All season long, I've wondered why everyone thinks Paintsville will beat Raceland this year. Kash Daniel Paintsville teams haven't ever come close to Raceland.

Reality this year, though, is that Raceland is one miracle at Lawrence County away from being a very mediocre 4-4 team while Paintsville is an undefeated WWE-style interviewing team with tons of confidence and swagger. I'm sure Paintsville will smell the blood of the Rams as they enter the field Friday night. This is their chance to make them pay for the past few beatdowns that Raceland has delivered to the Tigers.

The biggest question to me in this one is does Raceland have the heart to fight back? I am not sure based on what I've seen of the Rams this season.
