Football Friday quotes
About Oxford, Mississippi, the home of Ole Miss, which has produced 3 Miss Americas: "It's town that smells of bourbon and Chanel No.5".
About the Virginia/Virginia Tech rivalry:
Former Ohio State quarterback and football analyst Kirk Herbstreit said in 2004 that he "never realized how much those people hate each other." He went on to say "when I was down in Blacksburg, I said some nice things about Al Groh and it was like I had turned my back on them."[
Virginia-Virginia Tech was one of six in-state rivalries that ESPN writer Bomani Jones attempted to explain by writing:
“ Every state has a flagship campus, typically called the University of Your State, whose student body and alumni feel they are entitled to, well, pretty much whatever they want within state lines. That same state probably has another school -- usually denoted by the words State, Tech, or A&M -- that gets treated by the former like some Bonaduce-headed stepchild. These rivalries are usually pretty intense -- and can get pretty ugly. ”
— Bomani Jones
Finally, Westlake starts the playoffs with San Antonio Ronald Reagan High School, the Rattlers. The game is at 1 PM CST at the Hays High School Stadium in Buda, Texas. If we won that, we'd play Corpus Christi Carroll High or San Antonio O'Connor High.
