I don't think the Tomcats can handle Mitchell to be honest. The caliber of opponents that they have beaten this year is very high, and while the Tomcats have had good victories as well, even the best teams on that list aren't as tough as some of the ones Mitchell has faced.

 

Haywood does have two advantages though.

 

They have a mental edge on Mitchell, as for some reason these two schools have been consistently meeting each other the past several years in playoff situations on the hardcourt, and Haywood always comes out the winner. Even when Mitchell had Thad Young they couldn't beat the Tomcats. Granted, this is now on the gridiron, but some of that luck could still be with the 'Cats.

 

Homefield advantage. Brownsville can be a tough place to play IF the Tomcat fans get into the game.

 

I haven't followed Mitchell this year, but I'm going to assume that if they are physical enough to handle Melrose then they will be able to deal with the Tomcat's usually biggest advantage right there.

 

Logically, I have to think that Mitchell is going to take this one pretty handily, but for some reason I see Haywood coming out with the win over the Tigers yet again, if only because the cards seem to keep falling like that against them.

 

Just my two cents though.

This is going to be a tough game for us and we have to play well. It is so fuuny that when i put our schedule together a lot of people called me crazy for scheduling Melrose, CBHS, and Daphne(Mobile, Al) on the road. I did it because I knew that if we were to make it to the Boro we had to travel because of this years playoff format. I hope those games help us on Friday night. Haywood can match our size for sure, i have not seen their speed. One thing about HC they play hard in every sport. This will be a battle and a close game.

      Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!

      Way too early 1A favorites 2024

      I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
