As many can tell, I have not made a serious prediction yet, and I have been dodging this question all week. I mentioned in another post and on Facebook that I have a weird feeling about this game. This is a non-district game that neither team really cares about in the long run. Outside of BGR, this will not become a rivalry. Next week the real season starts.

With ALL the factors counted in, I DID pick Perry in the pickem contest, and I made the avatar bet with MVP2 earlier in the year, taking Rock, either way I lose something.

Even with Clark predicted to play, as RockSolid69 reported, I do not see him getting a lot of carries. He has had less than 20 carries in every game this season anyway. I am sure they want him to remain healthy for the district opener next week. Many times someone is cleared to play and is not really 100%, especially in high school where the rules are not really in place to enforce things like that.

If Clark gets limited carries, Luna, Reams and McDaniel have proved that they are worthy backs and can get the necessary yards between them. Now that it has rained and soaked the field pretty good, Mountain football is gonna be played. Receivers are going to have a tough time with jerk routes and getting great speed routes down the field, so the playbook will close a little for Perry as well.

This game will REALLY profile B.B. Bradley and Matt Robinson. The linebackers are going to steal the show. Robinson may have 20 tackles and a couple of sacks in this game. He is gonna show why he is a force to be reckoned with, and that is certainly a PerryCC advantage.

One Rockcastle County advantage is going to be on the offensive line. In the mud and muck it is much harder to dig in for pass protection than it is for pushing forward for the run. For fear of producing locker room material, lol, I think Rock's O-line is better, and they will show it tonight.

With all of that said, with the wet field forcing a close game, I will predict a 1 point Rockcastle victory. My head tells me Perry wins by 8, my heart tells me Rock by 1.

If I was told that Rock had to lose by 100 to PerryCC to win by 1 against Russell County, I would take it. It is fun to jab and cut up with Perry fans on here, but even they would say in their heart of hearts that OTHER than historical revenge, this game doesn't mean that much to them either. May the best team win, may the players be safe, and may the crowds be controlled.

As many can tell, I have not made a serious prediction yet, and I have been dodging this question all week. I mentioned in another post and on Facebook that I have a weird feeling about this game. I also believe that Rock is looking ahead to the HUGE district game next week. They may be either resting up for Russell County, looking forward to it, or keeping the playbook closed a little bit. This is a non-district game that neither team really cares about in the long run. Outside of BGR, this will not become a rivalry. Next week the real season starts.

Let me rephrase what I said above. I think Rock will keep a little closed off this week. Scott does not need this game, and no offense intended, but PerryCC's tradition is not a clean one. He will probably be content with getting out, win lose or draw. Obviously, a win is what is desired, but the health of players and a clean game and crowd is more important.

Good post but i going to say that tonight they will be a suprise player do well one on each team that hasnt played much will have big game. idk any of PCC bench or underclassmen but they be someone step up for them that usually just plays sparingly and same on Rocks side of the ball

How long drive from Richmond to the feild?? THANKS

[LWC]

^LOOOOONNNGGGG drive! I would guess 2 hours plus!

My wife (girlfriend at the time) lived there for a little while and the parkway from London to Hazard is such a long boring drive. It is 61 miles of 55 speedlimit road. Many people fly on it, and many people get pulled over, lol.

[ole_blue_sack_15]

How long drive from Richmond to the feild?? THANKS

you could leave at 5 and make it with plenty of time

[LWC]

It might be faster to go up to Lexington and take the other parkway (what's it called?)

I have traveled to a lot of games with RockSolid69, he gets there early, so if I was him, I would hit up Zaga's hot-dog stand

Guys let's keep it cool and on the Topic. This is about PCC/Rock not about something that happened at the beginning of the year. Don't be cussing at someone, calling someone names or anything, if it keeps up the thread will be closed!

If you have a problem with stats, can't you just ask your head coach about them?
