Pontotoc has the luxury of staying at home another week and will welcome North Pontotoc at 7 p.m. ET on Friday. The MaxPreps rankings favor Pontotoc, but they won't be able to rely on this superior ranking alone to carry them to victory.
It was a close one, but last Friday the Warriors sidestepped Shannon for a 17-14 victory.
Meanwhile, we expected North Pontotoc to have trouble with the significantly higher-ranked Corinth, and they did. The Vikings found themselves the reluctant recipients of an unpleasant 40-7 punch to the gut against Corinth. North Pontotoc was in a tough position by the half, with the score already sitting at 40 to nothing.
Pontotoc's win lifted them to 5-5 while North Pontotoc's loss dropped them down to 7-4. We'll find out if Pontotoc can add another positive mark to their record or if North Pontotoc can shake off the defeat and take the spring out of Pontotoc's step.
