Russell Co was too fast for Whitley. Same ole Whitley, move the ball well but just cant score enough. With the schedule Whitley plays, they could be looking at 3-7 again. The youngster for Whitley looked good out of the backfield. Can't remember his name but he needs more touches. And even though RUTG will disagree, throw the ball some before you get behind 21-0 or 28-7.

Mills will be a good player, but what a lot of people have to understand is this is still a young team. We would pass the ball if we could. Im not disagreeing with you there. I would assume the yardage totals were about identical, if not in favor of Whitley. Big plays killed us and we will adjust.
IMO, we wont face a team nearly as good in our region, and that includes Harlan County. 3-7 is a possibility, with the schedule being the way it is, but i can see a 5-5 year or 6-4. These game will get us ready for the playoffs as were more experienced than we were last year.

It was 28-14 with 3 minutes left in the third with Whitley around Russell's 35 and driving, but as i said, a few stupid plays and penalties stopped that and sealed our fate.

These were a two good years, and after this year Russell will no longer be on the schedule. Good luck to you guys as the season progresses. If Russell County ever had a chance at an upset in the playoffs it would be this year.
