South Panola v. Olive Branch
Mississippi powers to clash in Game of the Week
Updated 9/27/2006 12:50 PM ET
No. 17 South Panola of Batesville, Miss., puts its 50-game win streak on the line this Friday when it visits Region 1 rival Olive Branch Friday at 8 p.m. ET in this week's USA TODAY High School Football Game of the Week.
An audio webcast of the game will be available at preps.usatoday.com, featuring the broadcast of WBLE in Batesville, Miss. The play-by-play will be handled by Bob Norris, who has been doing the South Panola games for the past 22 years, and George Carlson. A pregame show will begin at 7:30 p.m. ET.
South Panola (5-0) is Mississippi's three-time defending Class 5A state champion and defeated Olive Branch twice last year, including 26-0 in the 5A semifinals.
Olive Branch (5-0) features a prolific offense which averages 60 points per game, with scoring outputs of 72 and 89 points, and a stingy defense that has pitched four consecutive shutouts.
Anybody have any predictions?
I said at the beginning of the season that I thought this would be the year SP lost a game. I don't want them to but i think it's going to happen
