David44 Posted October 30, 2025 Share Posted October 30, 2025 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we have blocked several punts and extra points this year, which is part of special teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Hattiesburg breaks a kickoff for td almost untouched. Terry, George county and forest hill all almost returned one. South jones almost returned 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David44 Posted November 1, 2025 Share Posted November 1, 2025 On 2nd thought, no advantage for West Jones on special teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin Posted November 1, 2025 Share Posted November 1, 2025 West is being out coached badly. Hattiesburg has a lb that has wests snap cadence timed, he’s crossing the line at the snap just to left of wests center every play untouched into the backfield. West coaches have done nothing to slow him and it was obvious from wests 2nd possession he had it timed. Thankfully Reynolds won’t be back at west after 2-3 more weeks.

Merlin Posted November 1, 2025 Share Posted November 1, 2025 Wests safety was hurt in 1st done for year. Thats the 3rd or 4th defensive senior starter season ended due to injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rawcones Posted November 2, 2025 Share Posted November 2, 2025 That special teams comment aged like milk. This game was a mismatch soon as hburg got the ball. #4 for hhs is a legit cheat code true playmaker. WJ will go as far as Lindsay takes them.

In the 1st qtr, #6 Holmes was absolutely destroyed returning a kickoff. Not sure why you have your star RB returning those, but he was not the same after that hit. As Merlin noted, West Jones coaches had no answer for Hattiesburg's blitzing either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats 4 starters on defense done for the year. If you go back and watch any of the games that are on YouTube for this season you will see west make no in game changes to the offensive gameplan after halftime since week 2. The kids are not being coached up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
