In no particular order. Your thoughts/predictions? I’m going out on a limb and picking a Hamilton upset over defending 1A champs.

Bay Springs at Raleigh (Thursday)

Biggersville at Hamilton

Brandon at Picayune

Charleston at Ripley

Petal at Hattiesburg (Saturday)

Grenada at Oak Grove

Louisville at West Point

Starkville at Noxubee County

Taylorsville at Mize

West Jones at Laurel

 

Three Honorable Mentions

Choctaw County at Parklane Academy

Poplarville at JDC

Clarksdale at Cleveland Central (This rivalry has become as heated as the delta temp)

 

MAIS Game of the Week

#1 in 5A ACCS at #2 in 6A Jackson Prep

You don’t have to put Brandon in bold.  Dey ain’t da home team LOL!

Interested in seeing the team y’all put out there this year. On paper looks like could be a rebuilding year, but if history serves anything it’s Picayune is accustomed to reloading not rebuilding so can’t ever count y’all out.

Oooh…the Jay Beech vs. Lance Mancuso matchup.  That’s a top 5 matchup right there.  Give me that one over Biggersville & Hamilton.  That must be some small North MS teams or something that us South MS folks know nothing about.

I’ve got the Biggersville/Hamilton one up there simply because I think Hamilton who is returning a solid unit and being overlooked by some ranking systems could pull off the early season upset and add their name as a possible contender in 2A North. I gotta show the small schools some love.

Also the optics of what occurred in the Brandon/West Point jamboree probably didn’t help matters, but win or lose I want to see us play a clean football game from start to finish.

Def a pick ‘em game. Part of me says take Hattiesburg and their high expectations on the season but other part of me wants to go off of past experiences in this game. Petal comes in winning the last 4 and are 4-1 on the road in the last 5 against Hattiesburg. Can Hattiesburg even this all time series at 12-12? Should be a good one.

Laurel had a scrimmage a couple weeks ago that was streamed online for a bit. The o line looked slow and like they skipped a few days of weight lifting. Qb threw up prayer almost every pass. And the defense suspect other than a very solid LB group. But it’s a scrimmage so……

 

Hearing now from some people that in their jamboree it was much of the same. So unless they are sandbagging a bit I expect west jones to work them over.

I also like the Hattiesburg pick over Petal.  That particular game is almost in a no pick territory, but with it being at D.I. Patrick it’s hard to pick against The Tigers.

Especially this Year. Its long overdue for Petal get laid 2 rest.

We still have ways to go on offense but we will beat Petal this year.
