Week 2 Power Rankings

Week 1 definitely did not disappoint as the majority of teams in the state got on the field for this first time this year. Week 2 has now rolled around and movement has occured among the top 10 teams in the state already. Let’s take a look at the Week 2 Power Rankings: <strong>1. Oak Grove (0-0)</strong> The Warriors did not get to open their 6A title defense last week due to moving to virtual learning. Coach Causey and his bunch will open their campaign this week at home. <strong>This week: </strong>vs. Seminary <strong>2. Oxford (1-0)</strong> In traditional Oxford fashion, the Chargers fought back from an early deficit to Brandon last week coming back to win 24-17. <a href="https://prepredzone.com/player/keegan-wilfawn/">[player_tooltip player_id="104475" first="Keegan" last="Wilfawn"],</a> <a href="https://prepredzone.com/player/alex-sanford/">[player_tooltip player_id="106769" first="Alex" last="Sanford"]</a> and Ben Goubeaux make up one of the state’s best linebacking corps. <strong>This week: </strong>vs. John Curtis Chapman (La.) <strong>3. West Point (0-0)</strong> Covid forced the cancellation of the Green Wave’s season opener last week and is also stealing away a traditional battle in the "Golden Triangle" this week against Starkville. <strong>This week: </strong>no game <strong>4. Madison Central (1-0)</strong> A 4th qtr TD gave Madison Central a win in Toby Collums head coaching debut for the Jags over West Jones last week and as a result MC moves up a spot in this weeks rankings. <a href="https://prepredzone.com/player/vic-sutton/">[player_tooltip player_id="108930" first="Vic" last="Sutton"]</a> was solid with 3 TD’s last week. Jackson area battle is up next this Friday in a non-divison 6A battle. <strong>This week: </strong>vs. Brandon <strong>5. Ocean Springs (1-0)</strong> Last week the Greyhounds showed why they may be the cream of the crop on the coast for 2021 with an 2OT offensive showdown win over Clinton. <a href="https://prepredzone.com/player/bray-hubbard/">[player_tooltip player_id="108938" first="Bray" last="Hubbard"]</a> was electric. <strong>This week: </strong>vs. Hattiesburg <strong>6. South Panola</strong> We are being deprived from a quality matchup in Northwest MS this week as we were supposed to have a top-10 matchup between South Panola and Oxford. The Tigers are slated to take the field for the first time next week. <strong>This week: </strong>no game <strong>7. Greenville Christian (2-0)</strong> The Saints had no mercy on J.Z. George last week, winning 58-0 and justly moving several spots up the rankings. <strong>This week: </strong>vs. Collins Hill (GA) <strong>8. West Jones (0-1)</strong> Even amidst a loss last week at Madison Central the Mustangs impressed and looked to be the class of 5A in the south half. <strong>This week: </strong>vs. Northeast Jones <strong>9. Louisville (1-0)</strong> Last weeks monster matchup vs. West Point was cancelled due to Covid leading to the Wildcats opening their title defense this week. <strong>This week: </strong>vs. Kemper County <strong>10. Neshoba Central (1-0)</strong> The Rockets got off to a fast 2021 start last week with a win over 6A Hernando 38-6.
