The Milan/SG game is just for bragging. Same with Huntingdon/McKenzie. I may be wrong, but I don’t think McKenzie will hang with Huntingdon for next several years. But Milan/SGC was in the same region. The only problem with that region was everybody knew we weren't going to beat Haywood. I do understand the severity of the Huntingdon/Milan because it's a region game now, and that'll create excitement for this rivalry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Drunken Sailor Posted July 20, 2023 Report Share Posted July 20, 2023 I would say South Pittsburg vs. Jasper (Marion County). But sadly, that one is no more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeper Posted July 20, 2023 Report Share Posted July 20, 2023 Dyersburg vs Dyer County has been pretty hot for the past 20 years. They had to quit playing each other for a few years it got so hot. McKenzie and Dresden also had to stop playing each other for a few years as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

croz6110 Posted July 21, 2023 Report Share Posted July 21, 2023 Gordonsville and Smith County has been an intense rivalry. SC has won a whole lot more than Gordonsville, however, the games are usually pretty close. And, all the kids know each other rather well. In recent years, we've had a pretty good rivalry with Clay, as well. There is also Watertown, but that has waned in recent years. Since they built the bigger school, they've handled us for the most part. However, it's still a good rivalry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGPURPLEMACHINE Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 There is a discussion about West TN’s beat rivalries in football on West TN High School Athletics Facebook page. Lots of different rivalries mentioned. Huntingdung vs McKenzie was mentioned a few times and Milan vs South Gibson was mentioned a few times. But Milan vs Huntingdung was mentioned an overwhelming amount of times compared to the other two. You all may find the post interesting and may want to check it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
