I'm glad you mentioned Clarksdale. They've always had some good football up that way. That's who Coach Triplett was able to beat for the '86 5A title. I'm curious to see what they can do.

That sounds like a long term headache for opposition. Young talent isn't a bad thing because it's perennial and it just keeps getting bigger and stronger each year.

What have we done? We've done got this topic piping hot LOL!

Thankfully West Point isn't sitting there in region 2 with them, but does that just delay the inevitable?

The other potential playoff teams in region 2 are Neshoba Central, Vicksburg & Callaway. Is there any one of those other teams that could potentially make a deeper run?

Another very interesting take here. I'm thinking that the Warren Central/Vicksburg game will probably be a dandy.

I know absolutely nothing about 6A North so I certainly appreciate your input. Your guess is probably better than mine anyways.

Here's another twist: South Panola opens the season against Houston, Tennessee. Will that be a tough test for them?

South Panola is one that I'm curious about. If Lake Cormorant is better than them, hey I'll take it. What is the probability of the 6A North Half Championship to be between South Panola and Warren Central?

There certainly isn't any shame in that. Didn't they go 4-7 last year? If they can pull something like this off I'll have to tip my cap to their head coach.

Thank you for this post here. Are you thinking that Lake Cormorant is the team to beat out of 6A North?

Picayune ain't in a much better boat either Slick. We've got Brandon at Brandon right out the gate. Win or lose, I just want Picayune to play well and not get hurt. A win would definitely make that drive home a whole lot easier, but Picayune is going to have to go up there and earn it.

Neither should Petal.

Yes, you're right about that. Their final home game against Bay Springs on Thursday, the 26th of October, should be a thriller.

Here's a couple you might want to check out: 10/13 Tylertown @ Poplarville 10/20 Magee @ Jefferson Davis County I think either one of those would be good to go see and also within a respectable driving distance as well.

I just hope these fuel prices will subside some because high gas prices and football season don't mix. If your carburetor is running a little rich, now is the time to get it tuned in.

We are less than a month from kickoff on Friday, August 25th. It won't be too much longer to wait. Will there be any coastal teams participating in jamborees on Friday, August 18th?

How many of those seniors can elect to come back if they haven't used their covid year and don't get drafted? You may not lose them all after all.

I'm sure there's a similar excuse in regards to Clarkdale.

Poplarville has gone 103-32 since the 2013 season with 4 state championship appearances. Yeah this MaxPreps poll is seriously flawed. Poplarville is top 20 in my book.

Who knows. What's even crazier is Vanderbilt has like (8) first place votes.

The media picked State dead last in the West with (1) first place vote. What a flippin' joke LOL!

With the QB's that OM brought in, it makes you wonder if it's Dart's job to lose. I think the only way that Will would get replaced is if he got seriously hurt or starts laying eggs. Hopefully none of those things happen, but they always say that the backup QB is literally one play away from being the starter.

@BrickCity Do you think Vic Sutton and Chris Parson will redshirt this year? Will and Mike are both seniors, but I don't know if they've got extra eligibility beyond this year. They might if they've got the covid year to use. I think both Chris and Vic are great fits for Mississippi State and I'd like to see them at Mississippi State for as long as they possibly can hang around. Hopefully Vic can get a scholarship (and I think he will). I remember when we had to burn Arceto Clark's redshirt and I'm thankful that players can now play in up to 4 games and still preserve it.

I guess it must suck to be intertwined with Gulfport, but I guess that was part of the coaching shuffle. Hopefully the dust has settled and Ocean Springs can get back to being Ocean Springs. Have a safe trip to the Yune when y'all get to come play us. I think I'll enjoy not having to travel that week LOL!
