Marshall's 2021 schedule SHOULD return to it's pre-COVID changes from 2020.  

That means Carthage will take the slot McKinney North took this past season.

 

AUG 27 @ New Caney
SEP 03 @ Longview
SEP 10 Carthage
SEP 17 OPEN
SEP 24 @ Pine Tree*
OCT 01 Jacksonville* (Homecoming)
OCT 08 @ Texas high*
OCT 15 Whitehouse*
OCT 22 @ Mount Pleasant*
OCT 29 Hallsville* (Senior Night)
NOV 05 @ Nacogdoches 

Random thoughts about the schedule

1.  Killer non-district schedule with NC, Longview, and Carthage.  All playoff teams.  Of course the Bulldogs are defending state champs.  Longview coming off a region semis and NC fought through a tough district race to make the playoffs.  Probably one of the top no-district slates in the state.  Mavs need a QB and an o-line in 2021.  Defense should be strong again.

2.  SIx Road games will be tough.  Especially with the long ride to NC.  Lobo Stadium has been a house of horrors for the Mavs.  And Texas High is always tough at Grim.

3.  Opening district game at Pine Tree.  Marshall has never lost at Pirate Stadium since it's opening.  Interesting game considering PT will be living life minus DJ Freeman.

4.  Big game to end the regular season in Nac.  Could have similar implications as the 2020 game.  

 

Any other schedule news out there?

Hearing there might be some changes to Nac’s schedule but I don’t see Boswell coming to Nacogdoches never know though. We should keep the Lufkin game and the Tyler high game. Might put Kilgore back as that first game.
