PETAL – There have been a few bumps in the road for the Petal boys this basketball season, and the Panthers hit another one Tuesday night in Region 3-7A play against Brandon.
The Bulldogs used their superior size to dominate the glass and grind the Panthers’ offense into ineffectiveness, resulting in a 61-53 victory at the Petal High Gymnasium.
Petal dropped to 12-9 overall and 3-2 region play, while Brandon evened its record at 10-10 and 2-2.

It’s done.
Gone are the days in college football when the SEC was shoved down everyone’s throats for six months out of the year after the conference finished 4-10 (.286) in the postseason.
Three of those wins came at the hands of either its own conference or a Group of Five school (Alabama over Oklahoma, Ole Miss over Georgia and Tulane). The only team to win a bowl game against another Power Four conference was Texas in a 41-27 win over Michigan — whose coach was arrested two weeks before the game.
