Those back to back L's don't sit right with us. I understand completely, but this Maroon Tide team is on a mission and it’s one of those teams that only comes along one in about 12-15 years. They truly are the real deal and they are special to watch. By no means am I trying to downplay the State Championship game, but this team wants something more than that. I realize the season ends for both teams on Friday (win or lose), but maybe there’s some sort of a National High School Football Championship Tournament out there. I know that’s wishful thinking, but why haven’t they come up with something like that yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUNNINGMAN67 Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Coach Stog gonna have them boys ready to play. I'm calling a 25+ point Tide win. Stogner going to have two consecutive gold balls and a possibility for a 3rd next year. No doubt the best Coach in the state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a team gets this far just on raw talent and skill. That definitely plays a part but if that's all there is then wouldn't we have seen George County make the playoff this year and possibly have a winning season? There's talent and skill in Lucedale that should get you that far if that's the bare minimum qualification. In other words you can mostly throw this theory out of the water if you would like. We've definitely had some coaching adjustments that have helped us get this far. Yes we have a lot of talent and a lot of skill, but it has to be used and exploited properly for that type of success to show. I think this might be the reason why Tib downvoted your post.

I don't care about downvotes. I'm just getting at that I'm pretty confident Lee could've done this with this team. It doesn't discredit who is there now. By all accounts he's very good, but it's fool's gold to deny that he was handed a very good situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Picayune philosophy has been very consistent and the coaching staff has been consistent as well and they haven't deviated from that philosophy because in reality they can't. That Maroon Tide offense gets taught to them at a very young age so it's kind of interwoven in our community. It becomes about execution at the varsity level and can you execute it? If you can, you'll have success. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah ok It'll be a tough game for sure and I wouldn't expect anything less; however, I don't think it will be shootout-like when we played Gautier the last week of the regular season. It's going to boil down to which team makes the least amount of mistakes and can control the time of possession. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Stogner and his staff took over there has been a different energy flowing through these football teams than we had in the past. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slicklizard Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 West Point offense is the key to this game. Namely their offensive line. If they can hold their own and stay ahead of the chains on third down they have a chance. I think 28- 31 points by either team will win this game . Everyone thinks the maroon tide will win including me. As I sit around thinking about this game though 05 keeps popping in my mind. We were undefeated and just overwhelming people with our passing game . I was flying into Jackson from way down south man the party was on. “ Who were we playing again ? West joint? Yea I’ll have one. Ooohhh West Port , never heard of em. I think they are close to Tupelo. It’s just academic though right “. Arrogance from all of us. That tune changed pretty dam quick. They made it a point on every play to have somebody in Drex’s face or chase Lampley to the edge where they could run him down. It was a defensive masterpiece for sure but the thing that still sticks with me today is the WP QB scrambling for seven or eight yards on third down over and over again and again. He kept our offense off the field as much the WP defense did. That was the only loss we had for two seasons. Okay that’s far enough down memory lane. I will just say this nobody plays up being the underdog like they do in West Point. We will see what they look like facing the wing t for the second time. Not to mean this in the wrong way but I think they didn’t take Picayune as seriously as they should have last season.and by the time they did they were dealing with a run away train. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Poppa Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Some of these fans and posters are really goofballs and probably never played a down of football since pee wee ball. This will be a hardnose tough game hopefully the Tide can make it 2 in row against a worthy program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picayunes defense is the key to this game imho. 2. we might not win but Picayune will not lose because of arrogance and chest thumping. i am not seeing that at all. we know who we are and what we have to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
