Not sure why pburg dropped, I'd put valley and pburg ahead of danville

[#1 Blackcat Fan]

EKU most of the time you make sense, but this weeks rankings have me puzzled. On your September 30th rankings you had Prestonsburg at #7. Since then they have went on the road and defeated Hazard and a very good Shelby Valley team. With the exception of Pikeville the next two best teams on the schedule thus far.

The #10 team that week was Danville who beat 3-4 Campbellsville and barely got by a winless Somerset team. Two weeks later they jump 3 spots and Prestonsburg drops 1 below them. I would love to hear your reasoning behind that?

2A is a crap shoot beyond about #5... that's my reasoning HAHA

Seriously though, Garrard County made Danville look even better this week. Danville is Garrard's lone loss and they just waxed Bourbon County. Corbin also continues to make Danville look good. Shelby Valley I would not quantify as "very good". I moved them to #10 by default after playing P-burg close (and subsequently the rest of the class being a crap shoot), but truth be told I expected P-burg to handle that game with relative ease.

The truth is based off of recent scores I think teams 6-9 and teams 10-15 all can jumble around at this point.

So you moved Shelby Valley up (which I don't have a problem with) because they played the team dropping in your rankings (Prestonsburg) a close game. You moved Danville up because they had a 1 point win at home to Garrard County in week 2 who beat Bourbon in week 7 which is your #9 team in 3A.

Prestonsburg's only loss game on the road in the final seconds by 1 point to the team you have ranked #1 in East KY, #2 in 1A, who beat your #1 team in #3A for there only loss.

Well still don't make sense EKU. :eyeroll:

I think EKU has a touch of ROPCDS ("Rest of Pike Co. Disrespect Syndrome"). It's a common affliction of many football fans of northern Pike Co..

He moved P-burg down for the close game to Shelby Valley and can't make himself give full credit for the 1pt loss to Pikeville. Don't ride him too hard, he can't help himself.

nicker:



But seriously... can't see what #4-#7 have done to earn a higher rank than P-burg, especially Glasgow and Bardstown...

And yes...I will openly say the reason I punished Pburg was a very tight win over Shelby Valley in a game that even Pburg fans acknowledge was just two fairly even matched teams going at it. SV is not a team that should be in the discussion for a Top 7 ranking in 2A... they are a team who has lost to 1A Paintsville as well... a Top 5 team in 2A should have rocked Valley by at least 3 TD's.

Maybe I am wrong about SV.. we will see come playoffs if they can win a couple playoff games.

I guess my bigger issue with Pburg is the fact they have had an opportunity to make a statement and separate themselves the favorite in the East, but have yet to do so. They collected a good close win against hazard....and the SV and PC wins aren't bad wins... but for a team thinking of making a run to Bowling Green (which a Top 5 team in 2A would be from the East) I was expecting them to make a little more of a statement of dominance. Fairview and Wburg put PC away.... yet Pburg couldn't?

[oneijoe]

Who said anything about Glasgow ole timer?:biggrin:

duh.... I meant Murray (I guess I AM an ole timer!!). Though they may before season end, neither Murray nor Bardstown have a real argument to be ranked higher than P-burg.

I see you are still avoiding post #7. :eyeroll:

No one said Shelby Valley was top 7 in 2A, but how do you reward Valley for the loss and discredit Prestonsburg for the win?

I didn't want to bring this up because I don't want it to sound like I am discrediting SV because that is not my intention. Prestonsburg was missing some key players in the Valley game. Starting Center Goodman, DB/WR Marcum, and LB/RB Ousley who leads the team in tackles. I knew Marcum would be out in this game because he is out for the season, but in my prediction I didn't know we would be missing the other two. Ousley is a huge difference maker on Prestonsburg's defense. We didn't win by as many as I nor several others thought, but in my opinion that had to do with Valley being better than most thought and Prestonsburg missing key players. We did do what good teams do though. We plugged in other players and still pulled out a win we was suppose to win.

So now it is we didn't beat Valley by enough and since Fairview & Williamsburg put Pike Central away and Prestonsburg only won by 9. Just so you know also that was the 1st game Marcum was out so some adjustments was being made in the secondary.

I guess Danville's narrow win (21-19) over a winless Somerset team didn't come into the equation although apparently Prestonsburg's 9 point win over a team who handled them pretty easily does. nicker:

Come on EKU you have to do better than that.

[KYHSFBFan]

I have a feeling Murray is better than OB cath or Bardstown, but, not sure they deserve quite that high a ranking yet.. If they play Caldwell close or win, then, I'd definately have no problem putting them up there..

[new o]

Pburg is a legit top 5 team in 2A and I have that all year. Shelby Valley is better than people realize. SV also played without their starting middle linebacker. Pburg scored one TD aginst SV when their starting corner went out to clean blood off his arm, Pburg attacked the new corner which is what good teams do. Bottom line is certain schools in Pike County cannot stand to give a non-traditional football school any credit because it would cut into their recruiting base. Pburg has a great chance at playing in BG and if SV cannot make a run I am cheering for Pburg.

[KYHSFBFan]

I believe the top 3 2a teams would make a case to be #1 in 3a and #2 in 4a and 5a..

I think I agree...and would add CAL (#3) into that, too. The western half of 2A has 3 really great teams this year !!

Lol if you want. Prestonsburg had your mighty panthers beat if not for some VERY poor coaching mistakes and everyone who was at that game knows it. This is a 2A thread. Get back to the 1A thread and prepare for your dismantlement by Williamsburg.

Never mind. There's only one team in 1A that i would give any credence to, and they are moving up to 2A next year. I really hope your not touting Williamsburg. DeSales, Caldwell, and CAL would put a running clock on them.
