[#1 Blackcat Fan]

Is there really a need for a poll? Based on comments from Somerset fans, do we even need a game? I vote we just let the boys settle this on the field. Prestonsburg has come further than anyone ever expected this season and I for one am very proud of those boys. They may not run a 4.4 forty but they have more heart and drive than any team I've seen this season. I wish both teams much luck Friday night and pray for a safe game.

I am also proud of these young men. I have actually been one of a very select few who have said most all year this team could be dangerous come playoff time.

These boys are not the biggest, fastest, strongest, nor most athletic team Prestonsburg has ever had. These boys do play to their ability and play with more heart than any team at Prestonsburg the last 3 years. That is the simple reason I have said for some time now they could be dangerous come playoffs. Guess what.... its the 3rd round and we are still here.

At the start of the season on paper Somerset was state bound. Anybody would have picked them to beat the Blackcats by 4 td's, and rightfully so. Injuries plagued Somerset all year as well as the Blackcats. Both are probably more healthy now than they have been all year. Not to mention this is a very young Blackcat team that has grown leaps and bounds throughout the season. They are peaking at the right time.

Prestonsburg's offense is not what it has been in the past few years, but the defense is the best I have seen in the last 3 years. I look for this game to be one hell of a battle between 2 great programs.

I for one think most of the Somerset fans on here are a classy bunch of folks. I hope for an injury free game for both teams.

Git'er done boys.
