[Fly Like a Duck]

Larue Co. had a little trouble with Union Co. Caldwell did not. So even tho Larue is 11-1, Caldwell by 21 points.

LaRue had about 375 yards of offense vs Union; 280+ of that coming on the ground.

They held Union to 110 total yards, and their dang good RB who had rushed for 396 the week before against Murray to 61 yards on 19 carries. Union probably had 2/3 of their total yards on the first drive of the game. After that it was LaRue’s D that played absolutely lights out.

LaRue had two fumbles in the first half (their first fumbles since week 3 mind you; yes...week 3). Their first fumble came on their first drive deep in Union territory, and the 2nd on the last play of the first half inside the Union 1 yard line going into score.

They took a knee to end the game on the Union 10.

Caldwell might beat LaRue by 21, but LaRue didn’t have any trouble with Union.

Terrible field conditions; two “old school” styles of attack. LaRue dominated; the score just wasn’t indicative of that.

Family affair game- LaRue County HFC Josh Jaggers and Caldwell County QB Joby Jaggers are cousins.

Caldwell is definitely the favorite. LaRue is playing with house money, and with their style of offense and a defense that is pretty solid they might have a shot? Long road trip, hostile environment, two programs that are on polar opposite ends of the spectrum....one a region final and/or state final member the last several years and another in LaRue who just won only their 3rd playoff game in the last 11 years.

I know LaRue absolutely dominated the time of possession against E-town; especially in the 1st half. E-town was only up 14-7 at the half and one of those was a kickoff return for six. If LaRue can put together a similar game plan against Caldwell (controlling the clock and play some solid D; they made some stops vs E-town believe it or not) then this could get interesting?
