[HAIL PIKEVILLE!]

This was a game that was a gift to Belfry, and people know how I love the Pirates. Pikeville led 6-0 and that's the way the game should have ended. Pikeville had a long touchdown run called back or it never would have gotten to Belfry's final drive. Belfry had a long way to go and they threw a long bomb. There were multiple Pikeville defenders back and one Belfry receiver and it was a jump ball and Pikeville intercepts, game over, right? wrong. Interference on Pikeville. Next pass, incomplete. Questionable interference at best. Next play. Interference no doubt. A Pikeville defender wiped out a Belfry receiver across the middle and left time for one more play. Final play, a pass to Brad Hatfield in the corner of the endzone toward the concession stand end at Vipperman. Then I believe Mike Hardin booted the extra point. Field was crappy and muddy and that was it. I watched all the last few plays from about 10 feet away on the sideline. Pirates got an early Christmas present that night, but Oh well.

The Pikeville DB who wiped out the Belfry receiver on the final interference call was none other than the late Brent Coleman. I remember asking him why he done that after wed just got 2 DPI penalties in a row? Ill never forget his reply. "The only way they werent going to throw a flag is if he caught it. I wasnt going to let him catch it." LOL!
