Top 10 Rivalries (feel free to add if I missed any)

Well I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks Poplarville vs. Picayune is a better rivalry than the other county team that we have to play.  It's too bad that game has been put on hiatus for possibly the next two years.  I figured you would have found a spot for Laurel-Meridian because that one is pretty toxic as well.

I don't necessarily think MC vs Brandon is a top "rivalry". While its almost always a good game,  its not a division game. I get they are both usually ranked but so are half the teams we play in our own region. The 2 teams have really only met 1 time that mattered and MC won that one. I'd say MC vs Starkville has been more significant lately. It has determined who won the region as well as North State a few times. Years ago MC and South Panola met at North State numerous times but that game has since lost meaning. That's just my opinion.  We hear "y'all are our biggest rival" from half the teams we play. I think others see MC a lot different than MC sees them.

When I was growing up Laurel-Meridian was a war every year. Even the bands did not like each other. We typically played the first game of the year and Ray Stadium/Between the Bricks would be full because it was an easy one hour drive up/down I-59 for fans. Unfortunately around 1995 Laurel dropped playing Meridian because their enrollment had dropped so much and they didn’t feel they were competitive anymore. So over the last thirty years, we have only played sporadically. Even with that, the rivalry is still over 70 games played. I think Meridian leads 42-30 plus some ties. 
 

The rivalry extended over to basketball as well. I remember our basketball games with Laurel being very rough, tough and physical.

Enterprise vs Quitman, I know this rivalry just recently resumed, but in the old days it was one of the best rivalries in the state.

 

No because of how many years in between games, but it could get back to that point.  That rivalry was ugly.

 

A lot of Quitman Grads are sending their kids to Enterprise which may hurt it.
