Jonathan Jackson didn't sit the entire second half, but he was very limited. I believe he scored one if not both of Mayfield's late scores, the ones that put them back into "striking distance". They were in every bit the same striking distance that Central was against Bowling Green in the playoffs, which is to say they were down a score but never had the ball with a chance to erase the deficit all the way.

Comparing games and margins is a tricky business. Do you believe South Warren could compete with Mayfield simply because both teams beat Russellville by the same margin? To use South Warren as an example, did they suddenly get 31 points better in a month from when they got throttled by Monroe County to when they pushed them to within 10 in the region finals?

I'll admit that I believed going into the game that if Graves and Central lined up 5 times, WC would win 5. Maybe it's more like 4 out of 5. But I believe the game they played would have been that 1 out of the 5 that Graves had a shot at winning, and they didn't convert. Look up the statistics, they were absolutely dominated by WC. Graves managed to hold them out of the end zone (which IS the only thing that matters), and that gave them their chance. My hats off to them now as it was then.

If that's the game that makes people forget about Central winning head to head over Mayfield, so be it. I suppose Mayfield would have given Bowling Green a better game the following week.

I am not even saying WC wouldnt have still beat us with Jackson i am just trying to understand their thinking on the matter. Based on them being a bigger school and only losing to BG. I still think WC should have been higher but I also think Graves would beat Caldwell by 10 to 14 and should be in the top 5.
