Live from KM at Shelby
About 26 minutes from kickoff of the 80th edition of the Battle of Buffalo Creek. Shelby leads the all-time series 61-17-1 heading into tonight's battle at Pearley Allen Field at George Blanton Stadium.
The Golden Lions are in their black tops, black pants and gold helmets. The Mountaineers are wearing white tops, white pants and black helmets.
