Are these two 1A power houses a definite top 10 team in the state for the 07 season???

Interesting thread.

If it were the same make-up of teams in 1A as last year, I'd say Hazard -- by virtue of winning head-to-head their last meeting and both teams losing basically similar quantity/quality players (I think Pikeville returns almost all their skill -- except one shifty receiver...and Hazard returns all their skill except one shifty receiver; both lose two or three I think of their strongest linemen on both sides of the ball) would be in the bottom half of the top 10 and Pikeville on the outside looking in.

Too many question-marks at the qb spot...and don't they say, "you're only as good as your last game!?" If so, one would have to say that right now, Pikeville could not be considered very good -- probably played their 2nd or 3rd worst game of the season.
