First of all, we apologize for this article being so long. However, if you really have an interest in KHSAA football you should read it anyway. In this article we analyze 15-huge matchups. These are the critical matchups which will shape classification races as we embark on this 2026 season. We will be talking about these games plus some others come Saturday morning on “Friday Night Kentucky.” Thanks for your support.

LCA travels to Danville for the Rebel Bowl to play a 5A finalist in Pulaski County; we pick a winner in this week’s @eCampusdotcom Big Men on the eCampus Feature of the Week @eCampusdotcom, @nick_greer2028, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @LCAEAGLESFB, @CoachDCharles, @matthewmont57, @Oakley_Watkins, #Kentuckys #fletcherwlong #LeadershipLegacy #CoachingExcellence #MentorshipMatters #characterbuilding #SportsLeadership #BuildingChampions #kentuckyfootball #highschoolfootball #DisciplineAndDedication #athletics #successmindset #bookstagram #booklovers

We are doing something a little different this year. We will highlight individual performances like last season but we also want to give fans a “scouting report” on some of the pivotal games. This week, at the Rebel Bowl, the Eagles will play a team and be cast in an unfamiliar role; the role of “underdog,” a role to which LCA isn’t very accustomed. However, if the Eagles can emerge from this game 2-0, with consecutive wins over a quality 6A squad (North Hardin) and a 5A finalist from 2025 (Pulaski County), think of the boost it will provide the team’s RPI! Enjoy the scout. Go Eagles!

Bruce Willis (’27) from Murray High is the Bank of Cadiz & Trust Company Superior Performance, Exceptional Quality Player of the Week @KatherineL58069, @murrayhighFB, @MurrayQBClub, @LasatersCoffee, @eCampusdotcom, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @County_TigerFB, #Kentuckys #fletcherwlong #LeadershipLegacy #CoachingExcellence #MentorshipMatters #characterbuilding #SportsLeadership #BuildingChampions #kentuckyfootball #highschoolfootball #DisciplineAndDedication #athletics #successmindset #bookstagram #booklovers

Bruce Willis, a dual-threat, 2027 QB from West Tennessee who moved (luckily) into Murray High’s district this offseason, led his new team to an impressive, 58-50, double-overtime victory over Class 5A, first District contender Owensboro Apollo. Willis looks in firm control of Melvin Cunningham’s offense and able to deliver the type offensive production necessary for the Tigers to make another run at the Class 3A, KHSAA football title this year. Willis doesn’t throw it quite as well as last year’s QB (Wyatt Robbins) but he runs it better and the result in a dynamic, versatile offense that will be hard for 3A, western KY defenses to manage. Enjoy this inaugural, 2026, Bank of Cadiz Player of the Week. We’re playing for patches now, Men! Now, it gets serious! Enjoy the feature…

Sayre comes off a big battle against last year’s champion (Kentucky Country Day) looking to Jake Morita to set the pace! #Kentuckys #fletcherwlong #LeadershipLegacy #CoachingExcellence #MentorshipMatters #characterbuilding #SportsLeadership #BuildingChampions #kentuckyfootball #highschoolfootball #DisciplineAndD

Jake Morita is a weapon defensively at the second level of the Spartan defense. In addition to playing TE on offense, the 6’2, 205-pound junior mans a linebacker post and holds down a 4.2-GPA in a very ambitious and difficult college preparatory curriculum. Sayre had a big opener last night against a team which is defending at the 1A level and only returned three (3) starters, per side, from off its championship roster from a year ago. How did this all resolve? Better read this article, this morning, and we’ll tell you. Tune us in over the radio on “Friday Night Kentucky” and we’ll talk about it.

There are usually plenty of skill guys around a 6A program. That is the benefit of having such large enrollments in a sparsely populated state or commonwealth like Kentucky. The 6A programs which thrive are the programs which can produce and develop big men like Alex Schuster. When you have an All-State QB like Zane Johnson, the last thing a program needs is to permit easy access to him right up the A-Gap. So Trinity, the standard for 6A football in the commonwealth, protects its investment with a 300-pound interior guy with a 495-pound back squat and a 750-pound pull. Great idea! Today’s feature about a kid who is as good at the center slot as one might see in the Derby City. Big Ass Fans out of Lexington, Kentucky is one of our most prized and beneficial relationships in the corporate world. This article is a regularly appearing, Friday serial similar to some of the sponsored content we have before published here. Big Ass Fans has committed itself to quality more than the mere size of its industrial sized fans. The product is backed by commitment to performance, reliability, and innovation which has been a driving force behind the company in the twenty or more years it has existed. Enjoy this feature.

Ryder Sandidge, from North Hopkins High School (Madisonville) is poised for a huge season… @RSandidge2027, @Maroon_FB_MNHHS, @eCampusdotcom, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, #Kentuckys #fletcherwlong #LeadershipLegacy #CoachingExcellence #MentorshipMatters #characterbuilding #SportsLeadership #BuildingChampions #kentuckyfootball #highschoolfootball #DisciplineAndDedication #athletics #successmindset #bookstagram #booklovers

The season is literally a week or so from commencement. It is going to be an exciting season like it generally is. There are tons of questions abound as the beginning to 2026 looms. One of those is how profound of a performance may we expect from one of Western Kentucky’s brightest and more versatile stars? Ryder Sandidge has a different gear. If you have ever seen him play, you know what we are describing. Just when you think you have pulled even with Ryder, and are about to overtake him, he hits “that gear” and you are left grasping for a ghost, trying to corral that which is no longer there. We have seen him hit that separation speed in many games, in many “Sevens” throws. Now it is time to access it during his “Swan Song” of a senior season. Enjoy this look at one of the KHSAA’s better commonwealth wide athletes and versatile pieces of high school football equipment and personnel. Enjoy the feature.

Is Bowling Green’s GARRETT PEARSON the top two-way lineman in his class in KY?

We got our start in this business covering middle school football. Hey, everyone has to start somewhere. When our first group of prospects matriculated to high school we went with them. Why not? We still like to feature the occasional middle school prospect, through we certainly don’t cover middle school as thoroughly as we once did. Today, we are featuring a ’31 kid who plays OL/DL together with being an UA Next All-American and sporting a 3.6-GPA. His name is GARRETT PEARSON and he may be the best two-way lineman we have seen out of Bowling Green, Kentucky ever. Enjoy this look at a student who is doing things the right way. Congratulations kid…here’s your feature!
