TONIGHT THE 7A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME AS THE 13-1 MILTON EAGLES TAKES ON THE 14-0 COLLINS HILL EAGLES.

WE CROWN TEN STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS OVER THE LAST THREE GAMES.

THIS GAME WILL BE THE SUPER BOWL.

THE MILTON EAGLES VERSUS COLLINS HILL EAGLES, IT'S KIND OF LIKE THE SUPER BOWL, NOT A WHOLE LOT MORE NEEDS TO BE SAID.

I WILL SAY THIS THOUGH, THERE'S ANOTHER BIRD TEAM IN TOWN, NAMELY, ATLANTA FALCONS THAT COULD USE SOME OF THESE GUYS TOMORROW.

>> YOU MIGHT WANT TO WRITE DOWN SOME OF THESE NAMES.

THEY MIGHT BE PLAYING FOR YOUR HOMETOWN TEAM VERY SOON.

A LOT OF TALENT ON THIS FIELD.

>> AS WE MENTIONED COLLINS HILL UNDEFEATED WON 22 OF LAST 23 GAMES.

THE ONLY GAME THEY LOSS DURING THAT STRETCH DATING BACK TO LAST YEAR WAS TO GRAYSON IN THE 7A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME A YEAR AGO.

THEY'RE GOING FOR THEIR FIRST EVER STATE CHAMPIONSHIP, THEY'VE DOMINATED THE SEASON HAVEN'T WON A GAME BY LESS THAN 15 POINTS ALL YEAR.

IT ALL STARTS WITH THE NUMBER ONE PROSPECT IN THE NATION, NUMBER ONE CORNER BACK IN THE NATION AND SPECTACULAR WIDE RECEIVER, FIVE-STAR TRAVIS HUNTER COMMITTED TO FLORIDA STATE.

>> YOU SAID IT, THE TOP PLAYER IN THE UNITED STATES WILL BE ON THE FIELD IN A COUPLE MINUTES, THE MATRIX, NEO, THAT'S THE KIND OF PLAYS HE MAKES DOWN THE FIELD.

BIG-TIME RECEIVER, OH, AND HIS COVER SKILLS ARE TOP-NOTCH.

>> AND HIS QUARTERBACK IS SPECTACULAR AS WELL.

FOUR-STAR SAM HORN, NUMBER NINE RATED QUARTERBACK IN THE NATION, COMMITTED TO MISSOURI.

>> COOL CAT WITH A BIG ARM, QUICK DECISION-MAKER, CAN MAKE ALL THE THROWS, BUT DON'T LET SAM FOOL YOU.

HE'S VERY ATHLETIC.

HE'S VERY FAST.

33 TOUCHDOWNS, 9 INTERCEPTIONS.

6 TOUCHDOWNS RUSHING.

WATCH FOR HIM TO MAKE BIG PLAYS WITH HIS FEET >> DEFENSIVE SIDE OF THE BALL.

UNDERRATED ASANI REDWOOD IS STARTING TO GET POWER FIVE OFFERS, VANDY AND NOW WEST VIRGINIA.

>> LENNY GREGORY HIS HEAD COACH SAID HE HAS THAT NFL-TALENT.

YOU JUST HAVEN'T RECOGNIZEED IT YET, MR. REDWOOD, WE ARE HERE TO RECOGNIZE IT TONIGHT.

A DEFENSE THAT ONLY HAS GIVEN UP 26 POINTS IN THE PLAYOFFS.

5.3 POINTS ON THE SEASON.

LET'S LINE IT UP YEAH .

>> YEAH, MILTON EAGLES AT 13-1 HAVE WON 12 IN A ROW SINCE THEIR ONLY LOSS IN AUGUST IN NORTH COBB, THE ONLY OTHER TEAM WHO HAD A SHOT TO GET TO THE 7A STATE FINAL THIS SEASON.

MILTON HAS BEEN SPECTACULAR.

THEY'RE GOING FOR THEIR SECOND STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

THEY WON IT IN 2018 AND FOR THEM IT STARTS ON THE DEFENSIVE SIDE OF THE BALL.

FIVE STAR NUMBER THREE RATED PROSPECT IN THE JUNIOR CLASS NUMBER ONE RATED DEFENSIVE LINEMAN IN THE COUNTRY IN THE CLASS OF 2023 LT OVERTON.

>> WE CALL HIM LT, JUST GET THE EARRINGS READY NFL.

THIS IS THE KIND OF TALENT YOU WILL SEE.

HE'S A FIVE-STAR.

HE'S A SPECIAL ATHLETE.

HE'S FINALLY HEALTHY AND HE IS HEAVY PERSONIFIED.

>> OFFENSIVE SIDE OF THE BALL STARTS WITH THEIR THREE-STAR QUARTERBACK, DEVIN FARRELL, TRUE DUAL THREAT COMMITTED TO VIRGINIA TECH.

>> HE HAS THAT IT FACTOR.

VERY FAST.

25 TOUCHDOWNS.

ONLY 4 INTERCEPTIONS ON THE SEASON.

WATCH HIM IN THE OPEN FIELD AVERAGING ALMOST 8 YARDS A RUSH WHEN HE PULLINGS IT DOWN.

>> OUT OF ALL OF THE THOSE STARS THE ONE GUY MAY BE THE DIFFERENCE TONIGHT THE THREE-STAR RUNNING BACK JORDAN MCDONALD COMMITTED TO DCF.

>> BIG MACK LAST TIME I SAW YOU PUT A SMILE ON MY FACE.

S HE'S HEALTHY.

HE RUNS VERY AGGRESSIVE.

HE'S A BRUISER AND HE'S SHOWN US HE'S A SUPERSTAR LAST TIME WE PUT HIM ON TV.

>> IN THE IMMORTAL WORDS OF TO, GET YOUR POPCORN READY, WE'RE READY TO GO, LET'S SEND IT TO WILY BALLARD STANDING BY AT CENTER PARK STADIUM.

>> THANKS, MATT, I'M READY TO GO AS WELL.

COLLINS HILL YOU MENTIONED THE MOST DOMINANT TEAM IN THE 7A WE CAUGHT UP WITH COACH ADAM CLACK THIS WEEK AND SAID THE FIRST TWO AND HALF QUARTERS OF THIS GAME IS MORE FOCUSED ON PLAYS RATHER THAN POINTS SO LONG AS THEY'RE IN STRIKING DISTANCE LATE IN THE THIRD QUARTER, WHY, BECAUSE HE BELIEVES HIS MILTON TEAM CAN WIN IT DEEP IN THE FOURTH QUARTER AND WANT AS MANY PLAYS OF THE OFFENSE AS THEY CAN ON THE FIELD WHICH MOST IMPORTANTLY KEEPS COLLINS HILL TALENT AND SAM HORN AND HUNTER OFF THE FIELD.

SO IT IS ALL ABOUT THE PLAYS OVER POINTS FOR HEAD COACH ADAM CLACK.

>> IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHO WINS THIS CHESS MATCH PLAYING WITH VERY PHYSICAL KINGS, QUEENS AND PAWNS IN THIS INCREDIBLE CHESS MATCH FOR THE 7A TITLE.

IT'S BEEN ANTICIPATED MOST OF THE SEASON THAT THESE TWO TEAMS WOULD COLLIDE IN ATLANTA TO DECIDE IT ALL.

>> ONE TEAM TRYING TO FINISH THE JOURNEY IN BIG STYLE GOING UNDEFEATED, BUT THIS MILTON EAGLES TEAM FEELS LIKE THEY HAVE THE TEAM TO DEFEAT ONE OF THE BEST TEAMS IN THE COUNTRY.

>> COLLINS HILL WON THE OPENING TOSS, WILL DEFER TO SECOND, QUESTION WILL SEE MILTON ON OFFENSE FIRST AND COLLINS HILL WILL KICK OFF, THE OPENING KICK OFF IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY BUCKLE UP GEORGIA, SEATBELTS SAVE LIVES.

ISAAC HAS IT TEED UP AND READY TO KICK OFF.

AND THE 7A FINAL IS UNDERWAY.

TAKEN AT THE 2 BY ABORTLE.

BIG COLLISION.

BALL OUT.

BORTLE LOST IT.

COLLINS HILL HAS IT OR THEY'RE GOING TO SAY HE WAS DOWN.

BUT HUGE COLLISION ON THE KICK OFF COVERAGE SEPARATE THE BORTLE BIG HIT ON BORTLES, I THINK HE'S HAVING TO BE HELPED OFF THE FIELD.

YOU CAN SEE KIND OF LOST HIS BEARINGS, BIG HIT TO START THE GAME.

>> DEVIN FARRELL FLAG OUT.

AS WE WATCH THE REPLAY I SAW IT JUST LIKE YOU, LOOKED LIKE THE BALL WAS OUT BEFORE HE HIT THE GROUND.

>> Referee: OFFENSE.

5 YARD MENTALITY.

5 YARD PENALTY.

STILL 1st DOWN.

>> YEAH THIS BALL IS OUT BEFORE HE HITS THE GROUND.

SO THEY CATCH A BREAK.

>> BALL IS COMING LOOSE.

NOBODY ON THE GROUND.

MILTON GETTING A BIG BREAK.

BIG HIT BY BRYANT THEIR LEADING TACKLE.

>> FROM THE 10 YARD LINE.

JORDAN MCDONALD.

BIG RUN.

PICKS UP 12 RIGHT OUT THE SHOOT.

DEVIN FARRELL 5,000 YARDS IN THREE YEARS AS A STARTER, AND 46 TOUCHDOWNS.

THAT WAS LT OVERTON CARRYING THE BALL ON THE SECOND SNAP OF THE GAME.

REGENT'S BRINGS IT TO YOU.

-- THERE'S MCDONALD.

SOPHOMORE RECEIVER, REALLY GOOD, ONE OF THE BEST THEY'VE EVER HAD.

FARRELL ON THE RUN GETS DROPPED AT THE 28.

>> >> LT OVERTON IN THE BACK.

YOU'RE RIGHT I THOUGHT I HAD THE WRONG NUMBER BACK THERE, STAYING IN THE GAME.

NICE BLOCKING, SHOWING THE KIND OF ATHLETE HE IS.

ONE OF THE TOP-NOTCH BASKETBALL PLAYERS FOR THE TEAM.

HE'S A DYNAMIC ATHLETE AND BIG BODY TO BRING DOWN 6'5", 265.

>> I HAD TO DO A DOUBLE TAKE BUT YEAH THAT'S LT IN THE BACK FIELD.

NOW HE DID THIS EARLY IN HIS CAREER AS A FRESHMAN AT BEST IMER ACADEMY.

HE RAN THE BALL.

HAVEN'T REALLY SEEN THAT WITH MILTON.

HOW ABOUT THIS.

ADAM CLACK BEING TRUE TO HIS WORD, HE WAS GOING TO THROW EVERYTHING AT COLLINS HILL AND LT OVERTON ON OFFENSE TO START THIS GAME IS CERTAINLY A WRINKLE THAT THEY PROBABLY DID NOT EXPECT.

SECOND DOWN AND NINE.

MCDONALD ON THE CUT BACK.

GETS ABOUT FOUR ON THE PLAY.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT COLLINS HILL ON DEFENSE.

BROUGHT TO YOU BY REGENT'S BACK.

-- LE GOT A LOT OF GUYS GUYS OFFERS.

HUNTER AND HARRIS AT THE CORNERS.

BRIDGE AND DAVIS.

DAVIS THREE-STAR SAFETY WITH 12 OFFERS, GEORGIA TECH AND TENNESSEE AMONG THEM.

3rd DOWN SACHBLD.

AND SIX.

LT OVERTON WITH THE CARRY HAS THE 1st DOWN >> LT BEING DRAGGED DOWN, PANTS AND EVERYTHING, BIG STAR, DEFENSIVE END, HEAVY FORMATION.

TOO TIGHT.

THAT'S HILL.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT SIZE.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A GENTLEMAN, 6'5", CLOSE TO 270.

HAS BEEN WITH INJURED A LITTLE BIT THIS YEAR WITH HIS FOOT RIGHT THERE SHOWING THE KIND OF ATHLETE HE IS TO HAND HIM THE BALL.

>> FIRST AND TEN FROM THE 39 YARD LINE.

MCDONALD GOING TO TAKE A DIRECT SNAP HERE.

MCDONALD COUPLE YARDS ON THE PLAY.

SO HOW SURPRISED ON THE SURPRISE METER ARE YOU THAT WE SEE LT OVERTON IN THE BACK?

>> I THINK IT'S ONE OF THOSE PLAYS AS A TEMPO SETTER FOR MILTON.

THEY CAME INTO THIS GAME, GOING TO MAKE IT AN UGLY, PHYSICAL GAME, YOU'RE GOING TO SEE MULTIPLE PEOPLE HANDLING THE BALL WHY NOT PUT YOUR BIG SUPERSTAR BI DEEP TACKLE IN THERE AND LET HIM WEAR DOWN THE COLLINS HILL DEFENSIVE FRONT.

>> SECOND DOWN AND NINE.

ABOUT A DECADE AGO GRAYSON DID THE SAME THING IN 2011 IN THEIR CHAMPIONSHIP VICTORY FOR WALTON AND YOU KNOW WHO THE DEFENSIVE COORDINATORS FOR GRAYSON WAS, THE GUY WHO IS HEAD COACH OF COLLINS HILL RIGHT NOW >> I GUESS HE KEPT THAT FILED IN THE CABINET, PULLED IT OUT AND RIGHT NOW IT'S EFFECTIVE.

CREATING THIRD AND TWO.

DIRECT SNAP ONCE AGAIN TO JORDAN MCDONALD.

>> MCDONALD GOING TO GET THE 1st DOWN.

WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE KEYS TO THE GAME.

THEY ARE BROUGHT TO YOU BY -- MANAGEMENT.

>> FOR MILTON.

GAS UP MCDONALD.

HEAVY BACK FIELD.

TWO TIGHTENDS.

THEY'RE GOING TO TRY TO RUN HEAVY PLAYS AND WEAR ON THIS DEFENSIVE.

THE OTHER SIDE, COLLINS HILL STOP THE RUN.

SO FAR SO GOOD FOR MILTON.

YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THEY'LL GET A HEAVY DOSE OF JORDAN MCDONALD RUN DOWN HILL THIS IS THE TENTH PLAYOFF THE DRIVE.

FIRST AND TEN FROM THE 50.

>> GOT LT FLEXED OUT AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN THEY'RE DMITRIED TO PUTTING HIM OUT.

>> THROW A SCREEN PASS.

LITTLE GAME ON THE PLAY.

BRYCE THORNTON ANOTHER GUY THAT'S BEEN A DEFENSIVE GUY MOST OF THE SEASON, THEY GOT HIM ON OFFENSE.

SO ADAM CLACK WASN'T KIDDING WHEN I SAID HE WAS GOING TO THROW EVERYTHING AT THEM, AND THE PLAYERS ARE GOING TO PLAY UNTIL THERE'S NOTHING LEFT IN THE TANK.

A LOT OF GUYS PLAYING DEFENSE, PLAYING OFFENSE.

>> AT THIS 7A LEVEL A LOT TIMES GUYS ONLY HAVE TO GOOD ONE WAY SO YOU ONLY SEE THEM ON OFFENSE, THIS DEFENSE, NOT REALLY SURE WHAT TO LINE UP AGAINST.

ONE THING WE TALKED ABOUT IS THEIR TACKLING.

THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO BRING DOWN SOME OF THE BETTER ATHLETES IN THE COUNTRY.

>> THEY'VE BURNED FIVE MINUTES OFF THE CLOCK ALREADY.

DEVIN FARRELL PICKS UP THE 1st DOWN AT 39.

>> SO QUICK.

GREAT VISION.

SELLING THE READ ZONE TO THE LEFT.

CATCHING CRAWFORD.

SLEEPING.

HEAD FAKE BEATING THE END.

GET TO THE OUTSIDE.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ONE OF THE FASTER PLAYERS AT THAT POSITION IN THIS STATE.

YOU SEE FARRELL'S NUMBERS ON THE SEASON.

CLOSE TO 2300 YARDS PASSING, 325 ON THE GROUND AND 22 TOUCHDOWNS.

>> BACK TO THAT HEAVY FORMATION.

TWO TIGHTENDS IN THE GAME.

>> MCDONALD AND ADAM CLACK WHEN WE TALKED TO HIM ON THURSDAY IN PREPARATION FOR THIS GAME FELT LIKE THEY HAD A PHYSICAL ADVANTAGE IN THIS GAME AND WERE GOING TO DO THEIR BEST TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT.

>> WE TALKED ABOUT FARRELL.

WE TALKED ABOUT THORNTON.

WE TALKED ABOUT MCDONALD, THE BIGGEST WEAPON ADAM CLACK MIGHT HAVE GETTING PHYSICAL ON THE O-LINE UP FRONT, TALKING ABOUT 280, 300, AND 295 ACROSS THE BOARD.

A LOT OF SIZE.

TYLER WILLIAMS RIGHT GUARD, 315.

>> POWER FIVE OFFENSIVE LINE.

HAND OFF MCDONALD.

NO.

THE KEEPER INSIDE BY FARRELL.

FARRELL DOWN AT 33.

WE HAVE A FLAG ON THE FIELD.

>> NICE PLAY ACTION FAKE, EVEN FAKED THE CAMERAMAN OUT FOR A SECOND.

>> Referee: HOLDING.

>> THE REFEREE AND WORKING THIS 7A CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WITH PENALTY.

THIS GAME PLAN OF RUN THE BALL, RUN THE BALL, SHOVE IT DOWN THEIR THROATS NOW CAN THEY OVERCOME PLAYING BEHIND THE CHAINS.

>> THAT'S THE KIND OF THING WHEN YOU RUN' THIS KIND OF OFFENSE.

MILTON HAS THE RECEIVING CORE TO BE IN THESE SITUATIONS, MAKE PASSES DOWN THE FIELD WITH FARRELL.

FLIGHT THEY'VE BEEN TRY RIGHT NOW THEY'VE BEEN TRYING TO RUN THE BALL.

JORDAN MCDONALD TEN YARDS DEEP ON THIS OPTION.

>> FARRELL.

FAKES THE PITCH.

SCRAMBLES DOWN TO THE 38 YARD LINE.

RICHARD DORSEY MAKING THE TACKLE FOR THE EAGLES.

>> IF YOU'RE COLORADO COLLINS HILL PUT IT IN YOUR NOTEBOOK.

COLLINS HILL PICKING UP HALF THE DOWN IN DISTANCE.

>> 13 RUNS, JUST 1 PASS ON THIS OPENING DRIVE.

THEY HELD THE BALL ENTIRE QUARTER.

NEARLY EIGHT MINUTES.

3rd DOWN AND NINE NOW.

PASS THROWN.

IT'S GOING TO SET UP A 4th DOWN.

CATCH WAS MADE BY ADAM FREASE, THE SENIOR.

4th DOWN KNOW.

AND THEY'RE GOING FOR IT.

>> A NICE PLAY.

NICE PLAY CALL IF THAT'S YOUR MINDSET.

THIRD AND NINE.

RUN A SAFE PLAY.

STOP ROUTE.

PICK UP THAT HALF DOWN IN DISTANCE NOW WITH THE ABILITY OF YOUR QUARTERBACK AND HOW HE CAN MAKE PLAYS WITH HIS FEET.

THIS IS A GREAT GAMBLE EARLY BETTING ON DEVIN FARRELL.

>> HE TOLD US, LOOK, I'M GOING FOR IT ON 4th DOWN, IF IT'S REASONABLE WE'RE GOING FOR IT ON 4th DOWN AND WE GET A FIRST TEST OF THAT PHILOSOPHY HERE ON THEIR OPENING DRIVE.

FARRELL IN THE POCKET.

SCRAMBLE.

GOING TO GO DOWN.

AND COLLINS HILL HAS RALLIED AND STOPPED THE DRIVE.

COLLINS HILL IS GOING TO GET THE BALL.

BALL GOES OVER ON DOWNS.

SO COLLINS HILL COMES UP BIG WHEN THEY NEED TO.

DIONNE CRAWFORD MAKING THE TACKLE AND EAGLES WILL TOUCH THE BALL FOR THE FIRST TIME WHEN WE GET BACK.

>>> THREE AND HALF MINUTES LEFT IN THE FIRST QUARTER.

COLLINS HILL TOUCHING THE BALL FOR THE FIRST TIME.

IN ADDITION TO EARNING RESPECT CAN QUALIFY FOR MORE INFORMATION ARMY.COM/BONUS.

OFF USAARMY PAID FOR BY THE USA ARMY.

SO 16 MINUTE DRIVE NO POINT AND ATE THE MINUTES OFF THE CLOCK.

>> HOW AGGRESSIVE THE OFFENSE FEELS TO GET DOWN THE FIELD WITH BIG PLAY TEAM THAT MILTON CAME IN WITH A GAME PLAN TAKING THE AIR OFF THE BALL.

>> SEE IF THEY TAKE A SHOT RIGHT AWAY.

SCREEN PASS TO TRAVIS HUNTER.

BEATS BRYCE THORNTON >> NICE JOB BRYCE THORNTON UNABLE TO BRING DOWN TRAVIS HUNTER .

>> THORNTON JUST UNDER 75 YARDS PASSING IN HIS ILLUSTRIOUS CAREER.

BALD ENDS UP ON THE GROUND TRYING TO RUN A SCREEN PLAY TO CAM PEDRO.

WE LOOK AT JALEN GEORGE AT LEFT TACKLE, TWO YEAR STARTER.

AND YOU GO TO RICHARDSON, COMMITTED TO BMI.

THE SPECIALIST, ETHAN DAVIS, A FOUR-STAR TIGHTEND AND ASANI REDWOOD, FEEDBACK ON OFFENSE, NOT ON THE FI MILTON RALLIES TO THE BALL NO RUNNING ROOM ON THAT CARRY.

>> GOOD TO SEE PAYTON AFTER MISSING LAST WEEK'S GYM.

-- GAME.

A LITTLE BIT PRESSURE.

GOOD DEFENSE.

DIPPING HIS HEAD IN IS DILLON MILLER.

SEE THE LINEBACKER.

NOWHERE TO RUN.

LOT OF BODIES AT THE BALL.

LOT OF ENERGY BY MILTON ON DEFENSE.

>> SIRE GEORGIA SOUTHERN COMMITTEE ON THAT TACKLE.

3rd DOWN AND NINE.

OVER SHOOTS HIS MAN AT THE 35 YARD LINE.

THAT'S GOING TO BE A THREE AND OUT.

THE FOURTH WILL BE A PUNT INTENDED FOR CHASE NASH.

AND FOURTH FIND.

AND FOURTH AND NINE.

>> GETTING SAM HORN ON THE MOVE, CAN THROW ON THE RUN, JUST NOWHERE TO GO WITH THE BALL.

TRYING TO FORCE IT IN TO CHASE NASH.

WE TALK ABOUT BRYCE THORNTON ONE OF THE BETTER SAFETY YOUR GOING TO SEE PLAY IN HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL.

LONG AND RANGY RIGHT THERE.

NOWHERE TO PUT THAT BALL FOR HORN.

>> I WAS RIGHT, IT IS FOUR AND OUT.

THEY HAD TEN YARD COMPLETION AND THREE CONSECUTIVE PLAYS FAILING TO PICK UP THE 1st DOWN.

HORN PUNT GOES INTO THE END ZONE AND SO MILTON WILL BRING IT OUT TO THE 20 YARD LINE WITH 2:19 TO PLAY HERE IN THE FIRST QUARTER.

AND AFTER HOLD THE BALL FOR EIGHT AND HALF MINUTES, MILTON SENDS THE OFFENSE BACK OUT.

>> I REALLY BELIEVE WHEN YOU WATCH JUST AFTER THAT FIRST DRIVE THAT COLLINS HILL OFFENSE FELT A LITTLE, HEY, WE'RE NOT GOING GET A LOT OF PRIZE ON THIS -- PRIDE ON THIS FIELD TONIGHT.

WE FEEL THE PRESSURE TO MAKE BIG PLAYS.

>> I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE KIND OF A GAME OF CHICKEN, WHICH COACH WILL BLINK FIRST AND BREAK THE GAME PLAN.

FARRELL.

QUARTERBACK SACK THAT WAS JALEN GEORGE, BIG 6'3", 260 SENIOR WITH THE SACK.

>> Wayne: FLAG ON THE FIELD.

INITIALLY GOOD PROTEGS.

>> HOLDING.

DEFENSE.

1st DOWN.

>> WOW.

ERASE THE QUARTERBACK SACK FOR JAYLEN GEORGE.

>> IN THESE SITUATIONS YOU HAVE TO HAVE THE CLOCK IN YOUR HEAD, YOU WON'T HAVE TIME WITH THIS DEFENSE, COMING IN WITH 55.5 SACKS.

YOU HAVE TO PASS THE RUSHERS.

THE LINEBACKERS ARE AGGRESSIVE.

HAVE TO MAKE BIG DECISIONS GETTING THE BALL OUT OF YOUR HAND.

>> SEE THE PLAY DISPARITY AND TIME OF POSSESSION DISPARITY.

MCDONALD NOTHING DOING RIGHT THERE.

VERY LITTLE RUNNING ROOM.

THAT'S DAVIS BILLY MAKING THE TACKLE.

>> GOOD PRESSURE, PHYSICALITY BY THE NOSE TACKLE CEDRIC RICHARDSON NUMBER 50.

PUSHING THE CENTERBACK.

NOT GIVING MCDONALD ANYWHERE TO RUN.

THAT'S WHAT YOU GOT TO DO AGAINST THIS OFFENSIVE LINE.

YOU CAN'T LET THEM PLAY.

THEY CAN TAKE OVER THE GAME.

YOU GOT TO TRY TO GET SOME PENETRATION.

THEY'RE TOO BIG.

THEY'RE TOO ATHLETIC TO CONTINUE TO LET THEM PLAY ON YOUR SIDE OF THE BALL.

ON.

>> HUNTER AND GATLING, MICHIGAN STATE FOUR YEAR STARTER IS THE ONE CONNECTION BACK TO 2018 STATE TITLE TEAM, HE'S THE ONE GUY ON THE FIELD THAT PLAYED AS A FRESHMAN FOR MILTON BACK THEN.

>> STOUT BIG TARGET, 6'4", 23 O ONE OF THE BESTER BLOCKERS AT THAT POSITION.

HAVE TO WATCH HIM IN THE PASS GAME.

HE'S A SAFETY.

GOT GREAT HANDS.

SURE-HANDED GUY BUT RIGHT NOW DEPENDED ON TO BLOCK.

>> UNDER A MINUTE TO PLAY IN THE OPENING QUARTER.

IT'S 3rd DOWN FARRELL MAKES A MAN MISS.

FLAG IS OUT.

SEE IF IT WILL ERASE THE 1st DOWN BY DEVIN FARRELL.

>> HAVING HIM DEAD RIGHT IS JAYLEN GEORGE.

>> Referee: HOLDING.

OFFENSE.

10-YARD PENALTY FROM THE SPOT OF THE FOUL.

REPLAY 3rd DOWN.

>> HOLDING CALL RIGHT THERE.

RECEIVER NOT SEEING -- RIGHT THERE -- MIGHT HAVE BEEN RIGHT THERE.

BUT IT CAME OUT A LITTLE EARLIER.

MAY HAVE BEEN ON MO CLIFFORD, LEFT TACKLE.

WHENEVER THE BALL CHANGES FIELD IT CATCHES THAT BLOCKER BY SURPRISE.

JUST WANT TO OVER COMPENSATE AND START GRABBING JERSEYS.

>> SOUND LIKE SOMEONE WHO EXPERIENCE THAT FIRSTHAND.

FARRELL RETREATING.

DANCES OUT OF THE PRESSURE.

AND THEN GETS TRIPPED UP.

NICE PLAY BY ROBERTO BRYANT THEIR LEADING TACKLER.

LINEBACKER GOT IN THERE AND DROP FARRELL.

.

>> FOURTH AND LONG THIS COLLINS HILL MIGHT BE THE BEST DEFENSE OVERALL IN THE STATE, 55.5 SACKS, 17 INTERCEPTIONS WHEN THEY ENTERED THIS GAME ONLY LESS THAN 6 POINTS A GAME.

>> 5.8.

>> HA HA, ALMOST LIKE A MIS PRINT.

>> EXACTLY.

5.8.

SIX SHUT OUTS, 75 TOTAL POINTS ALLOWED.

THEY GET LOST IN THE SHUFFLE DON'T THEY.

YOU TALK ABOUT THIS HIGH-POWERED COLLINS HILL OFFENSE.

THEY GET LOST IN THE SHUFFLE.

12 MINUTES DONE AT CENTER PARK STADIUM HERE IN THE 7A FINAL, WE'RE SCORELESS.

MILTON PUNTING WHEN WE START THE SECOND.

CHB SENIOR CLASS HAS HAD A LOT OF TALENT WITH A STEADY RISE TO GET HERE TONIGHT.

AT EIGHTH GRADER LOST JUST ONE GAME AND LAST YEAR LOST IN THE STATE FINAL.

THE MOTTO THIS SEASON, FINISH THE MISSION ACCORDING TO COACH LENNY GREGORY.

AND FOR COLLINS HILL IT'S BEEN A MATTER OF SIMPLY TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO MAINTAIN THEIR CALM, THEIR DERISION.

AND WE'LL GO BACK UP STAIRS TO MATT.

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH, WILY.

MILTON PUNTING HERE.

BALL AT THE 22.

KICKED OUT OF THERE AND FIELDED BY TRAVIS HUNTER.

FLAG IS OUT.

AND HE FIGHTS BACK TO THE 37 YARD LINE.

THAT'S WHERE COLLINS HILL IS GOING TO GO ON OFFENSE.

THEY'VE RUN ONLY FOUR OFFENSIVE PLAY SO FAR IN THIS GAME.

>> AND YOU FEEL LIKE AFTER THAT FIRST QUARTER EVEN THOUGH THE SCORE IS 0-0, YOU HAVE TO GIVE IT TO MILTON.

THEY CAME OUT AND ACCOMPLISHED ONE OF THEIR MISSIONS, WHICH WOULD BE PHYSICAL, RUN A LOT OF PLAYS AND SHORTEN THE PLAY FOR COLLINS HILL.

>> Referee: DURING THE RETURN, BLOCKING THE BACK, 13, 10-YARD PENALTY FROM THE SPOT OF THE FOUL, 1st DOWN.

>> FOLLOWING UP ON WILY'S REPORT, HE MENTIONED THE EIGHTH GRADE TEAM ONLY WON ONE GAME.

CAVEAT, TRAVIS DIDN'T PLAY FOR THAT GAME.

HE HAD MOVED TO ATLANTA FROM THE STATE OF FLORIDA, HIS FAMILY, JOINED COLLINS HILL IN THE 9th GRADE.

>> WHAT A CAREER HE'S HAD SINCE THAT POINT MAKING HIMSELF TOP TALENT IN THE NATION.

HAVING TO CHOOSE NEXT YEAR, GOING TO FLORIDA STATE.

REALLY BE A RECEIVER.

REALLY BE A CORNER BACK.

>> COLLINS HILL TRYING TO GET SOMETHING STARTED ON OFFENSE RIGHT THERE.

HAND OFF GOES TO RYAN STEVEN HIS FIRST CARRY OF THE BALL GAME.

NOTHING DOING AGAINST THIS MILTON DEFENSE.

>> NICE JOB STAYING HOME.

DILLON MILLER.

GETTING OFF THE BLOCK.

KEEPING THAT SHOULDER CLEAN.

THAT'S A BIG PASS, BRINGING DOWN RYAN STEVENS, 6'2", 230.

STRONG POWERFUL BACK AND HOLD HIM TO ONE YARD GAIN.

>> SECOND DOWN AND NINE.

HORN SET UP THE SCREEN PASS TO TRAVIS HUNTER.

THEY GOT HIM HEMMED IN.

GOING TO DROP HIM.

LD OVERTON TACKLING TRAVIS HUNTER WE'RE HERE FOR THAT ALL NIGHT.

LET'S LOOK ACCESS THE DIES OF THE GAME LET'S LOOK AT THE KEYS OF THE GAME.

>> PROTECT SAM HORN, CAN YOU DO IT, LT. GET AFTER THE QUARTERBACK.

AND MILTON ON DEFENSE, YOU HAVE TO EXPECT WITH THE TALENT LEVEL THAT COLLINS HILL HAS, THEY'RE GOING TO MAKE SOME PLAYS TO MAKE THEM EARN EACH YARD.

SO FAR SO GOOD.

>> GREAT SPONSOR BY GPB HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL.

IT'S 3rd DOWN SACHBLD.

IT'S 3rd DOWN AND SIX.AND SIX.

IT'S 3rd DOWN AND SIX.

FLAG OUT AGAIN.

PLAY BLOWN DEAD.

>> .

>> Referee: DELAY OF GAME.

OFFENSE.

FIVE-YARD PENALTY.

STILL 3rd DOWN.

>> FRUSTRATED LENNY GREGORY.

SO FAR.

MILTON'S GAME PLAN HAS HAD THE BETTER OF THIS GAME.

EVEN THOUGH WE'RE SCORELESS AND THAT'S ULTIMATELY WHAT COUNTS THE MOST.

MILTON HAS CONTROL OF THE GAME WITH THEIR GAME PLAN.

COLLINS HILL HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET INTO THEIR GAME PLAN BECAUSE OF WHAT MILTON HAS DONE.

>> I WANT GREAT JOB, PLAYING WITH A LOT OF ENERGY, SEE A LOT OF WHITE JERSEYS.

RALLYING TO THE BALL.

HERE WE GO, LT OVERTON WHO CAN BLOCK HIM IN THIS SITUATION, 3rd AND 11.

>> HORN CHASED BY LT.

GOING TO SCRAMBLE OUT-OF-BOUNDS AT 29 YARD LINE.

WELL SHORT OF 1st DOWN.

ANOTHER PUNTING SITUATION FOR COLLINS HILL.

>> WORKING OFF THE RIGHT TACKLE SIDE, NUMBER 9.

BULL, SNATCH, RIP, RIGHT THERE, WITH THE PRESSURE.

AND THAT'S ONE THING COACH IS GOING TO HAVE TO WATCH OUT IN THIS GAME AS IT GOES ON.

I KNOW YOU WANT TO PUT HIM ON OFFENSE AND RUN HIM.

HE'S A BIG GUY TO PLAY RUNNING BACK AND THEN CHASE THE QUARTERBACK.

>> HORN STANDING AT 16 TO PUNT.

HE DOES THAT VERY WELL TOO.

I HAVEN'T FOUND ANYTHING HE DOESN'T DO VERY WELL.

HE'S ALSO AN OUTSTANDING RIGHT-HANDED PITCHER WHO WILL PLAY BASEBALL AT MISSOURI AS WELL AS PLAY QUARTERBACK.

34 YARD KICK BY HORN RIGHT THERE.

AND THE THING I REALLY ENJOY ABOUT SAM HORN, YOU CALL HIM COOL SAM HORN, WE SAW A LITTLE FIRE OUT OF SAM HORN LAST WEEK AT GRAYSON.

>> YEAH, YOU SAW HIM, SEEMED LIKE HE WAS EXERCISING SOME DEMONS AGAINST GRAYSON AND COUPLE THESE PUNT SO FAR IN THIS GAME NEED TO TAKE OUT SOME ANGER OUT ON THAT BALL, TAKE THAT OFFENSIVE FRUSTRATION OFF.

NICE PUNTING SO FAR IN THIS GAME.

>> MILTON BACK ON OFFENSE FROM THE 37.

FARRELL GOING TO RUN IT UP THE MIDDLE AND GET STOPPED THERE BY ASANI REDWOOD.

AS I MENTIONED REDWOOD UP UNTIL RECENTLY HAD NO POWER FIVE OFFERS, BUT VANDY AND WEST VIRGINIA HAVE JUMPED IN.

IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS WITH HIM.

LEADING UP TO NATIONAL SIGNING DAY.

>> 17 SACKS.

HE CAME INTO THIS GAME WITH 105 TACKLES.

37 TACKLES FOR LOSS.

AND HEAD COACH LENNY GREGORY SAYS HE'S ONE OF THOSE GUYS THAT PROVE THAT THE SYSTEM IS A LITTLE OFF, THAT THESE GUYS COME AND THEY ROLL, ONCE THEY GET TO THEIR SENIOR YEAR THEY'RE NOT GETTING THE RECOGNITION THEY SHOULD.

>> FARRELL ON THE RUN, PICKS UP THE 1st DOWN AND MORE, DODGES SOME TACKLERS, STEPS OUT-OF-BOUNDS AT THE 40 YARD LINE.

20 YARD PICK UP FOR DEVIN FARRELL.

>> GOOD JOB NOT LIKING WHAT HE SEES OUT ON THE EDGE.

THIS TIME BEING QUICK WITH HIS DECISION THAT HE'S GONNA RUN.

YOU'RE LOOKING AT A TRUE DUAL THREAT.

I KNOW WE THROW THAT AROUND BUT HE'S DEFINITELY THAT GUY.

HE IS EQUALLY AS EFFECTIVE ONCE HE LEADS AND THE POCKET BREAKS DOWN.

>> COMMITTED TO VIRGINIA TECH IN FEBRUARY.

OVER 11 OFFERS INCLUDING GEORGIA TECH AND WAKE FORREST.

THROWING HERE AND INCOMPLETE.

LENNY GREGORY WANTS A GROUNDING CALL.

PRESSURE COMING FROM DEVIN DAVIS BILLY.

>> HE HAS A GREAT CASE KNOX RECEIVER REALLY IN THE AREA.

DIDN'T SEE DEVIN FARRELL GET OUTSIDE THE POCKET EITHER.

>> Referee: INTENTIONAL GROUNDING T ON THE OFFENSE, FIVE YARD PENALTY FROM THE SPOFT THE FOUL.T THE FOUL.

2nd DOWN.

>> BIG PRESSURE UP THE MIDDLE.

NUMBER 32, DEVIN DAVIS BILLINGS, INTENTIONAL GROUNDING.

>> SO MILTON RETREATING WITH THE PENALTY.

DEVIN FARRELL RECENTLY THE HOKEY'S FIRED JUSTIN FUENTE THEIR HEAD COACH BUT HE'S REMAINED STEAD FAST IN HIS COMMITMENT TO CT. FARRELL GOING TO RUN IT UP THE MIDDLE.

DEVIN FARRELL GETS IT ALL BACK AND GETS THE 1st DOWN.

FINALLY CHASED DOWN BY JADEN DAVIS.

FLAG OUT AGAIN.

>> Referee: HOLDING.

OFFENSE.

10-YARD PENALTY FROM THE SPOT OF THE FOUL.

STILL SECOND DOWN.

>> THAT WILL ERASE A 25-YARD RUN.

>> NICE JOB READ.

RPO.

LOOK AT THE TACKLE.

BREAKING TACKLE.

STIFF ARM.

IT'S ALL COMING BACK.

YOU CAN SEE THE KIND OF TALENT THAT FARRELL POSSES.

AS THE GAME IS STARTING TO UNFOLD, MILTON GETTING AWAY FROM THE POWER RUN GAME WE SAW IN THE FIRST DRIVE, WITH MORE RPO, FARRELL HAVING TO RUN, AND NOW WE'RE SEEING HIM STARTING TO BREAK DOWN NOT JUST WITH THE PENALTIES BUT WITH NEGATIVE PLAYS.

>> YEAH THAT'S WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT.

WHO CAN STICK WITH THEIR GAME PLAN THE LONGEST?

MCDONALD WITH 7 CARRIES 27 YARDS FARRELL THEIR LEADING RUSHER 8 FOR 42.

NOW MCDONALD GOING TO RUN IT AGAIN.

RIGHT UP THE MIDDLE BOWLS HIS WAY TO AN EIGHT, NINE-YARD GAIN, FOLLOWING THE BLOCKS OF TYLER WILLIAMS WHO HAS BEEN OFFERED BY MIAMI AND ARKANSAS STATE >> WHEN YOU HAVE THIS KIND OF OFFENSIVE LINE, 270 AT THE CENTER.

WILLIAMS.

AND BESS ON THE RIGHT SIDE.

315, 295, DON'T OUTTHINK YOURSELF.

JUST STICK WITH THE GAME PLAN.

TWEAK IT AS A GO ALONG.

BUT CONTINUE TO CHALLENGE THIS DEFENSE AND RUN RIGHT AT IT.

SEE IF IT ACTUALLY WANTS TO WIN THIS GAME.

>> 3rd DOWN AND 21.

MILTON CONTINUES TO DOMINATE THE TIME OF POSSESSION.

IN THIS GAME.

TYPICALLY T .O.P.NOT A BIG DEAL BUT WILL BE IN THIS GAME.

>> Referee: TIMEOUT.

>> CAN'T HELP BUT RECOGNIZE THE IRONY OF THIS BIG, SOLID DEFENSIVE END NAMED REDWOOD.

>> HA HA.

>> THINK OF A BIG REDWOOD TREE TRUNK, JUST FITS HIS PERSONALITY, HIS STYLE SO WELL, AND THE KICK'S GOING TO GO OUT-OF-BOUNDS.

YOU MIGHT ASK RIGHT NOW WHY THE HECK IF HE IS SO GOOD DOES ASANI REDWOOD HAVE SO FEW OFFERS?

HE'S ONLY BEEN PLAYING AMERICAN FOOTBALL -- I SAY AMERICAN FOOTBALL -- FOR TWO YEARS, HE'S FROM JAMAICA.

PLAYED SOCCER GROWING UP.

DIDN'T REALLY KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE GAME OF FOOTBALL UNTIL HE GOT TO COLLINS HILL, AND IS A GUY THAT'S GOING TO NEED SOME SEASONING, GOING TO NEED A RED SHIRT AND TO MATURE, AND WHAT HE HEARS A LOT FROM COLLEGE COACHES, BELIEVE IT OR NOT IS, WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO DEVELOP PLAYERS ANY MORE.

SOMEBODY'S GOING TO TAKE THE TIME TO DEVELOP THAT YOUNG MAN AND HE'S GOING TO BE AN OUTSTANDING COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYER.

LENNY GREGORY THINKS HE'LL BE IN THE NFL.

HORN TO THE AIR.

THAT'S COMPLETE.

SHORT GAIN.

CAM PEDRO, YOU MENTIONED, HE WAS OUT LAST WEEK, COMMITMENT TO MARSHALL, DIDN'T GET TO PLAY IN THE SEMIFINALS.

SHORT CAMPAIGN FOR PEDRO >> EMPTY BACK FIELD, GETTING THE BALL OUT OF THE HAND, SAM HORN TO CAM PEDRO, TRYING TO GET SOME POSITIVE YARDS, GET A DRIVE GOING AND RIGHT NOW SHOOTING TO DO IT THROUGH THE AIR.

>> HORN IN TROUBLE.

GOING TO TAKE A SACK.

AARON OSTER LD OVER LT OVERTON IN ON THAT QUARTERBACK SACK.

>> BIG TIME PRESSURE, CRAWFORD OFF THE EDGE.

38.

WITH THE BULL RUSH.

PULL THE LEFT TACKLE DOWN AND GET TO THE INSIDE AND ALL HIS BUDDIES CAME IN TO DLEEN UP.

>> HIS BROTHER PAUL OUTSTANDING OFFENSIVE LINE NOW FOR THE CLEMSON TIGERS.

HIS BROTHER WITH NINE OFFERS INCLUDING MARYLAND AND VIRGINIA TECH.

THIRD AND EIGHT.

HORN GUNS IT.

OFF BY TRAVIS HUNTER IN THE OPEN FIELD.

HUNTER TRYING TO GET AROUND THE EDGE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DO THAT AS HE GETS TACKLED GOES OUT-OF-BOUNDS.

>> NICE JOB OF STEPPING UP IN THE POCKET BY SAM HORN TO DELIVER THIS BALL.

TRAVIS HUNTER 6'2", ABOUT 175.

GET BEHIND THE DEFENSE.

NICE JOB OF FINDING THAT OPENING.

NOT SURE WHY HE'S GOING EAST AND WEST AFTER THE CATCH RIGHT THERE.

BUT NICE JOB SECURING THE CATCH FOR HIS QUARTERBACK.

>> THEY HAVE A FLAG OUT AT THE END OF THAT PLAY RIGHT THERE.

>> PLAY OUT ON THE BOUNDARY, PROBABLY A PERSONAL FOUL.

>> HIT ON THE DEFENSE.

15-YARD PENALTY FROM THE END OF THE RUN.

1st DOWN.

>> THAT'S ABSOLUTELY A HUGE BREAK FOR COLLINS HILL.

>> QUICK SCREEN, GET THE BALL OUT TO NASH OUT ON THE EDGE AND LET'S SEE.

>> YEP.

>> RIGHT -- >> HAD TO PUSH RIGHT THERE.

COULD HAVE CALM CALLED A FACE MASK AS WELL.

>> I SEE THE FACE MASK DIDN'T REALLY SEE THE CONTACT HAPPEN AT THE END OF THE FIELD.

KIND OF CARRIED OVER.

BAD BREAK FOR MILTON AND THE DEFENSE.

>> HORN.

LONG THROW TO THE EDGE.

COMPLETE, NICE OPEN FIELD TACKLE.

OLEN POLY.

>> GREAT JOB.

THAT'S A LOT OF SPACE FOR TALENTED WORK.

LONG PASS OUT HERE.

LITTLE CHECK DOWN BY SAM HORN.

LOOK AT THIS TACKLE OUT IN OPEN FIELD BY PAULEY.

>> SECOND DOWN AND FIVE.

THEY GO TO TRAVIS HUNTER.

HE MAKES A MOVE.

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD.

AND HUNTER ALL THE WAY DOWN DEEP IN MILTON TERRITORY.

TRAVIS HUNTER FINALLY GETTING A CHANCE TO BE UNLEASH IN THE OPEN FIELD.

>> SO DANGEROUS.

GREAT ROUTE RUN ER.

GREAT HANDS.

AGGRESSIVE.

AFTER THIS CATCH.

>> FIRST AND GOAL FROM THE TEN.

COMPLETE TO SPENCER ANDERSON AND TOUCHDOWN COLLINS HILL.

>> NICE BLOCKING OUT THERE.

-- WORKING THE WHOLE FIELD IS SAM HORN AND HE HAS THE TALENT TO DO SO.

QUICK SCREEN.

GET THE BALL OUT.

ANDERSON ON THE EDGE AND RIGHT THERE YOU CAN SEE CAM PEDRO SECURING THE BLOCK.

A HIGH-POWERED TALENTED OFFENSE.

YOU CAN SEE THE EAGLES TRYING TO SHORTEN THIS GAME.

>> ON FOR P.A.T., HORTON THE HOLDER, LUKE THOMAS THE SNAPPER.

7-0, COLLINS HILL.

77-YARD DRIVE, COVERED IN 6 PLAYS AND JUST OVER 2:00 MINUTES.

10-YARD TOUCHDOWN PASS FROM HORN TO ANDERSON AND GREAT BLOCK BY PEDRO ON THE EDGE TO SPRING HIM LOOSE.

>> LAST TIME ON THAT -- GOOD BLOCKING.

>> YOU CAN SEE WHY MILTON HAS EMPLOYED THE STRATEGY OF TRYING TO PLAY THE TIME OF POSSESSION GAME BECAUSE IT DOES NOT TAKE COLLINS HILL A LOT OF TIME TO SCORE.

>> THAT'S AN EXTENSION OF THEIR RUN GAME.

YOU LOOK AT THOSE QUICK PASSES.

ESPECIALLY ANDERSON, RYAN, THOSE ARE THEIR RUNNING BACKS, THEY LIKE TO GIVE THEM THE BALL OUT IN SPACE AND LET THEM GO TO WORK.

>> NOW COLLINS HILL PLAYING WITH THE LEAD.

MILTON PLAYING FROM BEHIND.

DO THEY DEVIATE FROM THEIR STRATEGY?

ADAM CLACK SAID WE WILL NOT DO THAT.

WE'RE GOING TO STICK TO THE GAME PLAN BUT NOW THEY'RE A TOUCHDOWN DOWN, JUST UNDER 5:00 MINUTES TO PLAY IN THE SECOND QUARTER.

>> PLENTY OF TIME IN THIS HALF.

TWO TIME-OUTS.

CONTINUE TO DO WHAT YOU DID IN THE FIRST DRIVE >> STEPPED IN FRONT OF THE FAIR CATCH, STARTED TO RUN WITH IT WHICH YOU CANNOT DO.

>> NUMBER SIX, WAVING THE FAIR CATCH.

THEY HAD OTHER IDEAS ABOUT THE PLAY.

>> YEAH, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT SEE WHERE THEY END UP SPOTTING THIS BALL.

I THINK THE FAIR CATCH SIGNAL ZBICHB AROUND THE GIVEN AROUND THE 23.

22 PLAYS.

92 YARDS NO PLAYS FOR MILTON ON OFFENSE.

THEY SPOT IT FIRST AND TEN.

>> HEAVY FORMATION.

TWO TIGHTENDS.

DIRECT SNAP TO JORDAN MCDONALD.

>> PLUS TEN.

PLUS 20.

CLOSE TO 30 YARDS ON THE GAIN FOR JORDAN MCDONALD.

>> CORRECT SNAP, WILD .

>> DIRECT SNAP, WILD .

>> 29-YARD PICK UP FOR JORDAN MCDONALD WHO NOW HAS 69 YARDS RUSHING ON 9 CARRIES IN THE FIRST HALF.

FARRELL HELD THE BALL OUT.

DON'T KNOW IF MCDONALD WENT THE WRONG WAY, APPEARED TO BE THAT.

ONE YARD GAIN FARRELL.

>> DEFINITELY MISCOMMUNICATION THERE.

FARRELL DOING WHAT HE CAN WITH THE BUSTED PLAY.

HOLDING THE BALL OUT, MCDONALD WITH THE SMARTS, NO TIME TO WASTE TIME AGAINST AGGRESSIVE COLLINS HILL DEFENSE.

JUST GET YARDAGE.

>> FARRELL SPREAD OUT WITH THREE RECEIVERS BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN, MCDONALD WILL TAKE THE DIRECT SNAP, TWO BIG TIGHTENDS, NICK OL AS GOING TO MICHIGAN AND ELLOITT MIRE 99 AND MCDONALD RUNNING HARD, GETS STOPPED AT THE 40.

>> GOOD BATTLE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN.

LETTING MCDONALD, I SEE YOU, MR. HUNTER, GETTING INTO THE ACTION THERE.

BIG TIME CATCH.

BIG TIME TOUCHDOWN.

NOW SHOWING WHY HE'S THE NATION'S NUMBER ONE CORNER BACK AS WELL.

>> 3rd DOWN AND FOUR.

MILTON 123 OF THEIR 133 OF OFFENSE IN THIS GAME HAS GONE ON THE GROUND.

POWER FORMATION AGAIN.

BRYCE THORNTON WITH THE SNAP.

ASANI REDWOOD TAKES HIM DOWN BY THE LEGS.

HAVEN'T SEEN LT OVERTON IN THAT SERIES, MAYBE JUST SOMETHING TO CONSIDER, DON'T GET TOO COMFORTABLE WE HAVE THE BIG FELLA TO PUT BACK THERE.

HAVEN'T DONE THAT SINCE THE OWNING SERIES.

>> GETTING BACK TO BASIC OFFENSE WITH BIG BODIES COMING IN THERE ON FOURTH AND ONE, YOU IMAGINE IT WILL BE A DIRECT SNAP BACK TO JORDAN MCDONALD.

>> 4th DOWN AND ONE.

>> IN THE BACK FIELD WITH ELLOITT MEYER.

>> MCDONALD NOT GOING TO GET THERE, SECOND TIME THEY STOPPED THEM ON 4th DOWN.

>> BEAUTIFUL JOB, COMING UP, CREATING A POW RIGHT THERE, COMES AROUND TO BLOCK HIM, CLUTTERING THE HOLE AND ALLOW ASANI REDWOOD TO MAKE THE TACKLE.

YOU SEE 16 WAITS FOR PAU AND WAITS FOR OTHER DEFENDER TO CLEAN UP, AND STOP ON FOURTH AND ONE.

>> THIS HAS BECOME A ATTITUDE GAME, WE'RE MORE PHYSICAL, WE'RE BIGGER AND TOUGHER THAN YOU, THAT'S THE WAY THIS GAME IS DEVELOPING.

REALLY KIND OF FUNNY IN 2021 WITH ALL OF THE FINESSE FOOTBALL THAT WE HAVE DE-EVOLVED BACK TO THIS.

BUT I LOVE IT.

FIRST AND TEN, HORN.

THROWING THE PASS TO SPENCER, BALL IS OUT.

STILL ROLLING.

STILL ALIVE.

AND HORN COVERS IT AT THE 21.

GOT CRAZY THERE FOR A MOMENT.

SAM HORN BAILS THEM OUT.

>> NEED ABOUT 12 CAMERAS TO WALK YOU THROUGH THIS PLAY RIGHT HERE.

BUT DYLAN MILLER GREAT JOB, KNOCKING IT OUT OF THE HANDS OF SPENCER ANDERSON AND ALL THE FUN STARTS HAPPENING, LT OVERTON TRIED TO SCOOP IT UP, MISSED IT, THINKING TOUCHDOWN AND HUSTLING TO RECOVER IS SAM HORN.

>> 2nd DOWN AND 26.

75 SECONDS LEFT IN THE HALF.

COLLINS HILL DOES HAVE ALL THREE TIME-OUTS REMAINING.

HEAVY RUSH.

DUMPED OFF TO SPENCER.

ACROSS THE 40.

AND GETS THE 1st DOWN.

GOT ALL 26 OF IT BACK PLUS ONE.

>> SPENCER ANDERSON RUNNING WITH THAT CONVICTION, LIKE I MADE A MISTAKE ON THE LAST PLAY, BUT I'LL SHOW YOU ON THIS SCREEN.

NICE JOB SUCKERING THE D-LINE UP AND IT BECOMES ABOUT SPENCER ANDERSON RUMBLING THROUGH THE DEFENSE.

NO MORE BEING ALLUSIVE, RIGHT THERE, SHOWING YOU THE POWER.

>> PASS GOES TO NASH.

HE GOT CLOBBERED.

BRYCE THORNTON WAS THERE.

DYLAN MILLER.

TIMEOUT CALLED 47 SECONDS LEFT IN THE HALF.

>> BIG TIME FOOTBALL IQ, SOMEONE'S GOING TO LOVE HIM NEXT YEAR.

EXCUSE ME, HE'S A JUNIOR.

>> RIGHT.

>> WHEN HE GETS TO COLLEGE, AS HE FILLS OUT, HE JUST HAS THOSE INSTINCTS THAT YOU JUST WANT BACK IN YOUR SECONDARY.

>> MIGHT COME FROM HIS DADDY, HIS DADDY WAS A STAR RUNNING BACK AT LAGRANGE, WENT TO THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA AS A RUNNING BACK, THEY CONVERTED HIM TO CORNER BACK WHERE HE WENT ON TO PLAY IN THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE AS A CORNER BACK PROFESSIONALLY.

AND OF COURSE HIS BROTHER BRUCE IS THE NUMBER SIX RATED POINT GUARD IN THE NATION AND COMMITTED TO OHIO STATE IN BASKETBALL.

>> IF YOU'RE MILTON YOU HAVE TO WATCH OUT FOR TRAVIS HUNTER GOING DEEP.

COLLINS HILL TRYING TO CREATE A ONE-ON-ONE SITUATION.

YOU CAN BEST BELIEVE SAM HORN GOING TO TRY TO FIND TRAVIS HUNTER DOWN THE FIELD AND TAKE HIS CHANCES WITH THE TOP TALENT IN THE COUNTRY.

>> 2nd DOWN AND EIGHT, HORN COMES NEAR SIDE.

OFF THE HANDS OF NASH.

NASH IS THE GUY THEY MOVED TO THE SLOT WAS A RUNNING BACK LAST YEAR, PLAYING HIM OUT OF THE SLOT THIS YEAR.

3rd DOWN AND EIGHT.

SOPHOMORE GOING TO HAVE A BIG COUPLE YEARS COMING UP IN THIS EAGLES PROGRAM.

>> YOU HAVE TWO TIME-OUTS, YOU CAN WORK THE WHOLE FIELD.

IF YOU'RE SAM HORN, YOU CAN PULL IT DOWN, TRY TO GET THIS 1st DOWN WITH YOUR FEET.

BUT IF YOU'RE MILTON FIND TRAVIS HUNTER IN THIS SITUATION.

ROLL THE COVERAGE TO HIM.

WATCH HIM TRY TO GO DEEP.

>> HE SPLIT OUT WIDE, TOP OF THE SCREEN, HORN GOING THAT WAY, NEARLY INTERCEPTED -- AND IT WAS!

WHAT A PICK BY BRYCE THORNTON.

WOW.

WAYNE, YOU WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT THE KIDS ATHLETICISM, SAY NO MORE.

HIS PLAY SPEAKS FOR ITSELF.

>> A COACH'S DREAM, ROLL OUT, TRYING TO GET -- LOOK AT THE VISION.

LOOK AT THE EYES.

WATCHING THE QUARTERBACK.

AND THEN SHOWING YOU THOSE WIDE RECEIVER SOFT HANDS FOR THAT PICK RIGHT THERE BY BRYCE THORNTON.

THAT'S PART OF THAT FOOTBALL IQ.

YOU GOT TO UNDERSTAND CERTAIN SITUATIONS WHERE TEAMS WANT TO GO AND YOU FELT LIKE SAM HORN WAS GOING TO TRY TO GET THE BALL TO TRAVIS HUNTER AND SO DID BRYCE THORNTON.

>> SO MILTON TAKES OVER, FIRST AND TEN, THEY HAVE TWO TIMEOUTS IT REMAINING, STICK WITH THE RUN HERE, AND DEVIN FARRELL STEPS OUT-OF-BOUNDS, TAKES THE LOSS BACK AT THE 42.

IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE, DO THEY STICK WITH THIS OR DO YOU SCRAP?

LET'S GO BACK AND BE A LITTLE BIT MORE WIDE OPEN.

ONLY HAVE 34 SECONDS LEFT AND TWO TIME-OUTS.

DO THEY GO TO THE AIR HERE?

AND THEY CAN THROW THE BALL, THEY ABSOLUTELY CAN, WE'VE SEEN THEM DO IT.

>> THEY HAVE A LOT OF TALENT IN THE WIDE RECEIVER CORE.

THEY JUST DON'T REALLY THROW THE BALL AS MUCH AS WITH JORDAN MCDONALD AND THE ABILITY OF FARRELL RUNNING THE BALL.

>> TIMEOUT, COLLINS HILL.

>> BUT IN HIS FIRST -- >> -- FIRST TIMEOUT OF THE HALF.

>> IF YOU'RE COACH, YOU MIGHT JUST WANT TO GET OUT OF THIS HALF.

YOU'RE 7-0 NFL A YOU'RE 7-0.

IN A CERTAIN WAY YOU'RE DOWN ON THE SCOREBOARD, YOU KEPT THE GAME TIGHT, GO IN, LET EVERYONE CATCH THEIR BREATH AND TO ME, GET BACK TO WHAT YOU WERE DOING IN THAT EARLY FIRST QUARTER.

>> I'LL BE THE DEVIL'S ADVOCATE THEN AND I'LL SAY IT'S THE 7A GONNA SQUEEZE EVERY SECOND OUT OF THIS GAME.

THERE'S 34 SECONDS LEFT.

I'M GOING TO SPEND THE NEXT 34 SECONDS TRYING TO SCORE THE BALL.

>> WELL, AS WE ALLUDED TO, YOU DO HAVE THOSE RECEIVERS DOWN THE FIELD, BORTLINGS, GATLING THEY COME UP WITH BIG PLAYS, THEY'RE 6'2",, 6'1", IF YOU TRY SOMETHING DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE DEEP OUT ON THE EDGE AND YOU HAVE TO KEEP YOUR EYE ON TRAVIS HUNTER IN THESE SITUATIONS.

DON'T WANT HIM TO GET HIS HAND ON ONE OF THESE BALLS AND TAKE IT BACK.

>> FARRELL ONLY 3 OF 3 PASSING FOR 10 YARDS IN THE FIRST HALF.

OFF GOES JORDAN MCDONALD.

LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE CONTENT TO DO WHAT YOU SAID, WAYNE.

COLLINS HILL WITH ONE TIMEOUT REMAINING.

THEY USED IT THERE MIGHT FORCE THEM INTO PUNT SITUATION.

NOT HAVING ANOTHER ONE LIMITS THEIR OPTIONS SO IT LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GOING TO GO TO THE HALF JUST LIKE THIS.

>> MILTON MIGHT TRY SOMETHING DEEP DOWN THE FIELD, LINING UP AS THOUGH THEY'RE GOING TO TRY MAYBE A HAIL MARY.

>> GET THE SNAP OFF IN TIME, NO, FARRELL GOING TO RUN IT.

THAT'S GOING TO BE THE END OF THE HALF.

DION CRAWFORD TAKING THE TACKLE.

HE'S FIRED UP.

THAT'S HALFTIME IN THE 7A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

COLLINS HILL WITH A 7-0 LEAD ON MILTON AND THE COLLINS HILL EAGLES WILL BE RECEIVING THE SECOND-HALF KICK OFF.

>> WE EXPECTED THIS COLLINS HILL DEFENSE TO SHOW UP AND HOLD MILTON BUT SO FAR MILTON ONLY GIVING UP SEVEN POINTS IN THIS GAME.

SOME OF THAT IS THE FUNCTION OF THAT FIRST QUARTER WHERE THEIR OFFENSE TOOK SO MUCH TIME OFF THE CLOCK.

BUT WE ARE -- THIS IS A BATTLE.

SEEMS LIKE THE SCORE IS MORE THAN 7-0.

>> ASSOCIATION ABSOLUTELY.

OH, .

>> OH, ABSOLUTELY.

IT CERTAINLY DOES.

7-0 LEAD, COLLINS HILL TRYING TO WIN THE FIRST STATE CHAMPIONSHIP IN FOOTBALL PROGRAM HISTORY, THEY WON A BUNCH OF STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS IN ALL THE OTHER SPORTS, THEY'VE NEVER WON ONE IN FOOTBALL AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEY'RE TRYING TO DO RIGHT NOW IN DOWNTOWN ATLANTA.

OUR COACH'S INTERVIEW PRESENTED BY DBHDD.

BRIAN JONES PRINCIPAL OF MILTON HANGING OUT WITH US HERE UNDER THE TENT BECAUSE OF COURSE THE RAIN IS COMING AND I FORGOT MY HAT.

THAT'S HOW THIS GOES.

>> I DON'T KNOW IF YOU KNOW BUT THERE'S A BEAUTIFUL STORY OUT OF MILTON HIGH SCHOOL THIS WEEK ABOUT THE FRESHMAN KID THAT WAS BULLIED WE HAVE SHOWN THE PICTURE ALL NIGHT.

JORDAN MCDONALD AND MO CLIFFORD REALLY STEPPED UP AND STEPPED INTO KINDNESS AND AUTHENTICITY AND WALKED THAT YOUNG FRESHMAN TO HIS CLASSES, WASN'T THAT BEAUTIFUL?

>> YEAH, VERY, VERY COOL.

NOW, IF YOU'RE THAT FRESHMAN NOTHING LIKE HAVING THOSE TWO GUYS AS YOUR BLOCKERS, GOING TO CLASS, RUNNING LEAD FOR YOU WHEN IT COMES TO 34 WAN TO THIRD PERIOD AND THOSE ARE MY LEAD BLOCKERS, FANTASTIC STUFF FROM THEM.

>> I KNOW THEY GOT A GOOD FOOT AND HALF ON HIM TOO.

>> NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.

>> I LOVE IT.

SUCH A GREAT STORY.

JOHN, THANKS SO MUCH.

WE GOT MORE COMING UP RIGHT HERE ON THE HALFTIME SHOW.

DON'T GO ANYWHERE.

WE GOT MORE FOOTBALL COMING UP.

STICK WITH US RIGHT HERE ON GPB.

>>> WELCOME BACK TO OUR GPB HALFTIME SHOW PRESENTED BY REGENTS GET BACK IN THE GAME WITH REGENTS BANK I'M NIKI PALMER LIVE FROM STUDIO J FROM MID TOWN.

OUR FRIEND NELLY IS AT CENTER PARK STADIUM.

JOHN, WE GOT TO TALK ABOUT THIS MATCH UP.

FIRST OF ALL, I DON'T THINK ANYONE EXPECTED IT WAS ONLY GOING TO BE 7-0 GOING INTO THE HALF.

COLLINS HILL LEADING RIGHT NOW.

NOW, COLLINS HILL IS KNOWN FOR THEIR STAR POWER ON OFFENSE, HOWEVER, THEIR DEFENSE HAS SHUT DOWN MILTON'S OFFENSE ALREADY.

>> WELL, AND THE PHILOSOPHY OF ADAM CLACK IN THAT FIRST QUARTER TO TRY TO ABSOLUTELY TURN IT INTO RUNNING THE CLOCK, KEEP THE BALL AWAY FROM COLLINS HILL ARRANGES -- AND HE DID THAT MOST OF THE FIRST QUARTER AND BRINGING OUT LT OVERTON AT RUNNING BACK.

THIS IS ALL HAND'S ON DECK.

YOU KNOW, MATT STUART AND I HAD SEEN LT IN HIS UNDER CLASSMAN DAYS AS RATHER TALL FRESHMAN RUNNING BACK, TO SEE HIM HERE TONIGHT CLEARING THE PATH FOR JORDAN MCDONALD OBVIOUSLY A GREAT IDEA TO MAKE SURE THE CLOCK IS AS SMALL AS POSSIBLE FOR COLLINS HILL.

>> YOU MENTIONED JORDAN MCDONALD, HOW CAN MILTON GET THEIR OFFENSE ROLLING ON ALL CYLINDERS?

>> WELL, I THINK IT'S GETTING THEM TO THE EDGE.

BUT OF COURSE WITH THE SPEED THAT COLLINS HILL HAS ON DEFENSE, TRYING TO GET YOUR GUYS OUT TO THE EDGE, CONTAINED, TO GET JORDAN UP AND RUNNING, I THINK THAT WILL BE KEY IN THE SECOND 24 MINUTES BECAUSE LAST TIME I CHECKED IF YOU GET TO THE POINT OF ATTACK SOONER THAN THE OTHER GUY YOU'RE AT A ZINCHT DISTINCT ADVANTAGE.

HOW IS THAT FOR PHILOSOPHY 101.

>> YOU CAN DO IT ALL.

YOU GOT ALL THE SMARTS AND WITS ABOUT YOU.

COLLINS HILL WILL RECEIVE THE BALL IN THE SECOND HALF WHAT DO THEY HAVE TO DO TO TAKE IT AWAY?

>> DO IT LICKETY SPLIT LIKE BEFORE.

WE SEEN THE QUICK-STRIKE OFFENSE WHEN THEY PUT THE SEVEN ON THE BOARD.

SO ONCE AGAIN, THEY JUST DO THEIR THING.

I KNOW IT SOUNDS INCREDIBLY SIMPLISTIC BUT WE'VE SEEN THEM THIS SEASON HERE IN GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL TO MAKE SURE THEY GET THINGS DONE, AND BUT IT'S THE ATHLETES ON THE EDGE GETTING IT DONE THE WAY THEY'VE DONE IT.

>> JOHN NELSON YOU KNOW IT ALL, MY FRIEND.

HOW'S THE WEATHER DOWN THERE, IS STILL RAINING?

>> YEAH, IT IS.

AND I FORGOT MY HAT SO LET ME GET THIS DONE BEFORE WE GO.

SO, COUPLE SHOUT OUTS BEFORE WE LEAVE SINCE THIS IS THE LAST HALFTIME.

COUPLE GUYS RETIRING AFTER 40 YEARS, STEVE CARTER, GREAT WRITER AT GPB.

JOHN COON PLAY-BY-PLAY VOICE FOR THE INDIANS RETIRING AFTER 40 YEARS IN THE BUSINESS.

>>> START OF THE THIRD QUARTER COLLINS HILL LEADING MILTON 7-0 HERE IN THE 7A CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

COACH'S INTERVIEW NOW.

>> THANKS, WE'RE JOINED BY ADAM CLACK, MILTON HEAD COACH, YOU TOLD US YOUR GOAL WAS TO BE IN STRIKING DISTANCE TOWARDS THE END OF THE THIRD QUARTER, HALFTIME, YOU'RE AT THAT SPOT WHAT'S YOUR ASSESSMENT OF THE FIRST TWO QUARTERS?

>> YEAH, I MEAN, IT'S TWO GREAT TEAMS GOING AT IT, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF TREMENDOUS EFFORT ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL, WE FEEL LIKE WE'RE RIGHT THERE.

WE'RE SO CLOSE IN EXECUTING AND BREAKING WHAT WE WANT TO BREAK.

WE JUST GOT TO ELIMINATE THE UNFORCED ERRORS, HOLDING PENALTY THAT'S ARE BRINGING BACK BIG PLAYS AND KILLING DRIVES, GOT TO EXECUTE ON FOURTH AND ONE, JUST PROUD OF THE GUYS AND CAN'T WAIT FOR ANOTHER HALF BALL.

>> YOUR DEFENSE TAKING ON TALENTED OFFENSE LEFT YOU JUST SEVEN POINTS HOW DO YOU THEY CONTINUE THAT.

>> KEEP PRESSURING THE QUARTERBACK, TACKLING WELL IN OPEN FIELD AND GET ON IT.

>> THANK FOR YOUR TIME COACH.

BEST OF LUCK IN THE SECOND HALF.

ALL RIGHT, SECOND HALF OF THE 7A FINAL, LET'S DO IT.

>> YOU CAN SEE IT IS STILL RAIN -- RAINING AND THE WIND REALLY BLOWING THE AMERICAN FLAG, YOU CAN SEE HOW IT IS BLOWING, IMPACTING THE PASSING GAME AS WELL.

>> YEAH LOOKING AT THE FIRST HALF, MILTON ON OFFENSE, GOT TO PLAY CLEAN FOOTBALL, IF YOU ARE GOING TO TRY TO RUN THE BALL, TAKE THE AIR OUT OF IT, YOU CAN'T BEAT YOURSELF BEHIND THE STICKS AND WITH THE WEATHER, CAN'T DO MUCH PASSING THE BALL, SO THEY'LL HAVE TO PLAY CLEAN FOOTBALL IN THE SECOND HALF.

>> IF COLLINS HILL COMES OUT AND SCORES RIGHT AFTER GETTING THIS KICK OFF, GOES DOWN AND SCORES, TAKE A TWO-TOUCHDOWN LEAD CAN MILTON STICK TO THEIR GAME PLAN?

>> THEY HAVE THE TALENT IN THE RECEIVING CORE, MAY HAVE TO GET IT DOWN TO JACK NICK OL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD BUT WILL HAVE TO LOOSEN THE COLLINS HILL DEFENSE WHICH KEEPS INCHING CLOSER TRYING TO JORDAN MCDONALD.

>> LET'S LOOK AT THE FIRST HALF HIGHLIGHTS, FROM THE OFFENSIVE STANDPOINT WAS ONE, THE TEN YARD TOUCHDOWN PASS TO ANDERSON.

>> GET THE BALL ON THE EDGE, TO YOUR TALENTED WIDE RECEIVER RUNNING BACK FOR THE TOUCHDOWN.

ONLY SCORE OF THE FIRST HALF.

>> BRYCE THORNTON CAME UP WITH A HUGE, SPECTACULAR INTERCEPTION TO THWART ANOTHER EAGLES DRIVE.

>> BIG TIME DEFENSIVE PLAY FROM MILTON IN THAT FIRST HALF.

WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE STAT, 129 RUSH YARDS BUT NO POINTS ON THE BOARD FOR MILTON AND ON THE OTHER SIDE, COLLINS HILL, THEY DON'T REALLY TRY TO RUN THE BALL AS YOU CAN SEE.

BUT THEY'RE DOING A GOOD JOB WITH THE SHORT PASSING GAME.

>> TIME OF POSSESSION, THREE TIMES ALMOST AS MANY MINUTES AND SECONDS OF POSSESSION FOR MILTON AS COLLINS HILL.

AND AGAIN, ADAM CLACK WHEN WE TALKED TO HIM ON THURSDAY, HE TOLD US THIS IS WHAT THEY PLANNED ON DOING BUT RIGHT NOW THEY'RE DOWN 7-0.

IF THEY FALL ANY FURTHER BEHIND, DO THEY BLINK?

DO THEY CRACK IN THAT GAME PLAN?

>> HE HAD A LOT OF CONFIDENCE THAT HIS TEAM WAS NOT GOING TO PANIC.

THEY WERE GOING TO BE ABLE TO HANDLE THESE MOMENTS.

THEY'VE BEEN DOWN IN BIG GAMES THROUGHOUT THE SEASON.

SO HE HAS A LOT OF CONFIDENCE AND SO FAR SO GOOD.

I KNOW THEY ARE DOWN 7-0 AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY'RE NOT DOING WHAT THEY WANTED, BUT THEY WANT THIS GAME TO GET INTO THE FOURTH QUARTER AND TRY TO MAKE A COUPLE PLAYS, COME UP WITH A PICK, OR AN INTERCEPTION, SET UP THE OFFENSE WITH THE SHORT FIELD SEE THE SPECTACULAR TRAVIS HUNTER, NUMBER ONE PROSPECT IN THE NATION.

FOUR CATCHES FOR 48 YARDS IN THE FIRST HALF.

HE IS THE LEADING RECEIVER IN THIS GAME.

THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GO DEEP TO HIM.

EVERYTHING HAS BEEN UNDERNEATH TRAVIS HUNTER SO FAR IN THIS GAME.

SECOND HALF KICK OFF IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY BUCKLE UP GEORGIA.

BUCKLE UP GEORGIA, SEATBELTS SAVE LIVES.

SO MILTON KICKING.

COLLINS HILL.

MOTA HAS IT TEED UP AND READY TO GO.

AND THE THIRD QUARTER IS UNDERWAY.

TAKEN -- NOT TAKEN -- KICKED OVER THE HEAD OF THE RETURN MAN.

DEEP IN THE END ZONE.

BALL'S GOING TO COME OUT TO THE 20 YARD LINE >> AS YOU MENTIONED, THE WIND, HOW MUCH DID THE WIND PLAY IN THAT KIND OF SITUATION.

WE SAW IT BLOWING REAL HEAVY.

WE SAW THIS COLLINS HILL OFFENSE STICK WITH THE SHORT PASSING GAME.

REALLY DIDN'T TEST THE EARNHARDT JR.

DEEP.

REALLY DIDN'T TEST THE SECONDARY DEEP, MILTON UP FRONT THE DEFENSIVE LINE NEED TO SEE MORE PRESSURE AND CONTINUE TO HAVE OUTSTANDING TACKLING OUT ON THE EDGE.

>> SO, SAM HORN IN THERE.

YOU SAW HIS NUMBERS.

FIRST SNAM OF THE FIRST SNAP OF THE THIRD QUARTER.

HORN, CAUGHT BY TRAVIS HUNTER.

HE MADE A MOVE.

WATCH OUT.

THERE'S THREE GUYS BACK THERE.

HE'S ALL THE WAY DOWN INSIDE COLLINS HILL BIG PLAY INSIDE MILTON TERRITORY.

>> TRYING TO FORCE THE ONE-ON-ONE.

GET HIM ISOLATED ON THE EDGE.

TRAVIS HUNTER.

NICE JOB, CREATING SPACE, GETTING BEHIND THE CORNER.

AND THEN WE ALREADY KNOW WHAT KIND OF ASSET HE IS IN THE OPEN FIELD, MAKING PEOPLE MISS IS HIS SPECIALTY.

>> 60-YARD PASS PLAY, SAM HORN, RIGHT UP THE MIDDLE AND SLIDING DOWN.

AND COLLINS HILL IN BUSINESS TO START THIS SECOND HALF.

>> THIS OFFENSE IS ALL ABOUT THE BIG PLAY, SAM HORN, THAT GUY, COOL COLLECTED.

THAT'S THAT ASPECT ABOUT HIS GAME THAT I THINK WILL SURPRISE A LOT OF PEOPLE, EVEN AS HE MOVES ON TO MISSOURI, HIS ABILITY REALLY TO RUN THE BALL.

HE HAS GOOD SPEED AT THE QUARTERBACK POSITION.

>> FIRST AND TEN FROM THE 11 YARD LINE.

TWO PLAYS TO GET DOWN THERE FROM THE 20.

PITCH GOES TO TRAVIS HUNTER.

AND HUNTER WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TURN THE EDGE RIGHT THERE.

OWEN MAKES THE TACKLE.

>> NICE PLAY DESIGN.

GETTING THE BALL TO HUNTER ONCE AGAIN.

LINING HIM UP IN THE BACK FIELD.

LITTLE OPTION.

HE SEEMS TO BE A LITTLE GIMPY AS HE GETS UP.

A LITTLE BIT BOUNCE.

WALKING IT OFF.

HE'S NOT GOING TO MISS THIS.

HE'S A TEAM GUY.

AS MUCH AS HE'S A BIG SUPERSTAR HE'S A TEAM ORIENTED GUY.

REALLY WANTS THIS CHAMPIONSHIP FOR HIS SCHOOL.

>> SECOND DOWN AND FIVE.

BALL AT THE 6 YARD LINE.

>> YOU SEE HIM GIVING SAM HORN A PAT, LETTING HIM KNOW, BRING ME THE BALL OVER HERE.

MIS DIRECTION ON THE PASS.

YOU CAN SEE HIM TAPPING HIS HIP.

HE REALIZED HE HAD THAT ONE-ON-ONE COVERAGE.

>> BRYCE THORNTON ON THE COVERAGE.

GOING TO BE 3rd DOWN AND FIVE.

>> HORN THROWING CORNER ROUTE ON A RUN, LITTLE POST ROUTE, AND MISCOMMUNICATION.

IN THAT SAME SITUATION EXPECT THEM TO DIAL IT UP AGAIN.

TAKING A LONG TIME GETTING THIS PLAY IN.

THIS OFFENSE THAT LIKES TO GO QUICK AND CATCH YOU BY SURPRISE.

>> SWITCH THE COVERAGE, PUT THORNTON ON TRAVIS HUNTER.

ACTUALLY THEY WENT THE OTHER WAY WITH IT.

HORN SCRAMBLING NOW.

FLAG IS OUT.

HE'S GOING TO RUN TO THE END ZONE AND SCORE.

LET'S CHECK THE PENALTY FLAG.

SIX YARD TOUCHDOWN RUN BY SAM HORN.

IF IT STANDS.

>> YOU CAN IMAGINE IN THAT POSITION OF THE FIELD, LITTLE ROLL OUT, MIGHT BE A HOLDING.

NOT SURE WHAT HE WOULD HAVE CALMED.

TOUCHDOWN.

>> THEY'RE GOING TO WAVE IT OFF, SIX YARD TOUCHDOWN RUN FOR SAM HORN AND NOW IT'S 13-0.

WE'RE GOING TO GET TO TEST OUT WHAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT A FEW MINUTES AGO AT HALFTIME, IF COLLINS HILL TAKES A TWO-SCORE LEAD DOES MILTON BLINK AND BREAK WITH THIS STRATEGY THAT THEY'VE USED IN THE FIRST 24 MINUTES OF THE GAME.

>> NICE JOB OF HORN PRESSURING SPACE ON THE ROLL OUT.

NOWHERE TO GO WITH THE BALL.

AND SHOWING YOU THAT ATHLETICISM THAT HIS COACH TALKS ABOUT.

HE IS MORE THAN A POCKET PASSER.

HE CAN MOVE AROUND.

>> KICK IT UP AND IT IS GOOD.

HE GOT IT INSIDE THAT UPRIGHT.

AND IT'S 14-0.

>> ROLL OUT PRESSURE UP THE FIELD, BY LT OVERTON.

NOWHERE TO GO WITH THE BALL.

SCRAMBLING, NICE JOB BY LEFT TACKLE JAYLEN GEORGE, ESCORTING HIM TO THE END ZONE.

YOU CAN SEE.

GETTING OUT IN FRONT OF HIS QUARTERBACK.

NO ONE TO BLOCK.

WALK IN FOR SAM HORN.

SCRAMBLE.

>> THAT'S THE THING THAT WE'VE SEEN FROM SAM, YOU SEE, SHOWING SOME EMOTION AGAIN THERE.

REALLY FIRED UP AS HE COMES OVER TO THE TENT.

THAT'S SOMETHING WE'VE SEEN AS HIS SENIOR YEAR HAS GONE ON THAT WE'VE NOT NECESSARILY SEEN FROM HIM IN THE PAST.

IS HIS ALLUSIVENESS AND HIS ABILITY TO RUN.

AND HE'S A REALLY GOOD ATHLETE.

HE'S A PRO-STYLE QUARTERBACK.

HE'S A REALLY GOOD ATHLETE AND CAN RUN THE BALL.

>> AS YOU CAN SEE, I LOVE THE MOBILE QUARTERBACK, I'M NOT A BIG RUNNING QUARTERBACK GUY BUT LOVE A GUY THAT WHEN A PLAY BREAKS DOWN, THEY CAN GET YOU TEN, TWELVE YARDS AS SAM HORN JUST DID.

THORNTON ON THE RETURN AND HE'S STILL ON HIS FEAT.

AND THORNTON OFF TO THE 35 YARD LINE WITH A GREAT SECOND EFFORT.

HE'S HAD A GREAT GAME.

>> WILL DEFINITELY LET YOU KNOW THAT HE CAME HERE TO WIN A GAME.

HE'S GOING TO BRING EVERYTHING THAT YOU WANT AS A PLAYER, AS A LEADER TO HELP HIS TEAM WIN WHETHER THAT'S INTERCEPTING THE BALL, MAKING BIG HITS, TAKING THE CHALLENGE OF TRYING TO COVER TRAVIS HUNTER ONE-ON-ONE OUT ON THE EDGE AND RIGHT THERE TRYING TO GET AS MUCH AS HE CAN ON THAT KICK OFF RETURN.

>> FIRST AND TEN -- BRYCE THORNTON IT R.R.

AARON THORNTON ON THE TACKLE FOR THE EAGLES.

>> ONE THING YOU LIKE ABOUT JORDAN MCDONALD IS THE WAY HE KEEPS HIS FEET MOVING.

YOU SEE THE COLLINS HILL DEFENSE HASN'T ADJUSTED TO TRYING TO TAKE DOWN A BIG BACK.

6'1", 210, PHYSICAL BETWEEN THE TACKLES.

ONE THING WEAVER SEEN, LAST TIME WATCHING HIM, HE HAS A GREAT BURST >> OVER 80 YARDS RUSHING IN THE GAME FOR HIM.

DEVIN FARRELL.

LT OVERTON BLOCKING FOR HIM.

HE'S ABLE TO DIVE FORWARD AND GET COUPLE YARDS AND BRING UP THIRD AND SHORT COMING UP.

AND YOU LIKE TO SEE THIS QUICK PASSING GAME.

DUMP SOMETHING ACROSS THE MIDDLE TO THE TIGHTEND, JACK, NICOLE KEEP THE COLLINS HILL MORE OFF BALANCE, CATCH THEM BEING MORE AGGRESSIVE, IN THEIR MIND THEY'RE TRYING TO STOP THE RUN GAME, GET SOMETHING TO GATLING, BORTLES OR NICOLE.

>> 113 YARDS FOR FARRELL T MCDONALD.

THE FARRELL NUMBER IS ADJUSTED A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO FACTOR IN THE THREE QUARTERBACK SACKS HE'S TAKEN.

THAT'S GOING TO BE VERY CLOSE.

4th DOWN IF THEY DIDN'T GET IT.

FOURTH AND INCHES IN YOUR OWN END.

DO YOU GO FOR IT.

>> LEFT TACKLE HURT HIS ANKLE ON THE LAST PLAY.

RIGHT HERE, GOT FIRST AND TEN UP ON THE BOARD.

SAYING JORDAN MCDONALD WAS ABLE TO GET IT.

>> THEIR LEFT GUARD BEN HARTMAN, 6'5", 280 SENIOR IS DOWN RIGHT NOW.

BEN HARTMAN.

THEY HAVE JACK OF ALL TRADES, TRE HARDY, SEE IF HE MAKES HIS ENTER INTO THE GAME.

>> ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO, ABOUT 60 POUNDS.

YOU LOSE A LOT OF SIZE BUT GET MORE ATHLETICISM.

HE IS IN THERE AT THAT LEFT GUARD POSITION.

>> THEY DID GET THAT 1st DOWN.

FIRST AND TEN FROM THE 46 NOW.

NIKE OLE IN MOTION.

HE'S A GUY THEY GO TO.

NICHOL.

FARRELL.

JAYLEN GEORGE WITH THE SACK AT THE 40 YARD LINE.

FOURTH TIME FARRELL HAS BEEN SACKED IN THIS GAME.

>> NICE READ.

UP THE FIELD.

HARD.

YOU CAN SEE NOT ALLOWING ANY ROOM FOR DEVIN FARRELL TO ZICH THE BALL AND JAYLEN GEORGE RUNNING IT DOWN FROM THE BACK SIDE.

>> SEE THE NUMBER FOR GEORGE THIS SEASON, SENIOR, TWO-WAY STARTER, BEEN OFFERED AS A DEFENSIVE END BY AKRON.

HAND OFF GOES TO MCDONALD.

AND MCDONALD THREE YARDS ON THE PLAY.

DORESETT MAKING THE DORSEY MAKING THE TACKLE FOR MCCOLLUM.

>> MOST EFFECTIVE WHEN THEY LET HIM GO DOWN.

RFO OPTION IS TAKING HIM TOO LONG TO GET THE BALL.

HE'S A BIG BACK.

WANT TO GET HIM GOING DOWNHILL.

QUICK DEFENSE FOR COLLINS HILL.

NOT GOING TO MAKE MUCH MONEY TAKING THAT MUCH TIME TO GET HIM THE BALL.

>> GIGANTIC THIRD AND TWELVE.

FARRELL TO THE AIR.

GOING TO TAKE ANOTHER SACK.

HORTON, THE CORNER, COMING OFF THE EDGE.

FIFTH QUARTERBACK SACK FOR COLLINS HILL.

>> YOU SAY YOU WANT TO WIN A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP, WELL, HOW ABOUT FIND YOURSELF A DEFENSE THAT ONLY GIVES UP 5.8 POINTS A GAME.

NICE JOB NOT BEING FOOLED AT ALL.

STAYING HOME.

AARON ORTON MAKING THE SACK.

ON AN ATHLETIC DEVIN FARRELL THAT'S WHAT YOU EXPECT ON COLLINS HILL DEFENSE, THAT'S HOW YOU ONLY GIVE UP LESS THAN A TOUCHDOWN A SEASON.

>> RUGBY STYLE KICK, HITS IN FRONT OF TRAVIS HUNTER AND IS GOING TO BE DOWNED INSIDE THE 10 YARD LINE.

ONE OF THE RARE MISTAKES WILL YOU SEE TRAVIS HUNTER MAKE RIGHT THERE.

HE PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE COME CUP AND AT LEAST FAIR CAUGHT THAT BALL.

TURNS INTO A 53-YARD PUNT.

>>> A 14-0 LEAD FOR THE COLLINS HILL EAGLES ON THE CUSP OF THEIR FIRST STATE CHAMPIONSHIP IN SCHOOL HISTORY.

WHEN COACH LENNY GREGORY TOOK OVER HE SAID THE PROGRAM WAS AT GROUND ZERO AND FOR COACH LENNY GREGORY NEEDED SENIORS TO STEP UP THAT WAS SAM HORN AND TRAVIS HUNTER AND THEY FOUND A WAY TO INSTILL A CHANGE IN THE CULTURE THAT AFFECTED THE WHOLE CULTURE, JV TEAM HAS GONE UNDEFEATED.

THEY'VE MEANT SO MUCH TO THIS PROGRAM.

HARD TO BELIEVE IT'S THEIR LAST HALF OF FOOTBALL.

>> IT'S BEEN A SPECTACULAR DUO FOR COLLINS HILL AND NOW THEY'RE JUST UNDER 19 MINUTES AWAY FROM THE STATE TITLE.

THEY TAKE OVER, FIRST AND TEN AT THE 7 YARD LINE.

HORN GOING TO RUN IT OUT, NOT SUCCESSFUL DOING THAT.

>> THIS MILTON DEFENSE HAS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE THAT COLLINS HILL DOESN'T HAVE THAT RUN GAME TO END THIS GAME.

UP 14-0, INSIDE YOUR OWN RED ZONE, DOWN INSIDE THE 5, YOU EXPECT THE OFFENSE TO COME OUT AND HAVE TO RUN THE BALL.

THAT'S NOT THEIR PERSONNEL GROUPING.

YOU GOT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE AND GIVE YOUR TEAM THE SHORT FIELD IN THIS SITUATION IF YOU'RE MILTON.

>> SECOND DOWN AND TEN.

SETTING UP A SCREEN.

IT GOES TO TRAVIS HUNTER.

HUNTER PINNED IN AT THE FIVE YARD LINE.

MANN TAKES A BIG HIT AT THE 6.

SAW BRADEN HOLMES THE CORNER COME IN AND HELP OUT ON THE TACKLE, THREW HIM TO THE GROUND.

3rd DOWN.

>> TRYING TO GET IT TO THE BEST PLAYER OUT IN SPACE.

I COULD SEE TRAVIS HUNTER GET UP FIELD, GET TWO OR THREE YARDS AND GET DOWN.

TWO BIG-TIME OF A PLAYER FOR DIFFERENT BODIES TO KEEP COMING IN LAYING HITS ON HIM.

>> 3rd DOWN AND 11.

HORN IN TROUBLE.

GOT AWAY FROM LT AND THROWS IT AWAY.

THERE WAS HUNTER THERE IN THE VICINITY NEAR THE PASS.

NO INTENTIONAL GROUNDING.

BUT LT OVERTON NEARLY GOT A SAFETY.

>> BEAUTIFUL MOVE BY LT OVERTON.

COMING IN SIDE OF JAYLEN GEORGE, OVER THE LEFT TACKLE SPOT.

ALMOST COMING UP WITH THAT SAFETY.

BUT SAM HORN SHOWING THAT ATHLETICISM ABLE TO KEEP HIS FEET, GET OUTSIDE THE POCKET AND THROW THE BALL AWAY.

>> Jon: HORN PUNTING YOU OUT OF THE BACK OF THE END ZONE.

GETS IT OUT OF THERE.

REALLY GETS IT OUT OF THERE, MY GOODNESS.

DID WE SAY HE WAS A D-1 PUNTER TOO.

WHAT CAN'T HE DO.

BACK OF HIS END ZONE, KICKED IT ABOUT 70 YARDS IN THE AIR.

>> SAW THIS IN THE FIRST HALF, LOT OF FRUSTRATION, HE'S BOOMING THE BALL TONIGHT, LOOKING LIKE A TOP-NOTCH PUNTER.

YOU'RE ADAM FREASE YOU HAVE TO GO GET THIS BALL.

YOUR TEAM RIGHT NOW IS DOWN 14-0.

YOUR OFFENSE NEEDS THE SHORT FIELD.

YOU CAN'T LET THAT BALL DROP AND LOSE ANOTHER 10, 12 YARDS.

YOU GOT TO TAKE THE CHANCE TO GET THAT BALL IN THE AIR >> DEVIN FARRELL BRINGS THE OFFENSE BACK OUT.

CAN MILTON GET SOMETHING GOING NOW WITH JUST 18 MINUTES TO PLAY IN THE GAME.

PASS THROWN COMPLETE TO FREASE.

FREASE GET THE 1st DOWN UP TO THE 48 YARD LINE.

THEY ARE CERTAINLY CAPABLE OF DOING THIS IN THIS OFFENSE.

THEY JUST HAVEN'T DONE IT TONIGHT.

>> GETTING OUTSIDE, LITTLE SHORT PASSING GAIN, REALLY WHAT I CALL AN EXTENSION OF YOUR RUN GAME.

JUST GETTING OUTSIDE THAT TRAFFIC.

GETTING IT OUT INTO OPEN FIELD AND PLAYER LIKE ADAM FREASE, KNOWN FOR HIS ROUTE RUNNING RIGHT THERE DOING A GREAT JOB GETTING UP FIELD.

>> FIRST AND TEN FROM THE 48.

NOW FARRELL GOING TO RUN IT.

BEATS A MAN RIGHT THERE AND ENDS UP WITH 7 ON THE PLAY.

DOWN TO THE 45.

>> ROBERTO BRYANT ONCE AGAIN, COMING FROM THE MIDDLE LINEBACKER SPOT.

OF THE BETTER THING S ABOUT HIM, WHEN HE GETS HIS CHANCE AT YOU HE BRINGS YOU DOWN.

THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT FROM THAT BACKER SPOT.

>> SECOND AND THREE.

BALL AT THE 45.

>> FIRST TWO PLAYS KIND OF MIXING IT UP.

GOT THE BALL ON THE EDGE TO FREASE AND THEN CAME BACK WITH THE QUARTERBACK COUNTER.

>> FARRELL GOT TRIPPED UP.

DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPEN THERE'D.

MUST HAVE CLICKED HEELS WITH SOMEBODY.

>> LOOKED LIKE HE TRIPPED ON THE BACK OF JORDAN MCDONALD'S FOOT AS HE FOLLOWED HIM ON THE QUARTERBACK DRAW.

COULD SEE RIGHT HERE.

NO, JUST SLIPPED ON THE CUT.

IT HAS BEEN RAINING ON THIS FIELD.

TEAMS HAVE BEEN PLAYING ALL DAY LONG.

>> THIRD AND THREE.

FOUR DOWN TERRITORY HERE ON THE PLUS SIDE OF THE 50.

FARRELL.

DIDN'T GET THE 1st DOWN.

ANOTHER 4th DOWN COMING UP.

ROBERTO BRYANT, WE'VE CALLED HIS NAME MANY TIMES TONIGHT.

HAVING A BIG NIGHT.

ANOTHER 4th DOWN COMING UP WAYNE.

>> AGAIN BETWEEN FARRELL AND MCDONALD.

RPO.

YOU CAN SEE MONDAY PULLED YOU CAN SEE MCDONALD PULLED UP INSTEAD OF MAKING THE BLOCK, DEVIN FARRELL FRUSTRATED COULDN'T PICK UP THAT DOWN.

NOW FOURTH AND TWO.

THIS IS THE MODE THEY'LL BE IN THE REST OF THE GAME ON THEIR SIDE OF THE FIELD.

GOING WITH THE DIRECT SNAP BACK TO JORDAN MCDONALD.

IT.

THROWS THE POP PASS.

TRY TO HIT SMALLY TIGHTEND AND OVER THREW HIM AND THE BALL GOES OVER ON DOWNS FOR THE THIRD TIME IN THIS GAME, WAYNE, MILTON HAS FAILED TO PICK UP 1st DOWN ON 4th DOWN, TWICE BEFORE WAS ON THE COLLINS HILL DEFENSE.

THIS IS ON THE MILTON OFFENSE.

>> I THINK RIGHT HERE, JORDAN MCDONALD ZBOG IS GOING TO THE WRONG SIDE OF THE FIELD.

ON THE OTHER SIDE, JACK NICHOL RAN THE SAME PAUSE ROUTE THAT YOU SEE RIGHT THERE AND CAME WIDE OPEN ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE SCREEN.

MCDONALD IN THAT SITUATION, FOUR DOWN TERRITORY, THE WAY HE RUNS THE BALL, YOU WOULD IMAGINE YOU COULD HAND HIM THE BALL, LET HIM GET DOWNHILL.

>> COLLINS HILL GOES BACK ON OFFENSE.

SPENCER ANDERSON GOING TO PICK UP THREE.

WAS AT THE FIRST CRACK IN THE FOUNDATION OF THE GAME PLAN.

YOU DEVIATED FROM WHAT US HAVE BEEN DOING, DID NOT RUN MCDONALD IN THE POWER FORMATION, INSTEAD TRIED A TRICK PLAY.

DIDN'T WORK.

>> NICE JOB, AJ CRAWFORD WORKING DOWN THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

HE'S HAD AN OUTSTANDING YEAR FOR THIS MILTON EAGLES DEFENSE.

>> COMPLETE, PEDRO.

1st DOWN.

DOWN TO THE 45 YARD LINE.

MILTON CANNOT AFFORD.

TO LET COLLINS HILL SCORE ANY MORE.

>> STILL GETTING THE BALL OUT ON THE EDGE, GETTING IT RIGHT THERE TO CAM PEDRO.

>> DAD STARTED MARSHALL.

WAS A RUNNING BACK.

GLEN PEDRO RUNNING BACK FOR MARSHALL.

HE'S COMMITTED TO HIS DAD'S ALMA MATER.

GOING UP TOP FOR TRAVIS HUNTER.

AND INCOMPLETE.

I DON'T KNOW IF BRADEN HOLMES GOT A PIECE OF THAT AS IT WAS COMING IN OR NOT.

>> THIS IS A GOAL FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE PLAY.

YOU CAN SEE TRAVIS HUNTER LOOKING BACK AT SAM HORN.

TELLING HIM HE WAS GOING TO RUN THE GO ROUTE.

I THINK THE SUPERSTAR JUST DROPPED THIS ONE.

>> BRADEN -- >> HE JUST DROPPED IT, YOU'RE RIGHT.

>> THE SUPERSTAR JUST DROPED IT FOR TOUCHDOWN.

>> RIGHT BETWEEN THE NOUBS.

DON'T KNOW IF I'VE SEEN HIM DO THAT.

>> RIGHT NOW HIM AND SAM HORN CAN'T CONNECT BUT THEY ARE CHECKING EACH OTHER OUT WHENEVER HE HAS ONE-ON-ONE COVERAGE TO THROW HIM THE BALL.

>> SCREEN FOR SPENCER.

1st DOWN AND MORE.

RUNS INTO HIS OFFENSIVE LINEMEN, 16 YARD PICK UP.

>> NICE JOB BY CENTER ROBBIE WATTS DOWN FIELD.

BEAUTIFUL SCREEN.

PATIENT.

LETTING THE D-LINE COME TO YOU.

SAM HORN.

GIVING HIM A SMALL BALL TO CATCH.

ANDERSON RUN DOWN THE CENTER GREAT PROBLEM TO HAVE, 18 YARDS RUNNING INTO THE CENTER.

>> 6'2", 225 SENIOR ON HIS BACK.

THEY'RE WORKING THE SHOULDER AREA, AROUND THE JOINT.

HOPEFULLY HE'S OKAY.

>> BIG POWERFUL MAN, LIKE HIS BROTHER.

YOU COULD SEE JUST BUILT.

THAT REALLY IS A RIGHT GUARD BODY RIGHT THERE.

I'M JUST LOOKING, THAT'S -- WHEN YOU DRAW UP WHAT YOU WANT YOUR RIGHT-HAND GUARD TO LOOK LIKE, THAT IS WHAT GILL TEO LOOKS LIKE FROM THE BACK.

>> I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, I'M SURE THEY'RE PARENTS ARE GLAD THEY'RE HAVING A GREAT COLLEGE CAREER, WILL CUT DOWN ON THE GROCERY BILL, CONSUME A LOT, I BET YOU, GREAT FOOTBALL PLAYERS.

HORN.

THROWS THE PASS.

COMPLETE.

DROPS.

ANDERSON BACK PEDALING COULDN'T BRING IT IN.

HUNTER SAYS I'M OPEN.

I'M OPEN.

>> LETTING HIM KNOW, HEY, I KNOW I DROPPED A COUPLE HERE, I ADDED A MISS-READ ON ONE BUT DON'T FORGET ME AT THE BOTTOM.

YOU CAN TELL HE'S BUILT.

WAY OUT BY THE NUMBERS.

WHEN HE LOOKS UP FEELS LIKE A ONE-ON-ONE SITUATION.

AS WE KNOW, IT'S MORE 80/20 WITH HIM DOWN THERE.

>> HE'S UNCOVERED RIGHT NOW.

NOBODY WAS ON HIM.

THEY GO TO HIM RIGHT THERE.

THREE MEN CONVERGE ON HIM.

SO THEY HAD HIM COVERED.

BUT FOR A MOMENT.

YOU COULD SEE THE LOOK ON HIS FACE.

HE'S LIKE, DO YOU SEE WHAT SEE, THERE'S NOBODY ON ME.

>> ALMOST SCARED LIKE WHAT DEFENSE IS THIS.

I NEVER SEEN THIS KIND OF DEFENSE.

SOMEBODY COMING, NICE FIND THERE BY SAM HORN SHOWING THE BRILLIANT ARM HE HAS.

>> I'M EXCITED TO SEE WHAT HE DOES IN THE SEC.

3rd DOWN AND 6.

LOBS IT.

TO ANDERSON AND HOLDS ON THROUGH THE HIT.

THORNTON BROUGHT SOME THUNDER AND ANDERSON HOLDS ON TO THE BALL, FIRST AND GOAL TO GO FOR COLLINS HILL.

>> NICE ROUTE.

JUST A SEAM ROUTE, RIGHT UP THE FIELD.

RIGHT ON THE HASH MARK.

TAKING THE BIG HIT THERE BY BRYCE THORNTON.

WHAT A GAME HE HAS PUT TOGETHER TONIGHT, SPENCER ANDERSON.

>> FIRST AND GOAL TO GO.

COLLINS HILL.

COULD THIS BE THE KNOCK OUT PUNCH.

TOUCHDOWN.

TRAVIS HUNTER.

20-0, COLLINS HILL.

>> TOUGH ASK FOR HOLMES, 21 TO COVER THIS KIND OF TALENT.

WE HAVE A FLAG ON THE PLAY.

YOU CAN SEE IT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN.

BEAUTIFUL OUTROUTD.

RIGHT INSIDE.

>> UNSPORTSMANLIKE CONDUCT.

ON THE KICK OFF.

>> SECURING THE CATCH.

THE DEBATE STARTS AS WE TALKED ABOUT LAST TIME WE SAW TRAVIS HUNTER.

WHAT SIDE OF THE BALL WILL HE END ON NEXT YEAR.

>> I AGREE LAST TIME WE HAD COLLINS HILL HERE ON GPB THAT FOR IMMEDIATE IMPACT, WIDE RECEIVER, FOR HIM TO MAKE AN IMMEDIATE IMPACT IN RECEIVER.

WE'RE TOLD THAT HEAD COACH OF FLORIDA STATE IS IN THE STANDS WATCHING, I WOULD BE THERE TOO IF I WERE HIM.

>> NICE READ BY HORN, STEPPING INTO THE THROW.

YOU LOVE HOW TRAVIS HUNTER KNEW, GET INSIDE.

A LOT OF GUYS PULL UP THAT ROUTE OUT OF THE END ZONE.

TRAVIS HUNTER SHOWING THE SMARTS.

TALK ABOUT AN IMMEDIATE IMPACT.

THAT'S WHAT FLORIDA STATE NEEDS, THEY NEED SOMEONE TO BRING ENERGY AND EXCITEMENT BACK TO THEIR PROGRAM, HE MIGHT BE THE GUY TO SPARK THEM.

>> 8 CATCHES, 107 YARDS FOR TRAVIS HUNTER TONIGHT.

HORN WITH 6 FOR 63 YARDS.

YEAH, BETTER PLAYERS WILL COVER HIM IN COLLEGE BUT WILL ALSO BE SURROUNDED BY BETTER WIDE RECEIVERS.

SO THE TALENT LEVELS GO UP AND YOU KNOW, THE TIDE RAISES ALL SHIPS, RIGHT.

SO, YEAH, IT WILL BE TOUGHER COMPETITION.

BUT THAT WILL ONLY BRING OUT THE BEST AND WE'VE ALREADY SEEN A LOT.

>> AND THE THING IS HE'S 6'2".

ON THE ROSTER RIGHT NOW HE'S ONLY 170.

THE BEAUTY IS ONCE THEY FILL OUT ANOTHER 20, 25 POUNDS, HE'S STRONG AND FAST, HE'S NOT GOING TO LOSE ANY SPEED, ALL HIS INTANGIBLES JUST GET BIGGER.

>> COMING DOWN TO THE 30 AFTER THE PENALTY.

GATLING ON THE RETURN.

HE'S GOING BACKWARDS.

SECURES THE BALL.

GOES DOWN AT THE 34.

AS WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE COLLINS HILL RESUME.

THEY'RE GOING FOR THEIR FIRST EVER FOOTBALL STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TONIGHT.

PLAYING IN THEIR SECOND STRAIGHT SAT CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

BACK-TO-BACK REGION CHAMPIONS, 14 WINS, MOST IN SCHOOL HISTORY, TRYING TO MAKE IT 15 HERE TONIGHT.

TAYLOR -- TYLER HEINEKE WE SEEN WITH WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM THIS YEAR AROUND MAYA MOORE ONE OF THE BEST AND GREATEST BASKETBALL PLAYERS ALL TIME NOTED COLLINS HILL ALUMNI.

FIRST AND TEN.

MILTON TO THE AIR.

GATLING WITH THE CATCH.

IS THAT A FUMBLE?

>> LOOKED LIKE HE WAS DOWN.

>> I THOUGHT HE WAS DOWN NO SIGNIFICANTLE FROM THE OFFICIAL.

AND NOW THE JUDGE FROM THE SIDELINE SAID HE WAS DOWN, I THINK.

>> QUICK SLANT BROUGHT INSIDE TRAVIS HUNTER.

HAVING A MEETING.

>> WOW.

>> OH, WOW.

>> COLLINS HILL HAS IT.

13 YARD PICK UP AND FUMBLE AT THE END OF THE PLAY.

>> NICE RPO, NICE READ, KEEPING THE BALL LOW, DOUBLE CATCHING IT.

THAT IS A FUMBLE.

>> THAT'S A FUMBLE.

>> BY TRAVIS HUNTER RIGHT AT THE END, YOU CAN SEE, GATINGING HAVING DOUBLE CATCH THE BALL.

BALL IS OUT BEFORE THE KNEE TOUCHES THE GROUNT.

TRAVIS HUNTER WITH THE TOUCHDOWN COMING TO GET THE FUMBLE TO GIVE HIS TEAM THE SHORT FIELD.

WE WERE TALKING ABOUT TRAVIS HUNTER.

ONE THING THAT HAPPENS IN COLLEGE, YOU DON'T HAVE TO KNOW BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL.

EVEN IF YOU PLAY COUPLE SNAPS OVER THERE YOU WON'T HAVE TO KNOW A WHOLE GAME PLAN, YOU GET TO FOCUS ON WHAT YOU DO WHEN GET TO FLORIDA STATE.

>> HAND OFF GOES TO STEVENS THERE AND NOW MILTON?

A LOT OF TROUBLE.

DOWN 21-0.

>> CAN KIND OF SEE ON LT'S FACE, HE SEES IT IS GETTING AWAY FROM HIM.

TOUGH TASK.

COLLINS HILL COMES IN THIS GAME, A LOT OF MOTIVATION TO FINISH THIS OFFER FOR SAM HORN AND TRAVIS HUNTER AND THESE SEEN YEARS TO TAKE HOME THE CHAMPIONSHIP WITH A PERFECT SEASON.

>> HORN GOING FOR IT.

ALL JUMP BALL.

TRAVIS HUNTER.

DO YOUR THING.

>> SEEN THIS ALL NIGHT.

TRAVIS HUNTER FINDS A WAY TO GET THE ONE-ON-ONE.

BEAUTIFUL SHOW OF ACCELERATION.

EITHER GOING TO STOP OR U.

COME BACK AND THEN HIT YOU WITH A BURST OF SPEED.

GREAT BALL SKILLS WHEN THE BALL IS IN THE AIR.

>> AND THAT WAS THE FINAL PLAY OF THE THIRD QUARTER.

TRAVIS HUNTER MAKING HIS PRESENCE FELT IN ATLANTA.

21-0, COLLINS HILL AS WE HEAD TO THE FOURTH QUARTER.

>>> START OF THE FOURTH QUARTER, I WANT TO SHOUT OUT THE CREW.

WE'RE TWO DAY AS WAY FROM ANNA AND HER HUSBAND JOHN WELCOMING IN THEIR TWIN DAUGHTERS INTO THE WORLD.

WE MISSED YOU HERE ON STATE CHAMPIONSHIP WEEK COVERAGE.

WE LOVE YOU.

GOT BIG THINGS IN FRONT OF YOU.

HERE WE GO, FOURTH QUARTER.

HORN GOING TO TOSS IT BACK TO JAYLEN GEORGE WHO MAKES THE ONE-HANDED CATCH AND GOES DOWN TO THE A YARD LINE.

>> BECAUSE THAT'S HOW YOU DRAW UP.

YOU PUT YOUR STARTING LEFT TACKLE IN.

YOU MAKE HIM ELIGIBLE AND THEN YOU RUN A SCREEN TO HIM.

NICE JOB, BEAUTIFUL JOB, ONE-HANDED CATCH WITH THE LEFT HAND.

AND THEN JUST SHOWING OFF RIGHT THERE.

RUNNING WITH THE BALL IN ONE HAND.

A LINEMAN'S DREAM IS TO CATCH THE BALL.

I HAD THE CHANCE IN MY SENIOR YEAR TO CATCH A BALL BUT I FUMBLED.

I HAVE TO CONFESS I FUMBLED.

>> HORN TO THE AIR.

OVER HUNTER'S HEAD THIS TIME.

3rd DOWN AND FOUR.

SEE THE NUMBERS FOR TRAVIS HUNTER, LIKE I SID, GOING INTO THE FOURTH QUARTER YOU CAN CONTAIN HIM FOR ONLY SO LONG, SECOND HALF, HE'S BUSTED OUT 6 CATCHES FOR 150.

>> EARLY IN THE GAME MOVED HIM AROUND A LOT, BACK FIELD, IN THE SLOT.

MAJORITY OF THIS HALF YOU JUST SEEN HIM OUT WIDE, TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO GET INTO THAT MAN-TO-MAN COVERAGE AND LET HIM TAKE ADVANTAGE OF WHOEVER IS COVERING HIM FROM AN ATHLETIC STANDPOINT.

>> THIRD AND FOUR.

ANDERSON.

GETS MELT BY LT OVERTON AND THE REST OF HIS BUDDIES RIGHT THERE DRIVES BACK SPENCER.

OWEN PHILLIPS IN ON THE TACKLE, AS WELL AS OWEN PAULEY AND IT'S 4th DOWN.

FOLKS LOOK AT NUMBER NINE.

TAKING A PICTURE.

ONE PERSON YOU MIGHT IMAGINE PUTTING A GREEN JERSEY ON IS LT OVERTON, LETTING HIM COME INTO YOUR BACK FIELD, HE'S NOT THAT GUY, WITH HIS SIZE AND SPEED WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A GUY THAT NEXT YEAR SHOULD COME IN WITH AN EXTRA STAR ALMOST.

FIVE STAR, I DON'T KNOW IF HE CAN GET TO SIX.

BUT SO MUCH POTENTIAL THAT HE SHOWS.

>> THE NOTCH, HE PUTS IT THROUGH.

FROM 26 YARDS OUT.

AND COLLINS HILL EXTENDS THE LEAD, IT IS 24-0.

TIME TICKING DOWN ON THE 2021 SEASON.

>>> THERE'S A LOT OF ANTICIPATION IN THE AIR RIGHT NOW.

>> 24-0, COLLINS HILL, NOW LESS THAN 10:30 LEFT IN THIS 7A STATE FINAL.

PEST MANAGEMENT HAS BEEN SERVING GEORGIA SINCE 1975, IN THE SIZE OF ONE FOOTBALL FIELD COULD BE OVER MILLION TERMITES.

BREDA PEST MANAGEMENT .COM.

>> SO, AFTER KICKING THE 26-YARD FIELD GOAL, IT'S TEED UP AND READY TO KICK OFF.

YOU CAN TELL ON THESE KICKS TO THIS SIDE THEY GO DEEPER BECAUSE OF THE WIND.

PICKED UP ON A HOP BY BRYCE THORNTON.

GETS BY HIM, STILL DOWN THE SIDELINE, KEEPING HIS BALANCE, AND ALL THE WAY DOWN CLOSE TO THE 30.

>> THERE'S ONE PERSON ON THIS EAGLES TEAM THAT HAS CONSISTENTLY SHOWN YOU TONIGHT THAT HE HAS NO FEAR IN HIM.

AND THAT HAS BEEN BRYCE THORNTON, WHETHER IN SPECIAL TEAMS, DEFENSE, RIGHT HERE, PICKING THIS BALL UP, AND SHOWING YOU SPEED.

KEEPING HIS BALANCE, SHAKING GUYS OFF HIM ON THE SIDELINE, EVEN HAVING THE VISION THERE AT THE END TO SEE SPENCER ANDERSON OUT THE CORNER OF HIS EYE.

TRYING TO LET HIM PASS.

IF YOU'RE COACH CLACK WAS HOPING WOULD FILTER THROUGH THE REST OF YOUR TEAM.

BECAUSE EVER SINCE THAT FIRST QUARTER THIS MILTON TEAM HAS KIND OF PLAYED SCARED.

>> AND FARRELL STAKES THE SACK.

WAY BACK.

AS DORSEY GETS IN THERE.

THAT IS SACK NUMBER FIVE.

SACK NUMBER FIVE.

SIX.

PARDON ME.

SIX SACKS FOR THE COLLINS HILL DEFENSE TONIGHT.

>> A DEFENSE THAT CAME IN WITH 55.5 ADDING ANOTHER FIVE.

SO THESE SITUATIONS, DEVIN FARRELL IS GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE QUICK DECISIONS BECAUSE THEY ARE AGGRESSIVE AND GREAT TACKLERS WHEN THEY GET THERE.

>> SNAP GOES TO MCDONALD.

HE GETS TRIPPED UP.

THAT WAS JADEN DAVIS THE THREE-STAR SAFETY COMING UP FROM HIS BACK SPOT TO MAKE THE TACKLE.

AND YOU SAW THE BRYCE THORNTON, HE IS A JUNIOR THREE STAR SAFETY TEN OFFERS INCLUDING GEORGIA, OREGON AND MICHIGAN STATE YOU KNOW WHAT ALL THREE THOSE TEAMS HAVE IN COMMON, GEORGIA IS KIRBY SMART AND OREGON IS NOW COACHED BY DAN LANDING AND MEL TUCKER HEAD COACH OF MICHIGAN STATE.

3rd DOWN AND TWELVE.

GOING TO SWING IT OUT TO MCDONALD.

HE GETS TACKLED IN THE OPEN FIELD BY AARON HORTON.

GUY THAT LENNY GREGORY TOLD US COUPLE WEEKS AGO HE HAS BEEN THE UNSUNG HERO OF THIS COLLINS HILL DEFENSE.

>> CALL HIM A UTILITY GUY.

HE'S PHYSICAL AND VERY PROUD.

HE'S KEY TO THE DEFENSE.

HIS COACH SPOKE ABOUT HIM.

SAYING HE'S JUST THAT GUY.

LAST YEAR HE HAD A BACK SURGERY.

BOUNCED BACK FROM THAT.

YOU CAN SEE RIGHT THERE, GETTING OFF THE BLOCK.

MAKING BIG TIME TACKLE IN THE OPEN FIELD.

>> HE'S TIED FOR THE TEAM LEAD, 11 TACKLES TONIGHT.

WITH TFL.

FOURTH AND 13.

FARRELL.

LOOKING.

GOING TOWARDS THE END ZONE.

IT'S CAUGHT INSIDE THE 5 YARD LINE.

AND MILTON STAYS ALIVE.

ADAM FREASE COMES UP WITH THE BIG-TIME CATCH.

30 YARDS DOWN FIELD.

>> TRYING TO GET THIS BALL DOWN FIELD TO JORDAN MCDONALD.

WHO WE SAW MOTION OUT.

RUNNING THE GO ROUTE ON THE EDGE.

ADAM FREASE DECIDED HE WOULD COME OVER AND TAKE THE BALL AWAY.

SAW BOTH OF THEM IN THE SAME AREA.

NICE PLAY BY HIM.

>> SO MILTON TRYING TO STAY ALIVE HERE.

UNDER EIGHT MINUTES TO GO.

THEY'RE NOT OUT OF IT YET.

BUT IT'S GOING TO BE VERY DIFFICULT.

MCDONALD.

STOPPED AT THE 2.

>> DION CRAWFORD 18, HITTING MCDONALD IN THE BACK FIELD.

NOT LETTING HIM GET ANY MOMENTUM.

WE'VE SEEN WHEN HE HITS THE LINE CLEAN.

HE CAN PICK UP TWO OR THREE YARDS.

NICE JOB BY JUNIOR LINEBACKER.

>> HELMET CAME OFF.

HE COMES OFF THE FIELD.

LT IN THE BACK WITH FARRELL.

TOUCHDOWN.

MILTON THEY FINALLY GET ON THE BOARD.

WITH 7:20 TO PLAY.

>> LET ME ASK THIS, IT'S 24-6 ARE YOU GOING FOR TWO?

>> YOU GOT TO GO FOR TWO BECAUSE EACH AND EVERY TIME YOU GET A TOUCHDOWN IF THAT'S POSSIBLE THAT'S THE ONLY WAY.

YOU GOT TO LOOK AT IT AS THREE POSSESSIONS INSTEAD OF FOUR.

>> KICKING AN EXTRA POINT ONLY MEANS YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO FIND A FIELD GOAL SOMEWHERE.

GOING FOR TWO.

SNAP GOES.

BACK TO FARRELL.

ON THE PITCH FROM MCDONALD.

GOING TO THE END ZONE.

AND JACK NICHOL COMES DOWN WITH IT.

WHAT A CATCH JACK NICHOL THREE-STAR TIGHTEND.

HE'S AN OLD SCHOOL TIGHTEND.

COMES DOWN WITH THE BIG TIME CATCH.

TWO-POINT CONVERSION.

MILTON STILL IN THE GAME.

IT'S 24-8.

LOOK AT THAT.

INCREDIBLE CONCENTRATION.

IT'S NOT OVER IN ATLANTA.

>> MILTON TRYING TO STAGE A LATE DRAMATIC FOURTH QUARTER COMEBACK, WITH HOPES STILL ALIVE THANKS TO THE TWO-POINT CONVERSION FROM 86 JACK NICHOL, OWNING THE RECORD FOR MOST CAREER GAMES PLAYED.

I TALKED TO COACH CLACK WHO SAID THE THING MOST IMPRESSIVE ABOUT NICHOL IS HE IS NEVER WORRIED ABOUT DO I HAVE ENOUGH TOUCHES ON THE RECEIVING GAME, NEVER SHOWS HIS BODY LANGUAGE, ONLY QUESTION HE ASKS AS THE END OF THE GAME, DID WE DO ENOUGH TO WIN.

A TRUE TEAM PLAYER, MATT?

>> INDEED HE IS AND JUST HELPED GET THEM BACK IN THE GAME.

MILTON ONE FOR THREE IN ON-SIDE KICKS THIS SEASON.

SEE IF THEY TRY TO EXECUTE ONE RIGHT HERE.

THEY DO BOUNCE IT.

IT ROLLS TO THE 40 YARD LINE.

AND LOOSE.

AND I THINK MILTON WAS NOT ABLE TO GET ON TOP OF IT.

COLLINS HILL FINALLY FELL ON THAT BALL AFTER IT POPPED LOOSE A SECOND TIME.

>> SAM HORN, 21, THE QUARTERBACK.

ACTUALLY ON THE HANDS, TRYING TO BRING THAT IN.

HE LOST THE BALL.

THAT'S VERY INTERESTING THAT'S YOUR QUARTERBACK IS ON THE HANDS TEAM.

NEVER REALLY SEEN THAT.

TRYING TO COVER THE BALL.

IT POPS OUT OF HIS HANDS.

AND FORTUNATE FOR COLLINS HILL.

THEY WERE ABLE TO COVER THE BALL.

>> DARE I SAY THAT IS THE LAST TIME HE WILL EVER BE ON THE HANDS, IT'S NOT HAPPENING AT MISSOURI, CERTAINLY IF HE GOES BEYOND THAT DEFINITELY NOT HAPPENING AFTER THAT.

AND I'D SAY HE'S GOT A SHOT AT THAT.

I MEAN, HE'S GOT A SHOT AT BEING THAT QUARTERBACK THAT GETS TO THE NEXT LEVEL.

OF COURSE THEY HAD ONE WHO HAD GOTTEN TO THAT LEVEL IN A RATHER UNCONVENTIONAL WAY.

TAILOR HEINEKE WHO STARRED AT OLD DOMINION NOWHERE NEAR SAM HORN AND MADE HIS WAY TO THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE AND HAS BEEN ONE OF THE STORIES IN THE LEAGUE PLAYING FOR THE WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM.

>> DEFINITELY SHOWING A COMPETITIVE SPIRIT.

>> RIGHT.

>> A LOT OF TIME HE'S TAKES THE FIELD PEOPLE PUSH HIS PLAY ASIDE BUT HE FIGHTS EACH AND EVERY SUNDAY.

>> HE DOESN'T COME IN WITH THE BIG CONTRACT, IN FACT, I THINK I READ A COMMENT FROM HEINEKE THAT SAID BACK IN THE OFF SEASON HE WAS RESIGNED TO THE FACT HE WAS DONE WITH FOOTBALL.

HE DIDN'T THINK HE'D GET ANOTHER CHANCE.

BUT DOORS ALWAYS SEEM TO OPEN, SOMETIMES, AND THEY DID FOR HIM.

3rd DOWN AND FOUR RIGHT HERE.

COLLINS HILL THREE OF EIGHT ON THEIR 3rd DOWN CONVERSIONS.

CLOCK TICKS, CLOSE TO SIX MINUTES TO GO IN REGULATION.

>> TAKING THEIR TIME.

NOT REALLY A RUN, EMPTY BACK FIELD, ONCE AGAIN, YOU IMAGINE SAM HORN GOING TO KEEP THIS AND RUN IT.

>> PASS COMPLETE.

HE GOT THE 1st DOWN AT THE LINE TO GAIN MARKER IS RIGHT, HE GOT TO THE 47.

HE DID IT.

1st DOWN.

>> HAVING TO USE THE SHORT PASSING GAME AS THEIR RUN GAME TONIGHT.

NICE JOB, STEPPING INTO THE THROW, DELIVERING TO CAM PEDRO.

FRESH SEVENTY DOWNS TO WORK WITH AS WILL HE START THE PLAY OR GET ANOTHER DOWN WHEN HE STARTS CALLING.

>> PLAY CLOCK AT ONE WHEN THEY SNAP IT.

SPENCER ANDERSON GETS ABOUT EIGHT ON THE PLAY.

COLLINS HILL, FIVE MINUTES AWAY.

FROM THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

>> INTERESTING THAT RYAN STEVENS FOR COLLINS HILL IS NOT IN THE GAME AT THIS POINT, 6'2", 230.

BUT SPENCER ANDERSON WHAT A GAME HE'S PUT TOGETHER TONIGHT IN HIS LAST GAME AS A SENIOR.

>> YEAH, BACK-TO-BACK GAMES.

YOU SEE TAYLOR HEINEKE WAS NUMBER 14, RETIRED.

THIS COLLINS HILL TEAM ABOUT TO DO SOMETHING HIS WAS NOT ABLE TO DO.

AND DIVING CATCH UNABLE TO MAKE IT AT THE 10 YARD LINE.

>> THIRD AND TWO, SURE GO TO SAM ESPECIALLY THE WAY HE'S USED HIS FEET TONIGHT, RUN THE CLOCK, GIVES YOU THIRD AND TWO, EXPECT COLLINS HILL TO RUN THE BALL, WE'VE SEEN THEM GO EMPTY BACK FIELD AND SHORT PASSING GAME AS WELL.

>> 4:30 TO GO.

CLOCK STOPS WITH THE INCOMPLETION.

>> ALONG WITH THE HARD COUNT, TRYING TO DRAW MILTON OFFSIDE.

DIDN'T WORK.

>> HAND OFF.

1st DOWN.

SPENCER ANDERSON.

THAT WILL ROLL THE CLOCK SOME MORE.

>> YOU ASKED THE QUESTION, AND VALID QUESTION, WHEN DOES MILTON START USING THOSE TIME-OUTS?

ARE WE THERE YET?

>> DOWN TWO SCORES.

YOUR OFFENSE REALLY HASN'T BEEN AERIAL -- REALLY NOT YOUR OFFENSE, YOU DID COME UP WITH THE BIG PLAY WITH ADAM FREASE ON THE LAST DRIVE TO SET UP THE TOUCHDOWN.

RIGHT NOW CLOCK JUST TICKING.

YOU REALLY CAN'T AFFORD TO LET COLLINS HILL GET ANOTHER 1st DOWN.

>> SO WE'LL SEE IF THE TIMEOUT COMES AFTER THIS NEXT PLAY.

YOU SEE STEVENS GOING IN MOTION.

HORN GOING TO STEP UP AND PICK UP THE 1st DOWN.

SLID DOWN BEFORE THE MARKER.

CAME UP A YARD SHORT.

GREAT DEBATE THIS WEEK WITH KENNY PICKETT FAKE SLIDE IN THE ACC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME AND NCAA OUTLAWED IT, YOU CAN'T FAKE THE SLIDE ANY MORE.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

>> NCAA ACTING QUICKLY.

MUST HAVE BEEN AN INFRACTION.

WHO KNOWS.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME THEY ACTED THAT QUICK.

>> WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME NCAA ACTED ON ANYTHING.

TOOK A HUNDRED YEARS TO COME WITH A PLAY OFF.

>> NOT SURE IF SAM HORN MEANT TO SLIDE SHORT TO KEEP THE CLOCK GOING IN THAT SITUATION BUT HE DID A GREAT JOB AND TIME IS JUST TICKING.

NOT SURE WHAT MILTON IS DOING WITH THE TIME-OUTS IN THIS SITUATION.

>> THERE'S ANOTHER 1st DOWN RIGHT THERE BY STEVENS.

AND CERTAINLY NOW THEY ARE IN THAT PLACE, NOT HERE.

BUT THE NEXT SNAP.

YOU GOT TO START BURNING THE TIME-OUTS.

>> SEE, RYAN STEVENSON IN THE GAME.

BIG BACK.

6'2".

230.

GOING TO FALL FORWARD MOST OF THE TIME.

>> COLLINS HILL COMES UP TO THE LINE.

LT OVERTON IN HIS JUNIOR SEASON MIGHT BE DESTINED TO COME UP VICTORY SHORT OF THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP UNLESS SOMETHING MIRACULOUS HAPPENS.

MILTON DOING -- RATHER, COLLINS HILL DOG A GREAT JOB OF TIME MANAGEMENT.

STEVENS, RIGHT UP THE MIDDLE, GETS EIGHT.

THEY GOT TO USE THE TIMEOUT.

THEY DON'T USE IT YET.

>> AND HAS MILTON HEAD COACH, I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE STRATEGY IS AT THIS MOMENT.

BUT YOU HAVE IT OPEN FOR BIG PLAY ON DEFENSE.

AND THEN USE THE TIMEOUT.

TIME IS RUNNING OUT.

THEY CAN GET A STOP HERE AND MAKE IT 3rd DOWN, YOU'LL SEE THE TIMEOUT.

HORN.

HEAVY PRESSURE COMING AFTER HIM.

LT OVERTON.

GOT TO HIM.

HE THROWS IT OUT-OF-BOUNDS.

THAT STOPS CLOKT FOR HIM.

DOES HIM A, COULDN'T GET HIM DOWN.

>> MILTON DEFENSE OUT IN THAT SITUATION, GOING TO THE PASS.

WITH THE ABILITY OF SAM HORN.

NOW HE CAN RUN THE BALL.

JUST SAW THE PLAY BEFORE, STEVENS PICKING UP SEVEN YARDS, INTERESTING CALL, DROPPED BACK AND TRIED TO THROW THE BALL.

3rd DOWN AND THREE.

IF MILTON'S GOING TO HAVE A CHANCE THEY GOT TO GET A STOP ON THIS PLAY AND THEY DO NOT GET IT AND THEN THE BALL COMES OUT BUT HE WAS DOWN, AND THAT SHOULD BE THE CLENCHING 1st DOWN.

MILTON DOES HAVE ALL THREE TIME-OUTS REMAINING.

THEY CAN POSSIBLY STILL GET THE BALL BACK.

BUT IT'S THE COMEBACK, OR ANY POTENTIAL COMEBACK IS ALMOST STRETCHED BEYOND THE REALM OF PROBABILITY AT THIS POINT.

>> 24-8.

1:30 LEFT IN THE GAME AGAINST THIS KIND OF COLLINS HILL DEFENSE, NOT REALLY IN THE CARDS HERE FOR THIS MILTON EAGLES TEAM.

>> 1:15 TO GO.

COLLINS HILL TAKES THE TIMEOUT.

STOPS THE CLOCK 1:07.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT TONIGHT'S PLAY OF THE GAME.

PRESENTED BY BESTIESS.

SHARE WITH YOUR BESTIES.

THIS IS THE OPENING PLAY OF THE SECOND HALF.

DID NOT TURN INTO POINTS, BUT IT TURNED EVENTUALLY INTO POINTS, NOT DIRECTLY.

BIG 60-YARD PLAY TO TRAVIS HUNTER.

AND THAT SIGNALLED THE GAME LOOSENING UP.

AT THAT POINT IT'S 7-0.

>> SAM HORN, TO TRAVIS HUNTER.

BECAME A BIG THEME IN THIS SECOND HALF.

ONLY THREE CONNECTIONS IN THAT FIRST.

BUT THEY CAME UP BIG IN THE SECOND HALF.

THAT COMBO OF HORN TO HUNTER.

HAS BROUGHT A LOT OF TEARS TO A LOT OF DEFENSES FOR A LONG TIME.

>> I'M THINKING WE'RE PROBABLY GOING TO BE GOING TWO-MAN, GEORGIA COTTON COMMISSION PLAYER OF THE GAME TONIGHT.

SO FIRST AND TEN.

AND THE HAND OFF GOES TO STEVEN, STEVENS INSIDE THE 10 YARD LINE.

STEPPED OUT-OF-BOUNDS.

STOP THE CLOCK.

AND LENNY GREGORY GETS THE ICE BATH.

COLLINS HILL GOING TO COMPLETE A 15 AND 0 SEASON.

LOOK AT TRAVIS HUNTER.

LOVE IT.

>> ALWAYS.

-- LENNY GREGORY I'M KIND OF DISAPPOINTED WITH A ASANI REDWOOD RIGHT THERE, BIG-TIME PLAYER HE IS.

WE NEED MORE WATER IN THAT JUG.

WASN'T ENOUGH WATER RIGHT THERE.

LENNY GREGORY IS A BIG FELLA.

>> GOT TO FILTER UP THAT BUCKET RIGHT.

>> WE NEED TO FILL IT UP.

>> FIRST AND GOAL FROM THE 7 YARD LINE.

>> MILTON DEFENSE STILL FIGHTING.

DOESN'T LOOK LIKE ADAM CLACK IS GOING TO USE A TIMEOUT.

AT THIS POINT IT WOULD JUST BE STOPPING CLOKT FOR NO REASON.

THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO WIN THIS GAME.

COLLINS HILL IS GOING TO BE THE STATE CHAMPIONS.

WHAT A JOB BY LENNY GREGORY.

PLAYED FOR LAVELL EDWARDS DEFENSIVE LINEMAN AT BYU.

WASN'T IN COACHING TO BEGIN WITH, HE GOT INTO IT NOW IS STATE CHAMPION AT HEAD COACH, WON STATE CHAMPION AS DEFENSIVE COORDINATORS WITH BRACEON AND NOW ONE AS HEAD COACH.

>> YOU CAN SEE THE EMOTION.

WE'VE TALKED TO HIM COUPLE TIMES THIS YEAR.

SEEMED LIKE HE JUST DIDN'T WANT TO GET INTO THAT MIND STATE.

HE WAS ON A MISSION TO BRING COLLINS HILL FINALLY A BIG CHAMPIONSHIP IN FOOTBALL.

LOOKING TO GET SAM HORN AND HUNTER OFF THE FIELD.

SUCH AN ACCOMPLISHED CAREER AND NOW AS COACH TO BRING HOME THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

SHOWING ALL OF THE EMOTIONS THAT BRING A LONG JOURNEY TO GET TO 15-0 AND TAKE HOME THE TROPHY.

>> NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.

AS HE TOLD US THIS WEEK THEY WERE AT GROUND ZERO.

I MEAN, THEY WERE BAD.

THEY WERE IN PRETTY BAD SHAPE.

AND HE HAS TURNED THIS TEAM INTO A STATE CHAMPION.

I MEAN, THEY'VE HAD POCKETS OF SUCCESS IN THE PAST.

KEVIN REACH.

AL FARING, LATE COACH.

THEY'VE HAD POCKETS OF SUCCESS BUT NOTHING LIKE THIS.

BIG MOMENT FOR S CARLET -- LENNY GREGORY CELEBRATING WITH COLLINS HILL EAGLES.

ARE YOU THE 2021 CLASS 7A STATE CHAMPION FOR THE FIRST TIME IN PROGRAM HISTORY.

>> DOMINANT SEASON BY COLLINS HILL.

REALLY NO CLOSE GAMES.

FOR THEM ALL SEASON LONG.

YOU HAVE TO GO BACK ABOUT 50 YEARS TO LOOK FOR A TEAM THAT THEY'RE WINNING MARGIN THROUGHOUT ENTIRE SEASON.

STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

A LOT OF PRIDE.

A LOT OF TALENT.

GREAT JOB BY LENNY GREGORY, DIRECTING IT THIS YEAR TO BRING HOME THE TROPHY.

>> YEAH, I MEAN, THEY JUST ROLLED THROUGH 7A IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA ABOUT AS GOOD OF HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL AS YOU CAN FIND IN ENTIRE NATION.

7A IN GEORGIA.

THEY GO 15-0.

AND THEY NEVER OH, MY GOODNESS -- AND THEY NEVER WIN BY LESS THAN 15 POINTS IN A GAME.

INCLUDING THE STATE FINAL HERE TONIGHT.

>> MATT, I HAD A DREAM OF BEING ABLE TO LAY OUT LIKE THAT ONE TIME A BACK FLIP.

COACH WAS HOLDING HIS BREATH.

>> WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOUNG MAN.

THAT'S THE NEXT BIG DRAMA.

RIGHT?

WE FIND OUT ON NATIONAL SIGNING DAY DOES THAT COMMITMENT FROM MARCH OF 2020 WHEN TRAVIS HUNTER WAS A SOPHOMORE DOES IT STICK, WILL IT BE FLORIDA STATE.

HE'S SAID ALL ALONG TO EVERYBODY WHO ASKS, AND TRUST ME EVERYBODY HAS ASKED ARE YOU STICKING WITH FLORIDA STATE?

NOW WE FIND OUT ON WEDNESDAY, NATIONAL SIGNING DAY, THE BIG DECISION.

>> WANTS TO BRING FLORIDA STATE BACK TO PROMINENCE.

I KNOW THEY'VE HAD A COUPLE TOUGH YEARS HERE THE LAST FOUR OR FIVE YEARS.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A TEAM OF COLLEGE -- A PROGRAM THAT WAS THE EPITOME OF STARS AND TALENT AND JUST WON A NATIONAL TITLE.

EIGHT YEARS AGO.

THAT FAMOUS WIN LAST YEAR.

NOT A STATE TITLE BUT A NATIONAL TITLE.

HE HAS A LOT OF PRIDE IN GOING THERE TO TRY TO TURN THAT PROGRAM BACK INTO WHAT IT WAS.

>> SO WE SEE WHAT HAPPENS ON NATIONAL SIGNING DAY.

HERE TONIGHT ON THE FINAL NIGHT OF THE SEASON IN GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL THE FINAL GAME IN GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL HE CROWNS HIS CAREER WITH THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP AND SO DOES THAT YOUNG MAN RIGHT THERE SAM HORN WHO LIVED IN THE SHADOW OF TRAVIS HUNTER.

SAM HORN N MOST PLACES, DARE WE SAY HE WOULD BE THE STAR, HE WOULD BE THE MEGA STAR HE'S 1 B TO THE 1A OF TRAVIS HUNTER.

BOTH THOSE GUYS INTERGRAL TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP HERE.

AND LENNY GREGORY EVEN SAID THAT HE WAS THE X-FACTOR.

SAM HORN WAS THE X-FACTOR FOR US THIS YEAR WHEN TRAVIS HUNTER WAS HURT, SAM HORN SHOWED WE WERE MORE THAN JUST TRAVIS HUNTER.

COLLINS HILL, THE STATE CHAMPIONS, LET'S SEND IT TO JOHN NELSON.

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH, IT IS THAT TIME TO PRESENT THE TROPHY OF THE WEEKEND, FIRST AND FOREMOST SHOUT OUT TO EVERYONE FROM MILTON.

TREMENDOUS SEASON TO EVERYBODY, HEAD COACH ADAM CLACK.

NOW TIME TO PRESENT THE TROPHY, LET'S DO IT.

HERE'S THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR GEORGIA FARM BUREAU INSURANCE.

>> FIRST I'D LIKE TO CONGRATULATE MILTON, COACH CLACK AND HIS STAFF, FOR A GREAT OUTSTANDING YEAR, CERTAINLY ONE OF THE PREMIER PROGRAMS IN OUR STATE AND I KNOW THEY'LL BE COMING BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN.

BUT THIS YEAR, THE DAY BELONGS TO COLLINS HILL.

AND I WANT TO CONGRATULATE YOU COACH, IT'S BEEN A GREAT PLEASURE WATCHING YOU THE LAST COUPLE YEARS BUILD THIS PROGRAM AND GET IT TO WHERE IT IS AND TO BE CLOSE LAST YEAR AND FINISH IT THIS TIME, OUTSTANDING JOB, JUST PROUD OF YOU AND YOUR KIDS AND YOUR ADMINISTRATION, WORKING TOGETHER, IT'S TRULY BEEN A TEAM EFFORT AND A FUN THING TO WATCH.

AND SO, THERE'S NOTHING LEFT FOR US TO DO RIGHT NOW EXCEPT TO AWARD YOU THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY FOR 7A, CONGRATULATIONS, COACH.

>> ALL RIGHT.

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] >> ALL RIGHT.

MY FIRST QUESTION FOR YOU, WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME THAT YOU PUT DANCE MOVES LIKE THAT YOU WERE DANCING PRETTY HARD.

>> MAN THERE'S A LOT THAT WENT INTO THIS ONE, THIS ONE IS SO SWEET, SO MUCH WORK, SO MUCH DEDICATION, SO MUCH COMMITMENT FROM THE COMMUNITY, OUR KIDS, OUR ADMINISTRATION, OUR COACHING STAFF, EVERYBODY, WORKED TOGETHER TO WIN THIS ONE.

>> BECAUSE COMING INTO THE SEASON EVERYONE WAS LOOKING AT NATIONALLY RANKED, YOU'RE TOP FIVE, YOU'RE THIS, YOU'RE THAT, ALL THE TALK, ALL THE CHATTER, YOU HAD TO FIND A WAY TO TUNE IT ALL OUT UNTIL MID-DECEMBER.

>> SO PROUD OF OUR KIDS WE WENT TO WORK EACH WEEK.

OUR MOTTO WAS 1-0, FINISH THE MISSION AND THE MISSION IS FINISHED.

>> COUPLE MORE, LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR DEFENSE.

FIRST AND FOREMOST.

BECAUSE I KNOW THERE'S SOME SENIORS THAT I WILL TALK TO IN A LITTLE BIT.

YOUR DEFENSE WAS STOUT.

YOU GAVE UP, I THINK, ALMOST HALF YOUR POINTS THROUGH WEEK THREE AND YOU CLAMPED DOWN, IT WAS SIX SHUT OUTS, SPEAKS A LOT TO WHAT YOU WERE ABLE TO DO.

>> NO DOUBT.

SO PROUD.

IT'S EVERYTHING.

DEFENSE PLAYED SO GOOD.

DEFENSIVE STAFF DID A GREAT JOB GETTING THE KIDS LINED UP, WHERE TO BE.

OUR CHALLENGE THIS WEEK, EVERYBODY WAS SAYING WE COULDN'T STOP THE RUN, WE WEREN'T PHYSICAL, WE SHOWED DIFFERENT TONIGHT.

>> WHAT ABOUT THIS GROUP OF SENIORS, I KNOW 21 AND 12 TALK ABOUT OVERTURES WHAT ABOUT THE SENIORS.

>> GOING TO GO DOWN AS MAYBE ONE OF THE GREATEST TEAMS EVER TO PLAY THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

>> WANT TO GIVE US THAT CHEER TO COLLINS HILL FAITHFUL.

>> IT'S A GREAT DAY TO BE A EAGLE.

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] >> CONGRATULATIONS.

>> THANK YOU.

>> WE'LL CATCH UP MORE IN JUST A LITTLE BIT IF WE CAN MAKE IT OUT ALIVE.

>> ALL RIGHT.

YOU LOVE TO SEE THE EMOTION FROM LENNY GREGORY.

YOU KNOW WE HAVE TALKED TO LENNY GREGORY SEVERAL TIMES, DURING THE COURSE OF THE SEASON, THE LAST TWO SEASONS, AND HE HAS JUST, YOU KNOW, HE'S NOT A BIG, EMOTIONAL GUY AND TO SEE HIM FINALLY UNLEASH IT HERE IS HUGE.

>> LOOKS LIKE HE WAS RUNNING THROUGH THOSE OLD TIRE DRILLS WITH LENNY GREGORY, BUT YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THE EMOTION, HE KNEW HE HAD THE TALENT TO BRING THIS HOME, THE TALENT IS NOT ALWAYS WHAT BRINGS THE CHAMPIONSHIP, THE MINDSET THAT HE BROUGHT TO THIS TEAM, TO DRIVE THEM TO TAKING HOME THE TROPHY.

>> WOW.

24A.

COLLINS HILL DEFEATS MILTON AND WINS THE 7A STATE TITLE COMPLETING A 15-0 SEASON.

AND THAT IS JUST SO HARD TO DO.

AND THE WAY THEY DID IT, IN DOMINATING FASHION.

AGAINST SOME OF THE BEST HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL COMPETITION IN ENTIRE NATION.

REALLY STANDS OUT.

YOU CAN SEE THE PRIDE THAT WAS SHINING THROUGH WITH LENNY GREGORY RIGHT THERE.

AND WHAT HIS TEAM WAS ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH THIS SEASON AFTER BEING ONE WIN SHORT LAST YEAR AGAINST GRAYSON.

TIME NOW TO SEND TO GEORGIA COTTON COMMISSION PLAYER OF THE GAME, SAM HORN.

WE GAVE IT TO TRAVIS HUNTER LAST TIME.

GOING TO GIVE IT TO SAM HORN THIS TIME.

NELLY TAKE IT AWAY.

>> GEORGIA COTTON COMMISSION PLAYER OF THE GAME.

LAST COUPLE WEEKS WE GOT TO SEE YOUR RUNING GAME.

GOT TO SEE IT COMING OUT OF THE SCRUM GET OVER HERE.

EASIEST QUESTION YOU'LL FACE, HOW'S IT FEEL?

>> YOU DON'T KNOW HOW GOOD, IT FEELS AMAZING, WE WORKED SO HARD, WE WERE JUST LITTLE BOYS PLAYING IN GEORGIA, WE STUCK IT OUT, COACH CAME IN, WE DID WHAT WE HAD TO DO.

CAME OUT ON TOP.

THAT'S WHAT IT'S ABOUT.

>> HOW TOUGH WAS IT BECAUSE OF ALL OF THE CHATTER AND NOISE.

>> IT WAS TOUGH.

WE HAD TO LOCK IN.

WE KNEW IT WOULD BE A TOUGH CHALLENGE NO MATTER WHO WE PLAYED BUT WE LOCKED IN IN THE SECOND HALF AND DID OUR THING.

I'M SO PROUD OF THESE GUYS.

>> LET ME BRING IN THIS GUY.

TRAVIS, SAM YOU STAY, BOTH OF YOU, COME ON, GROUP EFFORT, GROUP EFFORT.

WHAT IS LIKE TO BE ABLE TO SHARE THIS MOMENT, KNOWING EVERYTHING YOU GUYS HAVE DONE TO GET TO THIS POINT, WHAT'S IT LIKE TO SHARE THAT?

>> IT STARTED SOPHOMORE, FRESHMAN YEAR, RUNNING ROUTES AFTER PRACTICE, DOING EVERYTHING, AND AFTER THAT, GO EAT EVERYWHERE, IT FEELS GRIT, MAN, IT TRANSLATES OFF THE FIELD TO ON THE FIELD AND I'M PROUD OF THIS GUY.
