♪♪ >>> HEY Y'ALL, HAPPY THURSDAY.

WELCOME INTO COUNTDOWN TO KICKOFF.

THANKS FOR JOINING US.

IT IS THE SECOND ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS.

WE HAD 225 TEAMS -- >> 255.

>> OH, EXCUSE ME, 255 TEAMS LAST FRIDAY.

NOW WE HAVE 128 TEAMS COMPETING.

AND THEN WE'LL GET IN IT DOWN TO 64.

SO EXCITED.

YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE SECOND ROUND.

>> WELL, I'VE HEARD THAT WE HAVE 128 TEAMS DOWN FROM 255.

NO, IT HAS BEEN FUN BECAUSE EVE GOTTEN FIRST ROUND MATCH-UPS WHERE TEAMS HAVEN'T WON IN THE FIRST TIME IN A LONG TIME.

WHO TEAMS HADN'T WON IN OVER 40 YEARS.

YOU HAD A TEAM WHO HADN'T WON SINCE 1991.

AND THEN A COUPLE FIRST TIMERS THAT MADE THEIR WAY INTO A SECOND ROUND.

SO THIS IS A FUN TIME OF THE YEAR AFTER YOU'VE GONE FROM NORTH OF 400 DOWN TO 256, BUT THIS YEAR WE HAD 255 BECAUSE OF THE BYE IN SINGLE A. LINCOLN COUNTY GOT TO WATCH THE REST OF US.

AND SO WHO MAKES IT OUT OF THE SWEET 16 IN EACH CLASS, THAT IS WHAT WE'RE HERE TO TALK ABOUT TODAY.

>> NEVER SAID THERE WOULD BE MATH ON THIS SHOW.

>> THERE IS ALWAYS MATH.

>> AND WE'LL BREAK IT ALL DOWN ON BRACKETOLOGY COMING UP.

BUT FIRST LET US KNOW WHAT Y'ALL ARE HAVING FOR LUNCH.

WE'LL HAVE OUR USUALLY PROBABLY JIMMY JOHN'S TODAY.

>> EXACTLY.

>> AND WHAT IS UP, GUYS?

MICHAEL, THIS IS -- >> BY THE WAY, LOVED YOUR STICKER.

>> YEAH, AND I HAVE TO FIND A SPECIAL PLACE FOR IT.

MADE ME DAY.

AND MICHAEL SAYS I HOPE THE TWINS ARE DOING FINE.

MICHAEL, I'M RUNNING ON LITTLE SLEEP, SO STICK WITH ME.

BUT WE'RE ALL ALIVE.

HE'S HAVING CHICKEN NUGGETS AND A STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE.

AND WE HAVE ROSS, CHARLES, CHRIS, JUSTIN, KYLE.

LET'S GET THINGS ROLLING.

AND LET US KNOW WHAT IS FOR LUNCH AND KEEP YOUR COMMENTS ROLLING IN.

LET'S GET TO IT, WE'LL TAKE A LOOK BACK AT THE FIRST ROUND.

RAIDERS 14-10 AT HALFTIME, BUT TWO SECOND HALF TDs FOR THE LEAD AND HELD ON WINNING IT 24-21 WITH ITS EIGHTH WIN OF THE SEASON WHICH IS THE FIRST TIME THEY HAVE REACHED THAT MARK SINCE 2005.

>> I WAS HAVING FLASHBACKS OF BRUCE MILLER BEING HEAD COACH.

AND KARL MADOWS THEIR STAR QUARTERBACK.

AND THERE IS YOUR BLOCKING SCORE THERE ON SPECIAL TEAMS.

PART OF THE OUTBURST NO NORTH VERSAILLES.

AND WENT TO EAST TENNESSEE STATE.

I THINK FIRST TIME IN THE PLAYOFFS SINCE 2019.

AND WHEN YOU ESCAPE A TACKLE AND YOU RUN A AWAY FROM THE CAMERA, THAT MEANS ONE THING, TOUCHDOWN.

BUT IT WAS GREAT TO BE UP ON TOLL MOUNTAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER.

SO BIG WIN FOR THEM AS THEY MAKE IT TO THE ROUND OF 128.

>> AND PLAYER OF THE GAME WAS WES ROBERTS, HE PASSED FOR TWO TDs AND THEIR RUNNING BACK ALSO HAD A HUGE GAME.

SO THEY ADVANCE.

AND WE'LL LOOK AT THAT GAME IN A LITTLE BIT.

BUT FIRST, WE ALSO HAVE TO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON OUR GIRLS.

TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE GIRLS LAST WEEK.

A DOUBLEHEADER AT GRIFFEN MEMORIAL STADIUM.

THIS FIRST GAME, 24-0.

>> AND YOU HAD PIKE COUNTY WORKING THE END AROUND AND HALF BACK OPTION, BUT THEN -- >> LOOK AT THOSE MOVES.

>> THERE YOU GO.

YOU GET IT TO THE HALFWAY POINT, COUNTY HAD THE LEAD AND THROW IT AGAIN, SO GREAT TO BE IN THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE ATLANTA METRO TO SEE SOME OF THE NEWER TEAMS WORKING THEIR WAY INTO THE AUTHORITY OF 200 PLAYING FLAG FOOTBALL.

BIG WIN FOR PIKE COUNTY.

>> AND GAME NUMBER TWO WAS EAGLES CHRISTIAN ACADEMY, THEY BEAT SPAULDING 20-0.

AND WHAT IS SO FUN ABOUT WATCHING THE HIGHLIGHTS, THEY ARE NOW SHOWING GIRL FRAG FOOTBALL HIGHLIGHTS ON ESPN AND IT IS MY FAVORITE THING EVERY.

>> WHEN YOU HAVE THE ATHLETICISM THAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO SHOW,AG FOOTBALL HIGHLIGHTS ON ESPN AND IT IS MY FAVORITE THING EVERY.

>> WHEN YOU HAVE THE ATHLETICISM THAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO SHOW,LAG FOOTBALL HIGHLIGHTS ON ESPN AND IT IS MY FAVORITE THING EVERY.

>> WHEN YOU HAVE THE ATHLETICISM THAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO SHOW, AND IT HAS BEEN REALLY COOL FOR US TO BE ABLE TO SHOW FLAG FOOTBALL AND KIND OF BE AT THE FOREFRONT OF MAKING IT PART OF JUST OUR NORMAL PROGRAMMING GRID HERE.

>> AND HERE IS THE GAMES TONIGHT, WE HAVE TRIPLE HEADER IN SHARPSBURG.

5:45, AND TRINITY IS AT 6:45.

AND ALSO NORTH SIDE COLUMBUS IS AT 7:45.

AND AFTER THIS, NEXT UP IS PLAYOFFS FOR GIRLS FLAG.

I DON'T THINK THAT WE'LL BE BREAKING DOWN BRACKETS OF THE GIRLS YET.

>> BUT THE THING IS ABOUT THE PLAYOFFS FOR FLAG FOOTBALL, THEY LITERALLY WILL HAVE TWO ROUNDS ONE DAY AT THE SITE.

THEY WILL JUST KNOCK IT OUT.

THEY WILL FLY THROUGH THE WHOLE THING.

AND WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO SHOW THIS YEAR AND SOME OF THE TEAMS THAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO SHOW CONTINUING TO ROLL.

I THINK THAT THEY STARTED OUT 12-0.

AND YOU ARE LOOKING FOR ALL THE NEW FACES THAT WE'RE SEEING.

>> AND TIME FOR PLAY OF THE WEEK FOR THE BOYS.

AND WE SEE JALEN KILGORE DOING THIS.

>> I THINK I COUNTED FIVE DODGED TACKLES.

SO ONE, TWO, STEP, THREE, STEP BACK FOUR, FIVE, SIX -- SORRY, SEVEN.

I WAS MISTAKEN.

HE HAD SEVEN DODGED TACKLES IN THEIR FIRST ROUND WIN.

>> AND THEY ADVANCE IN THE AA PLAYOFFS.

AND STICK WITH US, COMING UP ON THE SHOW, WE'RE GOING TO TURN THE PAGE, WE'LL GO THROUGH ALL OF THE BRACKETS AND WE'VE GOT OUR TICKER AT THE END.

BUT FOR NOW, I'LL JUMP INTO THE COMMENTS SECTION WHICH I HAVE NOT BEEN FOLLOWING AS CLOSELY AS I NORMALLY DO.

SO LET'S GO IN COLD HERE.

Y'ALL KNOW IT IS BAKED CHICKEN AND RICE FOR ME.

>> MY HUSBAND EATS THE SAME THING EVERY DAY.

>> AND IF IT WORKS, YOU STICK WITH IT.

THAT IS HOW IT GOES.

IT IS ALL ABOUT THE RITUAL.

>> AND JUSTIN, A GREAT COMMENT AND I DID NOT HAVE THIS ON THE RUNDOWN, SO THANK YOU FOR BRINGING IT UP, HOW ABOUT THE QUICK COACHING CHANGE.

>> YEAH, AT THE END OF THE YEAR WHEN YOU LOSE ALL THOSE GAMES IN REGION PLAY AND YOU HAVE THE START THAT YOU DO, YOU HAD THE GAME ON FOOTBALL FRIDAYS AND YOU FINISH AS A FOUR AND THEN LOSE IN THE FIRST ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS.

AND WE ALL KNOW THE EXPECTATIONS FOR A LOT OF PROGRAMS.

AND THERE IS NO DIFFERENT.

IT WILL BE INTERESTING NOW AFTER ONE SEASON WITH ZACK NOW GONE WHERE DO THEY GO FOR THEIR NEXT HEAD COACH.

IT WILL BE ONE OF THE JOBS I THINK THAT WILL BE THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER IN THE SOUTHEAST.

BUT I WANT TO KNOW NOW, AND THEY ARE ALREADY TAKING CONFIDENTIAL INQUIRIES WHEN IT COMES TO THE SUCCESSOR, BUT I WANT TO KNOW WHO IS INTERESTED AND WHO DIRECTION THEY GO NEXT.

DONE AFTER ONE SEASON IN ONE OF THE TOUGHEST REGIONS IN THE COUNTRY, AND ZACK OUT JUST AFTER ONE SEASON.

>> AND REPRESENTING PIERCE COUNTY, NELSON SAYS HELLO FROM ATLANTA.

THOMAS COUNTY CENTRAL.

GRILLED CHICKEN, BROCCOLI AND MASHED POTATOES.

>> NOTHING GREEN FOR ME.

>> AND ONE MORE, TWO HIGH POWERED OFFENSES GOING AT IT IN ROUND TWO.

>> I THINK THAT THE GAME STILL MIGHT BE GOING ON BY THE TIME WE COME BACK NEXT WEEK.

WE'LL BE SEEING WITH JASON KERWIN WHO IS PART OF THE ALABAMA COACHING TREE, HE CAME OVER.

AND WHEN YOU HAVE THE BIG LINEMEN THAT YOU HAVE, AND YOU CAN PROTECT YOUR QUARTERBACK AND HE CAN RUN THE FOOTBALL, YOU WILL PUT UP A LOT OF POINTS LIKE WE'VE SEEN FROM THEM THIS YEAR.

GREAT TO SEE THEM IN THE SECOND ROUND AND JOHN REED JUST ONCE AGAIN WORKS ITS WAY THROUGH.

IT MIGHT BE QUIET BECAUSE IT IS UP IN NORTHWEST GEORGIA, BUT THIS TIME OF YEAR WE ALWAYS ANTICIPATE SEEING JOHN REED WORKING THEIR WAY THROUGH THE SCHEDULE.

IT WILL BE A TOUGH TEST.

THE OTHER TWO HIGH POWERED OFFENSES, BUT I THINK ROME'S DEFENSE CAN ANSWER WHAT WE'VE SEEN THIS YEAR.

SO I THINK INSTEAD OF IT BEING THE TWO OFFENSES TRYING TO SPRINT TO THE FINISH LINE AFTER 48 MINUTES, I THINK IT WILL BE THEIR OFFENSE AGAINST ROME'S DEFENSE.

>> AND SO NOW WE'LL TURN THE PAGE, SECOND ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS, THE WEEK THAT IS CURRENTLY, AND OUR MATCH-UP IS A 7 A 1.

IT IS BETWEEN NORTH COBB.

>> AND A LOT OF PEOPLE THINK THIS ONE SHOULD BE HAPPENING A COUPLE WEEKENDS FROM NOW.

BUT WHEN YOU LOSE A REGION GAME AND YOU ARE A TWO SEED AS WE SAW ON FOOTBALL FRIDAY, YOU WILL ROAD AFTER THAT FIRST ROUND HOME GAME.

NORTH COBB, WE'VE SEEN THEM ON FOOTBALL FRIDAYS, MILL CREEK WE'VE SEEN THEM DEVELOP.

AND SO MILL CREEK, A HEAVYWEIGHT BATTLE IN ROUND NUMBER TWO.

IT IS NOT THE ONLY CLASS THAT HAS A HEAVYWEIGHT BATTLE, BUT IN 7-A, A LOT OF EYES ON NORTH COBB.

>> AND I LOVE HIS LINE, LET'S GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT.

>> LET'S GO UPPER LEFT, WE'LL SHOW YOU WHAT IS GOING ON IN THE BRACK PUSH.

WHEELER AND LAMBERT.

AND LET'S SHOW YOU WHAT IS GOING ON WITH BUFORD, IT MUST BE A TOUGH CHALLENGE WITH WALTON.

MARIETTA, WE KNOW THAT YOU ARE KEEPING AN EYE ON THAT ONE.

BUT YOU HAVE TO GO TAKE ON THE CARROLLTON TROJANS.

UPPER RIGHT, WEST LAKE ADVANCES, AND INTERESTING MATCHUP WITH PARKVIEW.

AND THE MATCH-UP ON GPB, NORTH COBB AND MILL CREEK.

AND LOWER RIGHT, CAMDEN AGAINST GRAYSON.

NORCROSS AND MILTON, THAT IS YOUR LOW RIGHT.

SO ONCE AGAIN, SOME HEAVYWEIGHTS HERE IN ROUND TWO.

>> AND SPEAKING OF OUR GAME, JAMAL ANDERSON WAS MY INTERVIEW THIS WEEK.

IF HIS NAME SOUNDS FAMILIAR, IT IS BECAUSE HE IS OFFICIALLY A SECOND.

HIS DAD WAS A RUNNING BACK FOR FALCONS.

AND HE PLAYED AT UTAH.

HE COULDN'T GET HIS SON TO GO TO UTAH.

HE HAS COMMITTED TO CLEMSON.

BUT HE HAD A LOT TO SAY ABOUT THE GAME TOMORROW NIGHT.

>> I'LL BET HE DID.

>> LET'S LISTEN IN.

>> MY KEY TO THE GAME AND TAKEAWAYS I'VE SEEN FROM WATCHING FILM, THREE VERY TALENTED RUNNING BACKS.

SOME OF THEM ARE GOING TO PRETTY BIG COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS ALONG WITH SOME OF MY TEAMMATES.

SO I KNOW WE'LL HAVE TO BE VERY PHYSICAL UP FRONT, STOP THE RUN AND BE STRONG UP IN THE FRONT SEVEN IN THE BOX.

AND THEN OVER TOP DEFENSIVE BACKS WILL HAVE TO PLAY SMART COVERAGE, TRY TO COME DOWNHILL AND GET BEAT OVER TOP, BUT EVERYBODY WILL HAVE TO PLAY TRUE ASSIGNMENT.

THEY HAVE A VERY TALENTED QUARTERBACK ALSO.

SO WE'LL JUST HAVE TO BE KNOWING WHO HAS THE QUARTERBACK, WHO HAS THE RUNNING BACK AND PLAY TRUE ASSIGNMENT FOOTBALL.

>> AND HE IS READY FOR COLLEGE.

HE IS READY FOR CLEMSON.

SPECIAL KID, I'M EXCITED TO WATCH HIM PLAY TOMORROW NIGHT.

DON'T MISS THE ENTIRE INTERVIEW BEFORE OUR BROADCAST.

TIME TO MOVE ON TO 6-A.

>> AND LET'S SHOW YOU WHAT IS GOING ON WITH OUR BRACKETS.

THIS WILL BE AN INTERESTING TEST.

AND ST. PIUS IS GOING UP AGAINST THOMAS COUNTY CENTRAL.

AND LOW LEFT, GAINESVILLE ONE OF THE SNEAKIEST TEAMS JUST BECAUSE OF WHERE THEY ARE.

NO MEDIA MARKET UP IN NORTHEAST GEORGIA AGAINST IN GAINESVILLE.

THEY HAVE QUIETLY GONE ABOUT THEIR BUSINESS.

AND NORTH ATLANTA, THEY KNOCK OFF LOVEJOY, BUT THEY GET TO HOST BECAUSE IN THAT 1-4 THAT WE KNEW WASN'T A 1-4, HOUSTON COUNTY HAS TO TRAVEL NORTH TO NORTH ATLANTA.

UPPER RIGHT, LEE COUNTY HAS TO TRAVEL TO TAKE ON WOODWARD.

AND NORTH FORSYTHE GETS HUGHES, A TALL ORDER.

WE'LL GET TO THAT IN A SECOND.

THIS IS KIND OF LIKE LAST SEASON, IS THIS A REPEAT OF LAST SEASON WHERE YOU ARE GETTING HOT AT THE SAME TIME AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENS.

>> BUT REMEMBER YOU LOST COACHES INCLUDING JEREMY EDWARDS.

SO WARREN ROBBINS BRINGING IN THE COACHES.

EVERYBODY NEEDS TO GET ON THE SAME PAGE AND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHO YOUR STARTING QUARTERBACK WAS.

SO YEAH, WE TALKED ABOUT REGION PLAY.

SEASON TWO IS WHERE YOU MAKE YOUR HAY.

AND WARNER ROBBINS IS GETTING THE FULL SONG AT THE RIGHT TIME OF YEAR FOR THEM AS THEY MAKE ANOTHER DEEP RUN.
