, or something showing App Wireless' name. I'm the tall one that will be working there. Just look me up and we will talk. You can also sign up at our table for a chance to win a 50 dollar check while you are there. We have given away 50 dollars at every game we have attended this year, and donated 100 dollars to both teams. But just look me up.

[football05]

So you wont be watching the game BCF4L?

[Rocky]

Good a time as any :)

[Rocky]

Wont be close at all

[WOW]

Can you please explain one thing- how does an out of state team, Ironton, Ohio- figure into the district picture?

I'm just a little lost on this one.

[15thRegionCrazy]

I'm going with Prestonsburg....

[MR.INCREDIBLE]

Can you please explain one thing- how does an out of state team, Ironton, Ohio- figure into the district picture?

I'm just a little lost on this one.

if sheldon clark and belfry end up with the same record in district play, one of the tie breakers is thier overall record....a loss against ironton puts belfry at a bad disadvantage.

[BelfryPride]

How does Ironton figure into the District equation ??? If a team loses all their noindistrict games and wins all the district games, they are the dist. champ. There is no way Ironton can keep us from winning the dist. title. We have beaten Ironton once out of 11 times, did the losses prevent us from winning district ? No :Thumbs:

[BasketBallonlyfan]

I am sorry to the people at P-burg, but I really dont think they have a chance against Belfry. It will be Belfry by as many as they want

[Red and Black]

shew, before the season started I was sooooo prepared to talk all kinds of smack on here when Pburg played Belfry, i'm so glad that Pburg has alot for me to brag about this year tho..........:lame: :Angry07:

[BelfryPride]

I think it will be a good game. I still think it will be closer than ppl think. Belfry will be prepared, they won't underestimate the Blackcats. Like I said, this game scares me to death.....and though It's not for the district title as usual, it is a must win for Belfry as they will play Sheldon Clark for the District title next week at Belfry on homecoming.

Belfry 28
Pburg 14

I hope prestonsburg doesnt waste alot of money on fireworks...I know they will waste about 5000 before the game but im sure they will have some ready IF we win......

[Bat Masterson]

if sheldon clark and belfry end up with the same record in district play, one of the tie breakers is thier overall record....a loss against ironton puts belfry at a bad disadvantage.

Not exactly, a loss in your out of district schedule doesn't hurt you, it just doesn't help you any, and it only matters in a 3 way tie situation.

If there is a 2 way tie, then the winner of the head to head matchup gets the district title.

In the 3 way tie, if either of the 3 teams has beaten the other two, then that team wins the title. If all three teams have beaten each other (SC beats Pburg, Belfry beats SC and Pburg beats Belfry) then it comes down to non-district wins.

In that case, you get one point for every win by any non district opponent that you have beaten. And the team with the most points is district champ.

For instance, if Belfry beats Pikeville and Lawrence Co, and loses to Henry Clay and Ironton. And Pikeville has 7 wins and LC has 3, then Belfry would get 10 points.

Pburg didn't win any non-district games and so they would get 0 points

If SC beat Fairland and Knott Co, they would get points for each win that Fairland and Knott has. Say Fairland won 7 and Knott won 4 games, then SC would have 11 points and would win the district.

Second and third place would then be decided by the head to head battle between Belfry and Pburg. In this case, Pburg would be 2nd and Belfry would be 3rd.

Of course that is all hypothetical, but that is how it works.

[football05]

SO pburg doesnt have a chance LOL even if we beat belfry...

[BCF4L]

Well we do if P-burg beats Belfry and SC loses to SV and Belfry. Then we would win district given the fact we win the rest of the district games.

[football05]

ok i was thinking that but wasnt sure...what ya into buddy?

[football05]

IF is the biggest word right now in prestonsburg.......IF a frog had wings he wouldnt bump his *** everytime he jumped lol......

Of course that is all hypothetical, but that is how it works.
What he said... lol
Lets do some hypothetical thinking:
Say Belfry loses to Pburg by 2 points.... then Belfry beats Sheldon Clark by 2.

All three teams then run the table in the district and Pburg finishes 5-5, SC finishes 7-3 overall, and Belfry finishes 7-3 with a loss to Ironton also.

Now we have three teams with one loss in district play who has defeated each other by 2 points in every case.... at this point would the tiebreaker involving out of district opposition come into play? If so... and say Belfry non-district wins (Pikeville and LC) win less games than the SC non-dstirct winners? Then SC wins the district title although the lost to Belfry?


Same situation except Belfry beats Ironton,,,then the Pirates are crowned the district champs with their 8-2 record and a ton of non-dstrict tiebreaker points?

Does the margin of victory even matter in this? Could Pburg beat Belfry by 3, then Belfry only beat SC by 1, and the Blackcats suddenly be the champs? Or could Belfry lose by 7,,, then turnaround and beat SC by 14 and be the district champs just from that?


As I mentioned earlier...I REALLY hope the Ironton game doesn't put all of our major playoff hopes on the line.

[football05]

I dont think it matters how many points you beat someone....its who you win/lose to....i hope i read that correctly?

[Red and Black]

Does the quality of the non-district games come into play, like say, in 1A if there is a 3-way tie for first, paintsville has played alot of weak opposition and pikeville has played a really tough non-district schedule, but Paintsville has more non-district wins than Pikeville has, who would be the champ of this, if Hazard were in a 3-way tie with Pikeville and Paintsville


I'm so confused by the way, lol

[football05]

Bat im sure you can tell us all....heck I bet your typing it up right now to give us a 3 page explanation LOL your the genious here

[BelfryPride]

Well, Belfry can avoid all of this if they take care of buisness with Sheldon Clark & Prestonsburg.

[Beef]

It's really confusing....so lets not think about it unless it happens...lol...so many records that you have to look at.

But I did it for Class A if it were to happen -- GO HERE (http://www.bluegrassrivals.com/extreme3/forum/showthread.php?t=12240) -- This should help you understand what happens. Hopefully :thumb:

[Rocky]

In my opinion,Pburg needs a lil more work to be able to take on Belfry. But we shall see :)

[Beef]

Welcome to the site Rocky :welcome:

[Rocky]

How do i change that im a teeballer? lol

[Rocky]

Thanks Beef

[Bat Masterson]

Overall record doesn't play into it, just district record.
Margin of victory has nothing to do with it either.

If all 3 teams tie with identical records, and they each have beaten each other, then the tie breaker comes into play.

The only thing that matters then is how many point you get for your non district wins. See Beef's explanation in the thread he linked to above. He nailed it.

[Beef]

How do i change that im a teeballer? lol
Post...they change automatically

[Red and Black]

So the tiebreaker points stay the same no matter how strong or weak each non-district opponent is?

[The Cheem]

I will be there decked out in all red body paint, hair color red, red boxers on, and a pirate flag tied around like a cape.......

[shafter9]

Great should be a killer game...
Go cats

[BelfryPride]

Welcome to the board Rocky....glad to have another Belfry fan here

[Beef]

So the tiebreaker points stay the same no matter how strong or weak each non-district opponent is?
Yup...but if you can beat those strong non-district oponents then their wins over other teams will help you. That's the plus to it :thumb:

[Bat Masterson]

So the tiebreaker points stay the same no matter how strong or weak each non-district opponent is?

Sort of...

If you beat Jenkins, you're not going to get many points, because they aren't going to have many wins. But if you beat Pikeville, you will get several points because Pikeville will have several wins.

If it comes down to it, the Ironton game for Belfry will be huge because the Tigers will have several wins. Likewise, Sheldon Clark would be cheering for Fairland Oh the rest of the season so they could rack up more points.

[frozone]

Hey Blackcats......FROZONE gonna lead the PIRATES to your endzone.....pirates by as much as they want!!!:wenumber1 :moon: :redboxer:

[frozone]

P-burg of course. They are gonna be ready. 2 weeks of practice should get them ready for this game.

they have been practicing the last 2 years and aint got the job done

[BelfryPride]

Hey Blackcats......FROZONE gonna lead the PIRATES to your endzone.....pirates by as much as they want!!!:wenumber1 :moon: :redboxer:

Go Pirates !!!!:Skull03:

[blackcat]

they have been practicing the last 2 years and aint got the job done

I don't think there was any need for that, he was just stating his opinion. But you are correct, P-burg's hardest week of practice comes before they play Belfry every year and they just can't seem to beat them. Should be a great game this Friday.

[football05]

Well guys this is BELFRY week and no one really getting into any action...WHATS WRONG with you all......this is one of the biggest rivalries in the state....Thank you frozone for tying to get everything started I would like this thread to reach over 200 post count but I dont see it happening.....Its like this year no one cares.......WHATS WRONG THIS YEAR NO ONE IS ARGUEING OR IN HEATED DISCUSSIONS....thats what makes it a RIVALRY game.....NO im not saying come in here and start cussing someone out or taking it to extreme measures but people lets have some discussions freindly style...................

[BelfryPride]

I guess it's because Belfry & P'Burg seem to match up welland have almost identical records. This year it's lost some if the spark because on paper it's a mismatch. Belfry is 5-1. Prestonsburg is 1-5....thats a big difference. I still believe the game will be closer than some think. And for the third time I have said this....This game scares me alot.

[LCwildcatJR]

i haven't been able to watch Belfry play this year. how did they adjust to the loss of two of the best runningbacks in the state in jones and howard? also what happened to howard? i heard he went to Pikeville College but after watching play in last years state game i figured he should have went somewhere bigger.

[BelfryPride]

We have adjusted quite well. We have Dustin May, Matt Maynard & Corey Chapman in the backfield. Our entire offensive and defensive lines are back from last year. Our secondary is a little young but coming along real good now.

Doug Howard went to Pikeville College and David Jones went to Kentucky.

[LCwildcatJR]

thats good to hear for the pirates. it may just be me, but do you think doug howard shouldve went somewhere bigger?

[LCwildcatJR]

good luck pirates!!! i love mountain teams!!! corn-bread-fed baby!!!

[BelfryPride]

thats good to hear for the pirates. it may just be me, but do you think doug howard shouldve went somewhere bigger?

Marshall wanted him, but they backed out after that State Championship game....He wanted to stay closer to home anyway

[football05]

So if marshall hadnt backed out he woulda went to marshall?

[WOW]

What happened to the Robinson kid from P-burg? Read some about him during preseason here on BGR. Haven't heard his name mentioned since the first of the season. Is he injured?

[football05]

umm he quit

[football05]

players told me he told coach D he thgouth he shoudl get the ball more...and coachD said im the coach if you dont like it pack ya bags and leave SO he did.....

[football05]

he didnt just quit this week so it wont impact fridays game any.......hes been gone for 3 weeks now.....

[Tomcat68]

I'm surprised this thread hasn't gotten more heated as well. With this being a rivalry game the score will almost always be much closer than the talent displayed on the field. Good Luck to both teams.

[BelfryPride]

Well, this game looks like a mismatch on paper.Both teams wants this game alot. This game will be a good one, it will be a close one.

I HEAR RAIN IS IN FORECAST AND COLD.......WOO i think this helps pburg more might be low scoring......

I HEAR RAIN IS IN FORECAST AND COLD.......WOO i think this helps pburg more might be low scoring......


Hold on there football05.......

Belfry has'nt been playing on turf that long yet. We'll we the practice field down to get used to it if we have to.....Remember we have those FIRETRUCKS at our disposal.....:) :) :) :shh:

Whatever it takes !!!!

[football05]

yea yea...we dont have to use firetrucks we just rely on good lord himself LOL

and we arent like breathitt and cover the field up either.....but thats a different story :shh:

[BCF4L]

I think Prestonsburg's schedule so far this year will help them out. Every team that P-burg has been beaten by this year has a winning record. Whether it be single A or double A teams. This will help them out. Prestonsburg has developed the past two weeks and you can see a big difference in them from the beginning of the year. I think P-burg will be up for the challenge tonight. I really don't think Belfry can hang with them. Belfry will be a thing in the past after tonight cuz P-burg is going to lay a thumping on Belfry.

[sportscrazy]

Go Cats!! I can't wait and we finally get to dance at a home game!

[eingram003]

Go Pirates, beat the Blackcats

Yeah, beating up on poor Magoffin by 60+ points is a real confidence booster...;)

We will be a thing of the past ? :moon:

Lay a thumping on Belfry ? :rolleyes:

Gee, I wonder if the Blackcats will be able to backup all the smacktalk ??? We shall see I suppose.
The Refs for the game are P'Burg graduates I've heard...Class of 1980..:BigLaugh:

[BCF4L]

Yeah looks like someone is scared to play us. Already thinking of excuses for the loss. Blaming it on graduates of P-burgs being the refs. Good try. :) . I;m trying to stir up trouble if you haven't noticed. LOL

[BelfryPride]

How times has Prestonsburg beat'n Belry in the last 5 or 6 years?


Belfry/Prestonsburg started in 1999 when Belfry dropped from 3A to 2A. Belfry
currently leads the series 6-3.

1999 = Belfry -27 P'Burg -6
2000 = P'Burg -20 Belfry -14 (2OT)
2001 = P'Burg -40 Belfry -14 (Reg.Season)
2001 = P'Burg -34 Belfry -14 (Playoffs)
2002 = Belfry -21 P'Burg -12
2003 = Belfry -35 P'Burg -12 (Reg.Season)
2003 = Belfry -27 P'Burg -19 (Playoffs)

Yeah looks like someone is scared to play us. Already thinking of excuses for the loss. Blaming it on graduates of P-burgs being the refs. Good try. :) . I;m trying to stir up trouble if you haven't noticed. LOL

I know what your trying to do good buddy, Im just giving a little of the smack talk back....:) :redboxer: :ChairHit: :PirateSho

[johnsmith]

thanks bp

[BlackcatAlum]

Alright this is what I think If Pburg comes in fired up :
Pburg----28
Belfry----21

If they dont:
Pburg----14
Belfry----35

[football05]

You all can bet your bottom dollar PBURG will be fired up for sure...I mean its BELFRY

[BlackcatAlum]

I hope they will because im getting tired of heaing about us running up the score on magoffin co. when we didnt because the freshman scored the last 5 or 6 tuchdowns.

[football05]

ahh man let it go that game is OVER.....im not saying that to be a pric k or nehting but people will always be haters on pburg.....

[BlackcatAlum]

Well it looks like rain is going to be visiting Blackcat stadium friday night .

[BelfryPride]

Bring on the Rain, the Refs and the Blackcats cause the Pirates are ready....!!!!

Go Pirates !!!!!!

[football05]

countdown to kick off would be 12 hours and 14 minutes:dance:

[johnsmith]

why does Belfry's fullback get more carries than the halfbacks?

[football05]

well I would guess most of the time the Linebackers are looking for the sweep or something from the halfback and coach haywood loves to run BELLY DIVE with his FB's. If i was a betting man thats what I would bet on johnsmith......he us just runs a hardnose running football team and is really good at it....i guess you can say it catches the other team off guard a little bit, then when they expect the FB dive again he runs a sweep play or option and goes for 6.......

[Bat Masterson]

why does Belfry's fullback get more carries than the halfbacks?

The belly series and triple option feeds off establishing the fullback. Next time you watch them play, watch the linebackers and tackles on the defense when Belfry has the ball. Everytime that fullback takes the handoff up the middle, the LB and T have to respect it or he will run it right up the middle for big gains.

Then when they fake the fullback and run the option, or give it to the 2nd back on the belly outside of the tackle and it goes for a big big gain, you can be thankful that the fullback has been doing his job all night.

I'd rather watch a more balanced offense that throws the ball some, but you can't argue with the succes Coach Haywood has had over there. And if you understand it, his offense can be a lot of fun to watch.

[football05]

well put BAT....mine was similar but yours was pretty much spelled out..and most of the time the big big gain will put you 6 on the score board if the other team is poor at tackling......

i like Belfry by 3 td's:wenumber1

Now that it's gameday:

Prediction: Belfry 28
PBurg 7

Analysis: The only thing that will cause Belfry to lose is Belfry. The Pirates have an advantage in talent, advantage in team speed, advantage in consistency, advantage in the trenches, and have proven themselves through the course of the year. The Blackcat defense has been torched a few times and their offense has struggled as well. Shafer has struggled in his career vs. Belfry and expect the same to happen again. The Blackcats will hang tough but too much Belfry advantages to overcome.

Thats good battle of who is going to be louder ?

[jayblackcat2006]

I'd say that Prestonsburg vs. Belfry has some of the highest attendance showings in all of 2A if not the highest... I'm not giving a prediction, but I'm P'burg born and raised so I'm hoping the Cats can pull it out.

[Rocky]

This is my call: Belfry 47- Pburgh 8 !! Im done :)
