1. Greenville Christian (8-1)
The Saints have dominated 2021 and been the talk of the state in high school football circles. Covid issues with their opponent kept them off the field last week.
This week: No game
2. Ocean Springs (6-0)
The Greyhound offense has been elite all year long but it was the defense last week pitching a shutout that led to a 35-0 win over Biloxi.
This week: @ Pascagoula
3. Starkville (7-0)
In true Starkville fashion the Yellow Jackets went on the road to Tupelo and came from behind to win in the 2nd half. One of the youngest teams in 6A continues to impress.
This week: @ Murrah
4. Oak Grove (5-1)
The Warriors got into a shootout with Meridian last week but their offense prevailed making them 52-34 winners.
This week: vs. Terry
5. West Point (4-2)
The Green Wave offense has started to mature but the defense is flat out nasty. One of the bigger tests of the division slate is on deck this week.
This week: @ Lake Cormorant
6. Madison Central (5-1)
Huge win for the Jags over Clinton last week as they hit the stretch run of the 2021 campaign. Big matchup upcoming this week on their home turf.
This week: vs. Tupelo
7. South Panola (5-1)
Ricky Woods has the Tiger defense playing up to standard. 14-6 winners over Southaven last week.
This week: @Lewisburg
8. West Jones (5-1)
Speaking of defenses, no one is going to want to see the one that belongs to West Jones come playoff time. The Mustangs have only given up 9 points since August 27th.
This week: @ Florence
9. Louisville (6-1)
As a theme in the power rankings update this week, Coach Shorter’s defense is playing at an elite level. 35-0 winners over Choctaw Central last week.
This week: @ West Lauderdale
10. Oxford (5-2)
Just don’t sleep on the Chargers. Continuing to progress from week to week after a nice victory over Germantown last week.
This week: @ Clinton
