Whatever happens, it will be a huge crowd and game. Like you said, people knew Paintsville was improved, but I don't think anyone expected that kind of game. And like you said, the Prestonsburg and Hazard games were draining. The good thing about this year is that last year leaves the Panthers no excuse. They saw first hand what Paintsville is capable of and they will have to come out ready to play or get beat. Pikeville will be coming off two very big games again, and would be very happy to be 2-0, not sure what Paintsville's schedule looks like, but we should see a Top-10 Class A match up in back-to-back weeks at Hambley with big, playoff-like atmospheres. Can't wait.

Agreed. Just hope Paintsville brings that huge crowd they had at Paintsville last year to Pikeville for this game. When was the last time Paintsville brought a big crowd to an away game? Even to Pikeville? 2014 should be the year their fans start traveling with their team again.
