Brad and James have quite a bit to cover in this week's episode.

We start by looking at the All-Area volleyball selections (1:57) and then quickly get into football. Last week saw Booneville take down Mooreville in a playoff game (4:04), while Aberdeen stunned Kossuth on the road (5:29). And Shannon finally ended its playoff win drought by thumping Leake Central (6:04).

There's more playoff action this week. Itawamba AHS visits New Albany in a rematch of a regular season game (8:13); Myrtle will try and take down reigning Class 1A champion Biggersville (9:48); and Amory will take its shot at two-time defending 4A champ Louisville (11:18).

Amid all this playoff business, basketball season has begun. The guys have a couple of updates on West Union's boys and Tupelo's girls (12:05).
