Maybe so...but you had a good running back last year to...only time will tell...i hope it is a good game...but we both gotta make it to there...we been playing like crap lately but hopefully we get all cylinders goin

You nailed it on the head, Bourbon had a highly touted and very gifted runningback last year, but a very subpar line. Holman is not better than Hopkins overall, but runs much harder and finds his hole full speed. The line is much better this year making the holes a little easier to find.

With Pope, I truly thought Bourbon had a chance at state with a very dynamic offense and more than capable defense. This game would have been the game of the year in 3a football IMO.

Without Pope, Bourbon is very one dimensional and will need its defense to keep them in the game with the Belfry's of the world as they are a big play team, and those big plays will be very limited against higher quality opponents.
