Hattiesburg 41. West Jones 20 final the better prepared team won, Keyes is good as advertised.

Long TD pass Keys Hattiesburg 41 20 start 4th

Hattiesburg 27 West Jones 6. Half Hattiesburg blitzing on defense every play. West didn’t have a plan for that. Maybe we thought that was illegal, it’s not.

On 2nd thought, no advantage for West Jones on special teams.

i don't think it's been that bad. Punter is above average for high school. FG kicker, although not great range, has been consistent. And we have blocked several punts and extra points this year, which is part of special teams.

The more I look at these 2 teams, amazing how similar they are. Both are 3 - 1 against common opponents, beating George County Laurel and Forest Hill, losing to Petal. Both pretty balanced offensively. Hattiesburg rushing for 1291yds 6.7 per carry. West Jones rushing for 1443yds 6.5 per carry. Hattiesburg passing for 1560yds 10.5 average. West Jones passing for 1748yds 11.6 average. Probably give Hattiesburg the edge on defense and maybe West Jones an edge on special teams. Should be a great game hopefully, and perhaps will come down to a few plays made by some of the star players.

Oh yeah, but still running it too. Holmes is well over 1000 yards rushing, and they finally let Tootie run some QB keeps vs. Terry. The passing game is on point. Terry front 7 was pretty decent, not sure how they compare to Hattiesburg's, but WJ will need to have some success rushing the ball to stay balanced and run clock. The more our defense and Hattiesburg's offense is on the sideline, the better it will go for us.

Well I did not have Brian Kelly as the next fired coach after Pittman an Napier an before Freeze. Total fail in the bayou.

South Jones @ Brookhaven is a huge game for 5A South this Friday. If Brookhaven wins, they will most likely run the table and have home field advantage thru South State. But South Jones controls their own destiny too. Win Friday, and then beat Natchez and Laurel and they will be #1 seed. South will have #5 Jackson back from suspension. 1st 6 games with him, they averaged 35 points per game. Last 2 without him, they scored 11 total. Laurel really has no hope for the #1 seed, unless North Pike or Natchez could beat Brookhaven later and they win out and beat South Jones.

For sure. I was scratching my head on why Terry went away from him to throw it some. Maybe he was just too tired after running thru 4 and 5 of our defenders so often. We did do a better job gang tackling him later in the game though.

That would seem to be the case. Maybe West can get thru Forest Hill next week without any more injuries. I know of one starter that will possibly be back next week. I don't think we lost anyone last night, the QB did tweak his ankle (again), but stayed out there. We need that ankle to be 100% on Halloween night 10/31.

They were also missing #5s brother, #8. He is another difference maker with the ball.

Well, I missed that game, but from the radio, it sounded like it turned into a shootout. 2nd half was a bunch of lead changes, and with 21 seconds left, South Jones made the final lead change. That was South Jone's Super bowl. West should have no problem getting up for a county school rival, but they had won the last 8-9 games in a row. Very similar though to the Wayne County game in that the defense was non existent late in the game.

From what I've seen so far, West has shown it can be very good some games, and then absolutely terrible. Laurel, NEJ, and North Pike were methodical wins, where you never doubted the outcome. Wayne County, great start and then go to sleep and almost give it away. Petal, totally non-competitive. Finally, very good last week, but exactly how good is George County? West will go as far as the offense takes them this year. They need to come out fast Friday night, get ahead, and play ahead on the scoreboard.

Pretty big game in Region 3 6-A Friday. The loser will most likely need to beat Hattiesburg later, or prepare to travel to the coast in the 1st round playoffs as a #3 seed.

You right Vott, Sumrall. My bad
