Huntingdon Mustangs Vs Lake Co. Falcons

[MustangGuru]

I read earlier that Lake County doesnt compare to Huntingdon's History when it comes to football and vice versa. So out of curiosity I did some "research".  

 State Champions for LC- 1980, 1985

State Champions for HHS- 2003

 

State Runner Up LC - 1977,1979, 1994

State Runner Up HHS - 1999, 2004, 2012

Playoff Appearances from 2019 dating back untill 2000:  LC has missed the playoffs 4 times, HHS 1 time.

Not including this year: LC has been eliminated in the Semi- Finals 2 times (2018,2017)

                                          HHS has been eliminated in the Semi- Finals 2 times ( 2000,2005)

                                         LC has been eliminated in the Quarterfinals 3 times (2014,2008,2006)

                                       HHS has been eliminated in the Quarterfinals 4 times (2018,2017,2011,2009)

                                       LC has been eliminated in the 2nd round 2 times( 2011, 2009)

                               HHS has been eliminated in the 2nd round 6 times ( 2016,2015,2013,2010,2008,2007)

                                  LC has been eliminated in the 1st round 5 times ( 2013, 2005,2004,2001,2000)

                                HHS has been eliminated in the 1st round 3 times (2014, 2002, 2001)

 

Lake County combined record since 2000-  139 wins  78 losses

Huntingdon combined record since 2000 - 177 wins    59 losses.

 

I know these stats dont mean much to anyone, but to ME it shows 2 EQUALLY tradition rich teams, 2 EQUALLY GREAT teams this year, 2 UNDEFEATED teams, 2 teams that even though we are great at talking smack to each other, greatly respect each other.  I for one am under the impression that this is the longest week of my life and Friday can not get here quick enough. 

    Huntingdon Fans, I STRONGLY URGE you to show up and be proud, and LOUD! Bring your noisemakers, bring the air horns, bring the signs, the confetti, the flags, etc... Lake County... Guess what.. I STRONGLY URGE you to do the same! The more exciting we can make this game for these boys the better!  BOO the refs when they throw a flag against your team, cheer as loud as you can when your team scores, BOTH TOWNS lets show our boys how much we support them.  After the game, We can all hit the field and congratulate the winners, and console whosever boys have lost what I know will be a hard fought game. Its a shame this game couldn't be for the State Title. 

   Lake County Fans, safe travels, and see yall Friday!

Come on man if your the same poster I remember which you may not be you have to consider the teams you have played. Not saying it’s yalls fault teams were extremely down that was on your schedule but I personally would consider it a cupcake schedule.

I would agree that Huntingdon played a cupcake schedule. Cupcakes or not, those stats impress me and would impress me no matter who they belonged to.

I hear that this is no cupcake that we will see Friday night. May the best team win!

I don't know how there is any more football left to be talked about. I'm pretty sure just about every single Huntingdon & Lake County thread this year has been taken over with football talk about the potential of this match up. So this thread has essentially been going on since before this 2019 season started. 

This guy gets it.........

Now that's a great post.But during those l1970 and early 1980 Lake Co couldn't get many teams to play them .Had to go to South Pemiscot Mo and Wynne Ark for games.I think Martin Westiew tied the all time state winning record during that span of about 44 games in a row against LC in about 1970 or close.LC  had a chance to win that game but think they fumbled close to the goal line.Seems like Union City broke the streak the first  game the next game Remember them beating south Fulton about 68 to 0.Beat Obion Central about 69 to 12..Had a few bad years during about a 4 year stretch but overall a rich history.Good luck to both teams.Somebody going to represent and I think has a great chance.

And don’t forget two of those playoff eliminations were against each other too. Even more history between the two. LC eliminated hunt in 2010 and hunt eliminated lc in 2012. That 2010 game was one of the best games I’ve witnessed with my own eyes

South Pem ain’t that far of a drive. They don’t even have a team anymore. Don’t know how good they were then.
