Congrats to Pikeville on the win. Both teams came out hyped up and was a scoreless first quarter. Both teams settled down and established offensively what the other team was giving them. The big difference in this game was the composure of the Pikeville players and coaching staff. Belfry turnovers and some costly penalties cost them the game. The Pikeville defense stood tall and made all the big plays. Offensively we need to give credit to the left side of the Pikeville o line. They controlled the line of scrimmage in the second half. Big #76 was the best lineman on the field in my opinion. Establishing the run opened up the wide open passes. Mac and Pugh made some great plays. The biggest problem Belfry has is they cannot play from behind with only the running game and zero passing game.

The Pirates play hard and is always tough and athletic. Especially at home. But the overall size of the Belfry players and team depth does not seam to be there. They have some work. But should be right in the mix if healthy in November.
As far as the coaches. I agree coach Mac and staff out coached Haywood and staff this year. I can’t believe the number of Belfry posters calling them out. Maybe it’s time for a change. Lol

This is the thing that has surprised me more than anything else as well. The all time winningest coach in Kentucky history and 6 time state champion as well as 6 time runner up has been repeatedly been called out on this thread. That's the real head scratcher. If you all don't want Coach Haywood anymore, I'm sure there would be many schools who would love to have him. Congrats Panthers on your victory.
