I think it will be close and Tupelo pulls the upset. Golden Wave 21-20. Looking forward to Friday night.

South Panola grinds the ball with their offensive line dominating the game keeping the Tupelo offense on the sideline… South Panola moves to 83 straight winning 21-17

I think Tupelo will have a big game in this one. I hope it is a big crowd. Anybody know how many people will show up?

South Panola wins again! It is South Panola 28, Tupelo 6

I see this being one of the bigger crowds either school has seen in a while — there is a lot of interest around this game along with some pretty boring matchups around the area that may get some fans to drift over to the game…

Good point Adam. Should be a large group of folks to see this one.

SP always plays on big games. SP should pound Tupelo.
35-14

This is the biggest high school football game since we moved here 30 years ago . Everyone who loves Tupelo High should attend.
We need to support our team, faculty and staff.
Let’s show the Tupelo Spirit.

This is a big game……but it doesn’t Tupelo well not to play into that. This Tupelo team has little to no experience of the premier games…only playing SP twice a year is what they get. SP has experience in them and thrives in them. The best thing for Tupelo to do is play their game, relax, and fight no matter what because they don’t have the streak for nothing. I think it would help if Tupelo had some of the former coaches like James Sloan, Mickey Linder who had his own streak talk to the kids about the game. They could give vital tips to the coaches and players.

If Tupelo’s OL can protect Garret, it will be a shootout and a possible win for Tupelo. If the OL plays like it did against Madison Central, it will be all S. Panola. For Tupelo, it depends on what offensive line shows up.

When Panola wins this by four touchdowns, everybody who went will wish they would have gone to the better game…Aberdeen at Louisville.

This is nothing new to South Panola. People need to face reality. South Panola 28 Tupelo 14. 4th Quater is all South Panola. (As usual) Don’t let the half time score fool you if we are down.
