Central Gwinnett could be 5A darkhorse, Kudos to coaches

What a wild first full slate of games...St. Pius beats Westminster for the first time since 1992 thanks in large part to Geno Smith. He is better than advertised and ESPN and Rivals have him pretty high. Smith scored twice and on his first five touches recorded four first downs and one touchdown...

Speaking of Pius, the Golden Lions QB Trey White willed his way to several first downs late in the contest. He looked a bit like Timmy Byerly did one year ago for Chattahoochee...

Colquitt County scored 10 points in the last minute to defeat Madison County (FL), including a TD reception by UGA-bound TE Ty Smith...

George Morris only has an offer from Illinois but after his four-touchdown game, he should expect more in a hurry. And PS, Central Gwinnett knocked out Mountain View 54-14 and with a dominant running back in Morris, that Black Knights spread offense is scary with a quality QB and several WRs in the fold. Throw in a much-improved defense and CenGwin should be a 5A darkhorse...

Nice rally for a win for Centennial. Any win is a good win, just remember that...

Kudos to Randy McPherson of Lowndes and Tucker’s Franklin Stephens. The former reach 100 career wins and the latter won his 50th game last weekend...

And for all of the fine Gwinnett quarterbacks out there, some how Mill Creek’s John Russ and Duluth’s Anfernee Stewart have slipped through the cracks. Russ and Stewart both threw for two TDs apiece in victories. Russ also passed for 302 yards in the 35-27 win over Dacula.
