Trigg County hasn’t played a football game since Crittenden County on September 26. One of the weeks was an “off week,” while the other (a game with Fort Campbell shelved because of the government shutdown) has been rescheduled for October 30. In any event, it has been a while. In the interim it is hoped Trigg may get some of the roster healed up and ready for action. Trigg County will get Mighty Mayfield at Perdue Field in Cadiz this coming weekend and that will be as tough as it sounds. Ahmari “Double A” Alexander has been playing like “Alexander the Great” so far this season. Enjoy this feature on this wonderfully gifted and talented young football star.

Nicholas County is 7-1 and still hoping to challenge for the KHSAA title in 1A @nchsbluejackets, @ncmhs_athletics, @eCampusdotcom, @Ale8One, @KatherineL58069, @coachclsmit, @ChiefSmoke10, @LasatersCoffee, @HenryMi74881410, @bigassfans

Nicholas County is having a fantastic season in spite of last night’s set-back. The Bluejackets are 7-1 with Raceland upcoming before finishing with Bath County and are having a fine season. The last time the Bluejackets were this formidable may have been one of Ben Pumphrey’s teams. Perhaps it was a team the great Emery Clark, a.k.a. “Little E,” appeared on its roster before Clark went on to star for UK’s Wildcats. Who knows? All we know is Simon Clouse has it going on right now, and with assistant coaches on staff like the great Jon Collins, Robert “Hop” Hopson, and Greg Letcher who is to say when it will end? Enjoy the ride Bluejacket fans! These days don’t come around too often.

This is another special edition of our Big Ass Fans Kentucky Comfort Creator series. Jaylen Irish, a senior RB at 2A, Fort Knox High, is posting some incredible numbers in this, his senior year. The military schools have gotten notification they are being exempted from the federal shutdown in recognition of extracurricular activities being “…an important part of our military-connected students’ school experience.” Man, are we glad of that. Enjoy this look at Jaylen Irish, our Big Ass Fans, Kentucky Comfort Creator this week as he gets ready to entertain top-ranked Owensboro Catholic this coming weekend!

Storm Warning: Central played Union County tougher than many expected, they have the week off then brace to travel to Webster County…

October 9, 2025 Fletcher Long 0

Central is off this week. With the injuries we have suffered this season, and with the effect on our bottom line having some of these kids limited has caused, this off week may have come at the exact right time. We need to get healed up and ready for the Webster, Murray, and Crittenden stretch run towards the playoffs. If we run the table, we are assuredly in the playoffs. Enjoy this recap of a game with Union County which was closer than most thought it would be and let’s take a look at the road ahead.

We are very pleased to welcome Lasaters Coffee & Tea to our growing family of advertisers. The Kelley family has a very long history in the local football industry and several of the Kelleys have had their numbers retired owing to their familial history of playing excellence. Football has been very good to their family and they look for ways to give back to this very special community. Lasaters is a place one goes to get caffeinated and motivated and couldn’t we all use a bit more of that invigoration in our daily routines. Get by one (1) of our four (4) Christian County, Kentucky locations and enjoy the roasted flavor of a hot cup of warmth and love.

Madisonville rides balanced offensive attack to 7-0 record, takes next week off before critical closing stretch (Apollo, Owensboro Senior High, Warren Central)

October 4, 2025 Fletcher Long 0

We had a ton of Thursday Night action, so much that I published some “Thursday Night Picks” which I rarely do. I turned in a 12-1 on the night, perhaps I should change my name to “Thursday Night Fletch.” Just kidding. Madisonville ran its record to 7-0 for the first time since 1983 and Fort Campbell got its game with Trigg County rescheduled which was the right thing for Trigg to do as we can’t hold the kids at Fort Campbell accountable for a governmental shutdown. Hopefully, the gridlock will have been resolved by Halloween or thereabouts. Enjoy this look at the Madisonville-North Hopkins/Muhlenberg County game in this feature.

Storm Warning: Central drops a winnable road game in Russellville but has to turn it around quickly as 3A finalist from last year (Union County, 3-3) is headed for “The Gap” @LasatersCoffee, @Ale8One, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @HopkinsCentral, @_CoachManning

The Storm welcomes a district one heavyweight to Morton’s Gap this Friday night. Union County comes to Morton’s Gap fresh off a finals appearance in 2024 and a 21-14 win over a Hancock County team coming off an 8-win campaign a year ago and 4-1 entering the contest with Union last weekend. This is a daunting task but certainly not an undoable one. An upset here would be so huge. We have the personnel and ability to deliver such an upset but we have to be on our game, healthy, and playing mistake free/penalty free (pre-snap/composure) football to prevail. Come on out to Morton’s Gap this weekend and take in this first district clash. For all intents and purposes, the real season starts tomorrow night.

Luke DeMoss, an unsung hero about whom we are singing today @markezz_25, @BlueGreyFB, @All_American_Me, @Maroon_FB_MNHHS, @LasatersCoffee, @eCampusdotcom, @bigassfans, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @Ale8One

Luke DeMoss is an unsung hero for the North Hopkins defense and one of the reasons the 5A team is 6-0 and contending for a title this season in the KHSAA. Today, his song is being sung. DeMoss is a nose guard who is also a championship caliber powerlifter and title holder from the heavyweight division at the Kentucky High School “Push-Pull (bench/deadlift) Championships.” DeMoss is also an incredibly hard guy to dig out of the A-gap and forces teams to double him up to get him out of there. The net result is…the Maroons are having a season for the ages. Enjoy this article about a special, young talent who has worked very hard to get where he is.

Storm Warning: Hopkins County Central lost a game to lightening, Mid-point Report Card, Russellville begins second half

September 25, 2025 Fletcher Long 0

Like we have done in prior seasons, now the games are finally here, we will take the last week’s action and break it down and then look at the road ahead. We got an unexpected off week when lightening precluded our playing Kentucky Country Day in a game which will not be rescheduled. We have a winnable game on the road tomorrow night against a team with tradition, second to none on this end of the commonwealth. Russellville High School is struggling this year (0-5) but this program played for the 1A title just a few short years ago (2021) and has won three titles (1980, ’83, and ’90) while playing for four (4) more (1964, ’66, ’87, and 2021) Enjoy this feature and get out to the games this weekend. Remember, your hometown heroes need a little help from you! See you at the game!

Bucket List Game, Trinity and Saint Xavier square off in Louisville this weekend @eCampusdotcom, @TrinityHSFB, @stxtigers, @CoachKWallace, @840WHAS, @FitzOn840WHAS, @khsaafootball, @KyHighFootball, @bigassfans

In the world of Kentucky high school football, a world about which we are undoubtedly familiar, the Trinity/St. Xavier game is often referred to as “The Game.” It is so big neither on campus stadium is viewed as sufficient to host the event. This is why it gets annually played at the stadium which hosts University of Louisville football games instead. This year neither team has lost a game to a Kentucky high school. That changes this weekend. We have taken a deep dive into the matchup, done our homework/research, and have forecast a winner. Let’s see how closely we get this or if we miss altogether. Enjoy the look at a “Bucket List” type event and game.
