You know what. Call me a fool but I actually feel pretty confident about this game. I do agree that this game reminds me of the Russell/Belfry game in 04. But for different reasons. In that game Belfry had played some tough games and been tested throughout the season. Russell was breezing through that 04 season. They were never really challenged util the semifinals against the Pirates.

The roles seem to be reversed in this one. Russell has played a VERY GOOD Mason Co team twice along with Raceland and Simon Kenton late in the year. They have seen spread teams and they have seen power teams.

Breathitt really hasn't been challenged since LCA and before that by Prestonsburg and Boyd County early in the season.

I'm not being cocky on this one but I do like Russell's chances.

I'm not saying that we cannot beat these guys, I know we can...It's just that I have that nervous feeling about this game and I haven't had it in awhile...This year's team concerns me against a passing team like Breathitt because I believe their passing attack is probably a little better than Mason's and Mason moved the ball through the air pretty well all night...

I'll get a better idea of what to expect after I see Tracy on Tuesday...We'll compare them to O-Cath...Right Tracy!!
