High school football: 100-point games, by the numbers

When Williamson (Mobile, Ala.) defeated Murphy (Mobile) 100-0 last week, it marked the 47th year in which the 100-point threshold had been reached at least twice during the high school football season. However, it was just the second time there were two or more 100-point games in the past 55 years.
