Great Crossing Shocks duPont Manual in Playoffs

November 19, 2024 Fletcher Long 0

The second round of the KHSAA playoffs made me glad I have stopped publishing picks. With the upsets we saw in round two, I would have looked even dumber than I actually am. None of the round two exits were any more surprising than this one. Enjoy the feature.

Max Pelfry is the Big Ass Fans Kentucky Comfort Creator this Week @coach_chandler, @ChiefSmoke10, @pelfrey_max, @minguabeefjerky, @bigassfans, @KyHighFootball

Max Pelfry has been “keeping it cool” around Kentucky for almost as long as Big Ass Fans. This guy has been among the best players at his position since his middle school All-Star days. His high school career has been everything we thought it would be and he would make an excellent “take” for a small college program looking to take on a next-level QB with all the skills. Enjoy the feature and let’s keep it cool out there Kentucky!

Storm Warning, ’24 season recapped!

November 14, 2024 Fletcher Long 0

The season came to an inglorious end in Munfordville, Kentucky this past weekend. Still, there are many reasons to look forward to the program’s prospects and future success. We take a look back at the ’24 season as we slide into basketball season and football offseason training. Enjoy the feature.

Jackson Stuart, from Sayre High, is the Big Ass Fans Kentucky Comfort Creator of the Week @bigassfans, @JacksonStu_13, @minguabeefjerky, @sfitz_840whas, @840WHAS

I know it seems this particular feature has promoted quite a few Sayre Spartans. We can assure you it isn’t intended. It is just hard to ignore a program which has just polished off a perfect regular season at 10-0 headed into the Class A KHSAA playoffs. Why is that so hard to ignore? How about because there are only seven (7) such records among the 223-programs playing football across the commonwealth and Sayre is the only perfect regular season in its classification. Enjoy the feature and let’s keep it cool out there Kentucky!

Braxton Jennings is among the highest regarded and recruited ’25 prospects in the KHSAA. He is also among its better kept secrets. Jennings has led his Tomcats to a 9-1 mark, entering the 4A playoffs, and Ashland has yet to lose a game to a Kentucky high school on the year. What will they do in these upcoming playoffs? Well I can tell you this, they will be heard from, and so will Mr. Jennings.

In all of the excitement this year surrounding Boyle County’s thirty some-odd straight game winning streak, the Franklin Flyers being 10-0, and the Blue Tornado of Paducah finishing 10-0 and blowing out pretty much ever team it has played, we have sort of overlooked how good of a football team Ashland Blazer is. We have sone advice for 4A, best not overlook these guys going forward. You have been warned.

This Friday night the Pilots will guide its ship into an unfriendly port. Morton’s Gap will host this ball game which will be pivotal regarding how the Storm enters the upcoming playoffs. We need to go into the playoffs on a good note. We need to take care of business at home before going out on the road for round one. Enjoy the feature.

We don’t always recognize place-kickers with the frequency the position is due. So many times these place kickers win the game for the team and rarely get any kudos. This past Friday night, Kentucky Country Day beat the top-ranked 1A team in Campbellsville. The margin? Two PATs converted by today’s Protein-packed Performance, Colt Mizuguchi. Enjoy this feature and remember to both stop and smell the roses and #SavorTheFlavor.
