Exactly, and you sure don't see many 2A teams beefing up their schedules with 3A competition or 4A for that matter. Hurley's sos definitely hurt them this year, but come on. Are they supposed to play Richlands, Union, Graham, Giles, and Appomattox?

Sorry if the hyperlink doesn't open. September 5th 2013 Bristol Courier "History with Hayes". VHSL ruled the field wasn't suitable for play for Appalachia and Jonesville so they moved the games to Bullit Park. Appalachia played in 1992 & 96. Jonesville won their 1988 title their too. Article doesn't mention Clintwood but I'm not sure why they couldn't have played at home though. VHSL may have ruled the same but seems Clintwood always had a playable field.
St Paul had a great rb/lb around 1989. #44 Benny Burrell?? Sadly someone told me he drowned saving somebody. He reminded me of Haysi's #44 Tito Mock, who also sadly passed away but due to a motorcycle accident.
Hurley's average score is 58-18. As crazy as that sounds, that's what I'm going with. At least in round 1. It's going to be exciting to see what the Rebels are really made of in a couple weeks.
OK Ryan, give it up, where do you need to be the next two Friday's? Seems you get your way on Friday/Saturday games:-) Seriously though work kills any Friday nights for me. By the time I get home and get ready, I would be pushing it to make it to any Friday game. Also, It's something about the glaring sun and dead grass that I like about Saturday playoffs.
