[Proud Ram Fan 1168]

Didn't think about that! Could be packed if all those fans show up. I really hope the Panther fans show up and support this team. They play with a ton of heart and passion and do it the right way. This game is a huge corner, let's turn it Panthers!

First of all congrats to both teams. Making it to the regional finals is a great thing to do for your school in so many ways. It pulls you together.
I think you are sooooo right Panther Thunder. I've said it on here before. Pikeville respects this game. They go out and play with heat. They play with respect. They celebrate. But don't go overboard each and every play. Acting out whatever. The panthers play the game different. I for one would love to pull for the eagles in this championship game. They are in our district. And only a couple miles down the road. But by the actions of the coaches, fans and players I can't. I'll just come out and say it. The fans, players and coaching staff of the Pikeville Panthers would represent our region alot better then the eagles of Fairview. From fans, players to coaches. The panthers Don't go out and act like thugs. The players don't act out thug like scenes each and every play. The panthers knock you on your ass. Then the panther players help you back up. Pat you on the back or helmet. And go to the huddle. It's a respect thing that comes down from parents and through the coaching staff.
This is going to be a hard fought game. If the eagles can't stop the QB of Pikeville. It will be a long game for the eagles. If the Panthers can't stop the backs of the eagles on the corners. The eagles could be going on to the state. Pikeville's kicking game is by far the best I have seen in high school football in years. The kid can flatout kick. Pikeville has the better QB hands down. He runs with speed and power. He rolls out when flushed out and can still hit his receivers on a dead run or tuck and run it with the best. The Panther defense is kind of a bend but don't break defense. The eagles have the better backs. A trio of them. Littlejohn imo is a back you better wrap up and hold on to. He won't go down easy. He's tough! Stop the big boy up the middle. And hold down those corners. Thats how you beat Fairview. Hasn't been done yet. But I believe the panthers have the talent to come out of Westwood a winner. And I for one hope they do! GO PANTHERS!
