WITHOUT GEORGIA THEY DIDN'T EVEN DRIVE UP UNTIL THIS MORNING.

THAT'S A FOUR AND A HALF HOUR.

200 MILE JOURNEY FROM SOUTH GEORGIA TO THE BIG CITY.

THEY LEFT AT 6 A.M.

THEY MADE A PIT STOP ON 475 WHERE THEY GOT OFF THE BUSES.

THEY DID A LITTLE BIT OF STRETCHING TOOK SOME BATHROOM BREAKS, ATE SOME SANDWICHES, DID A SPECIAL TEAMS CHECK IN THEY GOT HERE WITH PLENTY OF TIME TO SPARE.

I SAW COACH STRICKLAND PREGAME OUT THERE ON THE FIELD.

HE SAID WE'RE READY AND IT'S TIME.

IT'S BEEN SINCE 1948 IN THE PERKINS.

HURRICANES HAVE TAKEN HOME, A STATE TITLE LARRY.

OKAY, NIKKI.

CAN YOU GOTTA STOP THEM THE OTHER SIDE?

AGAIN, PACE ACADEMY, GREAT JOB ON DEFENSE, BUT TAKING THE BALL AWAY, FITZGERALD AREA, WHERE, WHAT THEY DO ON THAT SIDE OF THE BALL.

WE'VE GOT THE COACHES HERE ON THE SIDELINES AS WELL.

THERE'S JASON STRICKLAND.

OH WHAT A JOB HE HAS DONE FOR FITZGERALD IS ARRIVING THERE IN HIS FOURTH SEASON, 21 RIMS ALREADY.

AND OF COURSE, CHRIS SLADE FOR PACE ACADEMY, PACE WON THE TOSS AND THEY DEFERRED THE COOK-OFF.

AND SO WE GOT INTO THE END ZONE AND IT'S A TOUCHBACK RIGHT THERE.

THAT'S MONTRELL HARRIS ON THE RECEPTION.

AND SO WE WILL START FIRST AND TEN FOR THE FITZGERALD AND THERE'S CHRIS SLADE.

WHAT A JOB.

HE HAS DONE HIS THIRD YEAR AS HEAD COACH SCHOOL RECORD.

12 WINS.

THEIR PREVIOUS RECORD WAS NINE WINS BACK IN 2010 AND WHAT A JOB, HE HAS DONE.

WE'LL TALK MORE ABOUT HIM AND HIS INFLUENCE NINE YEARS PLAYING IN THE NFL IN ENGLAND, PATRIOTS, ONE YEAR, THE CAROLINA PANTHERS AND NOW SETTLED HERE IN ATLANTA JUST UP THE ROAD HERE AT PACE ACADEMY AND SOAK.

FIRST OFF.

PURPLE JERSEYS PACE IN THE WHITE AND THEIR STAR QUARTERBACK JAMES GRAHAM.

WHAT A STORY HE HAS BEEN THIS YEAR FOR THE PURPLE HURRICANE DIRECTS THAT RIGHT TO HANDLE TAKING HIMSELF IN THE GREAT DEFENSE RIGHT THERE.

NICE JOB SHOWING OFF THERE BY NUMBER.

55, ANDREW THOMAS AMONG THE GANG TACKLES RIGHT THERE AS WE TAKE OF THE REGION'S BANK LINE UP.

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.

ALONG THE FRONTLINE.

THERE'S SMITH PUMP BIRCH HOME AND HECHAVARRIA FOR THE PURPLE HURRICANE OFFENSIVE LINE IN THE BACKFIELD.

THAT'S CONING THAT WIDE RECEIVER.

HARRIS.

THERE'S JD KING WOULD TALK ABOUT JALEN SHAVERS AND CHRISTINA SMITH.

THE BIG TIGHT END FOR HIM.

SECOND DOWN, RUN RIGHT NOW AND THAT IS KING NOT MUCH DOING.

SO BRING UP A THIRD AND LONG FOR THE PURPLE.

HURRICANE IS A GREAT JOB BY PACE TO STARTING UP THE GAME, YOU KNOW, GETTING STOPS EARLY, GET HIM INTO THIRD AND LONG SITUATION.

WE'LL SEE IF THEY CAN GET OFF THE FIELD HERE ON THIRD DOWN.

GOOD JOB THERE BECAUSE THAT'S WRONG.

WE'VE WATCHED THIS YOUNG MAN JD KING AVERAGE, SEVEN AND A HALF YARDS PER GAME FOR FITZGERALD.

THE WATCHING THIS 3RD AND 8TH RIGHT NOW, THE YOUNG QUARTERBACK JAMES GRAHAM.

FIRST YEAR, AS A STARTER.

AND WE'VE GOT SOME MOVING LOOKS LIKE AS A FLYING DOWN.

IT'S AGAINST MAYBE HE CAN DO RIGHT THERE.

NO, NOW MAKES IT THIRD AND SHORT MORE MANAGEABLE DOWN FOR FITZGERALD.

THEY WANT TO RUN THE FOOTBALL.

THEY LIKE THEY LIKE A BURDEN THIRD AND SHORT THIRD, AND MEDIUM CHANGES THINGS.

NO QUESTION ABOUT IT.

SURPRISINGLY EMPTY BACKFIELD THERE ON AND AN EMPTY BACKFIELD AGAIN.

WE'VE GOT JD KING LINED UP ALONG THE RIGHT EDGE.

WELL, WHAT THEY'RE DOING IS IS KIND OF THE OLD SCHOOL SINGLE WINGS OFFENSE.

THEY'RE GOING TO TRY TO RUN THE BALL WITH THE QUARTER.

HE'S AN OUTSTANDING PLAYER WHO'S A SECOND LEADING RUSHER?

AND HE GET THE STOP RIGHT THERE ON THIRD DOWN VERY QUICKLY, THE PACE ACADEMY DEFENSIVE STARTING LINEUP.

THERE'S HARRIS TREND, WE TALKED ABOUT THOMAS AND THE ORB, ALL ALONG THE FRONT GOOD-SIZED.

THE SENIOR WILL TALK ABOUT HIM, SOMERVILLE PAIN AND DEON JACKSON PLAYS BOTH WAYS NUMBER FOR.

HE'S SOMEONE TO WATCH YOUR FOR PACE.

SO A GOOD STOP HERE ON DEFENSE FOR THE PACE ACADEMY, KNIGHTS BRINGS UP FOURTH.

AND ONE.

GREAT JOB BY PACE, GETTING OFF THE FIELD AND SEE IF THEY CAN GET SOMETHING GOING ON.

OFFENSE, MARIA, MARTINEZ TO PUNT.

WE GOT A FLAG BEFORE HE GETS IT AWAY.

LET'S GET THE CALL PROPHETESS THAT ALL START ON THE OFFENSE, FIVE YARD PENALTY KILL FOR THAT.

SO A FALSE START AGAINST FITZGERALD, KOSHER CLICK PICTURE SPEAKS A THOUSAND WORDS, DOESN'T IT?

YEAH, WE TALKED ABOUT NERVES EARLY IN THE GAME.

AND I THINK HE'S SEEING THAT A LITTLE BIT, YOU KNOW, FIST YOUR OFFENSE, YOU KNOW, TRYING TO GET GOING A LITTLE BIT RIGHT THERE, THEN A LITTLE PENALTY HERE, SO, FIVE-YARD PENALTY, FOURTH AND SIX THIS TIME, HE GETS THEM KICK AWAY WHILE IT'S GOING TO TAKE A PACE ACADEMY BOUNCE SIDEWAYS.

FINALLY.

IT STOPPED THERE AT THE 39 -YARD LINE, 38-YARD PUNT RIGHT THERE FOR OUR MARTINEZ.

AND WE'LL SEE THE PACE ACADEMY OFFENSE COME OUT FOR THE FIRST TIME GOOD SIZED CROWD HERE.

EAGLE'S LANDING, CHRISTIAN ACADEMY, WINNING THE CLASS, 18 PRIVATE CHAMPIONSHIP THE GAME.

BEFORE THIS, TWO MORE OUTSTANDING GAMES COMING UP TO 4A AND 6A TITLE.

GAMES STILL TO COME HERE LATER ON THIS EVENING, FOR GREAT, THREE, GREAT GAMES.

YESTERDAY.

WE SAW LAST NIGHT OF DEFENSIVE STRUGGLE IN THE 58 GAME ALLATOONA.

GETTING THE FIRST EVER FOOTBALL STATE CHAMPIONSHIP FOR SCHOOL.

PUBLIC SCHOOL FROM COBB COUNTY.

WHAT A GAME?

THAT WAS SO FIRST AND TEN RIGHT NOW FOR PACE.

HANDOFF RIGHT HERE.

THAT IS BEYOND JACKSON AND HE IS GOING NOWHERE.

JACKSON STOPS DARIUS HAMPTON ON THE STOP AND WE'LL TAKE A LOOK AT TONIGHT'S ON OFFENSE.

THE FRONT LINE THOMAS SAWYER COLEMAN ELLIOT'S IN HARRIS UPFRONT.

LOT OF SENIORS ON THE RIGHT SIDE RIGHT THERE.

DEON JACKSON THE BACKFIELD, YOUR RECEIVERS BLUNT.

HE'S THE SPEED GUY.

HEMINGWAY, IS YOUR PROFESSION GUY FOR YOUR STARTER SOMERVILLE, AND ADDISON.

AND AGAIN, TAKE A LOOK CHARACTER QUARTERBACK WHO GOT OUR FAULT.

HE'S A SOPHOMORE.

RUNNING PLAY HERE ON SECOND DOWN, ITS JACKSON AGAIN, FIGHTING PER YARD.

HE'S GANG.

TACKLED ARE AFTER A SHORT GAME TO BRING UP THIRD AND LONG FOR THE PACE ACADEMY.

SO BOLT DEFENSE IS RIGHT NOW.

LOOKING REALLY GOOD ON THE FRONT SEVEN, AS WE TAKE A LOOK AT THAT FITZGERALD DEFENSE UP FRONT.

IT'S HAMPTON RANZIE SNEAK PEEK.

AND SAM, THE LINEBACKERS DIED AND THE TO LONDON BROTHERS AND THEN THE BACKFIELD HARPER PERRY RELIFORD AND ROSS.

THEIR DEFENSIVE SECONDARY THAT HE'S PURPLE HURRICANE.

SO RIGHT NOW THIRD AND FIVE GOATS AS WE TAKE A LOOK AT THIS AND THE YOUNG MAN.

ONE DAY, THE QUARTERBACK.

I'M SORRY.

PUMPKIN IS THE CORNER BACK AND FORTH.

JESUS.

IT'S A SOPHOMORE STRUGGLE.

WITH A COACH SAID, HE'S PLAYED WELL IN THE PLAYOFFS.

YEAH, YOU'VE DONE A GREAT JOB JUST MANAGING GAMES AND HE'S GOT GOOD FEET AND HE'S GOT A GOOD ARM RUNNING.

PLAYING SAID, HE'S FIGHTING FOR YARDS AND HE MAY HAVE THE FIRST DOWN RIGHT THERE.

ALL, WHAT A BULL RUN THAT WAS BUY REAL ESTATE, OR THE OTHER STAR RUNNING BACK THAT THERE GEORGE JUST A SOPHOMORE 6 1235.

WHAT?

A GREAT JUST POWER MOVE.

THIS WAS.

YEAH, THEY JUST RAN BASE.

THE OLD-SCHOOL DIVE PLAY DOUBLE TEAM MAN BLOCKING AND JUST KNOCKING THEM OFF THE BALL.

YOU KNOW, I WOULD ASSUME THEY WERE PROBABLY TRYING TO YOU KNOW, GO FOR IT ON FOURTH DOWN.

THEY TRIED TO GET A MANAGEABLE DISTANCE THERE THIRD AND FIVE.

THEY RUN THE DIVE AND END UP GETTING THE FIRST DOWNS.

GOOD JOB.

WE PLAY RIGHT THERE.

SO, EMPTY BACKFIELD NOW.

GOT OUR FAULKNER SOPHOMORE, NUMBER SIX, FIRST DOWN, AND TEN, JUST PAST MIDFIELD, THE HANDOFF, INSTEAD.

THAT'S TWO BLUNTS AROUND ENDS, BUT GREAT JOB RIGHT THERE TO MAKE THE STOP.

NUMBER 30, ANTONIO PERRY.

THE JUNIOR AND LIMITS 12, A SHORT GAME.

YEAH, REALLY GOOD JOB ON THE PERIMETER GETTING OFF BLOCKS AND GETTING TO STOP, TRYING TO GIVE THE BALL TO BLUNT.

HE'S AN EXPLOSIVE PLAYER.

DOES A GREAT JOB WITH THE BALL IN HIS HANDS, BUT YOU CAN SEE NUMBER 30 COMING IN AND SUPPORT AND IN A GOOD JOB, CONTAINING THE PLAY AND GET THEM OUT OF BOUNDS PAIGE.

LOOKING TO AVENGE THAT LOSS LAST YEAR TO FITZGERALD 4921 IN THE QUARTERFINALS OF 2014.

NOW, THEY'RE MEETING AGAIN HERE FOR THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP IN THE GEORGIA DOME IN ATLANTA.

PAST THE 8 MINUTE MARK HERE IN THE FIRST QUARTER THAT'S FALL FROM THE ROLL.

HE'S GOT HIS MAN, COMPLETE FOR A FIRST DOWN AND MORE THAT'S BLUNTS TREY, BLOUNT, THE THIRD, THE BIG PLAYED JUNIOR RECEIVER, AND HE'S GOT THE FIRST DOWN FOR THE KNIGHTS.

IT WAS A GREAT JOB, YOU KNOW, IS SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN TELL TODAY, WORKING ON IN PRACTICE, YOU KNOW, MOST OF THE TIMES COACH, THEY'RE STEALING THEY OPEN A SCRIPT.

THEY GOT THE TWO TIGHT END SET, THE OLD-SCHOOL WAGGLE PLAY AND HIT BLUNT ON THE COMEBACK ON THE OUTSIDE, TO THE EXECUTION.

GO DOES START WITH THAT COACH 10 YARD GAIN RIGHT THERE.

SO IT'S NOW FIRST DOWN ON THE 36 AND PACE MOVING THE BALL, VERY WELL AFTER STOPPING FITZGERALD ON THREE AND OUT ON THEIR FIRST SERIES AT THE 36, THAT'S BLUNT IN MOTION.

AND THAT'S JACKSON.

NICE GAIN RIGHT THERE COACH.

WHAT ARE THEY SEEING ON THE LEFT SIDE RIGHT THERE.

THEY'VE RUN OUT OF ALL.

THE RUNNING PLAYS.

MOST ARE GOING OVER THERE TO THE LEFT, FOLLOWING ALONG.

THEY'RE BLOCKING.

WELL, I'M GONNA TELL YOU RIGHT NOW.

ONE OF THE BEST DEFENSIVE PLAYERS FOR FITZGERALD IS NUMBER 35, DEAREST HAMPTON.

AND I THINK THEY'RE TRYING TO RUN AWAY FROM HIM.

THEY FIND SOME SUCCESS AND I GUESS THEY'RE GOING TO KEEP GOING TO THE OLD HONEY HOLE.

YEAH.

THAT'S RIGHT.

IF IT AIN'T BROKE.

DON'T FIX IT, RIGHT?

THAT'S EXACTLY CORRECT.

FOUR-YARD GAIN.

THEREFORE JACKSON SECOND AND SIX.

NOW CLOCKS STILL RUNNING TRIPLE RECEIVER.

LEFT SIDE, TALK TO PASS.

HE'S GOT HIS MAN COMPLETE THAT'S NEAR A FIRST DOWN OR 15.

TONY ADDISON.

THE SOPHOMORE RECEIVER, AS A GOOD JOB, OPEN FIELD, TACKLE ON THE MINIMIZING THE GAMES IN THAT PLAY RIGHT THERE.

YOU SET UP A DIRT AND SHORT AS YOU GIVE YOURSELF AN OPPORTUNITY, SEE IF THEY'RE GOING TO MEASURE IT.

IT IS AND THEY GAVE HIM THE FIRST FIRST DOWN AND GIVE IT TO HIM.

OKAY.

SO A SIX-YARD GAIN DOES A GREAT JOB IS DUE TO MY PAGE STARTING OFF THE GAME.

THEY'RE MIXING IT IN TO RUN THE PASS.

MOVING THE BALL DOWN THE DOWN, THE FIELD.

IT'S A GREAT JOB.

THIS IS GREAT GAME PLANNING TO START THE GAME OFF.

NO, SHARP LIKE THIS ON OFFENSE, AND THEY SHOWED ME OTHER MIXING, THINGS UP AND FALK RIGHT NOW, FOR A SOFTWARE SHOWING, NICE POISED FOR YOUNG PLAYER.

AND WE'VE GOT A TIMEOUT ON THE FIELD CALLED BY.

HEY, SO THE FIRST TIME OUT OF THE GAME, 649 TO GO HERE IN THE FIRST QUARTER.

WE'RE GOING TO TAKE A BREAK AS WELL AS CHRIS SLADE CALLED HIS GUYS TOGETHER AND SEE IF THEY CAN FINISH OFF THIS DRIVE WITH A SCORE EARLY ON HERE, THE CLASS TO A GAME OR PACKING THEM ALL.

IT'S NO SCORE.

FITZGERALD AND PACE ACADEMY.

GHSA CHAMPIONSHIP IS MADE POSSIBLE IN PART.

IT'S TIME TO EXPECT MORE GEORGE'S, ELECTRIC MEMBERSHIP CORPORATION LIGHTING AWAY, TECHNICAL COLLEGE SYSTEM OF GEORGIA.

I'LL HAVE THE BIG DEFENSIVE EFFORT RIGHT THERE BY BUCK LUNDY.

THE SENIOR.

YEAH, THE GOOD JOB.

FITZGERALD STOP.

THAT THEY ACTUALLY WENT TO A LITTLE BIT OF A, YOU KNOW, WILDCAT FORMATION AND THEY PUT JACKSON IN THE SHOTGUN AND MOTION FALCONER AT RECEIVER.

BUT FITZGERALD WAS NOT FOOLED BY EVERYBODY STAYED AT HOME.

DID A GOOD JOB EXECUTE ON DEFENSE COACH STRICKLAND TALK ABOUT IT AT.

OUR GUYS ARE ALL SHORT AND SCRAPPY AND LUNDY'S THAT HE'S 57 ABOUT 220, BUT BOY, HE'S LAZY AS BIG AS ANYBODY.

YEAH, THE WHOLE TEAM IS PRETTY STRONG, VERY STRONG AND THEY GET AFTER THE SECOND DOWN PLAY NOW.

BIG LONG WHO CAN'T STOP HIM.

THAT'S JACKSON.

I'M SORRY.

MAKE THAT REALITY GEORGE BIG.

NUMBER TWO.

YOU SHOULD KNOW.

HE HAS A BIG BOY 612.

35 HARD TO BRING DOWN.

YEAH, PACE DEFINITELY HAS A SIZE ADVANTAGE.

BIG STRONG PHYSICAL, GUYS.

THEY GOT A LOT OF GUYS OVER 6 FEET TALL AGAIN.

FITZGERALD DOESN'T HAVE THE SIZE.

THEY HAVE THE HEART AND THE PHYSICAL TOUGHNESS TO MAKE THIS COMPETITIVE GAME.

WELL, GEORGE IS SO BIG.

YOU CAN'T ARM TACKLE HIM.

HE BROKE TO ARM TACKLES RIGHT THERE.

IT'S IMPOSSIBLE.

BRING THEM DOWN THIRD DOWN.

RIGHT NOW, INSIDE SIX-MINUTE SPACE, ON THE DRIVE, IN THEIR OPENING SERIES.

THAT'S FALL FROM THE ROLLOUT LOOKING DOWNFIELD.

IT'S CAUGHT AND IT'S A CATCH.

WHAT A GREAT CATCH RIGHT THERE BY SPENCER.

HEMINGWAY.

THE FOUR-YEAR STARTER AT WIDE RECEIVER.

IT'S ANOTHER FIRST DOWN FOR PACE ACADEMY.

THE WE'VE GOT A FLAG ON THE PLAY.

IT ISN'T GOING TO COME BACK.

YEAH.

IT'S A GOOD JOB, MY FAULT.

GETTING ON THE PERIMETER.

WENT WITH THIS PRINTOUT, HAD TO COME BACK IN A CORNER OUT.

HIT THE COME BACK.

NO, GREAT DELIVERY.

UNFORTUNATELY GOT A HOLDING.

CALL ME, BRING IT BACK.

BACK TO PLAY RIGHT THERE.

ONE OF THE FIRST MISTAKES MADE BY PAINTS 10-YARD WALK OFF AND SO WILL REPEAT SECOND DOWN THE CORRECTION BE THIRD DOWN.

YEAH.

THAT WAS A HINGE MOANING.

YES, A HUGE MOMENTUM STOPPED RIGHT THERE AND YOU KNOW GAY FISH JERRY A LITTLE HELP.

HOPEFULLY CAN GET OFF THE FIELD RIGHT HERE.

YEAH, YOU'RE DOWN FIRST DOWN INSIDE THE 20, INSTEAD YOUR BACK HERE AT THIRD AND FOREVER TO GET A FIRST DOWN THIRD AND 20 RIGHT NOW.

FALL TO THAT'S THE GUY.

HE WANTS BREAKING A TACKLE, STILL ON HIS FEET, GETS A LOT OF THE BACK OUT OF THE 24.

THAT'S A 12 YARD PICKUP AND IT STILL WON'T BE ENOUGH.

BRINGS ON FOURTH AND EIGHT RIGHT NOW AND ON COMES TO KICK TEAM FOR PACE ACADEMY.

YEAH, UNFORTUNATELY, YOU KNOW, COULDN'T GET MORE OUT OF THAT, GREAT JOB BY FITZGERALD RALLYING, YOU KNOW, THE HOLDING CALL, YOU KNOW, HELP THEM OUT THERE.

AND THEN THEY MADE, THEY DID A GOOD JOB EXECUTING ON THE SCREENPLAY.

SO FORTH DOWN THERE, YOU JUST SAID NICE JOB.

BY THE PURPLE HURRICANE.

THAT BRINGS UP SAMUEL SLOMAN THE KICKER.

AND HE WILL TRY A 41-YARD FIELD GOAL.

HE, THIS IS WITHIN HIS RANGE.

28 FIELD GOALS ON THE SEASON, THE KICK IS UP AND AWAY AND IT IS NO GOOD.

SLOMAN CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

YEAH, USUALLY KICKER, SOME PLEASANT, AND THEY KIND OF KNOW, THEY DON'T KNOW.

THAT'S WHAT A GREAT REACTION.

GREAT WORK FOR HER CAMERA CREW.

ONE MORE.

LOOK AT THIS.

IT'S AN AWAY.

AND IT IS WIDE LEFT.

HAD GREAT DISTANCE.

YOU HAVE PLENTY OF LOOT.

YEAH.

WHAT'S A GOOD JOB OF FITZGERALD, COMING UP, COMING UP WITH A STOP.

I THINK PACE COULD ALSO FEEL GOOD ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE ABLE TO DO ALL FENSIVELY, YOU KNOW, I THINK BOTH TEAMS CAN TAKE SOMETHING POSITIVE OUT OF THAT DRIVE.

NO QUESTION 11-PLAY DRIVE RIGHT THERE, STALLED, SO THEY COME UP WITH NO POINTS.

STILL NO SCORE.

NOW.

IT'S A PURPLE HURRICANE ON OFFENSE AND GET THE BALL INTO THE HANDS OF THEIR STAR PLAYER.

IS THAT JD KING?

NO, NUMBER 13, JALEN SHAVERS AT RUNNING BACK, 13 AND 18.

LOOK PRETTY SIMILAR.

WE'VE NOT SEEN MUCH FROM KING, ONLY 11 CARRY SO FAR HERE, BUT A NICE PICKUP 7-YARD GAIN, MAKES IT SECOND AND THREE NOW IS FITZGERALD ON THE WAY ON THEIR SECOND OFFENSIVE SERIES.

YEAH, I'M SURE THEY'RE GOING TO FIND A WAY TO GET JD KING THE BALL HERE, BEFORE LONG G TO DO THAT.

RUN RIGHT UP THE MIDDLE.

SHORT OF A FIRST DOWN THAT'S KING LINING UP IN THE BACKFIELD GAIN OF ABOUT TWO BRINGS UP THIRD AND A LONG ONE RIGHT NOW FOR FITZGERALD 13 AND 1 ON THE SEASON.

THEIR LONE LOSS WAS TO REGION RIVAL, BROOKS COUNTY BACK IN THE SEVENTH GAME OF THE SEASON.

THEY HAVEN'T LOST SINCE HAVE BEEN DOMINANT THROUGHOUT THE PLAYOFFS.

THIRD, AND ONE RIGHT NOW.

LOOKING TO GET IT TO KING.

AGAIN ARE ON THE OUTSIDE, BUT A GREAT PLAY DEFENSIVELY RIGHT THERE TO STOP HIM THAT HIS MARK SOMERVILLE ON THE STOP.

A JUNIOR QUARTERBACK AND WHAT A BIG DEFENSIVE PLAY THERE FOR PACE ACADEMY TO STOP FITZGERALD ON THIRD AND ONE AND IT WILL FORCE THE PURPLE HURRICANE TO PUNT.

WELL, LOOKS LIKE THEY GOING TO GO FOR AND THEY MAKE O FLAME.

I JUST TRY TO DRAW THEM OFF SIZE RIGHT HERE.

PACE HAS DONE A GOOD JOB STOPPING THE RUN SO FAR.

SO WE'LL SEE WHAT FITZGERALD'S GOT ROLLED UP TO SLEEP.

SO THEY'RE GOING FORWARD AS APPEARS ON 4TH AND 3.

AS YOU SAID, TRYING TO CALL THEM OFF AND THAT'S WHAT GOT THEM THERE DOING COACH.

YEAH, JESSE, THAT'S THAT'S THE COACHING.

YOU, YOU KNOW WHAT?

THERE'S NO YOU'RE NOT GONNA GO FOR IT INSIDE YOUR OWN 30 IN THE FIRST QUARTER.

YEAH.

YEAH.

YEAH, NOT THIS EARLY IN THE GAME.

SO WHERE IN THE WORLD IS OUR WOOKIE OF THE YEAR?

IT IS THAT LIKE COORDINATES ARE ON THE SCREEN RIGHT NOW.

DECODE THEM AND TWEET US YOUR ANSWER AT GPB SPORTS.

HASHTAG CHEWY UNLEASHED.

IF YOU'RE THE FIRST ONE WITH THE RIGHT ANSWER, YOU WIN AN IPAD MINI AND WHAT THAT BE SURE TO INCLUDE YOUR CITY AND COUNTRY BY THE WAY, BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT SOME OF YOU ARE WATCHING OVERSEAS LAST WEEK IN THE SEMIFINAL GAME.

WE HAD THIS SOME VIEWERS FROM CHINA TWEETING AT US.

SO THERE IT IS.

MEET YOUR ANSWER.

GPB SPORTS.

HASHTAG CHEWY.

UNLEASHED.

MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU.

AS YOU DECODE THAT WELL, SO FAR, SO GOOD.

WHAT A GREAT DEFENSIVE GAME.

IT'S BEEN TO THIS POINT FOR PACE, COUPLE OF THREE AND OUTS TO SHUT DOWN.

THIS COULD SHOW OFF ITS IT HAS BEEN SO POTENT THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, BUT ESPECIALLY HERE IN THE POSTSEASON.

YEAH PACE HAS DONE A GOOD JOB.

THEY'RE WELL-PREPARED DEFENSIVELY FOR WHAT THEY'RE SEEING FROM FISH JUROR EARLY IN THE GAME.

SO WE'LL SEE HOW IT GOES.

GET US OUT FOR THE SHORT PUNT THAT'S GOING TO FALL.

AND AGAIN, TAKES A SLIGHT BOUNCE IN FAVOR OF FITZGERALD, BUT IT WILL PAINT BE PACE AGAIN WITH GREAT FIELD POSITION.

NEAR MIDFIELD AND ABOUT THEIR 48-YARD LINE IS WHERE THEY WILL START THEIR SECOND OFFENSIVE SERIES RIGHT NOW.

25 YARD PUNT.

THAT'S ALL THAT THEY CAN MANAGE BY RAUL MARTINEZ RIGHT THERE.

SO PACE ACADEMY MENTIONED 12 AND 2.

THEY LOST BACK-TO-BACK GAMES THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SEASON.

BUT AGAIN JUST THEIR EIGHTIES AND PLAYING FOOTBALL THEIR BEST SEASON EVER.

THEY BEAT GAC IN THE SEMIFINALS AVENGING, AN EARLIER LOSS DURING THE SEASON BEGIN.

JUST THE THIRD PLAYOFF APPEARANCE IN SCHOOL HISTORY.

WHAT A GREAT JOB.

THEY'VE DONE UNDER COACH, CHRIS SLADE BACK-TO-BACK PLAYOFF APPEARANCES LAST YEAR.

AND AGAIN, THIS YEAR HERE IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME IS ON FIRST DOWN THAT IS JACKSON WITH THE CARRY.

THERE'S ONE THING ABOUT PASTE.

IT REALLY WENT IN FIRST DOWN AND GETTING THEMSELVES IN SHORT, YARDAGE SITUATIONS.

THERE'S A HUGE CHUNKS OF YARDS ON FIRST DOWN IS MAKING IT EASY FOR THEM TO CALL PLAYS DOWN THE STRETCH.

FITZGERALD GOT TO FIND A WAY TO WIN FIRST DOWN AND GET A STOP A SHORT GAIN OR NEGATIVE YARDAGE PLAY.

DO A NICE JOB OF SWITCHING PERSONNEL IN AND OUT REALLY CHANGING UP THE GAME.

A LOT OF DIFFERENT LOOKS.

WE'VE SEEN ALREADY HERE IN THE FIRST QUARTER, 225 AND COUNTING FALK NOW TO PASS.

HE'S GOT HIS MAN.

THAT'S BLUNT.

GREAT TACKLE, THE OPEN FIELD TO SAVE A POTENTIAL TOUCHDOWN BY ANTONIO.

HAVE FITZGERALD.

BUT BEFORE THAT STILL THE FIRST TOWN FALK TO BLUNT ON THE RECEPTION.

IF BULK IS DOING A GREAT JOB AND HE'S VERY, HE'S GOT GREAT COMPOSURE, VERY POLICE, YOU KNOW, SETS HIS FEET ROCKING THROAT.

GREAT JOB CONNECTED WITH BLUNT.

WHO'S AN OUTSTANDING TARGET.

IT'S GOT A HUGE CATCH RADIUS.

HE DOESN'T DROP MANY BALLS.

HE'S AN EXPLOSIVE PLAYER.

FITZGERALD, MIGHT HAVE TO DO A GOOD JOB ON HIM ALL NIGHT.

FIRST AND TEN.

NOW 35, ONCE AGAIN, PAINTS IS ON THE MOVE ALREADY FOUR FIRST DOWNS IN THE GAME HAND OFF TO JACKSON.

AGAIN THE LEFT.

OUTSIDE.

AND HE'S GOT A WHOLE TO THE 20 TO THE 15.

AND 10 ONE MAN TO BEAT.

IS HE IN FOR THE TOUCHDOWN?

YES, DEON JACKSON THE TOUCHDOWN FOR PACE AND THE NIGHTS ARE BASIC.

ENEMY STRIKE.

FIRST BLOOD HERE IN THE GEORGIA DOME.

WELL, WE TALKED ABOUT IT BEFORE THE GAME.

DEON JACKSON IS AS EXPLOSIVE PLAYER AS THERE IS IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

HE'S A HOME RUN GUY.

HE'S GOT GREAT FEET AND WHEN HE SEES DAYLIGHT, HE KNOWS HOW TO HIT PAY DIRT, GREAT JOB RUNNING AWAY FROM GUYS, AND REACHING THE BALL OVER AND GET INTO THE PILE ON.

WELL, IT'S NO REPLAY IN HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL.

BUT AS YOU SAW ON THE REPLAY THERE, HE ACTUALLY STEPPED OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE TO BUT AGAIN THE OFFICIAL THERE ON THE GOAL LINE WAS KNOCKED DOWN BY ANOTHER PLAYER.

SO HE DIDN'T SEE THAT.

JUST SAW THE BALL GO OVER THE END ZONE LINE.

AND SO THEREFORE IT IS A TOUCHDOWN, THE RULING ON THE FIELD, THE EXTRA POINT RIGHT THERE IS GOOD.

AND SO WE HAVE GOT OUR FIRST SCORE OF THIS GAME.

A 35-YARD RUN BY DEON JACKSON ONE MORE.

LOOK AT IT RIGHT HERE.

YOU CAN SEE HIM.

YOU CAN SEE HIM RUNNING HARD.

MAKING IT CUT.

HE DID STEP OUT THERE, BUT, YOU KNOW, THE THE THE THE OFFICIAL REWARDED IS EFFORT.

WHAT GREAT SPEED RIGHT THERE BY JACKSON, AND A GREAT EFFORT TO PUT THE BALL OVER THE PYLON INTO THE ENDZONE.

PACE ACADEMY DRAWS FIRST BLOOD.

SO AGAIN, WE'VE SEEN THEIR OFFENSE, DO A VERY NICE JOB ON THEIR FIRST TWO DRIVES EVER STOPPED BY THAT HOLDING PENALTY THEIR FIRST DRIVE.

AND THAT TCSG SCORING DRIVE THREE PLAYS 52 YARDS.

ONLY A MINUTE SEVEN IS ALL IT TOOK FOR MAYS ACADEMY TO GET ON THE BOARD FIRST RIGHT HERE.

AND HOW ABOUT JAX IS A ALREADY 44 YARDS ON 15 CARRIES FOR THE KNIGHTS.

YEAH.

EITHER BIG PLAY GUY.

HE'S THE GUY THAT MAKES IT HAPPEN.

VERY BALANCED.

I'M REALLY IMPRESSED WITH VULCAN HOW HE'S MANAGING THE GAME THAT GOOD BALANCE OF RUN AND PASS.

THEY LOOK LIKE A MACHINE RIGHT NOW.

OFFENSIVE BESIDES THE HOLDING PENALTY AND THEY HAVEN'T REALLY BEEN SLOW DOWN.

IT'S TRUE.

SO, HERE WE ARE JUST UNDER TWO MINUTES TO GO IN THE FIRST QUARTER.

WE HAVE OUR FIRST SCORE AND PACE ACADEMY ABOUT TO KICK OFF.

FOR THE SECOND TIME IN THE GAME, SLOMAN TO KICK TOUCH BACK INTO THE END ZONE UNTIL WHAT'S GOING TO BE FIRST DOWN AND 20 FOR FITZGERALD.

TALKED ABOUT THE PURPLE HURRICANE.

THEIR FOURTH TITLE GAME APPEARANCE.

LAST TIME THEY WERE HERE WAS BACK IN 2000, LOST IN THE TITLE GAME.

THEIR ONLY STATE CHAMPIONSHIP CAME WAY BACK IN 1948, BUT THIS IS A PROGRAM THAT IS 118 REGION CHAMPIONSHIPS.

NOT THIS YEAR AGAIN, THEY LOST A BROOKS COUNTY.

SO THEY WERE SECOND IN THE REGION BUT QUARTERFINALS OR BETTER SEVEN OF THE PAST EIGHT YEARS.

THEY'RE USED TO PLAYING DEEP IN THE NOVEMBER AND LOOK AT THAT RECORD SINCE 2000, 168 WINS INCLUDING I HATE REGION CHAMPIONSHIPS ARGUABLY ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL TEAMS IN THE STATE THAT HAS NOT WON A STATE TITLE IN THE LAST 15 YEARS.

RUN OUT TO THE RIGHT SIDE, BUT A GOOD JOB ON A PASTY PANTS.

JUST WRING THAT OUT AND KEEP MONTRELL HARRIS FROM GAINING MUCH OF ANYTHING AS FITZGERALD HAVING A HARD TIME TRYING TO FIND ANY KIND OF GAPS RIGHT NOW.

THE SPACE DEFENSE, RIGHT?

YEAH, PACE IS DOING A GOOD JOB OF, NOT ONLY STOPPING THE RUN INSIDE THE DOING, A GREAT JOB ON A PERIMETER.

USING THEIR HANDS GETTING OFF BLOCKS AND MAKING TACKLES, FITZGERALD'S GOT TO FIND A WAY TO GET SOMETHING.

WE'VE GOT A TIMEOUT NOW IN THE FIELD.

PACE ACADEMY WAS TO TALK ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON ON DEFENSE, BECAUSE IT IS NOW FITZGERALD.

NO QUESTION ABOUT.

THAT WAS JD KING ON THE RUN RIGHT THERE, EIGHT-YARD GAIN AND BRINGS UP A SECOND AND 7 G ON THE CAPER LEFT SIDE, TRYING TO GET AROUND THE CORNER AND HE'S GOT SOME BLOCKING.

HE TOLD HIM TO LISTEN.

YOUR FAVORITE RECEIVER IS THE GUY THAT'S OPENED.

YEAH FEMALE FALCON BOUGHT IS A REALLY GOOD FOOTBALL PLAYER.

HE'S NOT THE MOST TALENTED GUY ON THE FIELD.

HE DOESN'T HAVE THE SPEED THAT GRAHAM HAS, BUT HE HAS GREAT INSTINCTS, GREAT FEAT.

HE CAN RUN GOOD ENOUGH TO GET AWAY FROM PRESSURE AND HE CAN THROW A GOOD ENOUGH TO HURT YOU IN THE PAST.

6A, MATCHUP OF UNBEATENS IS GOING TO GO FOR IT HERE ON FOURTH DOWN AND FITZGERALD HAND OFF.

THAT'S THE CANE.

AND HE GOT.

YEAH, GREAT JOB BY PACE.

NO STOPPING THE PERIMETER RUN, YOU KNOW, IN THAT SITUATION, YOU PROBABLY GOING TO GET SOME TYPE OF PLAY ACTION, PASS TOUR FROM RIVERRUN GREAT JOB OF GUYS, USING HER HANDS AND GETTING OFF BLOCKS BLOCKS RUNNING FLAT TO THE FOOTBALL AND MAKING TACKLES, AND THEN RALLYING TO THE POINT.

GETTING A BUNCH OF GUYS IN WHITE SHIRTS, ALL ON THAT BALL, CARRIER JD KING IS STRONG AND HE'S PHYSICAL, YOU KNOW, BUT HE CAN'T BE.

CAN'T RUN THROUGH 11 GUYS.

SO IT'S GOOD JOB, GUYS, RALLY INTO THE RAILING TO THE BALL, NOT EVER.

AN OPPORTUNITY.

HOW ABOUT TO CARRIES ONLY FOUR YARDS FOR KING ON THIS DRY?

THEY'VE REALLY BOTTLED HIM UP UNTIL NOW CAN PAYS GET SOMETHING DONE HERE WITH 41 SECONDS LEFT.

WE DO KNOW THEIR KICKER HAS GOT SOME RANGE.

THEY GOT OPPORTUNITY HERE.

LET'S SEE HOW THEY MANAGE IT.

KICK.

249 YARDER TO BEAT WHITE COUNTY EARLIER THIS YEAR AND HERE'S FOX IT UPON THEMSELVES TO THE 40 OUT NEAR MIDFIELD.

STILL MOVING GETS OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE 46-YARD LINE OF WHAT A NICE FIRST PLAY RIGHT THERE, BY CASE, CALL THEM OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE 44 YARD LINE.

SO A BIG PICKUP 18, YARD PICKUP BY THE SOPHOMORE QUARTERBACK.

AGAIN, DIDN'T HAVE THE SPEED, THE G DOES BUT GREAT INSTINCT.

THE IT FACTOR THAT COACH LATE TALKED ABOUT WHAT YOU SAW RIGHT THERE WITH DARIUS HAMPTON ONE OF THEIR BETTER PASS RUSHERS.

MAKE AN INSIDE MOVE AND ALLOW FAULT TO BE ABLE TO RUSH OUTSIDE.

AND SO, JUST LOSING CONTAIN, YOU KNOW, NOT A BAD JOB IN COVERAGE, BUT LOSING CONTAIN ON THE QUARTERBACK FALK IS GONNA HURT YOU WITH HIS FEET.

SO, IF YOU'RE THE NIGHT AND ABOUT OTHER 12 YARDS DOWN THE FIELD, GOAL RANGE PAST RIGHT NOW.

THERE'S DEON JACKSON FIRST DOWN AND MORE.

HE'S INSIDE THE 30 TO THE 25.

OH, WHAT, A GREAT TACKLE RIGHT THERE, TO SAVE THE TOUCHDOWN FOR FITZGERALD JACKSON WITH A 21-YARD PICKUP AND THE CLOCK WILL STOP WHILE THE CHAINS MOVE 25.

YEARS AGO, JACKSON GETTING IT DONE.

HE HAS A GREAT JOB LADIES.

GREAT JOB OF PLAY-CALLING, KNOWING THIS SITUATION KNOWING THAT YOU'RE GOING TO GET THAT VERTICAL PASS RUSH.

PERFECTLY TIME CALLED FOR A SCREENPLAY AND JACKSON JUST, YOU KNOW, DID A GOOD JOB OF CATCHING IT AND THEN WEAVING THROUGH TRAFFIC.

WELL, WE'RE SEEING, WE'RE SEEING SOME GREAT VERSATILITY HERE.

WHEN YOU LOOK AT AGAIN, WHAT THEY'RE DOING THAT LAST DRIVE WAS ALMOST ALL RUN HERE WITH THE TIME RUNNING DOWN AS PACE BURNS, ITS FINAL TIME OUT TO TALK ABOUT AT THE 23 YARD LINE FIRST.

AND 25 SECONDS AGO.

GOT OUR FALK HAS DONE FOR PACE ACADEMY FIRST DOWN RIGHT NOW.

HE'S ON THE RUN, LOOKING DOWNFIELD, SEEMS HEMINGWAY GETS HIS FEET INBOUNDS AND THEN OUT OF BOUNDS CULTURAL FIRST DOWN MARKER AT THE 12 YARD LINE.

SPENCER HEMINGWAY WITH THE CATCH.

YES, THE SAME PLAY.

WE SAW EARLIER THIS PRINTOUT PASS.

YOU GOT TO COME BACK, A GOOD JOB OF FAULT.

PUTTING THE BALL WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE.

A GOOD JOB, GETTING THE FEET AND BOUNCE.

THIS PACE OFFENSE IS ON THE MOVE, YOU'RE SEEING GREAT EXECUTION, BUT YOU SEEING GREAT PLAY CALLING ABOUT OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR.

WELL, YOU'RE SEEING SO MANY EVEN GUYS WITH THEIR, YOUR HANDS TOUCHING THE BALL.

AND GET THAT JACKSON FALK, HEMINGWAY, EVERYONE GETTING A PIECE OF IT.

YOU DON'T SEE REALITY GEORGE RIGHT NOW BECAUSE YOU DON'T NEED THE BRUISER IN THE BACKFIELD.

THAT'S NOT GOING TO HELP.

BUT AGAIN, THEY DON'T MISS HIM RIGHT NOW.

WHAT GREAT DIVERSITY ON OFFENSE FALK?

NOW GOING TO ROLL THE OTHER WAY LOOKING LOOKING.

HE'S GOT TO GET OUT OF BOUNDS NOTE.

TIMEOUTS.

HE'S GOT A TOUCHDOWN TOUCHDOWN PASS TO TRADE ONE FOOT.

IT'S NOT GOING TO COUNT.

THEY'RE GOING TO SAY HE WAS TASKED A LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

THIS IS NOT GOING TO COUNT.

IT'S GOING TO COME BACK UP THERE WITH ITS FACE.

YEAH, BUT I THINK YOU GOT IS PROBABLY LYMAN DOWNFIELD MORE THAN ANYTHING.

OKAY, BUT FAULT DID A GREAT JOB OF GETTING USING HIS FEET AND THEN MAKING AN INSTINCTIVE PLAY EAGLE PASS, BUT HE DID EXACTLY RIGHT.

BUT HE WAS CLOSED FOR ABOUT A YARD.

ONCE COMES AT THE 12.

HE'S AT THE MANY, LET THAT GOAL.

YEAH, I THINK, I THINK YOU'RE RIGHT.

I THINK HE WAS PAST THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

THEY PROBABLY GOT ONE MORE PLAY HERE, AND THEY'RE GOING TO COME TRY FOR A FIELD GOAL.

AFTER THAT.

I'LL TAKE A SHOT TO THE END ZONE.

YEAH, AND HERE'S THE KEY.

YOU CAN'T, YOU GOTTA GET RID OF THE BALL FORCE.

NO TIMEOUT, 11 SECONDS LEFT.

YOU'RE WELL WITHIN YOUR KICKERS RANGE, FALCOR TO LOOK RIGHT.

GOOD BLOCK HAS GOT LOTS OF TIME, BACK OF THE END ZONE.

TOUCHDOWN PACE ACADEMY GONNA PUMP DISPENSER HEMINGWAY AND THEY GET IT DONE IN THE FINAL MINUTE TO DRIVE ALL THE WAY DOWN THE FIELD FOR THE TOUCHDOWN.

GOVERNOR FAULT IS AN OUTSTANDING FOOTBALL PLAYER.

I MEAN HE'S SMART BUT HE DOES A GREAT JOB OF BEING PATIENT, YOU KNOW AND GOING TO HIS CHECK TOWNS.

HE GOES TO HIS FIRST KEY IS SICK AND KEEP LOOKING FOR THE BACKSIDE DRAG AND THEN FINDS THE BIG FELLA IN THE BACK OF THE END ZONE.

WELL, IF IT'S WET, THAT IS INSANE IS A GREAT JOB OF BEING PATIENT A GREAT JOB OF PUTTING THE BALL WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE, YOU KNOW, JUST YOU KNOW MATURITY.

HE COULD HAVE THROWN THE BALL AWAY RIGHT THERE AND SAID, WE'LL JUST TAKE A FIELD GOAL, BUT HE KEPT HIS EYES DOWNFIELD AND MADE A PLAY AND THEY GOT SEVEN POINTS.

23 IN THAT SITUATION AND THERE'S A KICK THERE BY SMALLMAN AS WEIRD AFTER 3 SECONDS OF LEFT FOR YOU TO YOUR POINT.

THAT WAS THE WORD.

I WAS THINKING WAS MATURITY.

THE PAGE IS TO STOP AND WAIT AND THE THROW THE BALL HIGH ENOUGH THAT IT WOULDN'T BE PICKED OFF AT THE WORST.

IT'S INCOMPLETE OR HEMINGWAY DROPS IT BUT HE GETS INTO HIS POSSESSION MAN.

SPENCER HEMINGWAY TO FOUR -YEAR STARTER COACH.

CHRIS SLADE SAYS, HE'S OUR POSSESSION GUY.

HE'S THE GUY YOU GO TO WHEN YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE SURE HANDS AND NOT NOT COINCIDENTALLY TWO CATCHES 27 YARDS ON THAT, TWO OF THE BIGGEST.

BLAZE THE 11-YARD PAST.

THEY TOOK IT DOWN TO THE 12 FIRST DOWN, GETS THE CATCH TIPTOES AND THE SILENT GET HIS FEET INBOUNDS FOR THE FIRST TIME, GETS OUT OF BOUNDS TO STOP THE CLOCK AND THEN TO CATCH CLUTCH IN THE BACK OF THE END ZONE.

ALL OF A SUDDEN.

IT'S A 21-7 LEAD, RIGHT NOW FOR PACE, ACADEMY DOES A GREAT JOB OF TIME MANAGEMENT.

THEY GOT TO STOP ON FOURTH DOWN, HAD THE BALL IN, GOOD POSITION AND THEN MADE A GREAT COP.

DID IT THE FAULT DID A GOOD JOB OF SPINNING OUT AND MAKING SOMETHING HAPPEN ON FIRST DOWN AND GETTING THE CHAINS MOVING.

YOU SAW A GREAT SCREEN PASS.

I NEED A COUPLE OF SPINOUTS AND THEN YOU GET INTO THE END ZONE.

GREAT PLAY CALL AND GREAT EXECUTION BY THE PACE PLAYERS ARE DOING A GOOD JOB.

GOOD-LOOKING HEMINGWAY RIGHT THERE.

COACH SLADE SAYS THE PLAYERS KNOW, THEY COULD BE A PART OF SCHOOL HISTORY.

AND THEY HAVE A TWO -TOUCHDOWN LEAD RIGHT NOW.

THREE SECONDS AWAY FROM HALFTIME HERE AT THE GEORGIA.

DOME KICKOFF GOES INTO THE END ZONE.

SO, ONE MORE PLAY FROM SCRIMMAGE RIGHT NOW FROM ITS GERALD AND THEN THEY'LL GO TO THE HALFTIME AND TRY.

TO RECRUIT RIGHT NOW.

THIS IS A TEAM THAT HAS JUST BEEN OUTSTANDING AND THE PLAYOFFS AVERAGING 42 POINTS PER GAME IN THE POSTSEASON.

THEY'VE BEEN HELD WITH SINGLE TOUCH DOWN HERE IN THE FIRST HALF.

IT WAS A GOOD JOB BY PACE TERMS OF GAME PLANNING AND EXECUTION OF THAT GAME PLAY.

YOU SAW ONE DRIVE.

WE'RE FITZGERALD, REALLY GOT IT GOING BESIDES THAT HAS BEEN ALL PASTE DEFENSIVELY.

THEY'VE GOT TO GO IN AND HAVE TIME AND COME OUT WITH A PLAN TO GET THIS BALL MOVING.

THEY'VE GOT TO STOP PACE ON THE FIRST POSITION AND THEN TRY TO GET THE BALL MOVING THERE.

JUST TAKING ME HERE.

AND THAT'S WHAT THEY DO.

THEIR CONTENT TO GO INTO THE HALFTIME RIGHT NOW DOWN.

21-7.

FIRST 24 MINUTES.

IT'S BEEN BY THE KNIGHTS FROM PACE ACADEMY AS THEY HAVE DONE EVERYTHING.

THEY HAVE WANTED TO DO.

THEY HAVE NOT PUNTED THE BALL.

ONCE THEY'VE HAD THE MISSED EXTRA MESSED FIELD GOAL THAT WENT WIDE LEFT.

AND AFTER THAT THREE TOUCHDOWNS.

STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

PACE IS LEADING THE WAY OVER FITZGERALD 6:39.

I'M WITH FITZGERALD'S COACH STRICKLAND COACH.

THE RUN GAME IS YOUR STRENGTH.

HOW DO YOU GET THAT GOING IN THE SECOND HALF.

A LITTLE BIT EXCITING.

WE WERE, WE WERE CONCERNED ALL WEEK LONG, ABOUT THEIR FISCAL SIZE, ON THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

AND RIGHT NOW, THEY'RE WHIPPING US, PRETTY GOOD ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL.

THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

WE JUST GOT TO PLAY WITH SOME MORE ENERGY.

YOU'VE GOT TO EXECUTE WELL AND JUST TRY TO TRY TO EXECUTE IT'S CALLED AND LET'S GET A COUPLE FIRST AND SEE IF WE CAN GET SOMETHING POSITIVE GOING.

ABSOLUTELY.

WHAT YOU TELL YOUR TEAM AT THE HAVE TO GET THEM EXCITED AND BACK IN THE SINGAPORE.

SLING WAS JUST CALM DOWN, RELAX, ENJOY BEING IN A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP AND UNDERSTAND WHERE YOU'RE AT.

AND THE OPPORTUNITIES THAT YOU'VE GIVEN THEY'VE WORKED HARD ALL YEAR TO GIVE HERSELF A CHANCE HERE TODAY.

YOU KNOW, LET'S SEE IF WE GET A COUPLE THINGS GOING HERE IN THE SECOND HALF, COACH A QUICK FEW KEYS TO THE GAME IN THE SECOND HALF.

IN ORDER TO GO HOME STATE CHAMPION.

WE'RE GOING TO TACKLE A WHOLE LOT BUDDY.

WE GOT A TANK GUNNER, FAULK.

HE'S GOT HE'S BROKEN CONTAIN SEVERAL TIMES.

ON US AND AND OF COURSE, HE'S AN EXCELLENT QUARTERBACK AND THEY'RE DOING A GREAT JOB OVER THERE, BUT WE GOT TO GET SOME STOPS.

AND THEN AND THEN FROM ALPHA TO PERSPECTIVE.

WE GOT A CONTROL LINE OF SCRIMMAGE BUTTER.

RIGHT?

COACH GO, JOIN YOUR TEAM.

THANKS, LARRY UP TO YOU.

OKAY, NIKKI.

THANKS HERE AGAIN WITH TUCKER COACH.

BRIAN LAMAR, AND COACH STRICKLAND.

PUT IT VERY WELL.

I DON'T KNOW, PICK YOUR POISON IS RIGHT NOW, THEY'RE DOING IT, GETTING IT DONE.

PACE ACADEMY IS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL.

LOOKING AT SOME FIRST-HALF HIGHLIGHTS RIGHT NOW.

IT WAS KIND OF A COUPLE OF DEFENSIVE HAYMAKERS EARLY ON AND THEN PASTE.

GOT IT GOING.

YEAH, MAN, YOU KNOW, PAYS DID A GOOD JOB OF STICKING TO THEIR GUNS STICKING TO THEIR GAME PLAN ON RUNNING THE BALL, THROWING THE BALL, GETTING ON THE PERIMETER AND THEN DEFENSE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF ONE DRIVE.

THEY'VE BEEN STOUT INSIDE AND OUTSIDE.

THEY STOPPED JD KING ON THE INSIDE.

AND THEN WHEN THEY TRIED TO RUN ON THE PERIMETER AND USE A GOOD JOB OF USING THEIR HANDS GOING FLAT DOWN THE LINE AND MAKING TAXES, NARROW, YOUR PACE KIND OF ROLLING.

YEAH.

WE SAW THE TOUCHDOWN THERE BY GRABBING AT 77 AND THEN IT COMES BACK.

A BIG WORRY, ALICE.

GEORGE MAKES IT 14-7 THE FINAL PLAY JUST BEFORE FOR THE HALF OF THE GUNNER.

FAULK UP DISPENSER, HEMINGWAY AND BOY, PAUL.

34, 34 55 YARDS ON THAT FINAL DRIVE.

LOOK AT THE STATS HERE AND COACH.

HERE'S THE THING, PUT IT DOWN.

BALANCE, TWO OFFENSES, FOR PACE ACADEMY, 136 RUSHING 116.

PASSING.

WILL YOU SEEN A MACHINE ON OFFENSE RIGHT NOW, RUNNING THE BALL, EFFECTIVELY PASSING THE BALL, EFFECTIVELY.

THEY KEEPING FITZGERALD IN A POSITION WHERE THEY CAN SAY, WE NEED TO STOP THE RUN IN THE SECOND HALF AND DO BETTER.

WE NEED TO STOP THE PASS IN THE SECOND HALF AND THE BETTER.

THEY GOT TO DO A LITTLE BIT OF BOTH TO AND HOW ABOUT GUNNER, FAULK, NINE OF NINE, PASSING FOR THE SOPHOMORE, QUARTERBACK FOR PACE ACADEMY, 116 YARDS.

AGAIN, 55 OF THOSE.

COMING ON THAT FINAL DRIVE IS THAT IT STAYS WITH THE TWO TOUCHDOWN LEAD AND THEY GET THE BALL FIRST HERE TO START THE SECOND HALF.

THAT'S MARTINEZ APPROACHING THE BALL WITH THE KICK FOR FITZGERALD AND WE ARE UNDER WAY HERE IN THE SECOND HALF.

IT'S A SHORT KICK.

THAT'S WE TAKE A RIGHT THERE AT THE 7-YARD LINE.

OUT TO THE 25 AND THE HE'LL BE STOPPED RIGHT THERE.

SO PACE ACADEMY ADS WHERE THEY WILL START THEIR FIRST DRIVE HERE.

THE FIRST TIME WE GOT TO RETURN A JOB.

IT'S A GOOD JOB COVERING BY FITZGERALD.

EVEN THOUGH THE BALL WAS SHORT, THEY STILL, YOU KNOW, TACKLE THEM, YOU KNOW CLOSE TO THE 20 YARD LINE PACE WHEN I HAVE TO DRIVE THE BALL TREY BLOUNT RIGHT THERE WITH THE WITH THE RETURN.

AND SO, HERE WE GO.

FIRST AND 25 DOWN PACE ACADEMY UP, 21-7 TRYING AGAIN FOR THEIR FIRST EVER STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

THEIR FIRST TIME HERE IN THE TITLE GAME.

GOT OUR FOG.

WE MENTIONED YET TO THROW AN INCOMPLETE PASS AT QUARTERBACK.

HANDOFF TO JACKSON.

HE FINDS A HOLE AND HE'S OUT CLOSE TO A FIRST DOWN AND SO THE KNIGHTS OFF, IT'S A MACHINE KEEPS ROLLING RIGHT ALONG.

YEAH, AGAIN, WE TALKED ABOUT WINNING FIRST DOWN.

THEY HAVE GOT TO FIND A WAY TO WIN FIRST DOWN.

YOU KNOW, YOU SEE, JACKSON NOT MUCH GOING TO FIND A WAY TO MAKE THE CUT, YOU GET VERTICAL.

GET POSITIVE YARDS NINE YARDS ON THE GAME THAT CHANGES SO MUCH FUN WHEN YOU'RE ON OFFENSE.

DOESN'T IT?

71 JACKSON AGAIN, THIS TIME, HE TALK TO LOTS OF BIG TIME.

STOP RIGHT THERE.

BIG NUMBER 76 WAS RIGHT THERE AND HE IS A LOAD ANTHONY RANZIE.

WE'VE CALLED HIS NUMBER A COUPLE OF TIMES.

YEAH.

IT'S A GOOD JOB OF GETTING THE STOP.

YOU KNOW, IN THAT SITUATION IS JUST THE FIRST DOWN AS WAS KILLING THEM.

YOU KNOW, IF YOU DON'T GIVE UP, NINE YARDS ON FIRST DOWN.

NOW, YOU GOT THEM IN A DIRT NOW SITUATION WHERE YOU CAN WIN VERY TOUGH TO WIN DURING ONES FOR AN ENTIRE GAME.

IT'S GEORGE SPLIT OUT TO THE LEFT, JACKSON IN THE BACKFIELD.

HE'LL GET THE HANDOFF AND HE'LL GET THE I WAS DOWN TO THE PIERS.

HE'S OUT TO THE 36, THAT'S ENOUGH TO MOVE THE STICKS TO YARD GAIN AND A FIRST DOWN FOR PACE ACADEMY.

YEAH, IT WAS A GOOD JOB ON THE LAST TWO PLAYS BY FITZGERALD.

THEY CAN TAKE THAT MOMENTUM IN THE FIRST DOWN RIGHT HERE, AND JUST MINIMIZE.

NO, GET A 1 OR 2 YARD GAIN.

IF NOT ZERO GAME TO A LOSS.

THEY CAN HAVE A CHANCE TO GET A STOP RIGHT HERE ON THIS POSSESSION.

15TH FIRST DOWN FOR PACE ACADEMY, ONLY SIX SO FAR FOR FITZGERALD.

WE'RE IN THE FIRST 90 SECONDS HERE.

IN THE SECOND HALF.

LARRY SMITH, BRIAN LAMAR AND NICKI NOTO ON THE CALL HERE.

OUR SECOND OF FOUR GAMES IS TO DUDE, FROM THE GEORGIA DOME CLASS 2A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP 1ST AND 10 FALCON.

THE SHOTGUN HANDS OFF TO GEORGE HIS FIRST, CARRY THAT HE FUMBLES THE BALL AND IT IS RECOVERED BY THE FITZGERALD PURPLE PLAY FOR THE HURRICANE DEFENSE AND IT GET THEIR OFFENSE, THE BALL AND THEIR BEST COMPETITION COMPETITION SO FAR AT THE POINT, ONE OF PACE.

YEAH.

THERE'S A GREAT JOB OF STOPPING INITIAL CHARGE AND WE TALKED ABOUT AMANDA BEGINNING TO GAME, DARIUS HAMPTON.

WHO IS THEIR MOST ENERGETIC GUY ON A DEFENSIVE LINE?

HE GOES FLAT DOWN THE LINE CAUSES A FUMBLE, YOU KNOW GOOD EFFORT.

THEY HAD A GOOD JOB UP FRONT OF STOPPING THE PUSH, BY THE BIG FELLOW GEORGE TRYING TO RUN THE BALL, UP THE MIDDLE AND NOW TO GET HIMSELF A CHANCE TO CUT INTO THE LEAD.

IT'S THE FIRST TIME.

FITZGERALD HAS STOPPED THIS PACE ACADEMY OFFENSE.

WE'RE GOING FIRST AND TEN.

THAT'S THE HANDOFF TO KING.

HE GET SOME POSITIVE YARDS.

NOT MUCH ABOUT THREE BRINGS UP SECOND DOWN.

YEAH.

GOOD JOB.

RIGHT THERE.

STOPPING KING.

BUT POSITIVE GAIN ON FIRST.

NOW, NOT NOT A TOTAL STONING.

YOU DIDN'T GET ZERO.

YOU GOT A LITTLE BIT.

SO LET'S SEE WHAT THEY'RE DOING.

S. YEP, S DOWN.

TO MAKE IT A THIRD AND MANAGEABLE.

IF NOT A FIRST NOW, JD KING JD STANDS FOR 1 DEL KING.

HE SURE WONDERING.

SECOND DOWN, NOW.

HE'S IN THE BACK FIELD.

THAT'S HARRISON MOTION, KING WITH A HANDOFF AGAIN.

NOT MUCH DOING AVERAGING, SEVEN AND A HALF YARDS PER CARRY.

BUT AGAIN THE SECOND STRAIGHT POSITIVE YARDS, FITZGERALD, ALL OTHER OFFENSE COMING ON THE GROUND.

THEY'VE YET TO ATTEMPT A PASS IN THIS GAME, BECAUSE THERE'S A GOOD JOB RIGHT THERE OF STOPPING STOPPING KING.

AND NOW YOU GOT DIRT AT THIRD AND MEDIUM.

LET'S SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO RIGHT HERE.

EMPTY BACKFIELD NOW FOR G AND WE'VE GOT SOME MOVEMENT IS MAYBE AGAINST FITZGERALD.

YEAH, THAT'S BAD NEWS FOR FISH.

GERALD THINK THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE A FALSE START, YOU KNOW, MAY 3RD, THAT MIGHT'VE BEEN HARRIS.

I'M NOT SURE ONE OF THE GUYS WHO WAS EITHER HARRIS OR BEEN SHAVERS.

TOOK OFF A BIT, TOO SOON.

YEAH.

THAT BACKS THEM UP TO THIRD AND NINE.

THIS IS NOT A GOOD POSITION FOR FITZGERALD BASED ON THEIR OFFENSE.

THEY WANT TO RUN THE BALL.

NOW, THEY'RE GOING TO BE FORCED INTO A PASSING SITUATION.

YOU CAN LOOK FOR THE PASS OR LOOK FOR THE SCREEN OR A PERIMETER RUN AGAIN.

EMPTY BACKFIELD.

SHAVERS AND MOTION.

THAT'S G ON THE RUN.

TRY TO THROW DOWNFIELD AND DROPPED IT.

YEAH, GREAT.

PLAY BY G OF ELUDING TACKLERS.

AND IN, FINDING A OPEN RECEIVER DOWNFIELD.

THE RECEIVER DID A GREAT JOB OF ADJUSTING AND COMING BACK TO THE BALL, BUT WASN'T ABLE TO HAUL IT IN.

YOU CAN SEE HIM ONE-ON-ONE, YOU KNOW, MAKING THE GUY MISS AND THEN GIVING THIS TEAM AND OPPORTUNITY BUT BY THROWING THE BALL UP AND COMES BACK TO THE BALL, HITS THEM IN THE HANDS WOULD HAVE FIRST AND GOAL AT THE 5 YARD LINE.

THAT'S MALIK CONEY NUMBER 80.

LOVE TO HAVE THAT ONE BACK.

IT ALMOST SURPRISED.

YEAH, IT ALMOST SURPRISING THE WAY YOU REACTED TO THE BALL.

AND YEAH SO BRIGHT, BUT NOW THEY KNOW YOU TALK ABOUT WINNING THE FIELD POSITION.

GOT A CHANCE TO PIN THEM DEEP HERE AND MAKE PACE HAVE TO DRIVE THE LENGTH OF THE FIELD AGAIN, YOU KNOW, THE TURNOVER AT LEAST, GIVES YOU OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE THE FIELD POSITION MARTINEZ ON THE PUNT RIGHT NOW ON FOURTH, AND NINE AND OVERRAN.

CAN THEY KEEP IT?

IT IN PLAY AND THEY'RE GOT THE MEN DOWN THERE, THE PLAYERS, AND THEY WILL FALL ON AT THE 3 YARD LINE.

SO, TO YOUR POINT, IT'LL BE THE WORST FIELD EMISSION PACES HAVE SO FAR.

37, YARD KICK FOR MARTINEZ PINS PACE DEEP NOW.

CAN YOUR DEFENSE MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN?

YEAH, WHEN WE GET SOMETHING POSITIVE VALUE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE GOTTEN A SCORE BUT NOW YOU'VE GOT THEM PIMP BACK DEEP AND CHANCE TO GET A STOP HERE.

AND THEN HAVE ANOTHER SHOT WITH GREAT FIELD POSITION GOING IN.

SO FITZGERALD IS STILL IN GOOD SHAPE, PACES, GOT TO FLIP THE FIELD, GET A COUPLE OF FIRST DOWNS, IF NOTHING ELSE GET THE BALL.

OUT OF THE SHADOW OF YOUR OWN END ZONE.

KIND OF LOOK AT CHRIS LAY THERE.

A MOMENT AGO.

AGAIN, WE MENTIONED NINE YEARS IN THE NFL AND TALK ABOUT HIS COACHING MENTORS BILL, BELICHICK BILL PARCELLS OUTGROW.

IT VIRGINIA GEORGE WALSH.

AT VIRGINIA'S HAD A LOT OF GREAT COACHES THAT HE'S WORKED ON HER FIRST DOWN, PLAY, RIGHT THERE.

THAT'S A RUN BY THE BIG BACK.

REALIS GEORGE FOR MINIMAL GAME.

BRINGS UP SECOND DOWN.

YEAH, FITZGERALD HAS MADE SOME ADJUSTMENT.

THEY BEEFED UP THE FRONT.

YOU CAN SEE THEY GOT THE BIG GUYS IN THERE, THEY'VE ACTUALLY BROUGHT AN EXTRA LIME IN IN ON AN INTERIOR, THE TWO TIGHT END TO BACK SET.

AND NOW THEY'RE GOING TO TRY TO, YOU KNOW, GO BRAUN AGAINST BRAUN TO STOP THE RUN THERE AND ALL THIS TIME.

THIS TO JACKSON THE BACKFIELD AGAIN, NOT MUCH GOING THERE.

NIKKI TALK MORE ABOUT A COACH LATE AND THE COACHING TREE HE COMES FROM, YOU MEAN COACH BELICHICK.

ARE YOU GUYS WITH ME?

BECAUSE JUST LIKE YOU MENTIONED HE COMES FROM THAT COACH.

BILL BELICHICK COACHING TREE AND LOOK WHEN HE ON THE BOAT.

AND HE LITERALLY SAID, WELL WE'RE GOING TO RUN IT OR WE'RE GOING TO PASS IT.

AND THAT'S HOW WE DISCUSSED HIS OFFENSE WITH US.

YOU GUYS SO MUCH, ALL IN GOOD FUN.

HE'S A FANTASTIC COACH.

SHE OBVIOUSLY LEARNED A LOT OF, HE'S REALLY CHANGE THE CULTURE AROUND AT PACE.

WHICH I CAN TALK A LITTLE BIT LATER IN THE GAME.

YEAH, GREAT STUFF.

HE WAS FUNNY.

HE WASN'T GIVING ANYTHING YOU WE ALMOST THOUGHT WE'RE TALKING TO BILL BELICHICK FROM 1 TO 10.

WE WE TALKED ABOUT THE FALL AND HE DID ANYBODY GIVE US ANYTHING AND AND HE ADMITTED AS SUCH HE'S I'M NOT GOING TO TELL YOU ANYTHING, EVEN THOUGH HE KNEW WE WERE GOING TO SANDING UNTIL NOW INCOMPLETE PASS THERE BY CAUGHT BY A GUNNER, FALL GETS HIS FIRST INCOMPLETION HERE IN THE GAME OF HIS NINE OF NINE TO START THE GAME.

AND SO IT BRINGS UP FOURTH AND SEVEN.

AND SO BRIAN, AS YOU MENTIONED NOW, A CHANCE FOR THE GERALD TO HAVE ITS BEST FIELD POSITION NOW IS THE PUNTER HAS ON FROM DEEP IN HIS OWN END ZONE.

AND WE'LL SEE IF IT'S, YO, CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE.

WE HAVE A FLAG.

NOW, THE DEFENSIVE BACKFIELD.

USUALLY THAT MEANS IT'S AGAINST, YEAH, WELL, GERALD AND I THINK FITZGERALD'S MADE A HUGE MISTAKE, HAD, THEY GOT TOO MANY GUYS ON THE FIELD LIGAND.

SUBSTITUTION.

DEFENSE, FIVE-YARD PENALTY THERE FOR THAT.

IT'S YEAH.

NUMBER 71 JUST CAME OFF JUST NOW.

YEAH, THEY WENT AHEAD BUT HE CHANGED PERSONNEL TO GET SOME BIGGER BODIES IN THE GAME TO STOP PACE UP FRONT WITH THE POWER RUNNING GAME.

AND WHEN THEY TRANSITION FROM REGULAR DEFENSE TO PUNT RETURN, THEY DIDN'T GET A GUY OFF.

THIS STILL GOT A GOOD CHANCE, YOU KNOW, IT DIDN'T HURT HIM TOO BAD BECAUSE THEY HAD THEM IN A DIRT AND LONG SITUATION.

CALL.

BUT THEY RAN INTO THE KITCHEN.

FAIR CATCH RIGHT THERE.

RANDOM THE KICKER BUT I DON'T SEE A FLAG AS HER FLYING DOWN HERE.

YEAH.

DO THE FLAG THE FLAG.

OKAY, YOU KNOW, AND IT WAS REALLY A BANG BANG PLAY.

YEP.

TO WHERE THEY GET THE CARE.

I BOUGHT THE KICKER DID A GREAT JOB OF ACTING, BUT IT GOT A PERSONAL FAMILY.

COME HERE.

FIRST OFF.

WE PASTE.

THAT'S A HUGE, HUGE PENALTY, 36 YARD KICK TO.

YOU WOULD HAVE HAD THE BALL AGAIN STARTING IN PAYS TERRITORY INSTEAD, AND HERE'S A REPLAY OF IT RIGHT HERE.

YEAH, LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT IT HERE.

YEAH, WE HAVE THIS GUY TO DO A BETTER JOB OF KNOWING THAT HE'S NOT GOING TO BLOCK THAT KICK.

YOU KNOW, THAT'S IT'S A TOUGH BREAK.

HE WAS GETTING BLOCKED.

BUT AT THE SAME TIME YOU JUST WANT TO ENSURE THE KICK IN THAT SITUATION BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING TO BE IN GOOD FIELD POSITION.

THAT'S A TOUGH WAY.

SO FIRST AND TEN, NOW FOR PACE INSTEAD OF THEIR OWN 26 MAN IN MOTION THERE.

SO THEY HAND OFFICER JACKSON LEFT SIDE.

HE'S ACROSS THE 30 OUT TO THE 33 AND ONCE AGAIN, ANOTHER BIG RUN FOR YARDS ON FIRST DOWN AND THAT REALLY IS KEPT.

THIS FITZGERALD DEFENSE ON ITS HEELS THE ENTIRE GAME AND THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU MAKE MISTAKES IN THE SPECIAL TEAMS.

NOW YOU DEFENSE HAS TO GO RIGHT BACK OUT THERE.

AND THERE YOU GOT DEFENSIVE LINEMAN WITH HANDS ON THEIR HIPS.

AND NOW HERE COMES THAT PACE OFFENSE, BARRELING DOWN HILL WITH THE DOUBLE HEADED MONSTER OF THE TWO RUNNING BACKS, AND YOU'RE IN TROUBLE.

S 3 NOW.

THAT'S BLUNT IN MOTION.

HE TAKES THE HANDOFF OF THE SWEEP.

HE'S GOT A FIRST DOWN AND MORE.

HOW PAST THE 40 NEAR THE 45.

THAT'S ANOTHER BIG RUN FOR PACE ACADEMY RIGHT NOW.

THEY ARE IN CONTROL AND BOYD, HOW BIG THAT PENALTY COULD BE.

IT MAY COME BACK INTO THE GAME AND MAYBE ONE OF THE KEY POINTS THAT WE TALK ABOUT.

AS WE LOOK BACK AT THIS GAME WITH FITZGERALD, CAN'T COME BACK AND MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN.

NICE ONE RIGHT THERE BY 11 YARD, RUN THERE BY A TRADE, LAUNCH IT, ROY BLUNT IS ATHLETIC, YOU KNOW, THEY'RE DOING THE SAME THING.

THEY'VE BEEN DOING ALL GAME WHICH IS RUN THE TWO.

ACCEPT THE MIDDLE AND GET BLUNT AND MOTION HIM AND GET HIM RUNNING ON THE PERIMETER.

JACKSON THE BACKFIELD HANDOFF.

AND STOPPED EARLY.

THAT'S NUMBER 15.

TONY ADDISON ON THE SWEET BUT A GREAT DEFENSIVE PLAY RIGHT THERE BY JOSH RELIFORD AND RELATIVES AT RUTHERFORD HAS DONE A GOOD JOB.

ALL YEAR AT SAFETY.

HE'S IN THE BOX A LOT.

HE MAKES A LOT OF TACKLES AND THIS IS WHAT YOU GOT TO HAVE ON FIRST DOWN ZERO GAIN OR NEGATIVE YARDAGE PLAY.

NOW, LET'S S UP SECOND AND LONG, YOU KNOW FITZGERALD'S GOT TO COME BACK AND HAVE ANOTHER GREAT PLAY HERE.

PACE IS JUST NEEDS TO GET SOMETHING POSITIVE GOING.

SO YOU KIND OF GET IT FROM BOTH ANGLES, PASTE WANTS TO GET IT TO A MANAGEABLE MANAGEABLE DIRT DOWN AND FITZGERALD WANTS TO STOP THEM FROM DOING THAT.

WE'RE PRETTY IMPRESSIVE PLAY, RIGHT THERE.

WHAT ARE THE FIRST - PLAYS?

I'M FIRST DOWNFALL TO PASS COMPLETE FOR A FIRST DOWN, AND MORE.

AND ANOTHER GREAT PLAY RIGHT THERE BY TONY, ADDISON ON THE CATCH.

SO ADDISON ON THE RUN - YARDS MAKES UP FOR IT WITH A BIG CAPTAIN RUN THEIR FIRST DOWN AND THEY'RE INTO FITZGERALD TERRITORY.

YEAH RIGHT ON CUE AND WE JUST TALKED ABOUT MAKING IT A MANAGEABLE THIRD DOWN.

THEY THROW A QUICK HIT.

EACH PLAY BUT THEN ADDISON USE THE JETS USES ATHLETIC ABILITY TO TURN INTO MORE 14-YARD.

PLAY RIGHT HERE.

CLASS 2A, STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

PACE ACADEMY GOING FOR ITS FIRST EVER TITLE.

FITZGERALD NEEDS TO RALLY TO GET ITS FIRST CHAMPIONSHIP SINCE 1948 FIRST AND TEN FOR THE KNIGHTS FALCON THE ROLLOUT.

GOOD ATHLETIC MOVE TO GET AWAY FROM THE RUSH.

STILL HAS THE BALL GOING TO KEEP IT AND RUN FOR POSITIVE YARDS.

ONLY FUMBLES.

THE BALL BALL IS LOOSE BE CAREFUL.

THEY HAVEN'T RECOVERED FUMBLES IN THIS CORNER, FOR THE FITZGERALD.

PURPLE.

HURRICANE DEFENSE, BUT YOU JUST WITNESS DOWN RIGHT?

THERE WAS A GREAT COACH AND ADJUSTMENT.

OKAY.

THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THAT WE'VE SEEN THIS BOOTLEG PLAY, WHERE THEY'VE HAD TWO TIGHT ENDS IN THE GAME.

THE QUARTERBACK NAKED SOUTH THIS TIME.

THEY HAD IT PLAYED, BUT FAULT MAKES AN OUTSTANDING PLAY WITH HIS FEET, BUT THEN DOESN'T SQUEEZE THE BALL TIGHT AND FUMBLES IT, YOU KNOW, FITZGERALD HAD A GREAT COACH AN ADJUSTMENT TO WHAT THEY WERE SEEING, THE PLAYER DIDN'T EXECUTE IT.

WELL, FALK OUT, OUTPUT F ATHLETE IN HIM, BUT THEN, YOU KNOW, TURN THE BALL OVER BECAUSE HE DIDN'T SQUEEZE IT TIGHT.

SO, YOU KNOW, WE'RE BACK WITH FITZGERALD WITH THE BALL WITH AN OPPORTUNITY AND A GREAT JOB BY BUCKLE ON THE RIGHT THERE TO FORCE THAT.

FUMBLE FITZGERALD, NOW PERSON 10 AND AGAIN, THE RUNNING GAME, CAN'T GET IT GOING.

WHAT A BIG PLAY ON DEFENSE RIGHT THERE BY NUMBER 33, PHILIP MARK WALTER.

WE'VE CALLED HIS NUMBER SEVERAL TIMES ON THE KEEPER.

VY G. YEAH, IT WOULD JUST, YOU KNOW, A BOTCHED HANDOFF RIGHT?

THERE WASN'T AS SMOOTH AS THEY WANTED IT IN A NEGATIVE.

YARDAGE PLAY RIGHT THERE BY GROUND.

JUST ZERO JUST HASN'T DONE A GREAT JOB ON FIRST DOWN THIS GAME THOUGH.

THEY'RE OFTEN SEEMS OUT OF SYNC.

GRAB ON THE CAPER HERE.

HE MAKES THINGS MOVE WITH WITH HIS FEATS, BIG GAME OUT OF THE 39 YARD LINE.

SO POSITIVE YARDS.

THERE.

IT'S A VERY BIG PICKED UP BRINGS UP THIRD AND SHORT THIRD ABOUT THREE.

IT LOOKS LIKE 13-YARD PICKUP FOR YOUNG JAMES, GRAHAM, THE SOPHOMORE QUARTERBACK FOR THE PURPLE HURRICANE.

YEAH.

GRANDMA'S BEEN THE ONE BRIGHT SPOT FOR THIS OFFENSE TODAY.

THEY GOT TO FIND A WAY TO CONTINUE TO GET THE BALL IN HIS HANDS AND ALLOW HIM TO MAKE PLAYS INSIDE AND OUT.

OUT TIME OUT, ON PACE ACADEMY NOW 4426, MARK.

NO, SCORING HERE IN THE SECOND HALF WILL STEP ASIDE AS WELL HERE, AS WE CONTINUE ON THE CLASS, 2A CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

CHRIS SLADE.

SPACE ACADEMY KNIGHTS STILL UP BY TWO TOUCHDOWNS 21-7.

WE'RE BACK AFTER THIS.

IT BRINGS OUT THE BEST IN ALL OF US.

AND REGIONS EVERY DAY IS GAME DAY.

21-7 PACE ACADEMY, AS WE COME BACK HERE TO THE GEORGIA DOME.

THE CLASS, 2A GAME CLASS 4A AND CLASS 6A TITLE GAME.

STILL TO COME LATER TODAY.

HEY WHY WEDNESDAY NIGHT'S WIN TONIGHT'S OF GBBR GYM.

THAT'S WITH A FULL SERVING OF SCIENCE AND NATURE SHOWS THIS WEDNESDAY.

GET A GLIMPSE INSIDE A FASCINATING CITY OF MACHU PICCHU AND TIME SCANNERS AND FIND OUT WHY HONEY BADGERS ARE ONE OF THE INTERNET'S FAVORITE ANIMALS ON NATURE AND ON NOVA, SEE WHY SCIENTISTS THINK THEY MAY BE GOING IN A GALAXY FAR.

FAR AWAY WITH ALIEN PLANETS REVEALED.

IT'S ALL ON WHY WEDNESDAY STARTING AT 7 ON GPB.

GOOD DRAMA HERE RIGHT NOW.

PACE ACADEMY LEADING FITZGERALD, A BIG THIRD DOWN PLAY HERE FOR THE PURPLE HURRICANE.

TRY TO GET SOMETHING GOING.

THEY'VE YET TO COMPLETE A PASS IN THIS GAME.

MAN IN MOTION IS HARRIS.

HE GOES LEFT SIDE.

HE'S GOT A FIRST DOWN AND MORE OUT TO MIDFIELD.

AND THEN SOME FIRST DOWN.

IT'S ACTUALLY JALEN SHAVERS ON THE RUN AND A BIG PLAY ON THIRD DOWN FOR THE PURPLE HURRICANE 12-YARD GAIN.

IT'S IN A PACE TERRITORY.

YES.

GOOD JOB WAS GETTING ONTO THE SIDELINES AND GET AN OPPORTUNITY.

I'M OUT HERE IN THE FIELD.

WE'VE GOT AN INJURED, PACE ACADEMY PLAYER DOWN, AND WE'LL TAKE A LOOK AT HIM.

THAT'S THE DEFENSIVE BACKS.

MARK SOMERVILLE WITH JUNIOR QUARTERBACK AND THEN TAKE A LOOK AT HIM.

YOU'LL GET IT BACK OVER TO THIS FITZGERALD TEAM AND JAMES GRANT.

WE TALKED TO THE FIRST HALF ABOUT HOW HANNAH STEP IN TO REPLACE GERALD MORGAN, WHO WAS THE ALL-STAR, DO EVERYTHING SENIOR QUARTERBACK FOR THEM.

LAST YEAR, WENT ON TO PLAY THIS YEAR AT APPALACHIAN STATE ON THE SCHOLARSHIP.

AND THEY WERE SAYING DAYTONA IN THE PRESEASON.

WE DON'T NEED YOU TO BE GERALD.

WE NEED, YOU JUST TO, TO BE, YOU BE JAMES, AND HE'S GROWN INTO THAT.

HE'S BECOME ONE OF THE COACHES ON THE FIELD FOR THIS FITZGERALD, TEAM AND A BIG REASON WHY THEY'RE 13 AND ONE THIS SEASON, JUST THE WAY HE'S TAKEN CONTROL OF THINGS.

ONLY A SOPHOMORE.

HE HAS A GREAT GRASP OF WHAT THE COACHES WANT HIM TO ACCOMPLISH.

AND OF COURSE, YOU HAVE JD KING BEHIND YOU.

THAT HELPS A LOT TOO.

AND ALSO, THE FACT THAT HE'S VERY ATHLETIC HIMSELF, YOU KNOW, IF YOU'RE THE ANCHOR LEG ON THAT FOR BUY ONE TODAY ME YOU CAN GO, YOU KNOW, AND THAT WAS AS A FRESHMAN AS A OFF MORE, HE'S IMPROVED HIS SPEED AND HE JUST GOING TO CONTINUE TO FLOURISH JD KING.

NO DOUBT.

IS THE IS IT IS, IT IS THE WORKHORSE IN THIS OFFENSE, BUT MAKE NO MISTAKES ABOUT IT.

JAMES GROUND PLAYS A BIG ROLE REFRESH, LOWER COURTS IN THEIR YARDS, HIMSELF IN THE SEASON 8 TO TAKE HIS OWN UPPER RIGHT THERE.

AS WE HAVE LONG BIG GAME THERE.

PLUS IT'S GOING TO BE A FACE MASK PENALTY ON TOP OF THAT.

SO SOME MOMENTUM HERE FOR FITZGERALD, FLAGS ALL OVER THE PLACE.

WE'LL SEE THE FACE MASK RIGHT HERE, BRIAN.

YEAH, YOU CAN SEE, RUNNING THE BALL, YOU KNOW, AND THEN THERE'S THE FACEMASK REACHED IN AND GRABBED IT.

THAT'S PROBABLY GONNA BE OF THE 15-YARD VARIETY.

YEAH, FOR 15 YARDS.

YOU ALSO SEEING A LOT OF CRAMPING BY THE PACE PLAYER.

JUST SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS EVERY YEAR THAT I'VE EVER, YOU KNOW, COACH THE TEAM HERE IN THE DOME.

WE'VE HAD TO DEAL WITH CRAMPING JUST FROM PLAYING ON THE SURFACE AND THEN ALSO THE TEMPERATURE INSIDE THE DOME IS COOLED OFF A LOT.

AND NOW IT'S A LITTLE BIT WARMER HERE THAN WHAT YOU'RE USED TO ALONG WITH THE EMOTIONS OF PLANNING AND SUCH A GREAT VENUE.

GUYS TEND TO CRAMP UP A LITTLE BIT.

THAT'S SO THAT'S SOMETHING WE NEED TO MONITOR AS WE CONTINUE THIS GAME.

YEAH, WE'RE THE SEVENTIES TO ADVANCE ITS EASILY WARM AND MID-DECEMBER.

EVEN FOR ATLANTA RIGHT NOW.

FIRST DOWN.

HERE'S JDK.

HE'S GOT SOME ROOM AND GETS AN OUT TO ABOUT THE 20 POSITIVE YARDS FOR KING.

NOT QUITE YET AGAIN.

WE HAVEN'T SEEN HIM, GET UNLEASHED BUT HE'S ALWAYS A THREAT TO DO.

SO FOR YARD GAME BRINGS UP SECOND AND SIX HE'S GOT TO CONTINUE TO MONITOR IT.

THERE YOU GO.

AGAIN.

HE'S FOLLOWING THOSE GUARDS, YOU KNOW TRYING TO MAKE A CUT.

THIS OFFENSE IS THE TYPE OF OFFENSE THAT AS IT CONTINUES TO TO GO DURING THE COURSE OF THE GAME.

YOU'LL SEE BIGGER AND BIGGER RUNS, YOU KNOW, THEY CONTINUE TO FEED JD KING.

HE'LL GET SOMETHING POSITIVE GOING BEFORE LONG.

SO FITZGERALD ON THE RUN.

RIGHT HERE IS WHAT COACH TALKED ABOUT MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN?

SECOND AND SIX.

THAT'S KING RIGHT THERE.

JAKE G ON THE CAPER.

AND HE'S STILL ON HIS FEET.

STILL MOVING THE PILE STILL GOING.

JUST NOW WENT DOWN.

IT'S A GREAT SECOND AND THIRD EFFORT THERE BY THE SOPHOMORE.

YEAH.

WELL ONE THING YOU SEEING FROM GRANDBABIES, THEY CONTINUE TO THEY'RE DOING SUCH A GREAT JOB ON STOPPING KING THAT THEY'VE BEEN ABLE TO USE QUARTERBACK COUNTERS WITH GRAMS OF HERE.

AGAIN, YOU SEE THEM, FAKE THE KING RUN THE COUNTER WITH BROWN.

HE'S GETTING POSITIVE YARDS BY STICKING THAT FOOT IN THE GROUND AND GET THEM VERTICAL.

HE CONTINUES TO MOVE HIS FEET.

HE'S NOT A LITTLE GUY.

HE'S A IT IS GOING TO BE THIRD DOWN AND 1 RIGHT NOW.

HERE WE GO.

GETTING IT INSIDE THE 10, GREAT JOB BY THEIR BY SHAVERS.

NICE RUN.

FITZGERALD CONTINUES TO MOVE.

YES SHAVERS ALSO DOING A GOOD JOB RUNNING THE BALL TODAY.

AGAIN.

THEY HAVE PACKED IN TIGHT TO STOP JD KING UP THE MIDDLE.

AND THEN THEY GET ON THAT.

THEY GET ON THE PERIMETER, WITH THE WING BACKS, WITH THE SPEED PLAY TO REACH, PLAY THE STRETCH BLADE, REALLY DOING A GOOD JOB, MICHELLE.

A BIRD'S-EYE GETTING A LOT OF ACTION HERE, AVERAGING FOUR AND A HALF YARDS PER CARRY, GET IT BACK TO JAMES, GRAHAM, THE THE THE SOPHOMORE QUARTERBACK 1436 YARDS RUSHING.

SO HE'S AVERAGING 100 YARDS A GAME ON THE GROUND AND 18 TOUCHDOWNS RUSHING AS WELL.

AND SHOWING AGAIN SHOWING OFF THAT SPEED HERE.

HE HAS A TOUCHDOWN EARLIER.

THE ONLY ONE OF THE PURPLE HURRICANE HERE.

HANDOFF AGAIN TO SHAVERS.

HE'S GOT A WHOLE TRYING TO GET UP TO THE END ZONE, GETS IT CLOSE TO THE 5 AND STOPPED ABOUT SIX YARD LINE.

SO ABOUT 3 OUR GAME.

SUCKING GOLF, THE SIX.

YEAH, GOOD JOB AGAIN.

TRYING TO GET ON THE PERIMETER, TRYING TO GET SOME STUFF GOING TO ME, FITZGERALD IS JUST IS DOING WHAT YOU DO IN THIS OFFICE.

YOU TRY TO KEEP THAT DEFENSE ON THE FIELD AS LONG AS YOU CAN AND CONTINUE TO STRETCH, YOU KNOW, HIT THE BALL, UP THE MIDDLE AND TRY TO GET ON THE PLUMBER TO KEEP GOING BACK AND FORTH.

AND SOMETHING POPS GOING TO CAN'T DOWN TO SLEEP.

CAN'T GET TO THE INSIDE, THE FIVE, BROUGHT DOWN AROUND THE TO, THAT'LL BRING UP THIRD DOWN.

AND SO JD CAME LOOKING FOR HIS 33RD RUSHING TOUCHDOWN ON THE SEA.

YOU TALKED AGAIN.

NIKKI TALK TO COACH STRICKLAND MAYOR.

JUST AFTER HALFTIME AND SAID, HEY, WE JUST GOT A BLOG.

SOME GUYS MAKE SOME THINGS HAPPEN.

IF THEY CAN SCORE HERE.

IT'S A ONE TOUCHDOWN GAME AND YOU'RE STILL IN THE THIRD QUARTER, ALL THE 72 BALLGAME.

HE HAS NO DOUBT ABOUT IT MEANS STILL A GREAT GAME RIGHT HERE, AND IT CAN GO EITHER WAY.

HAD ON THAT TOUCHDOWN.

AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED HERE.

JD KING COMING ACROSS.

YOU JUST STRETCHES IT.

NOT A BAD JOB BY PACE, BUT ONCE HE GETS THOSE SHOULDERS SQUARE TO THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

IT'S NO STOPPING JD KING ON THE ONE.

GOD, HE'S SUCH A BIG AND POWERFUL BACK AND JUST ONE MORE LOOK ON THE TCSG TOUCHDOWN REPLAY PUTS A SHOULDER DOWN AND JUST LOWER IS IN THE MARK SOMERVILLE AND POWERS HIS WAY INTO THE ENDZONE MARTINEZ, WITH THE EXTRA POINT.

AND JUST LIKE THAT.

IT'S A ONE TOUCHDOWN GAME.

SO CAROL A PAIR OF FUMBLE, RECOVERIES HERE IN THE SECOND HALF AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY'VE CLOSED WITHIN ONE 2114.

LET'S GO DOWN TO NICKI NOTO.

JD KING.

AND WHEN THINGS JUST KIND OF CLICKED WITH HIM AND HIS TEAM, HE SAID, TWO YEARS AGO WHEN WE WENT TO BEEN ADDICTING, WE LOST 50 127.

HE SAID, THAT JD ENDED UP FINISHING THAT GAME.

HE WAS A FRESHMAN SO WE DIDN'T START, BUT WHEN HE PLAYED THAT GAME, HE SAID HE BROUGHT THAT GAME UP AT TUESDAY AT PRACTICE THIS WEEK.

HE SAID HE TOLD THE GUYS FINISHED UP THAT GAME AND REALIZED HE SAID THAT, THE REASON THAT WE LOST THAT GAME IS THAT HE HAD REALIZED THAT THE GUYS AROUND HIM HAD QUIT.

HE SAID, HEY, THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN THIS YEAR.

THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

TO THIS TEAM.

IF I HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT.

HE SAID THAT BENEDICTINE GAME JUST TURNED EVERYTHING AROUND AND JD KINGS MINE.

AND HE SAID, I WANT OUR TEAM TO PLAY THE GAME OF THEIR LIVES TO TAKE YOU GUYS.

REALLY COOL STORY ABOUT JD KING AND FITZGERALD.

NIKKI.

THANKS SO MUCH.

AND SO QUESTION.

NOW, WHAT AN ATHLETE HE IS.

IT GET ME RUSH OR 1,500 YARDS LAST YEAR B AND THE SHADOW OF THE QUARTERBACK GERALD MORGAN OVER 23.

NOW, TWENTY FOUR HUNDRED YARDS HERE.

THIS SEASON 33RD TOUCHDOWN IS A FITZGERALD TEAM AGAIN 700 94 PLAYS OVER 700 RUNNING PLAYS.

SO THEY THAT'S WHERE THEY GET THEIR BREAD AND BUTTER ON THE KICKOFF HERE.

FRONT KICKS IN THE END ZONE FOR A TOUCHBACK FIRST, DOWN AND 10.

NOT GO AFTER THE TWENTY ONE MORE.

LOOK AT THE TOUCHDOWN HERE.

BRIAN IS KING THREE CARRIERS 10 YARDS ON THAT DRIVE AND PULLS IT OFF WITH THE TOUCHDOWN.

YOU CAN SEE AGAIN.

THEY RUN INTO SPEED PLAY.

REALLY TRYING TO GET ON THE PERIMETER.

HE USES HIS SPEED AND THEN USE THIS POWER TO GET HIMSELF INTO THE END ZONE.

A PHYSICAL RUNNER.

NO, ONE OF THE TOP, JUNIOR BACKS IN THE STATE.

BE PLAYING A NEW ELITE.

JUNIOR, CLASSIC ALL-STAR GAME HERE IN DECEMBER, RIGHT AFTER CHRISTMAS, ONE OF THE BEST BETS IN THE STATE AND WE WERE ONE OF THE BEST BACKS IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

YOU WANTED THE BEST BACKS IN THE COUNTRY.

SO NOW TO 2114 GAME AND PACE WITH ANOTHER BIG PLAY ON THE FIRST DOWN, BOY.

THEY DO IT EVERY SINGLE TIME DIFFERENT RUNNING BACK THIS TIME.

THAT'S THE FRESHMAN KESHON PERRY, BUT A SPEEDY BACK, ONLY 56, 155.

A COACH TALKED ABOUT, HE'S THE SPEED BACK.

SO WE'VE SEEN THE BIG POWER OF REALICE GEORGE, THE GREAT, SHIFTINESS DION.

JACKSON.

AND NOW THE THIRD MEMBER OF THAT BACKFIELD FOR THE FIRST CARRY KESHON PERRY, MAN WITH THE BIG CARRY EIGHT-YARD GAIN THEIR.

YEAH.

WELL, YOU KNOW, DEON JACKSON IS ALSO STARTING AT QUARTERBACK.

SO YOU PROBABLY NEED TO GO BLOW A CADET LONG, DEFENSIVE DRIVE.

AND SO NOW THEY GET TO EAT THE THE SMALLER BACK IN THERE TO GIVE HIM A BLOW, BUT I'M SURE YOUR CD ON HERE THEN THE NEXT FEW NEXT FEW PLACE.

SO PERRYMAN AGAIN THIS TIME GOING TO THE OUTSIDE.

ONE MORE REPLAY OF THIS.

HE GOT A ONE-YARD GAIN.

GOOD JOB BY THE DEFENSE, BRINGS UP A THIRD AND SHORT.

AND ONCE AGAIN, ANOTHER CRUCIAL PLAY FOR THE FITZGERALD DEFENSE, AS THEY AGAIN TRY TO KEEP PACE AT BAY THIRD AND ONE, AND OFTEN BIG GEORGIE POWERS HIS WAY IN FOR THE FIRST DOWN AND THE PACE OFFENSE, MOVED TO CHANGE YET AGAIN WITH THAT POWER RUNNING A MORALES GEORGE.

YEAH, BUT ONCE AGAIN YOU SEEING THE SAME THING THEY LOST ON FIRST DOWN, BIG TIME, YOU KNOW, AND SO NOW YOU GOT TO STOP 41-YARD GAIN ON SECOND, BUT IT'S STILL DIRTY ONE.

ONE, YOU KNOW, THEY GIVE IT TO BIG GEORGE.

YOU JUST USING HIS POWER AND HIS BRUTE STRENGTH TO THE BARREL.

FOR THE FIRST DOWN.

WE'VE GOT A PENALTY OR MAKE THAT AN INJURY ON THE FIELD.

THAT'S ANTHONY RANZIE.

THE JUNIOR DEFENSIVE LINEMAN IS DOWN.

YEAH, AND ANTHONY, HE'S RUNNING INTO THE SAME PROBLEMS THAT WE WERE SEEING FROM THE PACE PLAYERS.

HE IS CRAMPING IN THAT RIGHT CALF THE BIG FELLAS.

BEEN OUT HERE, GIVING TREMENDOUS EFFORT, BUT NOW YOU'RE SEEING THE EFFECTS OF PLAYING HERE IN THE GEORGIA.

DOME ON THIS TURF.

IT'S AMAZING.

WELL, YOU TAKE A LOOK RIGHT NOW WHILE THEY'RE DOING THAT.

YOU SEE TWO OF THE MANAGERS RUNNING OUT AND MAKING SURE EVERYBODY GETS WATER.

OH, YEAH, GUYS, ON THE FIELD RIGHT NOW IS THE CRAZIEST THING WE PLAY ON TURF, YOU KNOW, A GOOD BIT OF OUR GAMES DURING THE REGULAR SEASON, BUT, YOU KNOW, ONCE YOU GET INTO THE GEORGIA DOME, YOU ALWAYS SEEM TO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH CRAMPING.

YOU KNOW, I'VE COACHED THREE GAMES HERE, THREE, YOU KNOW, CHAMPIONSHIP LEVEL GAMES HERE, AND ALSO COACHED A PRESEASON GAME, BUT YOU STILL, WE, IT'S ALWAYS A BIG EMPHASIS FOR US IS FIGURE OUT HOW WE'RE GOING TO HANDLE.

THE CRAMPING SITUATION, VERY QUICKLY, DAYTIME GAMES TOUGHER, THE NIGHTTIME GAMES, BECAUSE OF HUMIDITY CHANGE DURING THE DAYS, IT'S WARMER.

I DON'T THINK DES IS BIG OF A DEAL HERE, IS IT?

I THINK IS JUST, YOU'RE INDOORS.

YOU'RE EXCITED.

YOU OWN THE TURF IS IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS WHERE I REALLY CAN'T CALL IT, BUT YOU ALWAYS SEE A LOT OF FRANKLIN FROM THE HIGH SCHOOL TEAMS, YOU KNOW, YOU DON'T SEE THIS MUCH CRAP FROM THE FROM THE FALCONS FOR WHATEVER.

RECENTLY WENT TO HIGHSCHOOL, GUYS GET HERE.

THEY CRAMPING UP ALL OVER THE PLACE.

VERY DRINK.

IT MORE FLUID, I GUESS BEFORE THE GAME OR SOMETHING.

FIRST, I'LL PLAY RIGHT THERE IN COMPLETION BY GUNNER FAULK.

AGAIN.

HE'S AFTER BEING PERFECT PASSING 9 OF 9 AND THE FIRST HALF, BUT HE IS STRUGGLING THE PASSING GAME HERE.

NOW, 10 OF 12, JUST ONE OF THREE PASSING IN THE SECOND HALF.

SO, SECOND DOWN AND 10 RIGHT NOW FROM THE 32.

HANDOFF.

RIGHT SIDE AND MORE STILL ON HIS FEET.

THAT'S THE FRESHMAN PERRYMAN WITH THE SPEED AND IT'LL BE ANOTHER 15 YARDS UNSPORTSMANLIKE PENALTY.

HE HITS HIM OUT OF BOUNDS AND A BIG MISTAKE THERE BY THE PURPLE HURRICANE DEFENSE.

OH, YEAH, IT WAS DAIRIES HAMPTON AGAIN.

WHO WAS A HIGH MOTOR GUY?

ONE OF THEIR LEADERS ON DEFENSE.

HE'S A GUY THAT FLIES AROUND AND GET AFTER BUT JUST, YOU KNOW, TO THE BEST SHOT RIGHT THERE AND NOT EVEN 15 YARDS TO THE END OF THAT RUN.

YOU KNOW, I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY, YOU KNOW BEFORE THE LAST PLAY THAT FISH GIRL.

DONE A GOOD JOB OF KIND OF KNOCKING THEM OFF OF THEIR STRIDE, YOU KNOW PACE.

IT JUST BEEN DOING WHAT THEY WANTED TO DO ALL OFFENSIVELY AND THEY'RE STARTING TO GET STOPS.

BUT AGAIN, THE 15-YARD PENALTY IS DEFINITELY, YOU KNOW GOING TO PUT THEM IN A BAD SITUATION RIGHT HERE.

YEAH, AND THAT WAS 12 RIGHT THERE.

YOU GOT TO HOLD UP.

I KNOW YOU'RE FRUSTRATED IS IS THIS FRESHMAN COMING IN?

YOU'VE BEEN CHASING GUYS.

ALL DAY LONG, BUT HE'S PLAYS ALREADY OVER.

HE'S ALREADY BOTH FEET OUT OF BOUNDS 15-YARD GAIN ON THE PLAY, ANOTHER 15, YARD PENALTY.

SO A 30-YARD SWING RIGHT HERE AND THAT PUTS THEM INSIDE THE 44.

FIRST DOWN PACEY.

SODOMY THE SWITCH RIGHT HERE.

THAT'S THE SHIP TO BLUNT THE RECEIVER OUT OF THE BACKFIELD AND A FLAG ON THE PLAY.

COULD BE A HOLD COMING BACK SHORT GAIN FOR TREY BLOUNT THE RECEIVER.

SO AGAIN, WE'VE SEEN JACKSON AND WE'VE YET TO SEE HIM HERE AS YOU MENTIONED THE LONG PLAY A MOMENT AGO, THE LONG DRIVE ON DEFENSE AS HE PLAYS BOTH WAYS.

WHEN ALL THE WAY DOWN ON DEFENSE.

WE HAVEN'T SEEN HIM.

WE'VE SEEN GEORGE FROM.

I WENT, MAINLY THE FRESHMAN PERRYMAN.

IT WAS BLUNT JUST IN OUT OF THE BACKFIELD AND NOW WE'VE GOT A PLAY CALLED HERE.

LET'S SEE WHO IT'S AGAINST.

ILLEGAL FORMATION AGAINST THE KNIGHTS TO THE REPLAY FIRST DOWN FIRST AND 15.

THIS TIME FROM THE 43 FITZGERALD IS WERE UNDER A MINUTE TO GO HERE.

THE THIRD CORRUGATION IS JOINING US.

PACE SCORED FIRST SEVEN.

NOTHING.

FITZGERALD CAME BACK IN TIME IT UP AND THEN A COUPLE OF TOUCHDOWNS IN THE SECOND QUARTER BY PACE ACADEMY, INCLUDING THE TOUCHDOWN PASS BY THE SOFTWARE GUNNER, FAULK, WITH THREE SECONDS TO GO MEET A 21-7 HALFTIME SCORE, FITZGERALD, JUST SCORED.

AND NOW CASE IS TRYING TO ANSWER FALK WITH THE KEEPER.

TAKES THE PASS.

IT'S AN INSIDE, THE 40 HEAD OF THE SIDELINES, OUT OF BOUNDS ARE ON THE 35, ABOUT AN EIGHT-YARD GAIN BY GOING TO 34 ACTUALLY.

SO BE A NINE YARD PICKUP IT APPEARS.

YEP AGAIN.

YEAH, BOUGHT USING HIS FEET TO MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN AND THEN GETTING IT TO WHERE SOME MANAGEABLE DOWN IN DISTANCE.

AND NOW YOU HAVE YOU WENT FROM FIRST AND LONG TO SECOND AND MEDIUM.

THEY'RE GOING TO TRY TO GET A FIRST DOWN OR GET IT TO THIRD AND MANAGEABLE.

FITZGERALD'S GOT TO REALLY BLOW UP RIGHT HERE.

THEY GOT AN OPPORTUNITY TO KEEP THEM OUT OF FIELD GOAL RANGE.

NOW, SECOND AND SIX AND THAT'S DEON JACKSON BACK OF THE GAME.

HE'S GONNA BLOCK UP FRONT FOG TO PASS THIS TO JACKSON, HE AVOIDS.

ONE DEFENDER STILL ON HIS FEET FIRST DOWN AND MORE INSIDE THE 25 SPINS SPINS.

AGAIN GETS IT INSIDE THE 20 HOLDS ON TO THE BALL.

THAT WAS IMPORTANT.

AND THAT MAY BE THE FINAL PLAY HERE.

IN THE THIRD QUARTER, AS A NICE PLAY RIGHT THERE FOG TO JACKSON.

I'D LIKE - PLAY DEVELOPED BRIAN.

YEAH.

WELL, THEY RAN A SCREEN AGAIN.

FITZGERALD'S ACTUALLY GOT HIS SNIPPED OUT, YOU KNOW, IT'S THE THIRD TIME THAT WE'VE SEEN THAT HAVE BACK SCREEN 2D ON THERE AND YOU KNOW, THEY HAD IT PLAYED WITHIN, YOU KNOW, A PLAYER MAKING A PLAY IN A PLAYER.

LISTEN TO PLAY.

AND YOU GET A FIRST DOWN FOR PACE ACADEMY GOING IN.

WELL, 22, FIRST DOWN, AS YOU CAN SEE BY PACE ACADEMY AND THEY LEAVE RIGHT NOW, BOO THREE-QUARTERS OF PAIR OF TURNOVERS AND THE THIRD QUARTER LEFT.

FITZGERALD GET BACK INTO IT.

BUT NOW THE NIGHTS ARE DRIVING.

CAN THEY CAPITALIZE ONE MORE QUARTER TO GO FOR THE GEORGIA DOME?

WE'RE BACK AFTER THIS.

QUESTIONS, CAN'T WAIT UNTIL MORNING.

SO I'M ONE OF MANY NURSES AT CIGNA WITH ANSWERS, ANYTIME DAY, OR NIGHT.

I'M LAUREN, AND I'VE GOT YOUR BACK, MISS GARNER FROM FOREST, PARK HIGH SCHOOL SPARKED.

AN INTEREST IN ME TO REALLY PUSH ME AND EDUCATION TO BE MORE THAN JUST A STUDENT ATHLETE.

HOW EACH AND EVERY DAY.

SHE CHALLENGED ME TO BE A LEADER, A ROLE MODEL AND SOMEBODY POSITIVE IN OUR COMMUNITY CAN THANK HER ENOUGH FOR, FOR WHAT ALL SHE'S DONE FOR ME.

AND THERE ARE TEACHERS JUST LIKE MISS GARNER, ALL OVER THE STATE OF GEORGIA TODAY.

THE NEW COLLEGE FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME AND CHICK-FIL-A FAN EXPERIENCE, BUT STANDS CLOSER TO THE GAME EXPERIENCE.

FEATURING OVER 30,000 SQUARE FEET OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL INTERACTIVE EXHIBITS TICKETS AVAILABLE AT CFB HALL.COM.

WHETHER YOU PLAN TO ATTEND A TWO-YEAR COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY OR GO STRAIGHT INTO THE WORLD OF WORK, THE GEORGEOUS ETA E, WORK-BASED, LEARNING PROGRAM TEACHES STUDENTS ESSENTIAL CAREER SKILLS THROUGH REAL-WORLD EXPERIENCES AND ON-THE-JOB TRAINING.

I'M NOT SICK.

SHE'S PERFECTLY HEALTHY, CIGNA COVERS PREVENTIVE, CARE THAT HAVING YOUR BACK.

WE'RE BACK AT THE GEORGIA DOME IN A GOOD.

LOOK AT TWO OF THE YOUNG AND TALENTED COACHES IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

THAT'S CHRIS SLADE, A PACE ACADEMY ON YOUR LEFT JAMES AND STRICKLAND OF FITZGERALD ON YOUR RIGHT.

IT'S FITZGERALD DOWN A TOUCHDOWN AS WE START THE FOURTH QUARTER RIGHT HERE.

AND THERE IS DEON JACKSON.

POWERING HIS WAY ON THE FIRST DOWN.

PLAY FOR A FIRST DOWN AND GOAL.

WHAT A JOB.

THEY'RE JUST HAVE THE 16 -YARD PASS.

PLAY FALK TO JACKSON TO SET THIS UP.

AND SO ALREADY, ANOTHER 11 YARDS HERE, AND THIS PAYS ACADEMY OFFENSE IS ON THE MOVE RIGHT NOW, TRYING TO GET TOUCHDOWN BACK THAT THEY JUST ALLOWED IN THE THIRD QUARTER.

YEAH.

I'M SORRY.

WE TALKED ABOUT THEM, REST IN DEON JACKSON.

NOW, HE'S BACK FRESH ON FIRST, CARRY BOUNCES OUTSIDE BREAKS A TACKLE AND GETS THE BALL INSIDE, THE 10-YARD LINE.

NO, KEEPING THAT OFFENSE GOING.

WE'VE GOT A LOT OF OPTIONS BACK THERE.

WE SAW THE FRESHMAN PERRYMAN WITH SOME NICE RUNS ON THIS DRIVE.

NOW YOU'VE GOT JACKSON BACK IN GEORGIA'S BENEFACTOR OF FAULT WITH HIS FEET.

ONCE IS LINED UP BACK THERE.

A LOT OF DIFFERENT OPTIONS FIRST AND GOAL.

RIGHT NOW, THE TRIPLE SET THE BACK HAND OFF UP FRONT AND JACK.

AND UP AND OVER TO THE FIVE, FOR THE SHORT GAIN OF 20 YARDS BRINGS UP SECOND AND GOAL.

YEAH, IT'S NOT A BAD JOB RIGHT THERE.

BOB FITZGERALD IN LINED UP IN TWO, TIGHT ENDS AND THE POWER I FORMATION, AND THEY ACTUALLY RAN THE BALL WITH THE POWER BACK TO OFFSET BACK, WHICH THAT TIME WAS DEON JACKSON.

AND SO GOOD JOB OF FITZGERALD HOLDING THEIR GROUND AND MAKING IT A SECOND AND GO.

YEAH, BUT CHRIS SLADE TALKED ABOUT HIS OFFENSIVE LINE, AND HE SAID, AND HE SAID CONFIDENCE AND HE FEELS ARE THE BEST GROUP IN THE STATE.

HE SAID, I FEEL THEY CAN.

WITH ANY BODY, IN ANY CLASSIFICATION, AND THE STATE, AND SO FAR, THEY HAVE SHOWN THAT WHAT A GREAT JOB, THEY'VE DONE BLOCKING FOR THE PAST AND ALSO WANT TO RUN, BUT NOT HERE AFTER GETTING OUT OF HARM'S WAY, SO FAR, BUT HE SETTLES FOR A BIG LOSS.

WHAT A GREAT MOVE THERE.

COULDN'T SEE.

NUMBER 76, REINDEER ANTSY BACK ON THE FIELD FOR FITZGERALD.

HE WAS ONE OF THE BIG BODIES.

CHASE & FALK, RIGHT THERE.

SO, I JUST START BRAGGING ABOUT THE OFFENSIVE LINE OF PACE AND FITZGERALD.

FINDS AN ANSWER FOR THEM RIGHT HERE.

YEAH.

WELL ANOTHER GOOD JOB, YOU KNOW BY THE BY THE FITZGERALD DEFENSIVE STAFF OF PUTTING GUYS IN POSITION TO MAKE THE PLAY, WHAT YOU'RE SEEING IS FAULT, YOU KNOW, OUT ATHLETE IN GUYS THAT ARE IN GOOD POSITION.

AGAIN, THEY TRIED TO BOOTLEG AGAIN, TRIED TO NAKED THE QUARTERBACK OUT AND YOU HAD DEFENSIVE END RIGHT THERE.

IN HIS FACE.

HE WAS ABLE TO ELUDE HIM AND, YOU KNOW, COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT WORSE SITUATION ON THIRD DOWN.

THERE IS HANDSOME THERE TO 11-YARD LOSS OUT.

SO NOW, THIRD AND GOAL FOR THE 16.

TALK WITH A HAND OFF.

THIS IS THE A JACKSON.

HE'S INSIDE FULL OF TOUCHDOWN ON PACE WITH THE ANSWER, 16 YARDS FOR DEON JACKSON AND HIS SECOND TOUCHDOWN OF THE GAME AND PACE ANSWERS BACK WITH THE SCORE AS A GREAT CALL BY PACE, YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE THINGS YOU TALKED ABOUT AS A COACH, YOU GOT THIRD AND LONG SITUATIONS IS A GREAT TIME TO RUN SCREAMS AND DRAWS.

AND YOU SEE RIGHT HERE, A DRAW PLAY AND THE BIG HOME RUN, RUN BY PASTY AND DEON JACKSON.

THE THIRD.

YOU KNOW, YOU'RE GOING TO LOOK FOR SCREENS AND DRAWERS AND BACK TO THE BLOCKING OF THE TCSG TOUCHDOWN REPLAY.

HE WENT 16 YARDS, UNTOUCHED.

THERE WAS NOBODY EVEN CLOSE TO HIM.

YEAH.

WELL FITZGERALD HAD GOING INTO MORE OF A NICKEL SITUATION BECAUSE OF THE PAST AND SITUATION THAT THEY WERE IN AND HAD GUYS DROPPING BACK IN COVERAGE, DIDN'T REALLY HAVE A LOT OF GUYS, PRESSURING BECAUSE OF THE DID DOWN AND DISTANCE, BUT UNFORTUNATELY DIDN'T WORK OUT WELL FOR THEM.

SO, BASIC ATOMY, 80-YARD DRIVE, AND THEIR BACK UP BY TWO TOUCHDOWNS.

E, 814 10:34 TO GO AT THE GEORGIA DOME TODAY, COMPANIES IN THE AEROSPACE, ADVANCED MANUFACTURING AND FILM INDUSTRIES, NEED, SKILLED WORKERS.

AND THE EARNING POTENTIAL IS HIGH GO BUILD.

GEORGIA CAN SHOW YOU WHERE THE JOBS ARE AND WHAT SKILLS, YOU NEED TO GET THEM AND THE TECHNICAL COLLEGE SYSTEM OF GEORGIA HAS FAST AFFORDABLE, TRAINING FOR THESE GREAT PAYING CAREERS BUILD YOUR BLUEPRINT FOR SUCCESS AT GOBUILDGEORGIA .COM, AND LOOK TO THE TECHNICAL COLLEGE SYSTEM OF GEORGIA.

GEORGIA TO PUT YOUR PLAN INTO ACTION.

SO, PACE ACADEMY NOW, TEN AND A HALF MINUTES AWAY FROM POSSIBLY THEIR FIRST STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME, AND IT CAN GET THIS PACE.

ACADEMY IS CERTAINLY A DIFFERENT PROGRAM THAN WHAT IT WAS A FEW YEARS AGO.

A PROGRAM AND, YOU KNOW, THE FOOTBALL PROGRAM JUST BEGAN BACK IN 2008, COACH SLADE CAME TO TOWN THAT THE PART OF THE STAFF AND 2012.

HE INHERITED A TEAM.

YOU GUYS THAT ONLY HAVE THREE WINS HIS FIRST YEAR AS A HEAD COACH IN 2013.

HE HAD FIVE WINS 2014 7.

WINS THIS YEAR.

THEY HAVE 12 WERE WINS, RIGHT?

NOW IN A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP COULD MAKE IT 13, HE SAID IT ALL STARTED WITH CHANGING THE CULTURE AND THAT HAD ALL TO DO WITH STRUCTURE AND ACCOUNTABILITY.

HE SAID, THESE GUYS HAVE TO LOVE EACH OTHER OUT THERE ON THE FIELD AND PLAY FOR EACH OTHER, FROM THE BEGINNING, TO THE END OF THE GAME.

AND THAT'S HOW YOU CAN TAKE HOME YOUR FIRST STATE TITLE.

YOU KNOW, GREAT POINT.

YEAH.

HE ADDED REALLY NO SET GOALS.

HE SAID, JUST LET'S BUILD A PROGRAM, DO IT THE RIGHT WAY.

PEOPLE BELIEVED IN WHAT THEY WERE TRYING TO DO AND IT SHOWS RIGHT HERE.

THIRD-DOWN PLAY COACH.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT MAYBE AGAIN, THEY FITS.

I'M LOOKING FOR A PASS PLAY POSSIBLY AND HE JUST RUNS RIGHT IN ON THE SCORING DRIVE, 12 PLAYS, 80 YARDS, THREE MINUTES, 42 SECONDS RIGHT THERE IN THE TCSG SCORING DRIVE.

YEAH, JUST SMART COACHING, YOU KNOW, THE CHANCE FOR YOU TO COMPLETE, YOU KNOW, 18 YARD PASS IS VERY DIFFICULT.

AND SO WHAT YOU DO IS YOU TRY TO, YOU KNOW, SEE IF THEY'LL RUN THEMSELVES OUT OF POSITION.

THEY RAN THE COUNTER.

THERE WERE ABLE TO GET A TOUCHDOWN.

AND SO NOW IT FITS YOUR OLD BANK WITH TO BACK DOWN BY TWO TOUCHDOWNS.

WE BEGIN FIRST AND 10 FROM THE 20, AFTER THE TOUCHBACK G KEEPS IT HIMSELF FOR A SHORT GAIN RIGHT HERE.

AND YOU KNOW, THE ONE THING THAT COACH TALKED ABOUT COACH STRICKLAND SAID IT, IF YOU CAN, THERE'S ONE WORD TO DESCRIBE HIS PLAYERS, IT'S RESILIENT AND CERTAINLY THAT WILL BE PUT TO THE TEST RIGHT HERE.

NOW AS WE APPROACH THE 10 -MINUTE MARK AND DOWN, 2814 CAN HIS TEAM BOUNCED BACK AGAIN, GREAT DEFENSIVE EFFORT IN THE THIRD QUARTER TO FORCE TWO FUMBLES.

NOW THE OFFENSE HAS GOT TO GET UP AND DO SOMETHING HERE.

G WITH THE KEEPER OF HIMSELF ON SECOND DOWN, GETS A GOOD GAME THAT WILL BRING UP THIRD AND SHORT RIGHT NOW FOR THE PURPLE HURRICANE WITH THE CLOCK RUNNING.

YES, TO PLENTY OF TIME LEFT IN THIS GAME.

AGAIN.

YOU SEE G RUNNING THE BALL OR THE COUNTER PLAY WITH HIM.

GETTING POSITIVE YARDS REALLY CLOSE TO BREAKING.

THE MAKING SOMETHING SPECIAL HAD FOR ME.

FITZGERALD'S GOT TO STICK TO WHAT THEY'VE BEEN COACHED TO DO, CONTINUE TO RUN THE FOOTBALL AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

WE'RE GOING TO WRITE HERE, THE HANDOFF TO HAIR.

HIS FIRST DOWN AND MORE 35 AT THE 42-YARD LINE, 41, YARD LINE OF PAYS.

WHAT A HUGE GAME RIGHT THERE FOR MONTRELL HARRIS.

31 YARD GATE AROUND THE RIGHT SIDE FOR THE SPEEDY HARRIS.

OH, YEAH.

RIGHT ON CUE.

WE JUST TALKED ABOUT IT.

IT'S GOT TO STICK TO THEIR PRINCIPLES.

STICK TO WHAT THEY'VE BEEN DOING ALL YEAR, WHICH IS RUN THE FOOTBALL AND SOMETHING POSITIVE HAPPEN.

NOW, THEY'RE QUICKLY MOVING DOWN THE FIELD WITH A CHANCE TO CUT IT BACK DOWN TO A 1.

GAME AND NIKKI MENTIONED EARLIER.

HE WAS ONE OF THE THREE FOOTBALL MEMBERS OF THAT FOUR BY 100 STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM AND THEIR TRACK LAST YEAR.

HERE'S THE FIRST PATH.

THAT'S COMPLETED TO THE 10 TO THE SIX POINTS.

WELL, THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I WATCHED ON FILM OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

THEY LOVE TO HIT MANTRA HARRIS ON THE SCENE PASS, YOU KNOW IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT THEY DO, THAT'S WHAT THEY LIKE TO DO WITH HIM.

HIM PUT HIM AT HALFBACK AND PLAY ACTION AND SEND THEM UP THE SCENE.

HE'S PROBABLY GOT SIX OR SEVEN TOUCHDOWNS THIS SEASON OFF THE EXACT SAME PLAY.

BEEN ABLE TO PLAY ACTION AND HIT HIM ON THE SCENE.

JAMES GRAHAM.

JUST HIS THIRD PASS OF THE ENTIRE GAME.

THIS ONE GOES FOR 41-YARD FOR MONTRELL HARRIS AND BOY WHAT AN OFFENSIVE SHOWING.

WE'VE GOT RIGHT HERE BY BOTH TEAMS.

EXTRA POINT IS GOOD RIGHT THERE.

WE'LL TAKE A TIMEOUT HERE AT THE GEORGIA DOME.

WE HAVE GOT A BALLGAME.

DO NOT GO ANYWHERE.

SO PAY THE GUY WHO COMES BACK AT FIRST AND TEN, A GOOD LOOK RIGHT THERE AT MONTREUX HAIR.

AS YOU'VE DONE SO MUCH OF THE RUNNING GAME IS WEAK, BUT HE WAS INVOLVED ON ALL SEVEN.

HE'S IN THAT DRY.

BUT AGAIN, THE GREAT TOUCH RIGHT THERE, 41 YARD RECEPTION ON THE TOUCHDOWN FROM JAMES GRAHAM.

YEAH, IT'S ESG, TOUCHDOWN REPLAY.

OH, YEAH, G DID A GOOD JOB OF JUST RUNNING A NEAT.

THE BALL AND CATCHING IT AND MAKING IT TO THE PAY.

DIRT IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS WHERE YOU JUST LOVE SOMEBODY TO SLEEP RUNNING THE FOOTBALL AND THEY HIT HIM WITH THE PLAY ACTION.

JOB, HE'S DONE.

AGAIN.

THEY BOTTLED UP JD KING.

A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE GETTING INVOLVED RIGHT HERE.

LITTLE BOBBLE BY THE FRESHMAN PERRYMAN STIFF ARM OUT OF BOUNDS.

SHORT GAIN ON FIRST DOWN BRINGS UP SECOND AND ABOUT 7.

FOR PACE ACADEMY PACE ACADEMY.

ABOUT EIGHT MILES AWAY FROM THE GEORGIA DOME FITZGERALD ABOUT 180 MILES AWAY FROM THE GEORGIA DOME.

SO, BIT OF A DIFFERENCE BY THE TIME PACES.

KIDS WOKE UP, FITZGERALD IS PROBABLY ALMOST A MAKING WILL SEE, IT WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS AND SEE HOW THAT AFFECTS THE TEAM'S COMING DOWN THE STRETCH.

WHEN WE PLAY AGAIN.

IT'S A BIT OF PRESSURE TO GET.

HE'S GOT SOME SPEED LOOKING FOR THE FIRST DOWN AND HE'S CLOSE TO IT.

THEY'RE GOING TO MARK HIM DOWN AT THE 30.

231, AND THAT WILL BE ENOUGH FOR A FIRST DOWN.

LET'S SEE IF THEY STOP IN MEASURE.

YEAH, THINK WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A FACE MASK PENALTY.

FACE MASK ON THE DEFENSE 15 -YARD PENALTY, FROM THE END OF ONE PERCENT.

WELL, THAT'S A TOUGH CALL.

FITZGERALD'S HAD A COUPLE OF PILLS.

HE'S ON DEFENSE THAT HAVE REALLY HURT THEM.

COACH STRICKLAND IS HE CAN'T BELIEVE THAT AND HE SAID, HE SAID, YOU KNOW, WE KIND OF REALLY YOUNG PLAYERS RIGHT HERE.

AND HERE'S ANOTHER LOOK AT IT.

AND THERE'S, THAT'S AN EASY CALL.

THERE'S A FACE MASK.

THAT'S AN EASY CALL RIGHT THERE.

YEP.

THERE IS HAMPTON AND LINEBACKER.

HE'S A SENIOR BUT COACH TALKED ABOUT.

HE SAID THERE WERE A RAGTAG BUNCH AND BOY.

WE GET TOGETHER.

DO SOMETHING WHO WE STILL SOME HEAD-SCRATCHING THINGS.

WE JUST CAN'T QUITE, WE WONDER WHAT ARE YOU DOING OUT THERE?

TOUGH PENALTY THERE.

SO NOW, FIRST DOWN FROM THE 46 KARAMAN AGAIN, OUTSIDE, HE'S PAST MIDFIELD, AND STUMBLES INTO FITZGERALD TERRITORY.

BUT YET, AGAIN, ANOTHER BIG PLAY ON FIRST DOWN FOR THE KNIGHTS.

YEAH, THEY GOT TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO SLOW THEM DOWN ON FIRST DOWN, AND GET HIM.

GET THEMSELVES IN A CHANCE, GIVE THEMSELVES A CHANCE TO BE ABLE TO GET OFF THE FIELD RIGHT NOW, YOU KNOW, PACES WINNING THE FIRST DOWN BATTLE.

SO, SUCK IT IN FOR RIGHT NOW.

HE'S LINING UP IN THE EYE.

IT'S FALCONER CENTER, ANOTHER RUNNING PLAY HARRIMAN.

AGAIN.

IT'S A COUPLE OF YARDS, BRINGS UP THIRD AND SHORT.

SO DOWN AND NICKI NOTO FROM MORE OF THIS FITZGERALD DEFENSE NIKKI.

ABSOLUTELY.

YOU GUYS WILL LOOK THIS DEFENSIVE LINE AS PLAYING WITH A LOT OF HEART, AND THEY'RE ACTUALLY PLAYING WITHOUT THEIR DEFENSIVE LINE.

COACH RANDALL SCHULTZ.

HE HAD A HEART ATTACK ON MONDAY.

COACHES ONLY 39 YEARS OLD.

WE WERE TOLD THAT HE IS DOING BETTER.

HOWEVER, HE IS STILL IN SOUTH GEORGIA.

WE JUST WANT TO LET HIM KNOW THAT.

HEY, YOU'RE THEY'RE PRAYING FOR YOU AND THEY ARE PLAYING THEIR HEART OUT FOR YOU OUT HERE TODAY.

SO A LOT OF LOVE GOING TO COOK SCHULTZ IN SOUTH GEORGIA.

WE WERE TOLD THAT WHATEVER MEDICINE THESE ON THAT.

THEY'RE CALLING IT THE HURRICANE, THAT'S GREAT.

THANK YOU.

THANKS FOR THAT.

SO WE OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS GOING OUT TO HIM AND FITZGERALD FAMILY AS WELL.

RUNNING PLAY RIGHT THERE BY THE BIG MAN.

REALICE, GEORGE.

YOU'VE GOT A THIRD AND SHORT, THAT'S WHAT YOU DO.

YOU GIVE IT TO THE BIG MAN AND WHAT A GAME HE HAS HAD ALREADY 55 YARDS WITH THREE QUARTERS FOR GEORGE.

AGE AND HAD THE TOUCHDOWN EARLIER AS WELL.

JACKSON AS A TOUCHDOWN.

IS THIS RUNNING GAME FOR PACE?

DOING A NICE JOB FOR THE CLOCK, RUNNING AT THIS POINT FIRST DOWN FOR THE PURPLE HURRICANE 42.

BULK BACK OF THE GUN.

IT'S GEORGE NEXT TO IT TO HIS, RIGHT?

AND HE GETS TO CARRY PAST THE 40S DO ON HIS FEET TO THE 35 7 YARDS.

AND AGAIN THAT PAYS FORMULA OF FIVE YARDS OR MORE ON FIRST DOWN, PAYS OFF, AGAIN FOR THEM AND THE CLOCK CONTINUES TO RUN.

YEAH, THEY MADE A WEIRD.

FITZGERALD'S CAN CONSTANTLY IN BAD SHAPE WITH THE DOWN IN DISTANCE.

THEY KNOW PACE IS DOING A GOOD JOB OF GETTING HUGE CHUNKS OF YARDS ON FIRST DOWN AND IT JUST PUT THEM IN A BAD.

SITUATION, YOU KNOW, 2ND AND SHORT YOU CAN RUN IT OR THROW IT, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE IN A BAD SITUATION.

SECOND DOWN AND THREE.

NOW FROM THE 35, MOM.

QUIT PAST TWO BLUNTS CAN AVOID THE, HE CAN AVOID THE TACKLE, THESE RUNNING BACKWARDS.

LET'S SEE WHAT THEY MARK.

IS FORWARD PROGRESS.

HE MIGHT GET THEM TO THE 35.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AND SEE THEY'RE GOING TO MARK THEM DOWN AT THE 39.

SO IT'S A LOSS OF ONE ON THE PLAY.

YEAH, HUGE MISTAKE.

THERE BY BLUNT.

ALL I WANTED TO DO IS KIND OF GET THE BALL OUT THERE AND SEE IF HE CAN MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN, BUT HE RAN BACKWARDS AND THAT'S NET CAUSED A HUGE LOSS.

THAT WAS ACTUALLY BIG TIME IN FAVOR OF THESE GERALD SO THEY COMPETED OF COMPLETED A FORWARD PASS, BUT ACTUALLY GET A NEGATIVE YARDAGE PLAYS.

YEAH, WHAT ABOUT THE 35 AT A THIRD AND TO, INSTEAD IT'S BACK TO THE THIRD AND SEVEN.

I'M SORRY.

THIRD AND THREE AND WOULD HAVE BEEN, BUT A THIRD AND 7 IS 10 FOR YARD DIFFERENCE.

AND I'D LOVE TO PLAY RIGHT NOW AND YOU'RE OUT OF BOUNDS.

THE CLOCK IS STOPPED.

TIME OUT IN THE FIELD AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

THESE GUYS HAVEN'T MET CLOCK.

YOU WANT TO RESET THE GAME CLOCK?

WE'RE NOT SURE.

THE RESENTED.

THE BUSIEST AT 25 SECONDS, PLEASE IN THE PLAY CLOCK.

POSSIBLY 220.

EVERY GO.

OKAY, 25 SECONDS.

THEY HAVEN'T STARTED THE PLAY CLOCK YET IN THE BASKET NOW TO START, AND NOW, THE ROLE TO PLAY CLOCK AND THE GAME CLOCK AS WELL, 642 AND COUNTING BALKAN, THE GUN, THIRD DOWN PLAY.

THAT'S A LATERAL TO BLUNT.

WHO DOES THE REST FIRST DOWN AND MORE.

HE'S PAST THE 25 INSIDE THE 20, AND WHAT A GREAT PLAY CALL RIGHT THERE, A HUGE PLAY.

HAYES IS DOING A GREAT JOB OF, GETTING THE BALL TO DIFFERENT ATHLETES, AT DIFFERENT TIMES OF THE GAME WITH THOSE ATHLETES STRENGTH IN MIND.

SO, YOU KNOW, ROTATE IT BACKS RIGHT THERE AND PUT BLOOD IN THE POSITION WHERE HE COULD MAKE THE BEST PLAY FOR THAT FOR THAT TIME PERIOD.

THEY ALL HAVE A DIFFERENT SKILL SET AND PUTS THEM IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE FILM, THAT HE'S NOT IN THE BACKFIELD.

HE'S OUT ALREADY IN THE SLOT AND THAT WAS ACTUALLY A LADDER WAS THROWN BEHIND HIM.

BUT THE ANGLE, HE TOOK HIS ABLE TO ALREADY BE A MOMENTUM AND RUN THE BALL UP FIELD FOR FIRST DOWN AND A REALLY BIG GAIN ON THIRD AND TWO HUGE PLAYERS ARE CLOCKING CHOOSE TO RUN TOWARD THE 6-MINUTE.

MARK PACE ACADEMY ALREADY OVER 400 YARDS OF OFFENSE HERE, DEON JACKSON NOW WHITESIDE HE'S INSIDE.

THE FIVE MARKET OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE 64.

ANOTHER FIRST DOWN, THE FIRST AND GOING OUT FOR THE NIGHT.

YEAH, YOU SEE HIM FACE ACADEMY AGAIN DOES USE THEIR BEST ATHLETES AND PUT THEM IN POSITION WHERE THEY ARE RUNNING PLAYS THAT SUIT THOSE PLAYERS, BUT ACTUALLY, YOU KNOW, WORKING FAVOR FOR PAY.

SO AGAIN, USING DEON JACKSON, RUN THE FOOTBALL PLAY BEFORE THEY USED.

DID TO THROW THE FOOTBALL AND THEY GOT BASEL GANGSTA.

AND AGAIN, EVERYONE TOUCHING THE BALL JUST LIKE THEY'VE DONE THIS ENTIRE GAME.

IF ONE GETTING A PIECE OF ASPHALT UNDER CENTER HAND OFF, NOW TO CATCH JOHNSON LOOKING TO FIND A SEAM INSIDE AND GAINS A YARD AND A LITTLE MORE TO THE FIVE.

I'LL BRING UP SECOND DOWN.

SO PACE ACADEMY, ONCE AGAIN CLOCK TICKING DOWN, NEVER HAD BEEN TO THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME BEFORE A PROGRAM THAT BEGIN PLAYING FOOTBALL BACK IN 2008.

AND AS THEY CAME ENGINE, COACH SLADE COMING IN DEFENSIVE QUOTE, COACH OF FOUR.

IS IT GO NOW HIS THIRD YEAR?

AS HEAD?

COACH CHANGING, THE CULTURE AT PACE ACADEMY.

THEY JUST GOT THE NEW STADIUM BUILT TWO NEW FACILITIES UP THERE.

AND NOW, HERE THEY ARE TRYING TO CAPITALIZE WITH A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP HERE, VERY EARLY IN THE PROGRAM'S HISTORY, READ.

THAT'S A LITTLE MISDIRECTION RIGHT THERE.

THAT'S DEON JACKSON, IS HE?

AND YES, THE TOUCHDOWN SPINNING HIS WAY INTO THE END ZONE AND PASTE IT ON THE BOARD AGAIN.

YEAH, THAT WAS ACTUALLY THE SAME PLAY.

THEY SCORE ON THE LAST POSSESSION.

THEY WENT.

WHAT?

A COUNTER OR DRAW PLAY AND WAS ABLE TO GET DEON JACKSON INTO THE END ZONE.

TCSG TOUCHDOWN REPLAY, IT'S JACKSON.

ONCE AGAIN, THE MISDIRECTION THANKS TO HIS REICH, EXACTLY, THE WAY.

NICE SPIN, MOVE AWAY FROM A TACKLE, AND GOES INTO THE END ZONE.

AND AGAIN, JUST SO MANY DIFFERENT WEAPONS RIGHT NOW, OUT OF THE BACKFIELD.

IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE YOUNG PERRIMAN, THE FRESHMAN THIS COMING OFF THE BENCH WITH US TO A COUPLE OF KEY.

RUNS THE POWER OF GEORGE, THE ATHLETICS.

IT THE LETTUCE IS MM OF A JACKSON.

DOES A GREAT JOB MIXING IT UP ALL THE WAY AROUND?

THEY USE SEVERAL GUYS ON THAT DRIVE.

THEY USED THE BIG FULLBACK GEORGE.

THEY USE THE RECEIVER BLUNT.

AND THEN THEY USE DEON JACKSON.

ALSO, YOU KNOW AND FALK ALSO DID A GOOD JOB OF MANAGING THE WHOLE SITUATION IS SO GREAT JOB OF USING ALL THE GUYS AND GETTING INTO THE END ZONE.

AGAIN.

YOU CAN SEE THE DRAW PLAY.

YOU CAN SEE DEON JACKSON SEEING THE GOAL LINE AND THEN REFUSING TO BE DENIED.

TO PACE ACADEMY BEGAN THESE PLAYOFFS AS THE NUMBER FOUR SEED OUT OF REGION, 6, IF YOU LOOK AT THE TCSG SCORING DRIVE, THIS 11 PLANES 80 YARDS, FOUR MINUTES AND FOUR SECONDS RIGHT NOW.

AND DEON JACKSON, HIS SECOND RUSHING TOUCHDOWN OF THE GAME.

THIS PAYS OFF AND THROWING UP MORE THAN 400 YARDS ON FITZGERALD AND MEL LOOK ON THE OTHER SIDE.

NOW, IT'S THE PURPLE HURRICANE.

HE SCORED VERY QUICKLY LAST TIME OUT.

CAN THEY GET IT DONE AGAIN AT 5:18 JACKSON?

BY THE WAY WHEN HUH?

THE 13 YARDS AND 17 CARRIES AND THREE TOUCHDOWNS HERE AT THE GAME.

WHAT, WHAT A GAME FOR THE STAR RUNNING BACK TO PACE ACADEMY IS DOING A GOOD JOB, YOU KNOW PLAYING ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL.

ALSO TALKED ABOUT HIM GETTING A LITTLE FATIGUED, THEIR LEG RESTING THEM AND BROUGHT THEM BACK AND NOW HE'S COMING BACK BETTER THAN EVER RUNNING.

THE FOOTBALL PACE IS TRYING TO TAKE CONTROL OF THE GAME.

A STOP HERE.

WE'LL PUT THEM IN GREAT SHAPE, A SCORE BY FITZGERALD WILL KEEP THE KEEP THE TENSION AND THE PRESSURE ON PACE.

YEAH.

THEY SCORED VERY QUICKLY LAST TIME, WE'LL SEE IF THEY CAN DO IT AGAIN.

KICKOFF, GOES INTO THE END ZONE AND SO WILL GO FIRST AND 20 RIGHT NOW.

AND SO NOW LET'S SEE WHAT FITZGERALD CAN ANSWER AGAIN THIS A UNIT RIGHT NOW WITH NO SENIORS ON OFFENSE, DON'T SENIOR STARTERS.

IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT THEY'VE DONE RECENTLY, 15 STRAIGHT, PLAYOFF APPEARANCES, BUT THEY HAD THEM IN THE TITLE.

GAMES IS 2000.

EVEN SEE HERE.

THE SEMIFINALS SECOND ROUND AND THE QUARTERFINALS AS WELL.

IN FACT, I BELIEVE THE SEVEN LAST EIGHT YEARS.

THEY'VE BEEN TO THE QUARTERFINALS.

LOOK AT THREE.

OVERTIME, LOSS OF JEFFERSON BACK IN 2012.

THAT'S A HEARTBREAKER.

THESE PURPLE HURRICANE USED TO PLAYING DEEP IN A NOVEMBER FOR TRYING TO CAPITALIZE HERE AND BOY, THEY'VE GOT TO GET SOME WORK DONE.

IF THEY'RE TO GET THEIR FIRST STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

SINCE 1948 THAT LAST TIME WE WERE IN THE TITLE GAME HERE, IT IS.

BACK IN 2000 FITZGERALD AND TAKING ON JACKSON AND COMING UP SHORT IN THE SEMI-FINAL IN THIS GAME.

THEY'LL AGAIN THEY WENT ON TO WIN AND SO THEY WANT TO WIN THE SEMIFINAL GAME AND THEN LOST IN THE TITLE GAME.

LAST TIME.

THEY PLAYED IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP ACCIDENTAL.

SEMIFINALS PLAYED HERE IN THE GEORGIA DOME.

SO ON FIRST DOWN RIGHT THERE, SHORT GAIN BRINGS UP SECOND DOWN AND SIX BEGIN TO CONFIDENCE TO BE A FACTOR RIGHT NOW, AS WE TICK UNDER THE FIVE-MINUTE, MARK, FITZGERALD NEEDS TWO TOUCHDOWNS RIGHT HERE TO CATCH UP WITH PACE.

YEAH, FITZGERALD GOT TO CONTINUE TO DO IT.

THEY DO TRUST IN THEIR SYSTEM.

AND WHAT THEY'VE, WHAT THEY'VE BEEN CAUGHT FOR DOING WHAT THEY'VE BEEN COACHED TO DO, AND I THINK THEY'LL BE FINE.

THEY GOT TO FIND A WAY TO KEEP THESE CHAINS, MOVING A STOP RIGHT HERE BY PACE, YOU KNOW, CAN ALMOST, YOU KNOW, SEAL THE VICTORY FOR THEM.

YEAH, YOU FEEL RIGHT NOW WHETHER KIND OF TRYING TO RUN A NO-HUDDLE, THAT WAS A JD KING ON THE SHORT CARRY RIGHT THERE AT THIRD FOR AND KING NOW IS GOING TO SLOUCH TO THE LEFT.

EMPTY BACKFIELD FOR GRAHAM ON THIRD DOWN.

HE KEEPS IT HIMSELF.

BUT WILL BE SHORT OF A FIRST DOWN.

AND SO A CRUCIAL.

PLAY THE BALL GAME RIGHT HERE FOR FITZGERALD, THAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO GO FOR IT ON FOURTH AND THREE IN THEIR OWN TERRITORY IS A CLOCK WINDS DOWN TOWARDS FOUR MINUTES.

YEAH, HUGE.

FOURTH DOWN PLAY.

FITZGERALD.

THREE TIMEOUTS.

LEFT SPACE HAS TO FOURTH AND THREE FROM THE 27TH HEADLOCK TO HARRIS BEHIND THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE CASE STOPS THEM ON FOURTH DOWN IN THE KNIGHTS DEFENSE HOLES.

THEY WILL TAKE OVER DEEP IN FITZGERALD TERRITORY WITH UNDER 4 MINUTES TO GO IN THIS GAME.

YEAH.

THEY TRIED TO RUN TO REACH BLADE.

IT HAS SUCCESS RUNNING IT.

UNFORTUNATELY.

MONTRELL.

HARRIS WAS STOPPED.

JUST SHORT OF THE FIRST DOWN AGAIN, A GOOD JOB.

USING HANDS GETTING OFF BLOCKS AND RUNNING FLAT DOWN THE LINE BY THE PACE DEFENSE.

HUGE STOP AND A CHANCE TO REALLY PUT A NAIL IN THE COFFIN RIGHT HERE WITH THE TOUCHDOWN.

WELL, PACE ACADEMY, THE WAY, FITZGERALD ONLY TWO FIRST DOWNS.

HERE, IN THIS FOURTH QUARTER HERE IN THE SECOND HALF.

AND TALK FOR THEM.

TOUGH GOING.

SO PACE.

NOW.

I'M TRYING TO MILK THIS CLOCK UP BY TWO TOUCHDOWNS.

THEY CONTROL HER DESTINY.

TALK ON THE ROLLOUT.

LOOKING FOR A STORE TO GET SOMETHING.

GOING GOES DOWN IN BOUNDS.

IT'S A HEADY PLAY BY THE SOPHOMORE TO KEEP THE CLOCK RUNNING AGAIN.

WE'VE SEEN THE SAME TYPE OF ACTION, BOOTLEG AND NAKED ACTION.

A PLAY FAKE TO THE RIGHT AND HIM HOOTING PLAY.

FAKE TO THE LEFT HIM MOVING BACK TO THE RIGHT AGAIN.

FITZGERALD'S GOT DEFENDERS IN POSITION, BUT THEY'RE THEY'RE NOT ABLE TO MAKE THE PLAY FALK HAS OUT.

ATHLEAN THEM WITH HIS FEET AND HIS BRAIN.

I'M REALLY IMPRESSED WITH BOTH THESE SOPHOMORE QUARTERBACKS.

BUT WHEN A JOB GUNNER FAULK IS DONE AGAIN.

HE WAS NINE OF NINE OF THE FIRST HALF ROOFERS SCORE, JUST BEFORE THE HALF.

MILKING THE CLOCK DOWN, THE 7-MINUTE PART 7, THE SECONDS ON THE PLAY CLOCK BEFORE HE DOES, FINALLY SNAP THE BALL AND KNOW, VERY LITTLE GAIN RIGHT THERE ON THAT PLAY.

TALK TO COACH LADIES, YOU KNOW, THEY HAD TWO BACK-TO-BACK LOSSES IN THE MID-SEASON.

HE SAID, REALLY AFTER THE GAC LAWS.

HE SAID, LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT WILLIE WHO WE ARE.

GIVE IT TIME OUT NOW BY FITZGERALD.

MARK, THEY HAVE TWO TIMEOUTS LEFT AND HE SAID REALLY FELT THE LOSS HAS MADE THEM A BETTER MORE CONFIDENT TEAM.

THEY REALLY HAD TO STOP AND LOOK WITHIN AND KIND OF FIGURE OUT WHO THEY WERE.

HE SAID, THE KEY IS AGAIN, THEY REALLY PAY ATTENTION TO COACHING STAFF AT BOUGHT INTO WHAT THEY TRIED TO DO IN THESE THREE YEARS AND ALL THAT REALLY CAME IN TO PLAY FOR THEM HERE IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE SEASON.

DO YOU HAVE A TIME OUT HERE ON THE FIELD BY FITZGERALD?

HEY, IF YOU'VE BEEN PATIENTLY, WAITING FOR THE RETURN OF SHERLOCK, YOU WERE IN FOR A TREAT ON NEW YEAR'S DAY.

THE ABOMINABLE BRIDE IN.

90 MINUTES HOLIDAY SPECIAL IS COMING TO GPB AND THE EPISODE FEATURES A MAJOR TWIST.

IT SAID, AN 1890S LONDON, BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH, AND MARTIN FREEMAN STAR ALONG WITH MANY OTHER FAMILIAR FACES FROM THE REGULAR SERIES.

IT'S A NEW YEAR AND A NEW SHERLOCK.

THE ABOMINABLE BRIDE MAYOR'S FRIDAY, JANUARY 1ST AT 9 P.M. ON.

IT'S TOTALLY, IT'S ELEMENTARY WATSON.

WHAT HAS TO HAPPEN RIGHT HERE, RIGHT?

YEAH.

LET ME HE'S GERALD GOT TO GET A STOP AND TWO SCORES OR THE GAME IS OVER 30 FOR RIGHT NOW.

REALITY'S SETTING.

IN FOR FITZGERALD, GOT TO FIND A WAY TO STOP THIS PACE OFFENSE, THAT HAS REALLY DONE ALMOST ALL THE THEY WANT TO DO COUPLE OF FUMBLES LOST IN THE THIRD QUARTER.

OTHERWISE, IT'S BEEN ALL PACE.

NICE JOB HERE BY JACKSON ON THE SCREENPLAY TO GET OUT AND LOOKS LIKE HE'S GOT A FIRST DOWN 3RD AND 5 FOR THE SMART PLAY THERE BY FOG.

YEAH, THAT PLAY EFFECTIVELY, THAT LITTLE SHORT SCREEN.

THEY WAIT FOR THE, FOR THE, FOR THE LINE OF RELEASE THE DEFENSIVE LINE.

AND IN THIS POPOVER, THEIR HANDS.

YEAH, IT'S A GREAT JOB, YOU KNOW, BULK IS DOING A GOOD JOB OF GETTING THE BALL IN THERE.

I MEAN, THEY IT HASN'T BEEN WIDE OPEN, YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES WIDE OPEN IS EASY TO MAKE A COMPLETION, BUT FITZGERALD IS ACTUALLY BEING CLOSE IN PROXIMITY TO MAKING A PLAY.

FALK IS PUT THE BALL WITH ONLY HIS MAN CAN GET IT AND THEN HE AND JACKSON'S MADE IT HAPPY AFTER CATCHING.

THE, I THINK HE'S ONLY REALLY ONE.

THAT WAS THE THE ONE THE 11 -YARD LOSS ON THE SCRAMBLE.

REALIS GEORGE.

AND THEY'RE GOING TO SAY HE WAS DOWN AT ABOUT THE ONE FOOT LINE.

YEAH, BUT EVEN ON THE SECOND THEY GOT FOUGHT IN THE STEEL IS HE STILL MADE IT REALLY HARD, YOU KNOW, AND HE STEPPED OUT OF BOUNDS MORE THAN ANYTHING WAS ABLE TO ELUDE TO TACKLERS.

HE'S JUST OUTSTANDING WITH THE SPEAK IN HIS BRAIN AND HE CAME BACK WITH A THIRD -DOWN PLAY.

AGAIN, THE RUNNING PLAY TO JACKSON REALICE GEORGE TRYING TO GET IN HERE FROM THE ONE FOOT LINE AND HE SAID, SAY THAT HE DID.

YOU SEE THE SCORE.

OKAY, I DIDN'T SEE MY HANDS UP RIGHT TOUCHDOWN.

THERE WE GO.

WELL, HOLD ON.

TO GET IT.

NO, HOLD ON.

HOLD ON.

THE I NEVER SAW ANYBODY.

THEY NEVER SIGNALED THE TOUCHDOWN.

WE GOT A BAND PLAYING BUT THEY SAY IT'S ON THE BOARD.

TOTALLY SPOT THE BALL.

IT 3-YARD LINE.

I'M ASSUMING HE'S YOURS.

THERE IT IS.

I DIDN'T SEE ANYBODY.

I DIDN'T SEE ANYBODY THEIR HANDS OUT.

ALL RIGHT.

SO TOUCHDOWN, BOREALIS GEORGE, SORRY.

FOR THE NON EXCITING, CALL ON THAT.

THE ALICE GEORGE SCORES AGAIN.

AND SO PACE ABOUT TO WRAP UP THEIR FIRST EVER STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

WE DO HAVE AN INJURED PLAYER ON THE GROUND.

NATS FOR FITZGERALD.

LOOKS LIKE IT'S TYLER BALL, SENIOR DEFENSIVE LINEMAN.

SO FITZGERALD, WHAT A SEASON FOR THE PURPLE HURRICANE COMING UP OUT OF SOUTH, GEORGIA.

YOU MENTIONED LOSS TO REGION RIVAL, BROOKS COUNTY 2117 BACK IN THEIR SEVENTH GAME.

AND THE WINNING STREAK EVER SINCE SEVEN.

STRAIGHT WINS AGAIN.

PACE ACADEMY TEAM RIGHT NOW.

GEORGE IS POWERS HIS WAY IN, YOU KNOW, RUNS HIS FEET.

HE'S TOUGH TO TAP THEM.

HE'LL BE A GOOD AND PROBABLY EVERYBODY ON THE FISH JILL DEFENSE AS SO.

AND HE'S GOT SPEED AND QUICKNESS, YOU KNOW, HE'S JUST NOT JUST A BIG GUY WHO CAN'T MOVE.

HE'S GOT SOME SUBTLE.

THE STORM SOME GOOD SPEED GOOD BODY LEAN AND THAT'S HOW HE'S ABLE TO GET INTO THE ENDZONE.

DECEPTIVE LOT OF WEAPONS IN THIS PACE ACADEMY TEAM BY PLAY 24 YARD DRIVE TOOK A MINUTE, 17, TO PACE ACADEMY.

IT'S A SIX, A GAME COLQUITT COUNTY, THE PACKERS, YOU'RE DEFENDING CHAMPIONS AND WINNERS OF 29 IN A ROW, TAKING ON ROSWELL HORNETS, A TEAM.

WE SAW IN WEEK ONE, BACK IN AUGUST HERE ON GPB, BOTH TEAMS UNDEFEATED.

WE EXPECT A LOT OF FANS HERE AND WE EXPECT A LOT OF OFFENSE IN THAT ONE.

YEAH, ALL OF THOSE OUTSTANDING FOOTBALL TEAM IS A GREAT TIME OF YEAR, GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL THAT SOME OF THE BEST FOOTBALL IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

YOU GET TO SEE QUALITY COACHING AND QUALITY PLAYERS THAT COLQUITT COUNTY TEAM.

RANKED NUMBER TWO IN THE COUNTRY BY USA TODAY.

THEY THINK THEY SHOULD BE NUMBER ONE.

WE TALKED TO RUSH PROPST ABOUT THAT.

HE SAID, HEY, WE THINK WE'RE THE BEST TEAM IN THE COUNTRY.

SO TWO MORE GAMES COMING UP HERE ON GPB TO KICK OFF RIGHT HERE AND OF THE ENDZONE HARRIS.

WELL, BASIC ADAM E IS A TWO MINUTES AND SEVEN SECONDS AWAY FROM THERE IS GETTING UP EARLY HOLIDAY GIFT RIGHT HERE AS KING ON FIRST DOWN.

AND WHAT A STORY THAT HAS BEEN THE TOP RUSHER IN THE STATE OVER TWENTY FOUR HUNDRED YARDS, HAD JUST BEEN BOTTLED UP IN THIS GAME.

BUT A 5-YARD GAIN, IT'S ONE OF HIS BETTER GAMES OF THE YEAR OF THE, OF THE OF THE GAME.

I SHOULD SAY.

YEAH, PACE HAS DONE A GOOD JOB STOPPING THE RUN, ESPECIALLY THE INSIDE, RUN GAME, JD KING.

NOW, THEY'RE IN A VERY TOUGH SITUATION BECAUSE YOU GOT A TEAM HAS THROWN THE BALL.

VERY RARELY ALL SEASON, NOT IN A SITUATION WHERE THEY STRIKES.

15 CARRIES 46 YARDS.

FOR JD KING.

KING YET AGAIN.

THIS FITZGERALD TEAM, WHAT A SEASON THEY HAVE HAD THIS YEAR.

REALLY COACH.

STRICKLAND SAID HE FELT LAST YEAR.

THEY HAD THE GOODS TO WIN IT.

ALL AND EVEN CHRIS SLADE WHO LOST IN THE QUARTERFINALS AGREED.

HE SAID, HEY LAST YEAR.

I FELT FITZGERALD WAS THE BEST TEAM IN THE STATE.

WELL, THAT'S THE WAY IT HAPPENS.

MOST OF THE TIME, YOU KNOW, IS VERY WEIRD.

SHE GOT THE BEST TEAM GOES OUT THERE AND WINS THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP HIS TEAM.

DID YOU NEVER EXPECT TO GET THERE A LOT OF TIMES THEY BATTLED THROUGH AND UNEXPECTED THINGS HAPPEN, YOU KNOW, STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM.

NO, THAT WAS A PART OF THE YEAR BEFORE.

THE TEAM WAS ACTUALLY BETTER TALENT WISE, AND WE ACTUALLY GOT BEAT DURING THAT SEASON, PRETTY BAD BY MAYORS, BY MORE THAN 30 POINTS.

AND THEN WE CAME BACK AND BEAT HIM IN THE FINAL.

SO THERE'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS WHERE A LOT OF TIMES ITS PLEASANT SURPRISES, IN TERMS OF WINNING CHAMPIONSHIPS, SHAVERS ON THE CARRY ON FIRST DOWN AND FITZGERALD, THE CLOCK WINDS DOWN AT 40 SECONDS AND IT APPEARS THAT FITZGERALD, BUT THEY JUST LET THIS CLOCK RUN DOWN RIGHT NOW, TWO TIMEOUTS WHEN I CALL HIM ANYTHING.

NOT DRAWING A PASS PLAY.

FITZGERALD.

I GOING TO FALL TO PACE ACADEMY HERE AND WHAT A JOB BY THE KNIGHTS.

THIS IS WHY YOU PLAY THE GAMES.

THEY WERE THE FOUR SEED OUT OF THEIR REGION UNRANKED COMING INTO THIS GAME.

AND YET, THEY'RE NOW SECONDS AWAY FROM THEIR FIRST EVER STATE CHAMPIONSHIP G GOING DEEP, BUT HE'S PICKED OFF.

INTERCEPTION RIGHT THERE BY PACE ACADEMY AND THE CELEBRATION BEGINS ON THE SIDELINES RIGHT THERE WITH CHRIS LANE AND HIS COACHING STAFF.

THEY'VE BEEN IN PLACE.

FOR THREE YEARS NOW AND WHAT A JOB.

THEY HAVE DONE TO SEAL THIS OFF WITH HER FIRST FORCED TURNOVER, HERE AT THE GAME.

AND THE CELEBRATION BEGINS ON THE PACE SIDELINES, THE FANS AND WHO OUT HERE TO THE GAME.

YEAH.

PAIGE HAS DONE A GOOD JOB, YOU KNOW ALL NIGHT OF BEING PREPARED BEING POSITIONED, HERE YOU GO.

ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM TO GET BACK AND MAKE THE INTERCEPTION.

HEY, COACH ALWAYS A DEFENSIVE PLAYER AS HE TOLD NIKKI AT HALFTIME.

HE SAID SHE SEEMS LIKE YOU CAN STILL PLAYED.

HE DOES HE'S IN GREAT SHAPE.

HE SAYS ONLY ON THIRD DOWN, RUSHING THE QUARTERBACK, BUT THE DEFENSIVE MINDED PERSON OF CHRIS SLADE AND WHAT A JOB, HE HAS DONE WITH THIS PROGRAM.

AS THEY NOW CAN OFFICIALLY BEGIN TO CELEBRATE.

THAT WAS JORDAN PAIN, BY THE WAY, ON THE INTERCEPTION.

WHAT A TEAM EFFORT BY THE PACE ACADEMY, KNIGHTS STATE CHAMPIONS FOR THE FIRST TIME.

YEAH.

GREAT JOB.

COACH DID A GOOD JOB OF HAVING HIS GUYS TO PAIR ALL OFFENSIVELY AND DEFENSIVELY.

IT WAS GOING TO TAKE, YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING INCLUDING SPECIAL TEAMS FOR THEM TO WIN THIS GAME.

AND THEY DOMINATED KNOW PRETTY MUCH THE ENTIRE GAME ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL.

FITZGERALD MADE MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS MADE SOME RUNS BUT END OF THE DAY.

PACE ACADEMY IS YOUR STATE CHAMPION.

CELEBRATION BY PACE PLAYERS GRADUALLY EACH OTHER ON A WELL-PLAYED GAME.

I THOUGHT THESE TWO TEAMS REALLY WERE VERY WELL MATCHED.

AND AS YOU MENTIONED EARLY ON, THERE'S SOME REALLY GOOD COACHING GOING ON A BOWL SIDE, GREAT PLAY-CALLING, TAKING ADVANTAGES OF WEAKNESSES AND THINGS THEY SAW IN THE DEFENSE MIXING THINGS UP.

BUT IN THE END, THE PACE OFFENSE WAS JUST PERHAPS TO VERSATILE AND AND TOO GOOD FOR FITZGERALD.

YEAH.

I THINK THAT'S WHAT IT CAME DOWN TO.

AT THE END OF THE DAY, YOU KNOW, PACE HAS SOME OUTSTANDING.

AND THOSE GUYS MADE PLAYS DOWN THE STREETS AND I THINK ALEX SAID THE COACHES PUT THEM IN POSITION TO MAKE THOSE PLAYS.

I THOUGHT YOU SAW A REALLY GOOD GAME CALLED ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL FOR PACE AND FITZGERALD AS WELL AS ALL FITZGERALD, YOU KNOW STUCK TO IT.

STUCK TO WHAT THEY STUCK TO WHAT THEY DO WHICH WAS RUNNING THE FOOTBALL AND THEY HAD A CHANCE.

THEY JUST DIDN'T EXECUTE WELL ENOUGH DOWN THE STRETCH IN ORDER TO WIN THE GAME.

YEAH, PACE ACADEMY.

SO ONCE AGAIN, LAST 28 CHAMPIONS FOR THE FIRST TIME AND WHAT A JOB THEY'VE DONE THERE.

WE'RE TALKING TO CHRIS SLADE A COUPLE YEARS AGO UP THERE AT A PRACTICE AND HE WAS SAYING, AGAIN, KIND OF THE SAME THINGS.

YOU DON'T HANG.

IT WAS HIS FIRST YEAR AS A HEAD COACH TRYING TO MAKE SOME THINGS HAPPEN.

CHANGING THINGS UP ASKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, BEING IN THE NFL, DOES IT CHANGE THINGS?

AND HE SAID, WELL, HE TALKED ABOUT THE COACHES THAT HE'S WORKED WITH IN HIS CAREER, EIGHT YEARS WITH A PATRIOTS, ONE YEAR AT THE CAROLINA PANTHERS BEFORE RETIRING TALKED ABOUT HIS TIME AS AN ALL-AMERICAN LINEBACKER AT VIRGINIA.

AND UNDER WELL, STARE, AND AGAIN, I'LL GROW AND SOME OF THE END OF THE INSPIRATION THAT HE'S HAD.

HE SAID, HE LOT OF HIS EX TEAMMATES FROM THE HIS PLAYING DAYS LIVE IN ATLANTA AND SAID THEY ARE PART OF THE CROWD TODAY.

THEY WOULD BE HERE TODAY.

THEY WERE CALLING ALL WEEK WITH THE GREAT.

JUST GREAT, YOU KNOW, ADVICE FOR HIM AND GREAT ENCOURAGEMENT.

AND HE COMES AWAY AND WHAT, A GREAT SCENE RIGHT?

THERE IS COACH CELEBRATES THIS CHAMPIONSHIP.

YEAH.

I'M HIS WELL-DESERVED, YOU KNOW, THEY WILL PREPARE AGAIN, OFFENSIVE LY DEFENSIVELY AND SPECIAL TEAMS THAT THOUGHT THEY DID A GOOD JOB.

AND THE END RESULT IS A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

HE ALWAYS WAS A GREAT GAME PLAN.

SHE TALKED ABOUT, WE WENT IN KNOWING THAT, YOU KNOW, THAT FALK THE QUARTERBACK, THE SOFTWARE PLAYED VERY WELL IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE SEASON.

WE KNEW WHAT DEON JACKSON HAD UNFORTUNATE HUNDRED YARDS RUSHING, BUT YOU DIDN'T COUNT ON, MAYBE REALIS GEORGE AND THE WAY, THEY WOULD USE GEORGE THE FULL-BACK.

THEY SAW SOMETHING DOWN, LEFT SIDE OF THE LINE.

THEY WOULD BUST HIM IN FOR THE BIG GAIN.

AND ONCE THEY GOT TO FIVE OR SIX YARDS IN THE FIRST FIRST DOWN, IT WOULD THINGS WOULD CHANGE AND GO FROM THERE, FITZGERALD.

HERE, JASON STRICKLAND ACCEPTING THE SECOND-PLACE TROPHY, THEIR BEST FINISH AGAIN IN THE STATE SINCE 2000.

AND THEY WILL AGAIN WITH NO SENIORS ON OFFENSE.

YOU CAN EXPECT THEM TO BE IN THE MIX AGAIN NEXT YEAR AS THEY TRY TO GET THEIR FIRST STATE CHAMPIONSHIP SINCE BACK IN 1948.

WHAT A GREAT JOB BY COACH STRICKLAND AND THE PURPLE HURRICANE.

YEAH AGAIN, YEAH, VERY YOUNG ON OFFENSE KNOW, SENIORS INTO 2D AND SO THEY RETURNED A HUGE GROUP THAT I KNOW WILL PROBABLY BE DETERMINED AND TRYING TO GET BACK HERE, YOU KNOW, WE TIP, YOU KNOW, TIP YOUR HAT TO FITZGERALD.

THEY GAVE GREAT EFFORT ALL NIGHT.

YEAH, THEY DID.

GRAHAM IS AN OUTSTANDING DUAL-THREAT QUARTERBACK.

I THINK HE'LL BECOME A BETTER PASSER.

NEXT YEAR'S AM A DIVERSIFIED, THEIR OFFENSE JD KING.

AGAIN, THE TOP RUSHER AND THE STATE ALREADY HAS AN OFFER FROM GEORGIA SOUTHERN, BUT YOU SPENT MORE TO COME FROM HIM AND FOR WHAT A GREAT TO GROUP OF GUYS, AGAIN FOR FITZGERALD AS THEY COME AWAY SECOND PLACE, BUT THE SPOILS GO TO THE CHAMPION OF TO A PACE ACADEMY.

AS WE GET READY FOR THE NEXT GAME.

WHO DO YOU THINK WILL WIN THE MATCHUP?

ONLY 70% THOUGHT FITZGERALD WAS GOING TO TAKE IT.

SO MAKE SURE YOU'RE FINDING US ON FACEBOOK AND TWITTER AND DON'T FORGET TO USE THE HASHTAG DOME WARS.

ALRIGHT, SO HERE WE ARE AT THE HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS.

IT'S EASY TO ASSUME THAT THE PLAYERS OUT THERE ON THE FIELD WOULD WANT TO PLAY AT THE NEXT LEVEL.

GOING TO COLLEGE MAYBE EVEN THE NFL, BUT THAT'S NOT THE CASE FOR EVERYONE.

IT WASN'T THE CASE FOR SAM HUNT.

YES.

AS IN THESE, SAM HUNT.

AND THAT'S WHY HE'S OUR PICK.

AND THIS.

WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

THIS IS SAM HUNT AND SO IS THIS?

YES, THE COUNTRY STAR IS GEORGIA MADE.

AND ONCE UPON A TIME.

HE COMMANDED THE OFFENSE AS THE QUARTERBACK OF THE CEDARTOWN BULLDOGS.

HE ALSO WENT TO PLAY FOOTBALL AT MIDDLE TENNESSEE, STATE UNIVERSITY, AS WELL AS THE UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA, BIRMINGHAM.

HE WAS EVEN BRIEFLY WITH THE KANSAS CITY CHIEFS.

BUT WHERE IS HE NOW?

ACCEPTING COUNTRY MUSIC AWARDS THIS YEAR.

HE WAS AWARDED AT THE AMAS AS THE NEW ARTIST OF THE YEAR AND HAS BEEN NOMINATED FOR SEVERAL OTHERS.

HE'S BEEN TOPPING THE CHARTS EVER.

SINCE HE CAME ONTO THE SCENE WITH SINGLES, LIKE, LEAVE THE NIGHT ON HOUSE PARTY AND BREAK UP IN A SMALL TOWN.

NO, HE'S NOT PLAYING FOOTBALL.

BUT WE'D SAY HE'S DOING PRETTY WELL.

AND THAT'S YOUR LOOK AT.

WHERE ARE THEY NOW WITH SAM HUNT?

WE ARE GETTING COUNTING DOWN TO KICKOFF OF THIS GREAT.

FOR A MATCHUP BETWEEN THE CARTERSVILLE PURPLE HURRICANES.

AND THE BUFORD WOLVES CARTERSVILLE COMES INTO THIS GAME, TOP-RANKED, UNDEFEATED, 14 AND 0, THE BUFORD WOLVES.

THEY'RE GOING FOR A 12TH STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

NOW, EARLIER THIS WEEK.

I GOT A CHANCE TO TALK TO THE CARTERSVILLE HEAD COACH JOEY KING AND I ASKED HIM ABOUT THE JOURNEY OF THIS SEASON AND WHAT HE'S LEARNED ABOUT HIS TEAM AS THEY'VE GONE 14 AND KNOW.

THE FACT THAT THEY LOVE EACH OTHER, YOU KNOW, THEY REALLY REALLY GROWN AS A TEAM.

YOU KNOW, YOU HEAR YOU HEAR THAT, SAYING ALL THE TIME THAT GOOD TEAMS, REALLY CARE ABOUT EACH OTHER AND WHAT'S GOING ON AND ARE WILLING TO FIGHT FOR EACH OTHER.

BUT THAT'S, THAT'S HELD EVERY TRUE FOR OUR GUYS.

THEY'VE REALLY LEARNED TO BOND AND FIGHT FOR EACH OTHER AS THE YEARS.

PROGRESSED KNOW, ONE OF THE KEY PLAYERS ON YOUR TEAM IS YOUR QUARTERBACK.

TREVOR LAWRENCE TALK ABOUT WHAT HE HAS BROUGHT TO THE TABLE THIS SEASON FOR THE PURPLE HURRICANE.

HE STEPPED IT UP A LOT THIS YEAR.

OBVIOUSLY, HE'S REALLY TALENTED, VERY HEADS, HE PLAYER, BUT HIS LEADERSHIP HAS BEEN A LITTLE BIT.

LONGER THIS YEAR FROM HIS FRESHMAN SEASON 2 SOPHOMORE YEAR, YOU KNOW, WE'RE JUST TALKING ABOUT A SOPHOMORE BUT YOU KNOW, HE'S REALLY PUSHED OUR TEAM AND ENCOURAGED EVERYBODY TO SEASON.

YOU MATCH UP WITH BUFORD THE DEFENDING CHAMP.

YOU PLAYED THEM IN THE SEMIS LAST YEAR, TALKED ABOUT GOING AGAINST THE WOLVES.

THEY'RE THERE.

I MEAN, THEY'RE A TREMENDOUS FOOTBALL TEAM, YOU KNOW, YOU LOOK AT THEM AND YOU KNOW WHAT, JESS, AND THOSE GUYS HAVE DONE AND THERE'S REALLY NOT A WEAKNESS THERE.

WE'VE GOT TO WORK CUT OUT FOR US FOR SURE, BUT WE'RE DEFINITELY EXCITED TO BE PLAYING 1991.

1999 THE PURPLE HURRICANES WON THE STATE.

CHAMPIONSHIP, WHAT WOULD IT MEAN TO YOU TO BE THE HEAD COACH?

AND WHEN THE THIRD ONE, I BE AWESOME, YOU KNOW, OUR COMMUNITY IS A WONDERFUL WONDERFUL PLACE TO LIVE AND TO WORK AND JUST THE EXCITEMENT IS SURROUNDING A RIGHT NOW BUT TO BE ABLE TO GRAB A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP AND BRING BACK ON THE CARDS, WE WILL MEAN A WHOLE LOT.

HOW FIRED UP OR YOU AND YOUR PLAYERS ESPECIALLY TO PLAY IN THIS CHAMPIONSHIP GAME AT THE GEORGIA DOME.

I WERE EXCITED, YOU KNOW, WE SET OUT TO THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR AND SAID OUR GOAL IS A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP AND THAT'S WHERE WE WANT TO BE, NOT JUST GETTING HERE BUT TO WIN IT AND OBVIOUSLY IT TAKES A TREMENDOUS EFFORT AND A LITTLE BIT OF LUCK TO DO THAT.

THIS IS, THIS IS RIGHT WHERE WE WANTED TO BE.

SO CARTERSVILLE COACH, JOEY KING ALL HIS PLAYERS, INCLUDING THE BEST SOPHOMORE QUARTERBACK IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY.

TREVOR LAWRENCE AND EVERYBODY ELSE IS READY TO ROLL FOR THOSE PURPLE HURRICANES, INCLUDING THEIR PEP BAND.

LET'S CHECK IN WITH JACKIE, WHO'S ALONGSIDE THOSE MUSICAL WIZARDS.

ABSOLUTELY.

ONE OF THE BEST THINGS ABOUT HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL IS THE BAND IN THE ENTERTAINMENT AND THE SPIRIT THAT THEY BRING TO THE ATMOSPHERE AT FOOTBALL GAMES.

SO, WE'RE GOING TO TALK A LITTLE BIT RIGHT NOW TO THE CARTERSVILLE PET, BAND, BAND, DIRECTOR, BOB, STEELE NECK.

AND YOU GUYS ARE EXCITED FOR THIS MATCHUP.

NO DOWN, HUH?

ABSOLUTELY THRILLED TO BE HERE ON BEHALF OF OUR COMMUNITY.

OUR SCHOOL, THE BAND, OUR PARENT GROUP.

EVERYBODY IS SO EXCITED TO BE HERE.

THANKS.

WHAT'S THIS YEAR?

BEEN LIKE FOR YOU GUYS?

IT'S BEEN TERRIFIC.

IT'S WE'RE GETTING BIGGER AND BETTER EVERY YEAR AND PROUD OF THE KIDS.

WE HAD A GREAT COMPETITION SEASON.

WE'RE JUST HERE TO SUPPORT THE SCHOOL AND THE TEAM THROUGH TODAY.

SO YEAH.

ANY COMPETITIONS COMING UP SOON?

WE JUST HAD A BIG ATLANTA CHRISTMAS, PARADE, WHICH WE WERE IN, WHICH WAS GREAT AND LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT YEAR.

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO HEAR FROM THEM RIGHT NOW?

WE'RE GOING TO PLAY THE HORSE FOR YOU.

ONE OF OUR TRADITIONAL TEAMS THAT CARTERSVILLE.

CARTERSVILLE, TAKE IT AWAY.

ALL RIGHT, GREAT STUFF, GREAT STUFF THERE FROM THE CARTERSVILLE MARCHING BAND WILL HEAR THE ENTIRE LAND AT HALFTIME.

BUT FIRST, THERE'S MUCH FOR COMING UP AND OUR TAILGATE SHOW STAY WITH US.

I LOVE THAT ENTHUSIASM.

COMING UP ON THE BROADCAST TEAM OF JOHN NELSON, AND FORMER FALCON.

CHUCK SMITH WILL PREVIEW OUR DIP COMING GAME IN OUR EXTRA POINT.

SEGMENT.

PLUS WE'LL HEAR FROM BUFORD COACH JESS SIMPSON AS HE GOES FOR HIS SEVENTH GHSA CHAMPIONSHIP IN THE SCHOOL GOES FOR IT'S 12.

IT'S ALL COMING UP NEXT AND HE'S WATCHING TWO SONS IN THIS GAME.

AND JACKIE LAST TIME ABOUT THAT.

THE GPB CHAMPIONSHIP WEEKEND HALFTIME, SHOW CONTINUES RIGHT.

AFTER THIS TIME.

YOUR LOCAL HEALTH AGENTS ARE PROUD TO JOIN VIEWERS LIKE YOU IN MAKING THIS PROGRAMMING POSSIBLE.

WELL, LOCAL AGENTS IN THE COMMUNITY WERE PART OF THE COMMUNITY.

I LOVE DOING BUSINESS IN THE TOWN THAT I LIVE IN.

MY CLIENTS ARE MY FRIENDS.

THEY CAN JUST STEP IN MY OFFICE AND SAY HELLO.

HELLO, THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO ME.

ONE OF THE AVAILABLE TO THEM.

IN CASE THEY NEED IS, YOU GET A LOT OF REWARD PERSONALLY, GOING HOME AT NIGHT KNOWING THAT YOU'VE TAKEN CARE OF, FOLKS, PROTECTING OUR COMMUNITIES NEIGHBOR TO NEIGHBOR, FOR ALMOST 70 YEARS, ALPHA INSURANCE.

WHAT IS BY MOONLIGHT?

AND EMPTY FIELD, IS BY THE MAGIC OF ELECTRICITY SACRED GROUND, AS THE OFFICIAL ENERGY PROVIDER OF THE GHSA GEORGE'S ELECTRIC MEMBERSHIP COOPERATIVES PROUDLY SUPPORT OUR STUDENT ATHLETES.

WE ARE THERE ILLUMINATING THE GLORY MOMENTS FANS.

JUST HAVE TO SEE.

CAPTURING THE HUSTLE ELEVATING CHAMPIONS SHARING THE WIN.

GEORGIA CMC'S EMPOWERING, OUR YOUTH, LIGHTING THE WAY UP TO UNIVERSITY.

WE CAN DEVISE WAYS TO WORK WITH PEOPLE AT THE LOCAL LEVEL TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

IF YOU CAN GET PEOPLE INTERESTED IN LEARNING ABOUT THE STATE THAT THEY LIVE IN AND CONNECT THAT WITH THE NUMBER OF STEPS.

THEY TAKE THE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY THAT THEY CAN GAUGE IN WITH GARDENING.

WALKING DOING HOUSEWORK REALLY CONCENTRATING ON IMPROVING, THE AMOUNT OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES THAT YOU GET.

IT SHOULD BE ONE WAY OUT OF THE BALL GAME TONIGHT.

WE'RE BACK LIVE WITH THE GEORGIA DOME LIVE AT THE GHSA FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS LIVE ON GPB.

WE'RE GETTING READY FOR THIS HUGE CLASS FOR A COLLISION BETWEEN THE TWO TOP TEAMS IN THAT CLASSIFICATION.

BUFORD AND CARTERSVILLE, RIGHT?

THAT'S UPCOMING FOR A GAME IS A REMATCH OF LAST YEAR'S.

SEMIFINALS CARTERSVILLE HAS ONE OF THE TOP QUARTERBACKS IN THE COUNTRY, IN TREVOR LAWRENCE.

HE'S ONLY A SOPHOMORE AND OF COURSE, BUFORD IS LOOKING FOR ITS 12TH STATE TITLE IN FOOTBALL, HISTORY.

IT'S GOING TO BE A GOOD ONE.

I TELL YOU.

SO LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT WHERE WE ARE SO FAR.

IT'S BEEN A LONG WEEKEND ALREADY ON THE WEEKEND.

FIVE STATE CHAMPIONS HAVE ALREADY BEEN CROWNED THREE YESTERDAY AND TWO MORE SO FAR TODAY EARLIER THIS MORNING, 35, TO 14, ELKA, OVER AQUINAS AND THEN IN DOUBLE A CASE ACADEMY TAKES IT OVER FITZGERALD, 42 TO 21, COMING UP NEXT.

THIS TITANIC FOR A CONFRONTATION BETWEEN CARTERSVILLE AND BUFORD, AND WE'LL CAP THINGS OFF WITH THE 6A CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

IN PRIME TIME BETWEEN TWO UNBEATEN TEAMS.

THE DEFENDING CHAMPION COLQUITT COUNTY PACKERS ON A 29 GAME, WINNING STREAK AND THE 14 AND A HORNET'S OF ROSWELL.

THESE NEXT TWO GAMES ARE GOING TO BE AS GOOD AS IT GETS.

AND NOW WE'RE GOING TO CHECK IN WITH TWO GUYS WHO ARE GOING TO CALL THIS GAME, OUR OWN JOHN NELSON, AND FORMER ATLANTA FALCONS, CHUCK SMITH FOR A LITTLE X'S AND O'S A LITTLE CHUNK TALK LITTLE SEGMENT THAT WE LIKE TO CALL EXTRA POINT.

GUYS, IT IS THAT TIME WHERE WE'RE GOING TO KIND OF GIVE YOU A BIT OF A PREVIEW AS TO WHAT WE'RE EXPECTING HERE.

BUT TO PREVIEW, LET'S REVIEW AND GO BACK TO LAST YEAR AND THE DOMINATING PERFORMANCE THAT BUFORD HAD TO GET THAT 2014 SEMI-FINAL TO GET THEM BACK HERE TO THE DOME AND IT WAS DEFENSE PRESSURE AND DEFENSE GOING UP AGAINST TREVOR LAWRENCE AND IT WAS GROUND AND POUND ON OFFENSE AND YOU'RE EXACTLY RIGHT IS STARTED UP FRONT WITH BUFORD'S DEFENSE.

SHOULD FRAZIER, IF YOU CAN'T STOP BIG SUGAR MOUNTAIN, MOUNTAIN SHOOK NOTHING.

HAPPENED IN MEMBER LAST YEAR.

THEY ESTABLISH THE RUN.

IT WAS A PHYSICAL GAME.

BUT CARTERSVILLE HAS RECOVERED.

LET'S SEE WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TODAY.

AND YOU HAD 16, TREVOR LAWRENCE WAS A FRESHMAN THROWING INTO A LOT OF WHITE JERSEYS LAST YEAR, BUT STARTING AS A FRESHMAN BRINGING HIM TO BE THE TOP-RATED, SOPHOMORE AT HIS POSITION IN THE COUNTRY.

YOU SEE, THE CRASH THERE, BUFORD GOES ON TO WIN AT 2:33.

AND IN THAT OFFSEASON.

TREVOR, LAWRENCE HAS LEARNED A LOT AND HE'S NUMBER ONE AND HE IS REALLY SHOWING IT THIS SEASON WITH CARTERSVILLE, WELL, THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE, TREVOR LAWRENCE HAS EFFICIENCY, HE THROWS THE BALL WITH EFFICIENCY THROWS WITH ACCURACY.

HE COULD RUN, HE'S TALL.

I MEAN, HE'S THE PERFECT PROTOTYPICAL QUARTERBACK AND THAT'S WHAT HE BRINGS TO THE TABLE.

BUT WE'RE GOING TO SEE IF ALL THAT CAN HELP AGAINST THE BIG BOYS TONIGHT AT BEAUFORT 90.

WE'RE EXPECTING PROBABLY 40 OR 45 PASTORS FROM CARTERSVILLE ON ON THEIR OWN.

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT FROM CARTERSVILLE TO AVENGE THAT LOSS?

AND OBVIOUSLY REVENGE IS A BIG FACTOR HERE.

WELL, I THINK THE FIRST THING YOU GOT TO DO A CAR TO CARTERSVILLE, YOU GOT TO SPREAD THEM OUT AND THAT'S WHAT THEY DO.

WELL, YOU GOT TO BE ABLE TO MAKE YARDS.

AFTER THE CATCH THE NUMBER ONE KEY TODAY IS WHEN THEY THROW WHEN TREVOR LAWRENCE THROWS THE BALL, IT'S GOING TO BE VERY INTERESTING TO SEE HOW MANY YARDS AFTER THE CATCH.

THEY CAN GET.

AND WHAT THAT MEANS IS WHEN THEY CATCH, IT'S GONNA BE IMPORTANT THAT EXTRA EFFORT TO MAKE SOME PLAYS AND MAKE SOME YARDS.

AND SO, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE ME DO MATH.

IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE THINKING?

WE DID THAT YESTERDAY MATH.

YEAH, RIGHT.

AND WE ALSO FIGURED OUT WHO WERE PEOPLE WHEN IT COMES TO HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL KICKERS, OUR PEOPLE-TO-PEOPLE TO AS OUR OFFENSIVE LINEMAN OFFENSIVE, LINEMAN ARE PEOPLE TOO AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE NEEDED ON BOTH SIDES OFFENSIVE LINE FOR THESE QUARTERBACKS TO BE EFFICIENT.

AND TO GET THE JOB DONE.

WELL, YOU'RE EXACTLY RIGHT.

AND IT'S GOING TO BE A BATTLE OF THE TRENCHES.

OH, LINE VERSUS D LINE.

AND THE KEY IS WHO'S STANDING UP IN THE END.

OF COURSE, THE D LINEMAN WOULD MENTION I LO LINE VERSUS D LINE WHEN IT COMES TO THIS PARTICULAR GAME.

NUMBER ONE VERSUS NUMBER TWO.

BOTH TEAMS HAVE BEEN HERE, BUT FOR CARTERSVILLE HAVEN'T BEEN HERE SINCE 1999 IN THE RONNIE BROWN ERA.

SO A LOT OF THE 99 YOU'RE GOING TO BE ON THE SIDELINES TO BROWN AND THAT'S A HECK OF A NAME OF THROUGHOUT THEIR BUT THE KEY IS BIG PLAYS.

YEAH, BIG PLAYS.

AND WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT CARTERSVILLE, THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GET BIG PLAYS IN ONE THING THAT BUFORD HASN'T SEEN AND I BELIEVE IN THIS LONG RUN OF SUCCESS, A TEAM THAT CAN SPREAD THEM OUT AND CAN GET VERTICAL DOWNFIELD, AND THAT COULD BE THE KEY TODAY FOR CARTERSVILLE VICTORY.

ALL RIGHT, BIG PLAYS WILL HOLD CHUCK TO THOSE 8-LETTER WORDS AS WE SEND IT BACK DOWN TO THE BRIDGE WITH PRINCE'S.

JACKIE AND DARTH, HARMON.

QUAD, A CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

NUMBER ONE, VERSUS NUMBER TWO, JUST AROUND THE CORNER.

ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU, GUYS.

YOU GUYS GOT THE BIG OVERTIME GAME TO CALL LAST NIGHT AS WELL.

SO, GOOD LUCK ON THIS ONE.

VERY PROUD OF OUR LOCAL PRODUCTIONS HERE AT GEORGIA PUBLIC BROADCASTING LIKE FOOTBALL, FRIDAYS AND GEORGIA LAWMAKERS, GEORGIA OUTDOORS.

AND OF COURSE, GEORGIA TRAVELERS ARE DAVID'S ELSE KEY JUST FOR US, JUST FOR THE GHSA CHAMPIONSHIP SCOURED, THE AREA AROUND THE GEORGIA DOME TO FIND THE BEST PLACES TO EAT ON THE WAY IN OR THE WAY OUT.

HERE'S DAVID.

IT'S FINALLY HERE CHAMPIONSHIP WEEKEND.

AND EVEN THOUGH FOOTBALL IS THE FOCUS.

EVERYBODY NEEDS SOME FUEL.

SO WE'RE GOING TO HIGHLIGHT JUST A FEW OF THE MANY RESTAURANTS WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE OF THE DOME THAT ARE PERFECT GEARING UP FOR PREGAME OR CELEBRATING POSTGAME THE DISCUSSION STILL BURNS HOT AS TO WHAT EXACTLY IS YOUR JUST BARBECUE IDENTITY, BUT IN DOWNTOWN ATLANTA, ONE RESTAURANT IS EMBRACING THE CAPITALS.

ASIAN AS THE CITY TOO BUSY TO HATE SMOKING UP, BOTH TEXAS STYLE, AND TRADITIONAL GEORGIA MEETS IN OFFERING AN ARRAY OF SIDES AND SAUCES COVERING THE FULL RANGE OF BARBECUE FLAVORS.

THERE'S AN OPTION TO SATISFY ANY TASTE IN FUEL, THE GREAT BARBECUE DEBATE AT TWIN SMOKERS.

THIS IS WHERE ALL THE ACTION IS.

THIS IS WHERE IT ALL BEGINS WITH THE WOOD.

ALL RIGHT.

WE GOT THE CHICORY AND THE WHITE OAK.

WHY HICKORY WHITE OAK?

WELL, WHEN YOU USE THESE WOODS IN OUR SMOKER, THAT'S NAMED ELIZABETH, ITS A SOUTHERN STYLE APPROACH OF SMOKE THAT WE TAKE TO OUR PORK AND CHICKEN.

AND THIS IS WOOD THAT WE GET FROM NORTH GEORGIA AND THE CAROLINAS, THE WOOD IS, IS IMPORTANT OF AN INGREDIENT AS THE PROTEIN THAT WE BUY OR THE SIDES THAT WE MAKE.

LET'S GO ON.

THERE'S DIFFERENT WOOD FOR THE CAL, THE RESIDENT.

LET'S SEE THAT POST OAK AND MESQUITE.

THIS IS THE BRISKET WOULD WRITE, IT IS.

OKAY.

SO WE DO OUR BRISKET DINOSAUR BEEF, SHORT, RIB, AND OUR BEEF SAUSAGE, WITH THIS WOOD.

THAT'S TEXAS STYLE.

AND YOU CAN'T GET THIS FROM THE NORTH.

GEORGIA MOUNTAINS.

OH, I GET THAT ALL.

THIS COMES TO US ON A STRAIGHT FROM TEXAS.

THAT IS AWESOME.

AT THIS POINT.

I WAS MORE THAN READY TO SAMPLE.

THE SMOKY GOODNESS THAT COMES FROM THESE SPECIALLY SELECTED WOODS, BUT FIRST, I HAD TO BE INTRODUCED TO THE BIG RED BOXES AND THE FRONT OF THE KITCHEN, EACH OF THESE TWIN SMOKERS HAVE A PURPOSE AND THIS IS PRETTY UNIQUE AND WE THINK THAT WE'RE THE ONLY ONE ONLY ONES DOING THIS, AT LEAST IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

THESE ARE JAN ARE OILERS.

THERE'S NO HEAT ASSIST AT ALL.

WE ONLY COOK WITH WOOD.

SO IF WE DON'T PUT WHAT IN THERE, WE DON'T HAVE ANY FOOD TO OPEN IN THE MORNING.

MATTHEW IS OUR TEXAS-STYLE SMOKER.

LIKE WE TALKED ABOUT FOR ALL OF OUR BEEF PRODUCTS AND INTO SOUTHERN STYLE SMOKER.

WE DO SPRINGER MOUNTAIN, CHICKENS PORK BUTT AND WE DO A ST. LOUIS STYLE, RIBS, ALL WE GOT TO DO LEFT.

I FEEL LIKE WE'RE MISSING SOMETHING, DUDE.

YOU HAVE TO TRY SOME BARBECUE.

LET'S DO IT.

AND WITH THAT AND WE DUG INTO ONE OF TWIN SMOKERS TEXAS-STYLE BRISKET.

SMOKY FILLED WITH FANTASTIC FLAVOR.

HOWEVER, FLOWMOTION KNOWS ME THIS ENJOYING THE MOMENT.

I ATE SO MUCH, I AGREED TO DO A LITTLE WORK IN EXCHANGE HELPING.

SUPPLIED, THE SMOKE THAT IF YOU'RE LUCKY, YOU'LL CATCH A WHIFF OF AT THE DOME, JUST A SHORT WALK AWAY.

CHECK OUT MORE GEORGIA, TRAVELER THURSDAYS ON GPB.

AND JOHN, THIS TIME, YOU GO TO THE SAVANNAH AREA OF WITH A TEAM THAT JUST KICKING OFF IN ITS HISTORY, RIGHT?

AND THAT'S THE COOL PART ABOUT DOING A SEGMENT LIKE THIS, AND YOU GET TO KIND OF SEE THOSE FIRST AND SECOND YEAR, AND THIRD YEAR PROGRAMS, AND SEEING HOW THEY'RE GOING.

SO WHAT DID WE DO?

WE WENT TO NEW HAMPSHIRE, STEAD, JUST OUTSIDE OF SAVANNAH TO TAKE A LOOK AT YEAR 2.

BRAND NEW SPANKING, NEW COACHING WHISTLE, YOU GOT TO START SOMEWHERE AND FOR THE PHOENIX, THEIR RISE IS NOW TO THE POINT OF HAVING THEIR FIRST SENIOR LEADERS AFTER A TWO AND EIGHT DEBUT LAST YEAR THEIR TWO AND ONE FOLLOWING A LOCAL MODEL FOR SUCCESS ARE PRIVATE SCHOOLS, ARE ALWAYS GO TO THE PLAYOFFS AND WE'VE HAD SOME CHAMPIONSHIP, SOME CHAMPIONSHIP RUNS, BUT IT'S BEEN TOUGH PLOWING FOR US.

SAVANNAH PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

SO WE WANT TO TRY TO CREATE AN ATMOSPHERE THAT'S VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT THE PRIVATE SCHOOLS DO.

AND THAT FIRST YEAR.

IT WAS WHAT YOU'D EXPECT.

IT WAS IT WAS HARD.

BUT IT WAS WE PULLED THROUGH IT WITH OUR COACHING STAFF.

FAMILY, EDUCATION FAITH.

WE ALL DO IT TOGETHER.

SO THEREFORE WE JUST GOT TO KEEP IT GOING AND PUT GOD FIRST AND HAVE A GREAT SEASON.

AS A FAMILY, IT'S BEEN TOUGH, BUT IT IS INTERESTING BECAUSE YOU JUST BUILD IT UP FROM THE BIT FROM THE BOTTOM, LIKE A BUILDING AND SKY'S THE LIMIT.

BULLDOG COUNTRY, NO ROCKDALE COUNTY.

WE HAD A SOLID PROGRAM WHEN I WAS THERE WITHOUT HEARD THEY'VE BEEN DOING REALLY WELL AS OF LATE.

SO, I MEAN, IT WAS A, IT WAS A REALLY FUN PLACE TO PLAY.

AND, YOU KNOW, I'M GLAD I CAME OUT OF THERE.

YEAH, ONE MEMORY, ONE MOMENT.

THAT STANDS OUT MOST IN YOUR HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL PLAYING CAREER.

I JUST REMEMBER MY JUNIOR.

WE HAD JUST HAD A REALLY GOOD YEAR.

WE LOSE ONE GAME AWAY FROM GOING TO THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

SO, SO JUST THAT JUST THAT WHOLE IT WAS REALLY SPECIAL AND A LOT OF GOOD ATHLETES ON THAT TEAM.

AND THAT'S JUST SOMETHING THAT I JUST ALWAYS KEEP WITH ME AS A PROFESSIONAL ATHLETE IS A MEMBER OF THE ATLANTA FALCONS.

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO A HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL PLAYER HERE IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA, YOU KNOW, MAN JUST GO OUT THERE AND DO YOUR BEST.

JUST DO YOUR BEST PLAY FOR YOU.

PLAY FOR YOUR SCHOOL FOR YOU'RE COUNTING JUST FOR YOUR PRIDE AND, YOU KNOW, JUST HAVE FUN WITH IT.

JUST HAVE FUN WITH IT AND DON'T STRESS ANYTHING.

I JUST FEEL LIKE HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL.

SO SHORT JUST LIKE COLLEGE.

YOU JUST GOT TO ENJOY EVERY MOMENT.

SO JUST GO OUT THERE.

DO YOUR BEST AND AND YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING ELSE.

TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF.

I COULD SET UP AS ALWAYS FROM, MARK, HARMON AND THE ATLANTA FALCONS FIRST REAL QUICK BEFORE WE MOVE ON BEFORE GAME TIME, BEGINS AND WANT TO CORRECT THE COORDINATES.

MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE THE RIGHT INFORMATION AS YOU TRY TO TRACK DOWN CHEWY.

SO IF YOU'RE TRACKING DOWN CHEWY, THESE ARE THE COORDINATES.

HE IS HEADING FOR 41 DEGREES, 42 MINUTES, NORTH 44 DEGREES, 47 MINUTES, EAST.

YOU'D BE THE FIRST PERSON TO TWEET US @GPBSPORTS.

USING THE HASHTAG CHEWY, UNLEASHED TO DECODE THOSE COORDINATES.

LET US KNOW WHERE YOU THINK HE IS, AND YOU WILL RUN A FREE IPAD MINI.

ALL RIGHT.

IT'S ALMOST GAME TIME.

ALMOST TIME TO THE FIELD.

BUT FIRST, WE WANT TO HEAR FROM COACH JESS SIMPSON AS HIS TEAM GETS READY TO TAKE A SHOT AT THE CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY.

THE COACH HAS 17 STATE TITLES AS AND HAS A RECORD OF 150 1 TO 9 AND 11 SEASON, BUT THIS SEASON IS REALLY SPECIAL FOR HIM BECAUSE HE HAS TWO SONS PLAYING ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD.

YOU'LL SEE OUT THERE TODAY FOR ME AND MY WIFE AND HER WHOLE FAMILY.

JUST YOU KNOW, WE'VE BEEN AT BUFORD A LONG TIME AND OUR KIDS HAVE GROWN UP AND KNOW NOTHING BUT GREEN AND GOLD AND YOU KNOW COOPER'S ARE SENIOR AND JAKE BEING A JUNIOR AND GETTING TO DO THIS ONE LAST TIME, WE COUPE AND HAVING BROTHERS PLAY TOGETHER AND GO THROUGH ALL THE THINGS YOU GO THROUGH DURING THE FOOTBALL SEASON.

IT'S BEEN REALLY UNIQUE AND VERY SPECIAL.

WHAT WOULD YOU SAY IS THE BIGGEST THING THAT YOU'VE LEARNED ABOUT YOUR TEAM THIS YEAR.

WHAT WAS THEIR ONE DEFINING MOMENT THIS SEASON?

WHERE YOU WERE LIKE, MAN, I'VE REALLY GOT SOMETHING SPECIAL HERE WITH THESE GUYS.

YOU KNOW WHAT, I THINK THE STORE BEHIND THIS TEAM IS JUST HOW FAR WE'VE COME FROM SPRAYING.

AND THEN EARLY AND, YOU KNOW, AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER.

WE HAD SO MANY KIDS OUT AND INJURED AND JUST KIND OF HOW WE'VE GROWN.

YOU KNOW, WE JUST LOOK LIKE A DIFFERENT TEAM THAN WE LOOKED ON SEPTEMBER 1ST AND AND WE'VE IMPROVED EACH WEEK AND THE KIDS ENJOYED EACH OTHER AND PLAYING TOGETHER AND AND IT'S BEEN IT'S BEEN A SPECIAL YEAR IN A LOT OF WAYS FOR US WHO ARE SOME OF THE GUYS THAT ARE TEAM LEADERS ARE VOCAL LEADERS.

THAT YOU KNOW, YOU'VE REALLY THEIR SEAT COME A LONG WAY OR WHO YOU KIND OF RELY ON TO KIND OF HELP RALLY THE TEAM AND TOUGH SITUATIONS.

I DON'T KNOW THAT I CAN JUST POINT OUT ONE.

IT'S BEEN IT'S BEEN A GROUP OF GUYS THAT HAVE BEEN TIGHT AND PLAYED TOGETHER AND YOU KNOW, WE'RE SUCCESSFUL IN MIDDLE SCHOOL AND ALL THE WAY UP AND THIS IS KIND OF THE END.

SO IT'S KIND OF BITTERSWEET.

THE BEST PART ABOUT THAT WAS, YOU KNOW, I ASKED ABOUT PLAYING THE DAD ROLE THAN PLAYING THE COACH ROLE AND THERE'S SOMETIMES SEEMS LIKE IT GETS A LITTLE GRITTY BUT THEY FIGURE IT OUT.

HE KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING.

YOU SAID HE TOLD YOU THAT SOMETIMES MOM HAS TO REFEREE A LITTLE BIT AS I'M NOT SURPRISED, A BUNCH OF BOYS IN THE HOUSE ARE ALL ABOUT FOOTBALLS.

THAT'S NOT SURPRISING AT ALL, EITHER.

ALL RIGHT.

IT'S THAT TIME WE ARE COUNTING DOWN TO KICKOFF.

IT IS THE PURPLE HURRICANES OF CARTERS.

EVIL, IT'S THE WOLVES UP.

BUFORD.

IT'S TIME FOR THE FOR A GHSA CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

LIVE ON GPB.
