West Point at. Tupelo

[wpgreenwave51]

Battle of the Waves! With Tupelo basically running almost the same offense that West Point is running with a few wrinkles and possibly the two best defenses in the state, this is going to be a good one.

I guess y’all get the distinction of playing both the Golden “Blue Field” Wave and Maroon Tide in the last decade.  Maybe I’m missing something, but why does the Golden Wave have a blue field?  If there was someone who knew absolutely nothing about Tupelo and someone told them their mascot was the Golden Wave, I don’t think the color blue would pop into their head as a color for them.  If blue truly is an accent color for them, why does it feel like their primary color?

If you think that is strange, Eastern Washington Eagles play on a red turf field

They have embraced the blue.

Can we start calling them the Blue Wave or the Golden Accent Wave since Blue is their primary color?

they don't have enough attendance for anyone to notice what we might call them.

[maroontide06]

Are West Point fans invited to the community tailgate?  Bring your freeloader fork. LOL

[pancho]

I doubt it but some could be related.   the more the merrier

That's sad if true.  Haven't caught a game there but driving by the school frequently they seem to have nice digs.  Great coach building something there too.

The game lived up to the hype

Well we tried to tell them. Speaking of Cham. He made the trip to the game

This one reminds me of the Texas/USC Rose Bowl National Championship where all the talk leading up to it was is that USC team the greatest college team of all time and Texas put a stop to it. All offseason and even til last night the talk was is this Tupelo team the best MS high school team of all time. Appears West Point put a stop to it.

I had West Point winning this game. On paper, it’s hard to say Tupelo isn’t the best team in the state but after watching them they’re relying on their defense to stifle things. I think they’d be a totally different team if they had their qb.

If I was Tupelo's coach I'd move Hill back to RB and let the second string QB play until Williams can start; the best RB in the state is playing out of position; it was going to cost Tupelo at some point. That's what you have a backup QB for if the # 1 cant play; neither Hill or Williams are going to be at Tupelo next year why not let the backup get some reps and your offense would be more effective.
