It's never the Bell County fans that start the crap. It's fans of other neighboring teams that have spent some miserable seasons lately watching the JC program take off, and now that we finally have EKY's hardest schedule during a rebuilding year, they're enjoying taking their shots. We know all you people would like to see Matney go away so you have a chance of being the best team on the Big Sandy again, but it's not happening. Sorry.

This game was 6-6 going into halftime, fyi, when Bell County threw a screen pass on the last play of the half from the 50 just trying to make something happen and Davenport bounced off an arm tackle and cut it back and scored. That made it 14-6 at halftime and then JC lost the edge and turned into the team that played the first two game. We did manage to play about 23:50 of pretty decent football, though, which is an improvement over the last two games. No fumbles from the QB position all game long, either, another improvement.

Hopefully, we get the four suspended players back next week and also Dillon back from injury. Hard to play a team like Bell County without your best running back/starting DB, probably your best lineman on both sides of the ball, and three other players who see a lot of time. You can call it an excuse if you want, but let's take that kind of talent away from your team and let YOU line it up with Bell County and see how YOU do.
