Oh wow.  West jones coach doesn’t typically try to run the score up on anyone and will start subbing with a 20 pint lead or more at the half.  But do not be surprised if they hang 70-80 on south jones tonight.  Some ticked off people right now. 

What happened?

So west did start subbing early.  Rotating the entire offense every 2 plays there a couple drives.  
 

There was some trash talking between players.  Got a little choppy at times. 
 

Final looks to be 41-7.   
 

The last 9 points west gave up is from a 10th grade 3rd string center sending the ball over the qp/punters head.  First led to safety against northeast jones.   2nd a blocked punt into endzone for South Jones to recover for TD

Brookhaven is going to be a problem down the stretch with that defense but they can be someone else’s problem now. Our defense tore them giants a new one in the second half. Our defense blew their running back up on the first play of ot , took the ball away from him and we punch it in our first play. 
War Eagles win 20-14

This is not the most talented team we have had. You can argue the last couple teams have been more talented. But gosh this group plays as hard as any team we have had and they are unselfish. Brookhaven punched us in the mouth tonight in the second quarter and I made the statement that coming out after half we would see what we were made of. And they answered the bell. They play hard and play as a team.

Region 3-5A standings:

 

West Jones 3-0 (5-1 overall)

Wayne County 3-0 (5-1 overall with loss being covid forfeit)

Hattiesburg 3-0 (3-4 overall)

Laurel 2-1 (3-4 overall.  beat florence in division via covid forfeit by florence)

Brookhaven 1-2 (3-4 overall)

Natchez 0-3 (3-4 overall)

South Jones 0-3 (2-4 overall)

Florence 0-3 (1-5 overall)

 

West Jones clinches playoff spot with a 1 win from here on out.  They play Florence next week.  Win that they will have wins over Florence, South Jones, Natchez, and Brookhaven.  Basically all 4 of the teams that could hope to steal a playoff spot if any of them  win out.   

 

Wayne County can clinch playoff spot with a single win from here on out.  They got Natchez next.  Still Laurel, Hattiesburg, and West Jones to go after that.

 

Hattiesburg can clinch playoff spot with a single win from here on out.  They already played Natchez, south jones and florence.  Their schedule gets a lot more daunting from here on out. They got Brookhaven next.

 

Laurel needs 2 wins to clinch a playoff spot.  They got South Jones next but having lost to Brookhaven puts them in must win situation against any 1 of West Jones, Wayne County and Hattiesburg, who they play in that order to finish the season. Lose any 2 of those and they are probably sitting at home come playoff time.

 

Brookhaven, despite having a worse record in division currently than Laurel, have an easier path the playoffs.  They still havn't played Florence, South Jones, Hattiesburg, or Natchez.  If they win 3 of those they can get in and probably knock Laurel out.  Or at least force a set of tie-breakers that currently probably favors them. 

 

Natchez, with losses to Laurel, West Jones and Hattiesburg already, they can still make the playoffs if they win out.  Lose next week to Wayne County they are eliminated from playoff contention.

 

South Jones must win out to get into the playoffs.  Any one loss they are done.  They still have to play Wayne County,  Laurel, Brookhaven and Natchez.  All of whom are fighting for playoff lives.

 

Florence, like South Jones, must win out to make the playoffs.  And will also need some help from some others.

So far this season has went almost exactly how I expected it. Playoffs for Hattiesburg starts this week I’m ready to see how the boys react to another tough outing. Brookhaven game is bigger than I initially thought with some calling it before the season started. Everyone knows exactly where I stand on the Tigers but I think we can crack one of the next 5. I think our non region games prepared us for this stretch.

Ole Brook has a good team. They are huge up front on both sides of the ball. Their skilled players are very good and they are well coached. They turned the ball over a few times against WC. Vott where is this game?

Brookhaven.

Is it that bad? lol. If its that bad they should never lose at home. Also saw their schedule. How did they get shutout by Lawrence County? That surprising.

Their first two games were forfeit and they were really short handed against Tylertown with a lot of players in quarantine.

They really need need this game to stay in the hunt. Not throwing shade against Hattiesburg but y’all are going to have a hard time winning this game. I guarantee you their south west ms refs will be put in full force. Y’all will need to get a lot of turnovers to even the playing field.

I couldn’t figure that out myself but the team that came to Waynesboro last week is pretty dang good. We’ve played Pascagoula and George County and I believe they were better than both. As for the home cooking we’ve had some questionable calls there just like most visiting teams. You hear that when you play at Waynesboro, Hattiesburg, Laurel anyplace it’s just part of the game
