It didn't matter that the Panthers (10-2) were going up against one of the best teams in 2A this year, and a squad that has played in the semifinals of Class 3A the past two seasons. Panthers coach Ernie Willingham already had his plans set to head to Montgomery for another playoff meeting on Saturday morning. "We believed we could win," Willingham said. "We believe we can win, we came over here with that. We're going to play as hard as we could and see what happened." Well on Friday, Nov. 13, the Panthers proved coach right as Uriel Cornejo nailed a game-winning, 22-yard field goal as time expired for the 17-14 upset win over the 1-seeded Bulldogs. Not many picked Collinsville to continue their postseason run into the third round. Some predictions have them as many as 28- or 35-point underdogs, something the players were aware of and mentioned throughout the game.
