Dubaction Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 I had to go and watch it for myself. GC would have to be pretty bad to lose to Hancock. They are fools gold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, shouldn’t we consider West Jones the best team in district 3, or did their 2-0 snoozefest win knock them down below H’burg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defensively they are dang good. But their offense is sketchy. If a team is able to get 21 on WJ they could be in trouble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case you might would have another slobberknocker if Hattiesburg and George County have to square off again in the playoffs because neither team was able to win that ballgame in regulation.

What do you think George County will have to do to secure a win in The Kiln? Play defense like they've been playing but eliminate the turnovers. The turnovers have really kept other teams in games with GC and I'm talking like multiple turnovers. I think against Hattiesburg they turned it over around 5 times and the same can be said for the Wayne Co. game. Wayne Co's only TD in regulation was a pick 6, Biloxi won by three scores and all three scores were special team miscues on punt (bad snap and a block) and another pick 6 by the offense. Otherwise GC wins the game 14-13 with their 3rd string QB. Defense has been dang near close to lights out. The turnovers have put them in bad spots and there's even been a few KO returns for TDs on them this year. Bottom line: Continue stellar defensive play. Eliminate turnovers. Continue to run the ball and don't get fancy/cute. Take advantage of the superior athletes and speed and let them play. GC can win this game convincingly IF they do these things. Just got to do them. The coaches have done a good job with the gameplans. I think it boils down the players holding onto the football.

It's been a long time since Hancock beat George County, like 30 years or 31 football seasons. Maybe they get it done, but they'll have their hands full in doing so.

maroontide06 Posted October 13, 2023 Author Share Posted October 13, 2023 I finally made my pick today on this matchup. It'll be a great one to see for the folks that will be there. With that being said, I just couldn't pick against George County. I have no issues with Hancock whatsoever, but in order for them to have gotten my vote, they would need to be up on the ladder a few rungs and right now they just haven't made that ascent yet. I feel like George County is probably on the first rung at this point, so that's why they got my vote. Let's see if George County can climb up a rung or two tonight.

They haven't played consistently in the last 30 seasons. 2. The last time these two teams played their seniors were in the 6th grade.

It doesn't matter at all, but it's a stat that's out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Hancock came back to make a game of it, but George Cty. held on for the win. Two pretty tough playoff teams, but I think Picayune still wins division easily. Just can’t see either of these teams giving the Tide a game.
