David Posted November 7, 2022 Author Share Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) I’ll drop off my predictions and opinions to get things started. Up north is not my area, but I’ll give it a shot: Starkville is coming in hot, but have to go into the house of an undefeated Southaven team that might feel disrespected with all of the talk about the Yellowjackets. They will continue to feel that way when Starkville leaves. Starkville 35-24 Southaven Clinton probably underperformed with the talent they have, but they do have talent. Desoto has lost two out of three here at the end. I’ve got Clinton 24-17 Desoto Central Tupelo obviously, and Madison Central makes it a clean sweep. ——————————————— Looking for upsets, it would have to start with Gulfport playing a great Warren Central team. The Admirals only losses are to Picayune and Ocean Springs. Those are not terrible, but they are losses. Warren Central’s biggest wins are Vicksburg and in overtime over Oak Grove. I’m giving Gulfport a puncher’s chance, and the win, also in overtime Gulfport 42-35 Warren Central The other games go as most people expect in wins by: Oak Grove 42-17 Biloxi Brandon 45-7 Hancock Cty Ocean Springs 41-21 NW Rankin Edited November 7, 2022 by David 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagsFan77 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I wouldn’t be shocked if Region 2 sweeps Region 1. I think Ocean Springs will be the only Region 4 team to advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the south, I picked Gulfport as the upset special, but they would have to play their best game. That result would tell us a lot about the relative strength of the other teams in that division. I’m an Ocean Springs fan, but as usual, a bit leery about our strength of schedule. Losing last year might make our players and, especially our coaches better. Being at home is a positive.

coastfootballfanman Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Ocean Springs is the only shot the coast has for a 6A run. Coast 6A ball just is not as competitive. Too many schools claim to be all in with football, but are not. Ocean Springs is showing what is capable of happening if a school does that.

Oh, hell yeah they do. They played much better late in the season, even in their loss to Brandon. They beat us in the playoffs a couple of years ago, and I know that the O.S. coaches and players are remembering that. Now, comparing common opponents doesn’t always help, but while O.S. shut down Clinton’s run game and won handily, NW Rankin struggled with them and lost big. But, that was early in the season. The stats I’m seeing have NW Rankin allowing around 35 points a game, and that doesn’t bode well when the Greyhounds are scoring more than 40, and haven’t really scored less than 40 lately. NWRankin played a much better schedule and that’s a positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how good OS D really is but they have 2 really good receivers that'll prob give your secondary some fits and their rb isn't bad either but they don't really have an established run game. Yea Clinton has been up and down all year some games we look like a competent team others we're just our own worst enemy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastfootballfanman Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) If Ocean Springs does not make it to State this season, I do not know when they will again. This is bar none their best team ever. Offense, Defense, Special Teams they are better than they have ever been. If they cannot get it done this year, I do not see them having a chance to do it for some time.

This NWR team isn't nearly as good as the pearl team yall played last year. Though thats not really a good comparison but OS hasn't changed much since then but more experience and a slightly better defense. The game might be a shootout if anything but no way they will keep OS under 40. And I can see GP and WC being an OT decided game, but I do believe WC matches up better defensively.

I will say that O.S. is down their starting RB to a broken leg, but the replacement has done well, and they are cycling in several 9th graders into the backfield and WR corp. Defense is better, but seems to get complacent with the big early leads, which has been every game. Like most high school teams, lots of flu and small nagging injuries, which kept a lot of starters out of last week’s meaningless game. Hoping to have everybody on the field for the playoffs. Gulfport has played pretty good all season, only losing to O.S. and Picayune. I’m just personally hoping for a district 4 win to get at least a little respect down south.

If there's any year to do it this is the one for sure. Brandon and OG are still fairly young but extremely talented but def more battle tested than anyone. This is prob the most beatable reg 3 has been for the coast in a long time. Even then OS is the only team that honestly has the most realistic chance of making it to at least south half.

I realize that we’re the best team in a long time, maybe since I played and that’s a long long time. Ha! Nonetheless, the program is getting the things it needs to maintain good teams, and the kids in 10th grade have contributed greatly. The upcoming 9th graders are being used as backups at RB and WR, and they have dominated at every level, not losing a game since entering 7th grade. I know that’s like these guys bragging about their peewee teams on here, but I think we at least continue to win this division, for what that’s worth. I continue to hope that we upgrade our schedule to see more of the teams you mentioned. I’m giving Gulfport a small chance this week only.

ogwarriorbandman Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 (edited) NWR is no doubt a helluva lot better than Pearl. No idea where that came from. OS should win no doubt in my mind.

I would pick WC over Gulfport as well but wouldn’t put any money on it… Edited November 11, 2022 by ogwarriorbandman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
