I am going to go with my Wildcats. While we do need to get better with respect to penalties/turnovers, I like our physicality on both sides of the LOS. I would venture to guess that this is most physical Meridian team in well over 10 years. Obviously that does not guarantee a win. And I know Petal is playing good football as well. Coach Boyles is an excellent coach. Like everyone else I was disappointed when he left after one year but I hold no ill will towards him. Our kids have developed well during the season and have confidence now. I think they will get it done despite being on the road. Go Cats!!!

I think often about the fact that in 2023, Fritz was at Tulane, Sumrall was at Troy, and Cignetti was at JMU. All three left for jobs that at the team would have been considered lesser jobs than State. And State hired an unproven OC to be its head coach.

Wonder where State would be if Willie Fritz stepped out of that airplane in 2024 instead of Lebby

Ole Miss is still probably going to finish 9-3 at worst. That Georgia game in a few weeks obviously looms large, but it’s in Oxford. If Kamario is done for the year, which is kinda what it looked like today, State’s best case scenario is 6-6. And that would require them winning the Vandy game that I’m not sure I would pick them to win if you made me call it today.

That first half by Ole Miss was bad, just very very bad by the whole team. I was glad to see the team didn’t roll over and showed up in the second half, not quitting shows character in a team. Plenty of season left to see how it goes.

KY actually has a pretty favorable schedule left. LSU was impressive today, but they have Bama, TX and LSU left. Oh and Arkansas.

OM made it REALLY interesting. But Texas hangs on. Only two SEC teams remaining with one loss. Georgia and Kentucky, just like we all expected!

As Lee Corso would say “not so fast my friend.” Would be the epic choke of the season if Ole Miss comes back and wins this game.

I kind of did put Boyles in it indirectly in the poll, lol. Honestly I don't like it . Go somewhere out of the dam region, But that's Petal . I do know they pursued him. He was coming back to Meridian.

Heidelberg is in the South

Strange things happen in Petal always to the visitors

I would agree that Gulfport is the team to beat. We (Meridian) are vastly improved but we still have some weaknesses. A very big game at Petal next week. We really need to win that one. I know many will make it about Boyles but he was only at Meridian one year and that was three years ago. It now just represents a game we need to win for playoff purposes. Congrats to Wayne County. Your team like Meridian is playing its best football right now and ceiling is up there for further improvement.

Texas has Chambliss seeing ghosts and the next QB they’ll see is…. Billy Puckett. lol. OM has been a strange team week to week this year.

Thanks, I never would of thought a Alabama high school site would have Miss standings.

Puckett has actually looked okay. Made a poor decision to keep the ball. Give it to Fluff or pass the ball. That hurt. Ole Miss getting waxed by TX tonight. Just a poor day for our two teams. Kudos to USM for the win over ULL. That is a big shot in the arm for the Golden Eagles.

You could say that . I could also make the case that they still are. I don't feel that way about Brandon at all. Gulfport will beat Brandon if they meet up and I could see OG beating them in a rematch. Brandon's coach is lacking.

There's a reason Paul put that statement from Tracey on the wrap up. He was on the sidelines too. He saw what was going on. I'm pretty sure they hurt one of the RBs ankle bouncing on it after he was down. It was something after every play. They were putting eight or nine at the line every at every snap. Their coach got mad when it didn't stop us from scoring.

I would be pissed if I were Minnesota, SC, or Mizzou that they didn’t get to play this version of State. Oklahoma is not a good football team and State was fortunate to only lose by 8 to them today. In Starkville.

Minnesota got a top 15 win. And to think…..

It’s a 4 way tie in Region 3-7A for 1st place.

Ahsfhs Mississippi

BYU, Texas Tech, and Tennessee all lose. The path to the Playoff this year….. A really weird one.

Td run by South Carolina qb was impressive
