Unbelievable good game. Little bit of everything. Pick 6, blocked punt for 6, hard hitting and great atmosphere...Came down to 4th and 5, and MC throws a TD with 17 seconds left.
Now on to Starkville next Friday. Going to be another tough one.

I don't think Madison Central would have a problem playing them if West Point agreed to it. May or may not win- but MC usually doesn't shy away from playing tough teams.Quote:

That's true of really anybody in Mississippi. West Point has the best player in the state and he can carry a team. Once Murphy graduates they'll probably take a step back to what they are usually are- a very solid 5A football team that will go deep in the playoffs. Unless they have someone I am unaware of that can carry them again.
The word around the area up here is, even among refs, that this year's West Point team is one of the best in Mississippi in a number of years. I really wanted to go see them once my main team got knocked out last week. They were on the road tonight, and next week I have family obligations. I'm going to have to choose between the high school games and the college conference championship games on State championship weekend. I'll make all three games on Friday, but I probably won't make it Saturday.
West Point beats MC by two touchdowns. It was a good game last night. Two turnover for WC sealed their fate
MC better worry about Pearl before they talk WP.
Boom hashtag truthQuote:

I think Pearl may have something to say about that.Quote:
