slicklizard Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 This game is everything it should be for the highest classification in the state MC offense reminds me so much of Coach Boyles at WC. They line up in a different formation every snap . Split back, eye with fullback in front, and single back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the big backup came in it immediately run first. Credit to Brandon they made MC throw the ball more than they would have wanted to.

Bulldogs4 Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 That has been discussed here off and on over the years. Because MS has a long distance N-S and a relatively short distance E-W, the North-South configuration seems to have worked the best with respect to geography, travel etc. However with the much improved highway system (lots 4 lane highways now), changing to something like you propose might carry more merit. I know they want to avoid a Corinth traveling to St. Stanislaus or something similar during the earlier rounds of the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only downfall if it ever came to that is how would you like it if it was a Hattiesburg-laurel title game but you had to play it at ole miss.

First off congrats to Bay Springs on a championship season. Finally got to see both them and Simmons play and was very impressed with BS. As for this comment though, there was no difference this year other than they had one really really good team in BS. If I recall, didn’t the south’s runner up lose to 2 1A north teams? BS was clearly the best team in 1A and on another level but that doesn’t mean the rest of the south gets to piggyback on their success. It’s like Vandy fans yelling SEC SEC SEC during a Bama playoff game. Plus all but 1 of BS games against 1A south teams were blowouts so it’s not like the south teams gave up a fight. The south has some great names in Taylorsville and Lumberton but neither team was their normal selves this year. That only leaves West Lowndes who again, lost to Biggersville and TCP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon & Madison Central traveled to Hattiesburg to play when Memorial Stadium would have been ideal.

ccbulldog Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 USM is the best location in the State to hold these games. Jackson stadium and field is no longer good for these games and while MSU and Ole miss both have bigger stadiums the extra seats are not really needed and their location is even harder to get to for majority of State than Hattiesburg. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But South Panola and olive branch going to Hattiesburg wouldn't be good either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starkville & Hattiesburg are generally the best venues stadium wise and location wise. With 25,45 and 82 four lane now, getting to Starkville is not so bad compared to the old days. Oxford, unfortunately is just too far North and is not as easy to get to even with the improvement in highways. But in any case, nothing is quite ideal because there is going to be travel for some teams each year regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
