We actually have a good team with a great offense not 1 player like Newton we will be fine!  

Lol one player? Laughable. Newton was out coached last night straight up and PP came to play. Unlike ef Newton can #### it up move on and congratulate other teams that beat us without being haters. smh

I think Waskom or PP versus Franklin would be a great game. They have consistently delivered the goods and not teased their fans.

For those who don't know this rivalry runs deep and started in 1978... Franklin met Lexington in the state semifinals that year. Franklin was up 21-6 in the 4th quarter with about 3-4 minutes left in the game. Lexington throws a bomb td then gets the 2 point to make it 21-14, gets onside then throws another bomb down to the 15 yard line or so. Lexington drops back throws ball to the endzone right to a franklin player but he drops the interception. Next play lexington scores a td goes for 2 and gets it and holds on to win 22-21. Franklin has had some players that have attended the games all season. One man even stated that he has waited since the 1978 season for Franklin to return the favor from many years ago.

In 2006 Lexington was ranked #1 in the state had 9 D1 players on the team and had the number 1 defense in the division during regular season. They kept the starters in the whole game against a young Franklin team beating us 42-0. Coach Mike Hedrick said after that game to his team " if no one wants to show us mercy when we are down then we wont show mercy when we are up". I cant tell you the lexington side of the rivalry but this is some of the franklin side.
