No, I really wouldn't put it like that.
Lexington wants any team in this region because it means playoff football. Thats about it. This team is senior heavy, most of which were starters on the 2018 team that went 2-8. Springfield will probably be the only playoff team from this region that they have a bitter taste about. They lost to them as freshmen and juniors. Before that, Lexington spent a couple of years playing teams from the West in the playoffs.
I say Lexington by 14. I expect to see some new things and faces from Lexington on the field as they get some younger playmakers out there for this playoff run. They have some kids that can make plays especially behind that senior heavy O-Line.
