>>> LIVE FROM RAY MANUS STADIUM IN ROSWELL, GEORGIA, THE TWO-TIME DEFENDING STATE CHAMPION COLQUITT COUNTY PACKERS TAKE ON THE NUMBER ONE RANKED ROSWELL HORNETS.

AND GOOD EVENING.

I AM MATT STEWART JOINED BY LARRY SMITH.

LARRY, IT WAS TEN MONTHS AGO THAT COLQUITT COUNTY BEAT ROSWELL 30-13 TO WIN THE 6-A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP IN THE GEORGIA DOME.

TEN MONTHS LATER BOTH TEAMS ARE PLAYING IN 7-A.

COLQUITT COUNTY RETURNS ONLY FIVE STARTERS.

THEY'RE A TOUGH LUCK 0-3.

ROSWELL LOOKS LIKE THEY PICKED UP WHERE THEY LEFT OFF.

>> THEY REALLY DO.

IT WAS A TOUGH LOSS IN THE DOME FOR THE HORNETS, 30-13.

A JUGGERNAUT COLQUITT WAS.

IT'S A DIFFERENT GAME AS YOU MENTIONED.

A LOT OF INEXPERIENCE ON THIS TEAM.

ROSWELL, YOU HOPE WHEN YOU GET TO THE TITLE GAME AND LOSE, THE MOST YOU GET OUT OF IT IS SOMETHING POSITIVE FOR THE NEXT YEAR.

THEY ARE LOOKING STRONG IN THE FIRST TWO GAMES.

>> BABY STEPS IS THE STORY LINE FOR THIS COLQUITT COUNTY TEAM.

ONLY FIVE STARTERS RETURNED.

THE INEXPERIENCE INCLUDES THE QUARTERBACK, WHERE THEY HAVE REPLACED CHASE PARRISH WITH JAY SAUNDERS.

>> A JUNIOR RIGHT NOW.

AS YOU SAID, VERY INEXPERIENCED.

HE'S BEEN KIND OF UP AND DOWN.

LAST WEEK HE CAME ON STRONG EARLY AND COMPLETED THE FIRST 15 PASSES.

HIS NUMBERS THERE.

FIVE TOUCHDOWNS, THREE INTERCEPTIONS.

COACH PROPST SAYS HE HAS TO BE MORE CONSISTENT IF THIS TEAM IS GOING TO GET ANYTHING DONE.

>> HE IS FACING A DEFENSE TONIGHT ON THE ROSWELL SIDE THAT HAS AT LEAST FIVE DIVISION I PROSPECTS.

THREE OF THEM IN THE SECONDARY LED BY ONE OF THE TOP SAFETIES IN THE COUNTRY, XAVIER McKINNEY.

>> HE'LL BE FUN TO WATCH TONIGHT, AND THE WHOLE DEFENSE.

WHAT DAUNTING TASK FOR ANY QUARTERBACK.

IT'S ACTUALLY ONE THAT -- THIS COULD BE A TOUGH MATCHUP FOR COLQUITT BECAUSE OF THE DEFENSE.

ESPECIALLY IN THE SECONDARY.

>> ONCE AGAIN, THE THIRD MEMBER OF OUR TEAM IS JON NELSON.

HE IS ON THE SIDELINE.

NELLY, TAKE IT AWAY.

>> MATT AND LARRY, GOOD EVENING TO YOU.

GOOD EVENING HOWEVER YOU'RE ACCESSING US.

REMEMBER WHEN WE STARTED THIS SHOW ABOUT A HALF HOUR AGO AND YOU SAW A BIG GRAPHIC?

IT WASN'T A LIE.

COLQUITT COUNTY 0-3.

BUT REMEMBER, ALL THREE OF THOSE LOSSES, NOT WON BY ANY MORE THAN SEVEN POINTS.

AND HOW DID THEY ACTUALLY GET TO 0-3?

LET'S TAKE YOU TO LAST SATURDAY.

BECAUSE OF HERMINE, THE GAME AGAINST TUCKER FROM FRIDAY WAS PUSHED TO SATURDAY.

IT WAS ANOTHER GAME WHERE COLQUITT COUNTY HAD THE LEAD.

SAUNDERS WOULD COMPLETE A BUNCH OF PASSES ON THEIR FIRST DRIVE, SCORE A TOUCHDOWN.

AND IT WAS A TOUCHDOWN THERE.

TO GET THEM A 7-0 LEAD.

AND THEY WOULD HAVE THE LEAD ALL THE WAY THROUGH.

TUCKER SPECIAL TEAMS WOULD BE A BIT OF A PROBLEM AFTER THE FIRST SCORE, BUT CHRIS BROADWATER HAD ALMOST 200 YARDS ON THE GROUND FOR THE TIGERS.

AND TUCKER WOULD GO ON TO WIN 21-20 TO GET THIS COLQUITT COUNTY SQUAD TO 0-3.

BRING IT BACK TO PRESENT DAY.

FOR THOSE WHO LIKE TO LOOK IN THE WAY-BACK MACHINE OR THE NOT SO WAY BACK MACHINE, BACK TO 2010.

THE COLQUITT COUNTY TEAM THEN WAS ALSO 0-3.

BUT THEY MADE IT ALL THE WAY TO THE GEORGIA DOME AND PLAYED BROOKWOOD BEFORE GOING TO THAT GAME 15 BUT LOSING TO BROOKWOOD IN THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

SO, IF YOU PAID ATTENTION TO THE MOULTRIE PAPERS WHEN WAYNE GRANDEE, THE GUY WHO HAS COVERED THE PACKERS FOR A LONG TIME, HE SAID THE SEASON IS NOT LOST.

THERE IS PLENTY OF TIME TO TURN THE SHIP AROUND.

TAKING THAT ADVICE.

THAT'S WHAT COLQUITT COUNTY WILL DO TONIGHT AGAINST A TOUGH, TOP RANKED SQUAD.

LET'S GET US UNDER WAY HERE AT RAY MANUS STADIUM.

>> THERE IS A LOOK AT JOHN FORD A MOMENT AGO TALKING ABOUT MARK HARMAN.

28-11 IN HIS FOURTH SEASON AS THE HEAD COACH.

OVERALL IT'S HIS EIGHTH SEASON HERE AT ROSWELL AND THEY WERE 14-1 A YEAR AGO.

SETTING THE SCHOOL RECORD FOR MOST WINS IN A SINGLE SEASON.

THEY HAVE GONE 24-5 SINCE HIS FIRST SEASON WHEN THEY WENT 4-6 UNDER HIM.

THAT WAS FOLLOWING AN O-10 SEASON THE YEAR BEFORE HE BECAME THE HEAD COACH.

>> THEY HAVE REALLY GROWN UP TOGETHER.

HE TALKED ABOUT A LOT OF KIDS TONIGHT, MAKING HIS 30th START.

THAT'S PART OF THE 24-5 THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT.

THE EMOTION OF TONIGHT.

THEY KNOW THE TEAM MAY NOT BE THE SAME PLAYERS AS IT WAS LAST DECEMBER BUT IT'S THE SCHOOL THAT KEPT THEM FROM THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP IN THE DOME.

>> YOU HEARD NELLY TELL YOU THAT IN 2010 THEY WENT 0-3 AND STILL MADE IT TO THE STATE FINALS.

A BUNCH OF TEAMS HAVE GONE 0-3 TO START THE SEASON AND WIN A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

MOSTLY RECENT IT HAPPENED WITH TWO TEAMS IN 2006.

THAT WAS LINCOLN COUNTY AND PEACH COUNTY.

HERE, MAKE NOTE OF THIS, NO TEAM HAS EVER STARTED 0-4 AND WON A STATE TITLE.

COLQUITT COUNTY WILL TRY TO KEEP FROM GOING 0-4 TONIGHT.

WE WON'T KNOW THE STATE TITLE BUSINESS OF ALL THAT UNTIL DECEMBER.

JUST SAW RUSH PROPST, THE LEGENDARY COACH OF THE COLQUITT COUNTY PACKERS.

HIS EIGHTH SEASON IN MOULTRIE.

HE HAS WON 86 GAMES AND TAKEN THEM TO FOUR STATE FINALS AND WON TWO OF THEM.

THREE STATE FINALS.

2010, 2014, 2015.

>> ALWAYS A GREAT CROWD UP HERE IN ROSWELL.

A LOT OF HORNET FANS, A LOT OF GREEN IN THE HOUSE GETTING READY FOR THIS ONE.

>> THE OPENING KICKOFF IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY HEADS UP GEORGIA.

DON'T TEXT AND DRIVE.

DISTRACTED DRIVERS TAKE LIVES.

TURNER BARCKHOFF WITH THE KICKOFF.

IT WILL SAIL IN THE END ZONE.

HE'S HAD ONLY TWO KICKOFFS RETURNED THIS SEASON.

THAT MEANS THE COLQUITT COUNTY PACKERS WILL START AT THEIR OWN 20 YARD LINE.

THERE IS THEIR QUARTERBACK, NUMBER 3, JAY SAUNDERS.

A 5'10", 154 JUNIOR.

COMPLETED 59% OF PASSES FOR 632.

FIVE TOUCHDOWNS AND THREE INTERCEPTIONS.

SEE HIM HOLDING HANDS RIGHT THERE WITH NUMBER 19, DA JOHN EDWARDS.

A FRESHMAN RUNNING BACK THAT THEY'RE EXCITED ABOUT IN MOULTRIE.

THAT'S A COMPLETION TO TY POWELL.

DeANTHONY WILLIAMS MAKES THE TACKLE FOR THE HORNETS.

WE LOOK AT THE PACKERS ON OFFENSE.

UP FRONT.

STOKES HAS AN OFFER FROM UAV.

A 337-POUND SENIOR.

IN THE BACKFIELD.

SECOND PASS COMPLETE TO THE 30 YARD LINE.

SHERONSKY SLOAN, CAME BACK FROM AN INJURY LAST WEEK TO PLAY AGAINST TUCKER.

A LITTLE BIT SHORT.

THIRD DOWN AND ONE FROM THE 29.

>> QUICK HURRY-UP.

SHORT CONTROLLED PASSES.

MOVE THE BALL.

GET YOUR QUARTERBACK SOME CONFIDENCE.

>> WILD CAT.

>> THAT IS J.J. PETERSON, LINING UP IN THE BACKFIELD.

HE GETS DROPS FOR A LOSS BY THE AFOREMENTIONED XAVIER McKINNEY.

BEST ON BEST RIGHT THERE.

FOUR-STAR SAFETY FOR THE HORNETS GOING UP AGAINST A FOUR-STAR OUTSIDE LINEBACKER FOR THE PACKERS.

>> HE READ THAT PLAY WELL.

HE IS SO BIG AND STRONG.

PETERSON DIDN'T HAVE A CHANCE ON THAT THIRD DOWN PLAY.

>> JOHN SHENKER, ALSO THE STARTING TIGHT END, STANDS AT THE 10 YARD LINE TO PUNT.

XAVIER McKINNEY WILL TAKE THE BALL FROM THE 36.

HE HAS SOME ROOM.

DOWN THE 40.

STILL ON THE SIDELINE.

STEPPED OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE 34 YARD LINE.

AND GREAT FIELD POSITION FOR THE HORNETS FOR THEIR FIRST POSSESSION.

>> LESS THAN TWO MINUTES INTO THE GAME AND WE'RE ALREADY TALKING ABOUT McKINNEY.

WATCH THIS MOVE RIGHT THERE.

THAT'S A PRO MOVE.

TRYING TO FIND HIS BLOCKERS.

GETS OUT OF BOUNDS.

WHAT A NICE RETURN FOR THE HORNETS.

IN REALLY GOOD SHAPE.

>> THERE IS THE HORNETS' NEW QUARTERBACK.

MALIK WILLIS.

A TRANSFER FROM WEST LAKE.

THROWN FOR 212, TWO TOUCHDOWNS, RUSHED FOR 190 AND A TOUCHDOWN IN THEIR FIRST TWO GAMES.

PUBLISH.

>> HAND OFF TO SHELDON EVANS ON THE ZONE READ.

HE PICKS UP ABOUT A YARD TO THE 33 YARD LINE.

HORNETS OFFENSE.

TUCKER AT LEFT TACKER.

COMMITTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE.

AND IN THE SECONDARY AND BACKFIELD, SHELDON EVANS.

AND COREY REED, TRANSFER FROM MAYES, COMMITTED TO LOUISVILLE.

WE HAVE A SIDELINE WARNING FOR THE PACKERS AFTER THAT SECOND DOWN CARRY BY EVANS.

EVANS APPROACHING 4,000 YARDS FOR HIS CAREER.

>> HE HAS BEEN A MAINSTAY AND STALWART FOR THE HORNETS ON OFFENSE EVER SINCE HE STARTED CARRYING THE BALL BACK IN HIS FRESHMAN SEASON.

WILLIS NOT ABLE TO GET TO THE OUTSIDE.

HE IS DROPPED.

WE LOOK AT THE PACKERS ON DEFENSE.

>> WYCHE, THE LEADING TACKLER ON THE DEFENSIVE LINE.

JJ PETERSON, THE NUMBER TWO RANKED OUTSIDE LINEBACKER IN THE COUNTRY IN THE JUNIOR CLASS OF 2018.

IN THE SECONDARY.

SHAWN SHAMBURGER, ESPN 3 STAR, HAS AN OFFER FROM AUBURN.

SOUTHERN MISS AND OTHERS.

WILLIS GOING TO TAKE A SACK AS HE'S DROPPED BY WILLIE DEBRUCE.

SECOND SACK OF THE SEASON FOR DEBRUCE.

ROSWELL GOES IN REVERSE AND THEY'LL HAVE TO PUNT.

>> TALK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, THE STRUGGLES ON OFFENSE.

HOW ABOUT THE DEFENSE OF COLQUITT.

THREE NICE DEFENSIVE PLAYS.

GOOD PLAY BY DEBRUS.

6'1" SENIOR IN THE LINEBACKER SPOT.

LEAVING WILLIS NOWHERE TO GO.CE.

6'1" SENIOR IN THE LINEBACKER SPOT.

LEAVING WILLIS NOWHERE TO GO.

>> THEY WENT BACKWARDS.

>> ABOUT EIGHT YARDS.

TURNER BARCKHOFF STANDING ON HIS SIDE TO KICK.

BOOMING KICK.

HE'S NOW PUNTING AS WELL AS PLACE KICKER THIS YEAR.

HE PINS IS INSIDE THE 5 YARD LINE.

BEAUTIFUL PUNT BY BARCKHOFF.

DID HIS JOB AS THE PACKERS ARE BACKED UP TO THE 1 YARD LINE.

>> SMART PLAY BY JUSTICE HARRIS.

GOOD SENIOR MOVE.

HE PUTS HIS HEELS ON THE 1/2 YARD LINE TO PIN THEM AS DEEP AS THEY COULD.

GREAT JOB BY THE SPECIAL TEAMS FOR THE HORNETS.

>> THREE AND OUT BY BOTH TEAMS TO START THEIR POSSESSIONS.

CLOSE TO FOUR MINUTES IN AND SCORELESS HERE IN ROSWELL, GEORGIA.

OPERATING ALMOST OUT OF THEIR OWN END ZONE.

IN FACT, THE QUARTERBACK, SAUNDERS, HALFWAY DEEP IN THE END ZONE, WILL THROW OUT OF HIS END ZONE.

GOING UP TOP.

IT'S UP FOR GRABS AND NOBODY WILL CATCH THAT ONE.

>> THAT WAS DANGEROUS.

>> TAKE A LOOK AT THE ROSWELL HORNETS ON DEFENSE.

THREE STARTERS BACK FROM A YEAR AGO.

CUMBERLANDER HAS OFFERS FROM IOWA STATE, KANSAS STATE AND SOUTHERN MISS.

THEY'RE MISSING TREY LAMAR AND TYRONE HOPPER IN THE LINEBACKER CORPS BUT THEY'RE JUST AS EFFECTIVE.

THERE IS THAT ALL-STAR, DIVISION I SECONDARY.

HARRIS, McKINNEY AND WILLIAMS ALL D-1 POWER FIVE PROSPECTS.

BRIDGEMAN, WHO I DIDN'T MENTION, IS THEIR LEADING TACKLER IN THE SECONDARY.

DAVID AUSTIN, OUR REFEREE.

AND THE ILLEGAL PROCEDURE CALLED ON THE PACKERS WILL MAKE IT HALFWAY TO THE GOAL LINE.

>> ABOUT EIGHT INCHES.

THERE IS THE LEGENDARY RUSH PROPST.

86 WINS AT COLQUITT COUNTY.

262 WINS IN HIS 27 SEASONS AS A HEAD COACH.

AND DID HE GET OUT OF THE END ZONE?

>> I DON'T THINK HE DID.

SEE WHERE THEY MARK IT.

>> I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO SPOT HIM OUT OF THE END ZONE AS THEY TRY TO RUN THE BALL AND BUY SOME BREATHING SPACE.

THAT WAS TY LEGGETT ON THE CARRY.

HE BARELY GOT BACK TO THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

>> THAT WAS REALLY CLOSE TO BEING A SAFETY, MATT.

>> NOW IT'S THIRD DOWN AND 11.

SAUNDERS.

ON THE DOUBLE MOVE UP TOP.

AND IT IS GOING TO TO BE BROKEN UP.

TRYING TO GET IT TO SLOAN.

THAT WAS BRIDGEMAN, THE AFOREMENTIONED JESSE BRIDGEMAN.

THE PACKERS WILL HAVE TO PUNT OUT OF THE BACK OF THEIR END ZONE.

>> WATCH NUMBER 20 ON THE SCREEN.

HE STAYS WITH THE BALL.

PLAYING THE BALL ALL THE WAY.

PLAYING THE BALL.

NICE JOB.

THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE A CATCH BY SLOAN.

INSTEAD, IT WAS NUMBER 20.

JESSE BRIDGEMAN, THE JUNIOR.

THE BIG PLAY TO BRING UP FOURTH DOWN.

>> SHENKER STANDING NEARLY ON THE BACK OF THE END ZONE, BOOTS IT OUT OF THERE.

McKINNEY WILL TAKE IT, BACKING UP TO THE 45.

McKINNEY RUNS INTO HIS OWN MAN AND GOES DOWN AT THE 40.

STILL GREAT FIELD POSITION FOR THE HORNETS AS THEY ARE WINNING THE FIELD POSITION BATTLE HERE ON THEIR FIRST TWO POSSESSIONS.

XAVIER McKINNEY, FOUR-STAR ESPN NUMBER NINE RANKED SAFETY.

ONCE COMMITTED TO ALABAMA THIS TIME A YEAR AGO.

HE WAS COMMITTED TO THE CRIMSON TIDE.

DECOMMITTED.

HE STILL HAS THEM ON HIS LIST.

HE'LL MAKE VISITS TO CLEMSON, FLORIDA AND OHIO STATE AT SOME POINT DURING THE FALL.

>> HE LOOKS LIKE HE'S READY TO EXPLODE OUT THERE.

AT ANY POINT HE'S GOING TO BREAK SOMETHING OFF.

>> BACK ON OFFENSE FOR THE HORNETS.

WILLIS THROWS.

THAT IS COMPLETE TO KENTRELL BARBER.

HE PICKED UP ABOUT SEVEN ON THE PLAY.

>> BARBER, NICE CONTROL RIGHT HERE.

GOT NOTHING GOING IN YOUR FIRST SERIES.

SMART MOVE HERE ON FIRST DOWN TO GET SOME POSITIVE YARDS.

NICE PITCH AND CATCH AND THE HORNETS ARE ON THE MOVE.

>> SECOND DOWN.

FAKES THE HANDOFF.

AND MERRITT GRABS WILLIS BEFORE HE CAN GET FREE.

NICE OPEN-FIELD TACKLE BY BRIAN MERRITT, THE 6-FOOT 280 TACKLE.

>> THIS DEFENSE LOOKS REALLY GOOD FOR A BUNCH OF YOUNG GUYS.

LOOK AT NUMBER 60 SHAKE OFF THE WOULD-BE BLOCKER.

HIS EYES ON THE QUARTERBACK AND MAKES THE BIG PLAY.

FORCES THIRD DOWN.

>> THIRD DOWN AND THREE.

LOSSES TO MILL CREEK, 34-27 IN THE OPENER.

17-14 TO FLORIDA'S AMERICAN HERITAGE AND LAST WEEK TO TUCKER.

EVANS HAS THE FIRST DOWN AND GANG-TACKLED AT THE 30 YARD LINE.

NEVER DID GET HIM ON THE GROUND.

>> NO.

HE IS HARD TO BRING DOWN.

HE IS A SOLID 5'9", 205.

FINALLY A SENIOR.

WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS YOUNG MAN FOR A COUPLE OF SEASONS.

>> CAREER NUMBERS, ALMOST 4,000 YARDS.

HE'LL BREAK THAT TONIGHT.

AVERAGING OVER 7 YARDS A CARRY THIS SEASON.

>> 49 TOUCHDOWNS.

HE CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER THEM ALL.

>> RIGHT.

>> THAT MIGHT GO.

COREY REED TO THE END ZONE.

TOUCHDOWN.

>> BIG PLAY RIGHT THERE.

ROSWELL DRAWING FIRST BLOOD.

NICE CALL RIGHT THERE BY WILLIS.

SEES HIS MAN ONE ON ONE.

REED, THE SENIOR, SMART MOVE TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.

ONE MORE LOOK AT IT.

NICE MOVE.

THE DEFENDER GOING FOR THE BALL.

INSTEAD.

NOBODY BEHIND HIM.

OUT OF POSITION.

GREAT JOB.

NICE PLAY THERE ON THE OFFENSE FOR ROSWELL.

THEY WET ON THE BOARD FIRST.

>> BARCKHOFF LOOKS LIKE HE HIT A DIVOT AND MISSED HIS FIRST P.A.T.

OF THE SEASON.

LOOKED LIKE HE KICKED THE GROUND.

THEY HAVE NEW TURF HERE AT ROSWELL THIS YEAR.

THIS IS JUST THE SECOND GAME THEY'VE PLAYED ON IT.

IT LOOKED LIKE HE HIT THE TURF AS HE WAS TRYING TO GO THROUGH AND KICK THAT BALL.

IT'S A 30-YARD TOUCHDOWN PASS FROM WILLIS TO COREY REED, THE COMMITMENT TO LOUISVILLE.

AND A TRANSFER FROM MAYES.

AND ROSWELL ON THE BOARD 6-0.

>>> LET'S TAKE A LIVE LOOK-IN.

DOWN IN SOUTH GEORGIA WHERE THE VALDOSTA WILDCATS, 3-A -- RATHER, NUMBER 3 IN 6-A LEADING TIFT COUNTY 14-0 RIGHT NOW.

VALDOSTA IN THE WHITE.

TIFT IN THE BLACK.

LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE GOING TO GET ON THE BOARD.

AND TIFT COUNTY GETS IN THE END ZONE TO MAKE IT A 14-6 GAME IN THE FIRST QUARTER.

>> BIG PLAY RIGHT THERE.

>> BACK HERE AT ROSWELL.

PACKED HOUSE.

PACKED HOUSE OVER AN THE OPPOSITE SIDE, THE VISITORS' SIDE AS WELL WHERE THE FANS FROM COLQUITT COUNTY, GEORGIA, MADE THE 230-MILE TREK NORTH TO ROSWELL.

REMATCH OF THE 2015 STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

AND THAT VICTORY FOR COLQUITT COUNTY LAST DECEMBER 12th WAS THEIR 30th IN A ROW BUT THEY'VE NOT WON A GAME SINCE.

>> RARE 0-3 START AS YOU TALKED ABOUT.

BOY, NOBODY -- FEW TEAMS TRAVEL AS WELL AS THE COLQUITT COUNTY.

HERE WE ARE IN SEPTEMBER AND THEY HAVE SEVERAL HUNDRED FANS HERE.

A WARM FRIDAY NIGHT.

VERY HUMID OUT HERE.

>> JOHN FORD'S TEAM WENT 40 YARDS IN FOUR PLAYS.

THE LAST 30 ON THE PASS FROM MALIK WILLIS TO COREY REED.

BARCKHOFF WILL TEE IT UP AND KICK IT OFF.

PETERSON RETREATS TO THE 1 YARD LINE.

HOW ATHLETIC DO YOU HAVE TO BE TO BE AN OUTSIDE LINEBACKER RETURNING KICKS?

6'2", 210.

>> TO SEE A GUY WITH THAT SIZE AND THAT KIND OF SPEED COME BARRELLING AT YOU.

>> YOU USUALLY THINK, KICK RETURNER, 5'9", 170.

SHIFTY.

THEN YOU HAVE A 6'2", 210 BULLDOZER GOING AT YOU FULL SPEED.

>> THAT'S RIGHT.

NIMBLE FEET TOO.

>> MAN, HE'S GOING TO BE SOME KIND OF WEAPON.

>> YEAH.

>> LIKE I SAID ON THE RECRUITING ROUNDUP, EVENTUALLY COACH PRESENTS HOPES TO GET HIM IN ON THE OFFENSE AT LEAST TEN PLAYS A GAME.

TY POWELL WITH THE CATCH.

SPINS TO THE OUTSIDE.

AND POWELL WILL BE DROPPED AT THE 27 YARD LINE.

>> POWELL, A NICE, ATHLETIC MOVE.

WATCH IT ONE MORE TIME AGAIN.

CONTROLLED PASSES BY SAUNDERS.

A LOT OF GREEN SHIRTS, TRYING TO OUTRUN HIM.

GOOD PURSUIT BY THE HORNETS BUT NICE JOB.

>> 17 CATCHES THIS SEASON FOR POWELL WHO ENTERED THE GAME 16, 201 AND COUPLE OF TOUCHDOWNS.

AND POWELL GETS HIS SECOND CONSECUTIVE CATCH.

THAT'S A FIRST DOWN.

HE IS BROUGHT TO THE GROUND BY HARRIS.

>> THAT COULD HAVE GONE FOR BIG YARDS IF HE DIDN'T WRAP HIM UP.

WE SAW SIMILAR PLAYING BY ROSWELL BEFORE THAT.

WATCH THIS.

NICE MOVE RIGHT HERE.

GOOD CATCH.

HE IS READY TO TAKE OFF AND RUN.

>> FIRST FIRST DOWN OF THE BALL GAME FOR THE PACKERS.

AND TO THE AIR.

MISCOMMUNICATION ON THE ROUTE.

SLOAN WAS THE INTENDED TARGET.

HE BROKE OUTSIDE.

SAUNDERS THREW INSIDE.

>> GOOD READ, THOUGH.

TALK ABOUT THIS SECONDARY AND HOW, AGAIN, YOU'VE GOT THREE POWER DIVISION I CALIBER DEFENDERS IN THE SECONDARY.

THAT WAS ONE.

RAY REED RIGHT THERE.

MIGHT HAVE BEEN DAWSON.

IT WAS READ TO BREAK THAT UP.

>> SECOND DOWN.

TY LEGGETT ON THE CARRY.

LEGGETT ACROSS THE 45 AND HAS THE FIRST DOWN.

SECOND FIRST DOWN FOR THE PACKERS.

TY LEGGETT, 5'8", 168 SOPHOMORE.

>> A GOOD MIX OF RUN AND PASS BY COLQUITT.

A LOT OF PASSES AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE QUICK DRAW RIGHT THERE.

GOOD JOB TO TURN UPFIELD.

GOOD VISION.

FINDING THE OPEN HOLE.

HURRY UP OFFENSE FOR THE PACKERS.

>> IT'S BEEN LEGGETT EARLY ON SINCE THE FIRST PERIOD, INSTEAD OF EDWARDS.

SAUNDERS STEPS UP AND RUN AND GETS HIT FROM BEHIND AT THE 49 YARD LINE.

THAT'S MITCH STONE.

THE LINEBACKER.

>> GOOD PLAYS THERE.

THAT PLAY WAS PREDICATED BY THE ROSWELL DEFENSE.

AND THE COVERAGE HERE IN THE SECONDARY.

WATCH THIS.

HE IS CHECKING ALL THE GOOD RECEIVERS.

HE HAS NOWHERE TO GO.

EVERYONE IS COVERED.

GREEN SHIRTS EVERYWHERE.

TAKES OFF AND RUNS, GET ONE YARD.

THE ROSWELL SECONDARY DOING ITS JOB TONIGHT.

>> STONE ONE OF THE FOUR BUMPERS THAT JOHN FORD SAYS HE HAS ON THE DEFENSE.

LOOKS LIKE TORY PONDER OUT THERE AS WELL.

THE PASS WAS SHORT.

KEVIN HOLIDAY OUT ON THE COVERAGE.

THEY HAVE ONE OF THEIR RESERVES ALREADY IN THE SECONDARY.

>> THIRD DOWN AND NINE.

SAUNDERS STEPS UP.

WILL THROW ACROSS HIS BODY.

INCOMPLETE.

TRYING TO CONNECT WITH A DIVING TY POWELL AT THE 31 YARD LINE.

LOOKS LIKE THE PACKERS WILL HAVE TO GIVE IT UP.

>> SAUNDERS DIDN'T COMPLETE THAT BUT I REALLY LIKE HIS ATHLETICISM AND THE PRESENCE TO STAY WITH THE PLAY.

HE COULD HAVE GONE DOWN EARLIER.

RECOVERED HIMSELF.

HE COULDN'T RUN TO GET THE FIRST DOWN.

TRIED TO THROW IT DOWNFIELD.

HE KEPT THE PLAY ALIVE AND HAD THE PRESENCE TO TRY TO GO FOR IT.

AGAIN.

BABY STEPS LEARNING, ONE DAY HE'LL COMPLETE THAT PASS AND GET THE FIRST DOWN.

>> McKINNEY PACKS UP TO THE 8 YARD LINE AND CALLS FAIR CATCH.

SO COLQUITT COUNTY ABLE TO FLIP THE FIELD AND PIN ROSWELL DEEP IN THEIR OWN TERRITORY AS WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE HORNETS' RESUME.

REACHED THE FINALS LAST YEAR IN 2015.

14-1.

BEST RECORD IN SCHOOL HISTORY.

COLQUITT COUNTY, OF COURSE, THE ONLY TEAM TO BEAT THEM.

THREE-TIME STATE CHAMPS IN '06.

'68, '70.

TIM McFARLAND AND RAY MANUS.

A LONG LINE OF GREAT COACHES WHO HAVE LED THIS HORNETS PROGRAM OVER THE YEARS.

McFARLIN NOW AT BLESSED TRINITY.

THEY PLAYED IN IRELAND.

>> THAT'S A ROAD TRIP.

>> FIRST AND TEN.

HORNETS BACKED UP IN THEIR OWN END.

WILLIS THROWS IT OUT OF THERE AND OFF THE HANDS OF COMMA.

>> WE CALLED HIS NAME A LOT IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME LAST DECEMBER.

IT WAS ALMOST A SWEET PLAY.

A LITTLE HIGH.

I LIKE THE PUMP FAKE TO FREEZE THE DEFENSE.

>> THAT'S A TOUGH BALL TO CATCH.

COMMA, WE'VE SEEN HIM MAKE THOSE CATCHES.

>> COMMA HAS OFFERS FROM GEORGIA TECH, LOUISVILLE AND WEST VIRGINIA.

SHELDON EVANS ON THE RUN.

COUPLE OF YARDS FOR EVANS ON THE PLAY.

TACKLED BY SEMAJ WILLIS, THE DEFENSIVE TACKLE.

IT WILL BE THIRD DOWN AND 7.

>> IMPORTANT PLAY EARLY ON FOR THE COLQUITT DEFENSE.

WANT TO HOLD THEM AGAIN.

CAN YOU HOLD THEM HERE AND TRY TO GET YOUR OFFENSE IN GOOD FIELD POSITION.

>> WILLIS, 2 FOR 4.

40 YARDS.

HE'LL RUN IT AND GET DROPPED BY PETERSON AT THE 10 YARD LINE.

LOST YARDAGE ON THAT PLAY, AND THE HORNETS WILL HAVE TO KICK OUT OF THEIR OWN END ZONE.

>> PACKERS' DEFENSE, NICE JOB RIGHT HERE.

WATCH WILLIS HERE AGAIN, LOOKING DOWNFIELD.

NOWHERE TO GO.

HIS MAN IS COVERED.

HE MIGHT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET COMMA.

I THINK WILLIS MAY HAVE GIVEN UP TOO SOON.

COULD HAVE BEEN A BIG GAIN OR MORE.

>> BARCKHOFF STANDING ABOUT A YARD OR YARD AND A HALF DEEP IN HIS END ZONE TO KICK.

>> KNOCKS IT OUT OF THERE.

FAIR CATCH IS CALLED FOR BY PONDER AT THE 46 YARD LINE.

AND SO THE PACKERS, SUCCESSFUL AFTER FLIPPING THE FIELD.

AND PINNING THE HORNETS DEEP.

THEY GET THE BALL BACK ON THE ROSWELL SIDE OF THE 50.

LARRY, YOU GET THE IMPRESSION HERE EARLY IN THE SEASON, HAVING WATCHED THIS GAME THUS FAR AND THE GAME AGAINST MILL CREEK AND AMERICAN HERITAGE ON NATIONAL TELEVISION THAT EARLY ON, AS ODD AS IT MAY SOUND, THIS RUSH PROPST TEAM THAT'S KNOWN FOR ITS HIGH-FLYING OFFENSE MIGHT HAVE TO BE CARRIED BY THE DEFENSE.

>> YEAH.

I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO BE.

WE'VE SEEN SO MANY TIMES THEY'LL THROW THE BALL UP AND YOU THINK THEY'RE STRUGGLING.

THEY GET A TOUCHDOWN.

ONCE THEY GET ONE, THEY GET THREE.

IT'S NOT THAT KIND OF OFFENSE HERE RIGHT NOW.

THE DEFENSE, LOOKING GOOD SO FAR.

DOWN 6-0.

>> THE HARD-CHARGING FRESHMAN EDWARDS, DOWN TO THE 39 YARD LINE AS HE PICKS UP SIX ON THE PLAY.

>> COACH LOVES HIM, DOESN'T HE?

TALKING TO HIM EARLIER THIS WEEK, HE IS -- HE SAID I HAVEN'T -- I DON'T RECALL A COACH WITH MORE PRAISE FOR A FRESHMAN THAN RUSH PROPST HAD FOR EDWARDS IN OUR CHAT THIS WEEK.

>> DAIJUN EDWARDS IS NICK CHUBB MADE ALL OVER.

HIGH PRAISE.

NEARLY INTERCEPTED.

POWELL THE INTENDED TARGET.

XAVIER McKINNEY NEARLY GOT HIS MITTS ON HIM.

>> THAT ROSWELL SECONDARY AS EXPECTED MAKING THINGS DIFFICULT FOR JAY SAUNDERS.

SAUNDERS THINKS HE HAS A MAN OPEN.

AND McKINNEY, THE GREAT SPEED, CLOSES SO FAST.

READING WHAT THEY'RE DOING, A LOT OF UNDERNEATH STUFF.

McKINNEY'S GOT THAT.

FADED INTO IT.

ALMOST GOT A PICK.

>> SAUNDERS 4 FOR 10.

25 YARDS.

TO THE AIR AGAIN.

OH!

AND McKINNEY PUTS A LICK ON SLOAN, WHO MAKES THE GRAB AT THE 35 AND HOLDS ON.

THAT MIGHT BE GOOD FOR A FIRST DOWN.

BUT LOOK AT McKINNEY.

HE IS ROCKED UP.

HE IS A GOOD-LOOKING PROSPECT.

>> HE JUST CAME LOADED.

WATCH THIS PLAY RIGHT HERE.

SAUNDERS.

HE'S THERE.

JUST LEVELS HIM.

ONE MORE LOOK AT IT.

>> NICE JOB RIGHT THERE BY SLOAN TO HOLD ON.

>> FIRST AND TEN.

SAUNDERS IN TROUBLE.

THROWS IT AWAY.

NEARLY SACKED BY LA LAMON TITUS.

>> THIS ROSWELL TEAM IS COMING AT THEM.

GETS AROUND, BEATS THE BLOCK RIGHT THERE.

TALKED TO COACH PROPST ABOUT THE INEXPERIENCE.

THAT LINE DIDN'T HOLD THE BLOCK.

>> SECOND DOWN AND TEN.

HANDOFF, LEGGETT.

TRYING TO GET TO THE OUTSIDE.

AND McKINNEY IS GOING TO GET THERE BEFORE HE CAN TURN THE CORNER AND DROP HIM FOR A LOSS.

I THINK BY NOW, CLOSE TO 11 MINUTES INTO THIS BALL GAME, YOU ARE IMPRESSED BY McKINNEY, AREN'T YOU?

>> VERY IMPRESSED.

HE IS A BUNDLE OF ENERGY.

HE'S IN EVERY SINGLE PLAY.

WAIT, WAIT.

BE PATIENT.

SEE IF YOUR BACKER -- I GOT YOU COVERED.

TACKLE HIM FOR A LOSS.

>> IF YOU'RE A FAN OF THE CLEMSON TIGERS, FLORIDA GATORS AND OHIO STATE BUCKEYES, BE HAPPY, HE'S ALREADY PLANNED OFFICIAL VISITS TO YOUR SCHOOL THIS FALL.

THIRD DOWN AND LONG.

SAUNDERS STEPS UP.

RUNS PAST THE YARD MARKER, STEPS OUT OF BOUNDS.

NOW IT'S GOING TO BE FOURTH DOWN.

>> ONCE AGAIN, THE ROSWELL SECONDARY, NOT TO SOUND LIKE A BROKEN RECORD BUT WE'RE GOING TO SAY THIS A LOT TONIGHT.

THE DEFENSE BACK FOUR, HOW GOOD THEY ARE.

THEY'RE NOT GIVING SAUNDERS ANY GOOD LOOKS.

>> McKINNEY SAYS HE WILL NOT ANNOUNCE UNTIL THE UNDERARMOUR ALL-AMERICAN GAME IN JANUARY.

>> NO REASON TO.

TAKE YOUR TIME AND MAKE A GOOD CHOICE.

>> FOURTH AND EIGHT.

THE PACKERS GOING FOR IT FROM THE 31.

SAUNDERS STEPS IN THERE.

IT'S CAUGHT FOR A FIRST DOWN BY SHENKER, THE TIGHT END.

DOWN TO THE 10 YARD LINE.

>> HE KEPT RUNNING AND TURNED AT THE LAST MINUTE.

WHAT ROSWELL IS DOING IS WAITING FOR THE TURN TO SET UP.

WATCH THIS.

HE KNOWS WHERE IT'S GOING.

HE THROWS IT BEFORE.

HE PUSHES OFF TO GIVE HIMSELF ROOM.

TURNS AROUND, THE BALL IS RIGHT THERE.

THAT'S A GREAT JOB RIGHT THERE OF THE PRACTICE PITCH AND CATCH.

HE KNOWS HOW MANY STEPS TO TAKE.

GREAT JOB RIGHT THERE BY THE QUARTERBACK AND YOUR TIGHT END.

>> 23-YARD PICKUP.

THE BALL IS BATTED OUT LOOSE BACK AT THE 35 YARD LINE!

THIS COULD BE A STUPID SCORE.

WE'LL SEE.

WILL THE HORNETS RECOVER.

THEY DO AT THE 45 YARD LINE.

WOW!

MITCH STONE COMES UP WITH THE LOOSE BALL.

>> THAT'S A BIG PLAY.

THAT'S ONE OF THOSE -- THOSE PLAYS, MATTHEW, YOU PRACTICE ALL SUMMER AND FALL LONG.

REACH IN AND PUNCH IT OUT.

REACHES IN, MAKES THE TACKLE.

MORE IMPORTANTLY, NOT ONLY DOES HE KNOCK IT OUT, HE KNOCKS IT 20 YARDS DOWNFIELD.

>> HE MAY HAVE KICKED IT.

MAX BOYD PUNCHED IT OUT OF THE HAND OF DAIJUN EDWARDS.

YOU TALK ABOUT A 30-YARD FUMBLE RECOVERY BACKWARDS.

NOW ROSWELL BACK ON OFFENSE HERE IN THE FINAL MINUTE OF THIS FIRST QUARTER.

>> IT WAS SAUNDERS WHO MADE THE TACKLE.

>> OR ELSE THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN DOWN TWO TOUCHDOWNS.

>> YEAH.

THE RUNNING BACK, EDWARDS, I DON'T THINK HE REALIZED HE DIDN'T HAVE THE BALL.

HE KEPT RUNNING, LOOKED DOWN AND SAID, OH, WAIT A MINUTE.

>> CLOCK STOPPED MOMENTARILY.

EIGHT SECONDS.

NOW THE OFFICIAL HAS BLOWN IT BACK IN PLAY AND THE FINAL SECONDS OF THE FIRST QUARTER WILL COME TO A CLOSE.

>> WE'VE PLAYED 12 MINUTES FROM RAY MANUS STADIUM IN ROSWELL.

THE HORNETS ON TOP AFTER A TOUCHDOWN PASS FROM WILLIS TO REED.

NOW THEY'VE GOT THE BALL NEAR MIDFIELD WHEN WE COME BACK.

>>> WELCOME BACK.

ROSWELL WITH A 6-0 LEAD ON COLQUITT COUNTY.

WHAT'S GOING ON AROUND THE STATE?

NEXT WEEK ARCHER WILL BE ON THE AIR AGAINST NORCROSS.

THEY TRAIL MILL CREEK BY THE SCORE OF 7-3.

SAVANNAH CHRISTIAN LEADING COUNTY 14-7.

COMMERCE LEADING LAKEVIEW 21-0.

HEARD IN A BATTLE OF TOP TENS.

14-0 OVER DARLINGTON.

MACK UPSTAIRS TO MATT AND LARRY.

>> BEHIND YOU, NELLY, ALEX GRUBER NUMBER 85 AND NUMBER 22 JADEN HARRIS ARE PUTTING ON A DANCE SHOW.

THEY DIDN'T KNOW THEY WERE ON TELEVISION BUT THEY WERE RIGHT BEHIND YOU PROVIDING ENTERTAINMENT.

>> DANCING WITH THE STARS RIGHT HERE IN ROSWELL.

>> SECOND DOWN FROM THE 50.

EVANS GETS THE CARRY, PICKS UP A COUPLE OF YARDS AND THE BALL IS OUT AND RECOVERED BY THE PACKERS.

SHAWN SHAMBURGER PICKS UP THE BALL.

>> WE KNEW ROSWELL -- JUST A SIMPLE STRIP RULE.

GET IN, PULL IT OUT.

THAT'S WHAT HE DID.

GREAT JOB RIGHT THERE BY DY'NARIAN WYCHE, THE SENIOR.

ONE OF THE STARS OF THIS -- OF THIS PACKERS DEFENSE COMES UP BIG RIGHT THERE AND GIVES HIS OFFENSE THE BALL BACK.

>> WHAT'S AMAZING ABOUT THIS COLQUITT COUNTY DEFENSE IS THAT THEY RETURNED ONLY ONE FULL-TIME STARTER ON THE DEFENSIVE SIDE OF THE BALL FROM A YEAR AGO.

THAT'S THEIR CORNER, QUAN WALKER.

JJ PETERSON STARTED THE LAST SIX GAMES OF THE SEASON LAST YEAR.

THE ONLY GUY WHO WAS A FULL-TIME STARTER WAS QUAN WALKER.

ONLY ONE STARTER BACK ON DEFENSE AND LOOK WHAT THEY'VE DONE SO FAR HERE TONIGHT AGAINST THIS POWERFUL ROSWELL OFFENSE.

>> YOU HAVE HAD TWO THREE AND OUTS.

ONE TOUCHDOWN ON A PLAY, AGAIN, WHERE THEY JUST MADE -- GIVE ROSWELL CREDIT FOR A GREAT PLAY.

OTHERWISE, THEY'VE BEEN OUTSTANDING.

>> BACK ON OFFENSE FOR THE PACKERS.

THAT'S PONDER WITH THE CATCH.

AND PONDER IS GOING TO BE DROPPED FOR A LOSS.

BACK AT THE 47 YARD LINE.

BRIDGEMAN AGAIN WHO GOT THERE FIRST.

>> ROSWELL DEFENSE, AGAIN, DOING A NICE JOB WATCHING THE QUARTERBACK, WATCHING THE RECEIVER.

AS SOON AS HE BREAKS, THEY MAKE A RUN AT HIM.

DOING LITTLE HITCH AND GO DOWN THE SIDELINES.

GET THE DEFENDER TO BITE.

ONE ON ONE COVERAGE DOWN THE FIELD FOR A BIG GAIN OR A SCORE.

>> SECOND DOWN AND 12.

>> SAUNDERS STEPS UP INTO THE POCKET.

STONE NEARLY GOT HIM!

RUNNING HIM OUT OF BOUNDS WAS LEANTHONY WILLIAMS, WHO KEPT HIM FROM GETTING ANY FURTHER UPFIELD.

>> GOOD JOB BY THE SECONDARY ONCE AGAIN.

>> LEANTHONY WILLIAMS.

NUMBER 4 FOR THE ROSWELL HORNETS.

ESPN FOUR-STAR, RATED THE NUMBER 20 CORNERBACK IN THE NATION.

ALREADY COMMITTED TO THE CLEMSON TIGERS.

GOING TO JOIN TREY LAMAR UP THERE, THE INCREDIBLE LINEBACKER FOR THE HORNETS A YEAR AGO.

PLAYING AS A FRESHMAN.

SAUNDERS TO THE FAR SIDE.

BROKEN UP BY THE AFOREMENTIONED LEANTHONY WILLIAMS, WHO TAKES A BOW.

>> THEY'RE TRYING TO THROW THE BALL AWAY FROM McKINNEY.

THEN WHAT HAPPENED?

WELL, WILLIAMS IS THERE.

>> THAT'S JUST A GREAT PLAY, REACHING IN.

WELL-TIMED PLAY.

GOOD CATCH.

>> GOOD LUCK TRYING TO THROW ON THIS SECONDARY.

>> YEAH.

>> WILLIAMS COMMITTED TO CLEMSON.

XAVIER McKINNEY CHOOSING FROM ALL THE BIG SHOTS.

>> JUSTICE HARRIS, AN OFFER FROM VANDY AND UCONN.

>> SHENKER IS NOT ABLE TO PIN HIM INSIDE THE 20 YARD LINE.

CAME CLOSE.

THE HORNETS WILL BRING IT OUT TO THE 20.

>> 6-0.

HORNETS ON TOP.

SCORED ON THE TOUCHDOWN PASS FROM MALIK WILLIS TO COREY REED, THE TWO BIG-TIME TRANSFERS IN THEIR FIRST YEAR WITH THE PROGRAM.

>> THE CLOCK -- WILLIS 2 FOR 4 IN THE BALL GAME.

HE IS AN ESPN THREE-STAR ATHLETE WHO HAS COMMITTED TO VIRGINIA TECH.

RUSH PROPST, UPSET ABOUT THE CLOCK.

YEAH.

THEY PUT 20 SECONDS BACK ON THE CLOCK TO THE 11-MINUTE MARK AND RUSH PROPST, UNHAPPY THAT THE CLOCK HASN'T STOPPED.

>> RUSH TOOK A -- GOT INTO A LOT OF TROUBLE ABOUT THAT.

>> HE GOT MAD.

CUT HIMSELF ON THE FORE HEAD WITH THE -- DIDN'T HE HEAD BUTT A PLAYER IN THE HELMET?

>> HE DID.

HE ACTUALLY GOT SUSPENDED FOR THAT AND HAD TO APPEAL THE DECISION.

>> SO RUSH, TRYING TO GET SOME MORE TIME ON THE CLOCK.

THEY DID PUT 20 MORE SECONDS BACK UP AFTER IT HAD RUN DOWN.

THEY PUT IT AT 11.

AND JOHN FORD IS NOW ARGUING THAT PERHAPS RUSH IS GETTING A CHANCE TO ARGUE TOO MUCH.

>> HE GOT SEVEN MORE SECONDS OUT OF IT.

THE EXTRA ARGUMENT PAID OFF.

>> BOUGHT HIMSELF SEVEN MORE SECONDS.

WE'LL WAIT AND SEE WHETHER THE SEVEN SECONDS MEAN SOMETHING.

>> HARRIS.

THROWS.

AND NEARLY INTERCEPTED.

THAT WAS A BIG-TIME PLAY BY KALEB DAWSON, WHO SEPARATED JAYDEN COMMA FROM THE BALL.

THE LOOSE BALL IN THE AIR NEARLY FELL RIGHT INTO THE HANDS OF JJ PETERSON.

>> HE WAS RIGHT THERE.

>> GOOD READ HERE BY THE COLQUITT COUNTY DEFENSE TO SEE THIS COMING.

UP-ENDED BY KALEB DAWSON.

>> 5'11", 163 JUNIOR.

SHELDON EVANS.

RUNS IT UPFIELD.

TACKLED BY WILLIE DEBRUCE AT THE 29 YARD LINE.

CLOSE TO A FIRST DOWN!

>> THAT MAY PUT HIM OVER THE 4,000 YARD MARK FOR HIS CAREER, MICROSOFT.

>> -- MATT.

>> NOT A LOT OF RUNNING THE BALL SO FAR TONIGHT FOR EITHER CLUB.

>> NO.

>> GOOD VISION.

BUILT LOW TO THE GROUND.

QUICK SPEED.

>> A YEAR AGO, LARRY, WE TALKED ABOUT SHELDON EVANS WHO A YEAR AGO AT THIS TIME DID NOT HAVE ANY OFFERS.

GOT SOME ON THE TABLE NOW FROM MINNESOTA, GEORGIA SOUTHERN AND APP STATE.

>> WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THAT OPENING WEEKEND.

>> THAT'S GOING TO GIVE ROSWELL THE FIRST DOWN.

I BELIEVE THAT WAS A SIDELINE PENALTY, THE SECOND TIME THEY'VE BEEN WHISTLED FOR THAT VIOLATION.

FIRST TIME A WARNING, THE SECOND TIME THE 5-YARD PENALTY.

>> FINISHING UP ON EVANS.

WE TALKED LAST YEAR ABOUT BEING THE DEFENSIVE BACK NO ONE HAD NOTICED.

FINALLY THEY'RE PAYING ATTENTION.

>> RIGHT UP THE MIDDLE.

PAY ATTENTION TO THAT!

>> MAY BE GONE.

LOOK WHO RUNS HIM DOWN.

>> EVANS IS CAUGHT AT THE 18 YARD LINE BY PETERSON.

>> TELL YOU WHAT.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT PETERSON 40-YARD DASH TIME IS.

>> FASTER THAN EVANS.

>> SURE IS.

LOOK AT THIS.

THE SENIOR.

LOOK AT THIS.

A SMALL SEAM AND HE EXPLOITS IT.

OFF TO THE RACES.

OUT OF NOWHERE NUMBER 47, THE LINEBACKER.

>> WOW!

>> HE WAS OUT OF THE PICTURE.

>> HE WAS!

>> EVANS.

DROPPED THAT TIME BY NELSON LOUIS.

>> GOOD JOB BY THE ROSWELL LINE.

WATCH THEIR BLOCKING SCHEME.

THESE GUYS HAVE PLAYED TOGETHER SO LONG.

WE'VE TALKED ABOUT A LOT OF THESE GUYS ARE 30 IN STARTS.

24-5 THEIR LAST 29 GAMES.

PLAYING SO WELL.

EVANS KNOWS WHERE THE HOLES WILL BE AND HE'S FINDING THEM.

>> FLAG OUT.

>> HOLD ON ROSWELL THERE ON THE OUTSIDE.

>> THAT WAS BARBER ON THE CARRY.

WE DO HAVE A PENALTY HERE AGAINST ROSWELL.

>> TRYING TO GET THE CALL HERE.

MIGHT HAVE BEEN A HOLD.

SEE WHAT THEY'VE GOT.

DAVID AUSTIN WEARING THE WHITE CAP IS OUR REFEREE TONIGHT.

COLQUITT COUNTY AND ROSWELL MEETING FOR JUST THE SECOND TIME EVER.

FIRST TIME, LAST DECEMBER 12th IN THE 6-A STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

AND JOHN FORD, ONE OF THE BRIGHT UP-AND-COMING STARS IN GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL.

24-5 IN HIS LAST 29 GAMES.

FOLLOWING A THREE-YEAR STRETCH IN WHICH THE HORNETS HAD GONE 7-23.

WILLIS.

SCRAMBLES TO HIS RIGHT.

BEING CHASED BY LOUIS.

A MAN WIDE OPEN.

EVANS, WHO PULLS HIS WAY INTO THE END ZONE FOR THE TOUCHDOWN.

>> NICE PLAY RIGHT THERE.

COUPLE OF VETERANS.

EVANS OUT THERE WITH THE BLOCK.

SEES THE QUARTERBACK ON THE RUN.

RELEASES.

WIDE OPEN.

SPEED ON SPEED.

INTO THE END ZONE.

>> SHELDON EVANS.

TAKES IT IN FROM 23 YARDS OUT.

>> BARCKHOFF.

REDEEMS HIMSELF ON THAT KICK TO MAKE IT 13-0.

AS WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE TCSG TOUCHDOWN REPLAY, AND THE 50th CAREER TOUCHDOWN FOR SHELDON EVANS.

>> WHAT A CAREER HE HAS HAD.

AGAIN, HERE IT IS.

WE TALKED ABOUT, AGAIN, WATCH WILLIS RIGHT HERE.

LOOKING DOWNFIELD, NOTHING THERE.

FEELS THE HEAT.

AND WATCH NUMBER 1, EVANS.

HE WAS THERE IN THE FLAT.

RELEASES.

SAFETY VALVE RIGHT THERE.

NOBODY OPEN DOWNFIELD.

HE TAKES IT HIMSELF AND RUNS IT IN.

ONE MORE LOOK.

WILLIS TO HIS RIGHT.

OUT OF THE BACKFIELD FOR EVANS.

GOOD POWER TO FINISH IT OFF AND GET IT INTO THE END ZONE.

TOP OF THE SCREEN.

EVANS, NUMBER 1.

RELEASES.

RELEASES.

ONCE THE LINEBACKER COMMITS, EVANS GOES IN FOR THE SECOND TOUCHDOWN FOR THE HORNETS.

>> SIX-PLAY, 80-YARD DRIVE FOR THE HORNETS.

AND SHELDON EVANS, THE CENTERPIECE OF THAT DRIVE.

A BIG RUN TO SET HIM UP, AND THE 23-YARD TOUCHDOWN RECEPTION TO GET IT IN.

>> GOOD-LOOKING FOOTBALL PLAYER.

HE REALLY IS.

THAT DRIVE WAS ALL EVANS.

THE BIG RUN.

TWO BIG RUNS.

>> YEP.

>> GOING OVER 4,000 RUSHING YARDS IN HIS CAREER.

SCREEN PASS RIGHT THERE.

MAKING THE REST OF IT HAPPEN ON HIS OWN.

>> WENT FOR 136 LAST WEEK AGAINST CENTRAL GWINNETT.

119 IN THE OPENER AGAINST BUFORD.

240 FOR THE SEASON WHEN THE NIGHT STARTED, AND ALREADY WITH ANOTHER BIG NIGHT WORKING HERE AGAINST THE PACKERS.

AND JJ PETERSON STAYING DEEP.

>> WE'RE EARLY SECOND QUARTER.

A LOT OF FOOTBALL LEFT.

>> NON-RETURNABLE OFF THE LEG OF BARCKHOFF.

SO NOW THE PACKERS ARE DOWN TWO SCORES.

AND YOU SEE JUST HOW CRITICAL THAT TURNOVER WAS FOR THEM.

THEY WERE ABOUT TEN, 15 YARDS AWAY FROM TYING THE GAME.

VERY SIMILAR TO LAST WEEK AGAINST TUCKER.

THEY WERE DOWN 20-17 TO THE TIGERS.

FUMBLED THE BALL AT THE 15 YARD LINE WITH TWO MINUTES TO PLAY WHEN THEY HAD A CHANCE TO TIE OR TAKE THE LEAD AND WIN THE GAME.

A CRITICAL PENALTY TONIGHT HAS KEPT THEM OFF THE BOARD SO FAR.

EDWARDS.

FUMBLED THE LAST TIME HE CARRIED THE BALL.

TACKLED BY SAM DIROBERTO, THE LEADING TACKLER ON THE TEAM WITH 24 STOPS THROUGH THEIR FIRST TWO GAMES.

LEADER OF THAT TRIO OF THUMPERS, AS COACH JOHN FORD LIKES TO CALL THEM.

HARD TO MAKE UP FOR THE LOSS OF TREY LAMAR AND TYRONE HOPPER IS NOW AT NORTH CAROLINA.

TWO D-1 LINEBACKERS ON THE FIELD A YEAR AGO.

AND HIT RIGHT IN THE HANDS OF CAM SINGLETARY.

THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN SIX.

THEY BEAT THE COVERAGE.

AND SINGLETARY DROPPED WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A TOUCHDOWN CATCH.

WASN'T A PERFECT THROW BUT HE STILL SHOULD HAVE HAD IT.

>> IT WAS RIGHT THERE.

GOOD PATIENCE BY SAUNDERS.

SEES HIM OPEN.

>> MIGHT HAVE BEEN TIPPED AT THE LAST SECOND BY BRIDGEMAN.

HE MAY HAVE GOTTEN ENOUGH OF HIS FINGERS ON THE BALL TO REDIRECT IT.

>> THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED.

TO BRIDGEMAN, GIVE HIM HALF A STAR RIGHT THERE BECAUSE HE GOT HIS FINGERTIPS ON IT.

EVEN THOUGH HE GOT BEAT ON THE COVERAGE.

>> SAUNDERS DOWNFIELD.

OVERTHROWS SHENKER.

>> WELL, AGAIN, SHENKER IN DOUBLE COVERAGE.

TOUGH TO GET ANYTHING GOING AGAINST THIS SECONDARY.

I LIKED WHAT THEY TRIED AT THE END OF THE FIRST QUARTER WITH SAUNDERS AND SHENKER HOOKING UP AND SHENKER TURNED AT THE LOST MOMENT AFTER THE BALL HAD BEEN THROWN.

ANYTHING TO TRY TO GET THE BALL OUT WITHOUT THE ROSWELL SECONDARY BITING ON IT.

THAT'S A TOUGH CALL.

THAT'S WHAT THEY HAVE TO DO TONIGHT.

>> BIG SHOES TO FILL WITH CHASE PARRISH AT THE NAVAL ACADEMY NOW.

AND JAY SAUNDERS FINDING IT DIFFICULT TO DO THAT.

HE FRANKLY DOESN'T HAVE THE SAME SUPPORTING CAST THAT PARRISH HAD.

POLLARD IS NOW AT THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA.

>> MADE A BIG CATCH LAST DECEMBER, POLLARD.

BIG PLAYS FOR THE PACKERS.

>> A NEW QUARTERBACK FOR THE ROSWELL HORNETS THIS SEASON.

MALIK WILLIS REPLACING QUIN TERREUS NEELY, NOW AT TUSKEGEE.

NOT QUITE THE TOUCH THAT NEILLEY HAD.

BACK TO SHELDON EVANS THEY GO.

NELSON LOUIS MAKING THE TACKLE.

>> IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T TRY TO FIX IT.

EVANS RIGHT NOW IS JUST GETTING INTO HIS -- HITTING HIS STRIDE RIGHT NOW.

>> I MEAN, EVANS IS JUST THE CONSUMMATE SENIOR RUNNING BACK.

SO PHYSICAL, SO TOUGH.

GREAT IN PASS PROTECTION.

GREAT VISION.

COMPLETE PACKAGE FOR THE HORNETS.

SECOND DOWN.

THAT IS COMPLETE.

FIRST TIME TO CHRISTIAN SCOOBY FORD.

KALEB DAWSON GETS HIM ON THE GROUND AT THE 37.

>> TRICKY PLAY FOR THE HORNETS RIGHT THERE.

COULD HAVE BEEN -- TWO RECEIVERS TOO CLOSE TOGETHER ON THAT PICK.

>> THERE IS QUAN WALKER.

5'9", 155 SENIOR.

THE ONLY RETURNING FULL-TIME STARTER FROM LAST YEAR'S STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM ON THE DEFENSIVE SIDE OF THE BALL.

THIRD DOWN AND SEVEN.

WILLIS CHASED BY DEBRUCE.

WILLIS GETS BY DEBRUCE AND GETS THE FIRST DOWN.

BARGE MADE THE TACKLE.

FLAG DOWN ON THE FIELD.

WILLIS GOT BEYOND THE STICKS FOR THE 47.

>> LONG EXPLANATION.

LONG CONVERSATION.

>> DAVID AUSTIN.

>> WOW!

TWO PENALTIES AGAINST COLQUITT.

ONE OF THEM, ILLEGAL SUBSTITUTION.

THE OTHER, THE HOLDING CALL.

EITHER WAY, THE HORNETS HAVE A FIRST DOWN.

I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO TAKE THE PLAY.

I THINK IT GIVES THEM BETTER FIELD POSITION IF THEY TAKE THE PLAY.

WOW.

THEY'RE GOING TO MARK IT OFF ON TOP OF THE PLAY, WHICH IS INTERESTING BECAUSE I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS A DEAD-BALL PENALTY.

>> I DIDN'T EITHER.

BUT THEY MARK IT OFF NONETHELESS DOWN TO THE 44 YARD LINE OF THE PACKERS.

>> THESE ARE THE LITTLE MISTAKES AND THE LITTLE THINGS THAT COACH WAS TALKING ABOUT WITH THIS TEAM, INEXPERIENCE SHOWING.

PENALTIES REALLY HURTING THEM HERE IN THE FIRST HALF.

>> FIRST AND TEN FROM THE 44.

>> WILLIS SWINGS IT OUT HERE TO EVANS.

GOT A LOT OF MEN TO BEAT.

PICKS UP A COUPLE OF YARDS ON THE PLAY.

BRIAN MERRITT.

SEMAJ WILLIS.

>> GOOD JOB BY THE DEFENSE TO CONTAIN HIM.

EVANS CAN BREAK A PLAY OPEN.

>> EVANS, 11 CARRIES FOR 59 YARDS SO FAR TONIGHT.

THAT PUTS HIM AT 299 FOR THE SEASON.

OVER 4,000 FOR HIS CAREER.

COMMA GOES IN MOTION.

REED.

THEY HAND IT OFF TO EVANS.

EVANS GOT A BLOCK OUT THERE BY REED.

AND EVANS -- DOWN AT THE 29.

AS SHAMBURGER WAS HOLDING ON FOR DEAR LIFE.

ANOTHER FIRST DOWN FOR THE HORNETS.

>> IMPRESSIVE KID.

>> LOOK AT THIS.

EVANS GETS THE BALL.

BOY, HE MADE THE FIRST CUT SO QUICKLY.

LOOKED LIKE HE WAS PAST THE LINE IN THREE STEPS.

>> EVANS MIGHT BE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO TEAMS TONIGHT, THE DRAMATIC DIFFERENCE.

THE HORNETS HAVE AN EVANS.

THE PACKERS DON'T HAVE ANYBODY LIKE EVANS.

>> NO, NOT YET.

>> THERE IT IS AGAIN.

>> THAT MIGHT BE THE DIFFERENCE IN THIS BALL GAME.

IT HAS BEEN THE DIFFERENCE IN THIS SECOND QUARTER.

THE HORNETS HAVE FED THE PACKERS A STEADY DOSE OF SHELDON EVANS.

>> HERE IS ONE OF THOSE GUYS, COACH SAID HE'S A GUY THAT GETS STRONGER AS THE GAME GOES ON.

HERE IS A GREAT EXAMPLE.

LOOK AT THE FIRST QUARTER STATS.

WORKING UP A SWEAT.

JERSEY ALL WET.

BUT THAT PLAY RIGHT THERE, INITIAL CONTACT.

THE YARDS HE GETS AFTER CONTACT.

THREE OR FOUR YARDS ONCE HE IS HIT BY A DEFENDER.

>> 14th CARRY OF THE NIGHT.

DOWN TO THE 14 YARD LINE.

SHELDON EVANS -- I'M SORRY.

19 YARD LINE.

SHELDON EVANS.

>> ONCE AGAIN, HE WAS HIT BEFORE THE 20.

KEPT HIS LEGS MOVING.

GOOD LOWER BODY STRENGTH.

JUST STARTING TO FIND HIS GROOVE.

>> FIRST AND 10.

HE GETS STRONGER AS THE GAME GOES ON.

THAT'S BAD NEWS FOR THE PACKERS.

HE'S ALREADY BEEN STRONG.

OPEN.

HOPPER.

CAN'T CONNECT WITH HIM.

>> HELD UP AT THE LINE.

COULDN'T GET FREE.

IF YOU'RE A ROSWELL FAN YOU HAVE TO LIKE WHAT THE HORNETS ARE DOING RIGHT NOW.

KEEP CHIPPING AWAY.

WEARING DOWN THE DEFENSE.

THIS HAS BEEN A LONG DRIVE.

A LOT OF PLAYS.

IT'S A HOT, HUMID NIGHT.

THEY KEEP POUNDING AWAY AT THE COLQUITT FRONT SEVEN.

>> TENTH PLAY OF THE DRIVE RIGHT HERE.

QUARTERBACK KEEPER.

WILLIS.

BY STUBBS AND INTO THE END ZONE.

>> THEY'RE GOING TO CALL IT BACK.

THEY'LL CALL A HOLD THERE.

I DON'T THINK IT WAS A TAKE-DOWN AS MUCH AS THEY WERE BATTLING AND THEY FLIPPED.

WE'LL SEE THE REPLAY IF IT'S TRUE.

IT'S GOING TO GO AGAINST ROSWELL.

COACH FORD CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

>> INSTEAD OF A TOUCHDOWN, THAT WILL MOVE THE BALL BACK TO THE 21.

>> HERE IS THE REPLAY.

WATCH HERE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF YOUR SCREEN.

RIGHT HERE.

THEY'RE GOING DOWN.

THAT'S WHERE THE HOLD WAS CALLED.

AND HE KIND OF TACKLED THE BLOCKER.

LOOKED LIKE THEY FLIPPED.

TEN-YARD PENALTY FOR ROSWELL.

>> WILLIS CAN'T CONNECT WITH REED IN THE CORNER OF THE END ZONE.

NOW IT'S GOING TO BE THIRD DOWN.

ANOTHER FLAG DOWN.

>> CHANGE IN PLAY IF THEY DON'T SCORE ON THIS DRIVE.

IT WILL BE A 20-0 GAME.

>> ILLEGAL SHIFT.

>> JOHN FORD IS SOAKED WITH SWEAT.

CAN'T BELIEVE THE CALL.

RUSH IS SAYING, LET'S DECLINE THAT AND MAKE IT THIRD DOWN AND LONG.

SO RATHER THAN A SECOND DOWN AND 17, THEY'LL TAKE A THIRD DOWN AND 12.

>> GOT TO GET DOWN TO THE 9.

>> THIRD PENALTY ON THE HORNETS.

WILLIS.

TIME.

HE LOSES TIME.

PETERSON DECKS HIM AT THE 23 YARD LINE.

QUARTERBACK SACK NUMBER ONE ON THE SEASON FOR JJ PETERSON.

HIS SECOND TACKLE FOR A LOSS IN THIS GAME.

>> GIVE CREDIT TO THE COLQUITT SECONDARY.

RIGHT PLACE, RIGHT TIME, COVERING ALL THE RECEIVERS, FORCING WILLIS TO HOLD ON TO THE BALL.

ANOTHER LOOK AT IT.

SEES THE GUY HE WANTS.

GOT TWO RECEIVERS.

THIRD RECEIVER DOUBLE-TEAMED IN FRONT OF HIM IN THE END ZONE.

GREAT JOB BY PETERSON TO TAKE ADVANTAGE.

GOOD SPEED AND GOOD POWER TO GET THE SACK.

>> TURNER BARCKHOFF, 2 FOR 3 ON FIELD GOALS THIS YEAR.

DOING SOMETHING VERY HONORABLE AND ADMIRABLE THIS YEAR.

THE KICK IT CAMPAIGN FOR CHILDHOOD CANCER.

FIELD GOAL ATTEMPT IS UP.

IT IS NO GOOD.

DESPITE THAT.

HASN'T BEEN A GREAT NIGHT FOR TURNER THUS FAR WITH THE MISSED P.A.T.

AND MISSED FIELD GOAL BUT HE IS RAISING MONEY FOR CHILDHOOD CANCER.

RAISED OVER $1700 THIS YEAR SO FAR.

HIS GOAL IS $4,000.

>>> WELCOME BACK TO RAY MANUS STADIUM HERE IN ROSWELL.

SUNDAY IS A VERY IMPORTANT DAY HERE IN THE UNITED STATES.

15th ANNIVERSARY OF THE ATTACKS ON THE TWIN TOWERS AND IN PENNSYLVANIA AS WELL.

IT'S 9/11.

WE WANT TO TAKE TIME TO SALUTE THOSE WHO HAVE SERVED OUR COUNTRY TO KEEP US FREE AND HOW WE ARE TODAY AS A NATION.

THERE ARE TOM TIES TO BEING A PATRIOT TO THESE TWO HEAD COACHES.

STARTING WITH THE USS TEXAS AND THE FATHER OF RUSH PROPST.

RUSH ACTUALLY BROUGHT A BOOK THAT WAS GIVEN TO THOSE ON THE SHIP WHO SERVED.

RUSH'S DAD FROM OHATCHEE, ALABAMA, SERVED ON THE SAME BOAT AS TED WILLIAMS.

RUSH TELLS STORIES ABOUT HIS FATHER AND TED WILLIAMS PLAYED PINOCHLE TOGETHER AND HELPED SERVE BACK IN 1945.

NOW TO THE FLIPSIDE.

JOHN FORD.

WE FOUND OUT WHEN WE WERE TALKING TO HIM THIS WEEK THAT HIS GRANDFATHER WAS INVOLVED IN THE LIBERATION OF CZECHOSLOVAKIA, ONE OF THE LAST STRONGHOLDS OF THE GERMAN ARMY BEFORE, ONCE AGAIN, THE END OF THE WAR IN EUROPE.

THE 16th ARMORED BRIGADE UNDER GEORGE PATTON.

THAT WAS HOW IT WAS FOR JOHN FORD.

YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT TRUE PATRIOTS?

IT'S THE HEAD COACH, JOHN FORD AND HIS FAMILY, IT'S THE HEAD COACH OF COLQUITT COUNTY, RUSH PROPST AND HIS FAMILY.

WE WANT TO THANK ALL WHO HAVE SERVED, ALL WHO ARE SERVING AND ALL WHO CONTINUE TO SERVE TO MAKE THIS COUNTRY GREAT.

BACK UPSTAIRS.

>> ON THE USS TEXAS ON THE BATTLES OF OKINAWA AND IWO JIMA, HIS JOB WAS TO LOOK FOR KAMIKAZES.

>> YOU TALK ABOUT PRESSURE.

>> YEAH.

>> THE SHIP IS DEPENDING ON YOU.

>> PASS IS COMPLETE TO POWELL.

AND POWELL UP TO THE 29 YARD LINE.

CLOSE TO THE 30, IT LOOKS LIKE.

>> TACKLED THERE.

TALKING ABOUT HIS DAD AS WELL, GOING ON THE ISLAND.

AT ONE POINT HE HAD TO GO ON AND FIND THE DEAD BODIES, DEAD SOLDIERS AND THEY RAN OUT OF THE STUFF THEY PUT ON THEIR NOSE TO BLOCK THE SMELL.

IT WAS FAIRLY INTENSE.

CERTAINLY APPRECIATE ALL WHO SERVED AND ARE SERVING.

>> HANDOFF TO EDWARDS.

AND EDWARDS, FORWARD A COUPLE OF YARDS.

THEY PICKED UP A FIRST DOWN AN THAT PREVIOUS PASS PLAY TO POWELL.

>> KEVIN HOLIDAY, THE JUNIOR, WE'LL KEEP AN EYE ON THAT.

>> IAN BRINSON.

IAN BRINSON, THE LEFT TACKLE, SHAKEN UP ON THE PLAY FOR THE PACKERS AS WELL.

BACK UNDER THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE AS WE CLICK UNDER FOUR MINUTES TO PLAY HERE IN THE FIRST HALF.

SAUNDERS BEING CHASED.

GETS RID OF IT AT THE LAST MOMENT.

TRIED TO SQUEEZE IT IN THERE TO TORY PONDER.

AGAIN, JESSE BRIDGEMAN.

WE TALK ABOUT THESE THREE D-1 PROSPECTS IN THE ROSWELL SECONDARY.

BUT BRIDGEMAN, THE 5'11", 182 JUNIOR, MAKES AS MANY PLAYS AS ALL OF THEM.

>> THAT'S WHAT MAKES THIS DEFENSE SO HARD TO MOVE THE BALL AGAINST.

YOU CAN'T KEY IN ON ONE OR TWO GUYS.

THEY'RE ALL SO ATHLETIC AND SMART.

GREAT FOOTBALL IQ ON DEFENSE.

>> KIND OF LIKE THE FIFTH BEATLE.

NOBODY KNOWS WHO HE IS.

PETER BEST, BY THE WAY.

SAUNDERS THROWS, COMPLETE TO POWELL.

POWELL SPINS OUT OF A TACKLE AND FINALLY DRIVEN OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE 36 YARD LINE.

GONZALEZ MAKING THE STOP.

NOW IT'S GOING TO BE FOURTH DOWN AND ABOUT FOUR.

>> NICE JOB BY POWELL TO KEEP THAT PLAY ALIVE.

ONE MORE LOOK AT IT HERE.

POWELL, NUMBER 17.

GOOD LOOK HERE BY SAUNDERS.

AGAIN, IT'S BEEN HARD TO MAKE COMPLETED PASSES.

SHAKES OFF THE -- THAT'S NOT JUST ANYBODY.

THAT'S McKINNEY HE SHOOK OFF.

THAT'S TOUGH TO DO.

>> NOT AN EASY TASK RIGHT THERE.

SHENKER ON THE PUNT.

>> LITTLE RUSH.

END OVER END.

AWAY FROM McKINNEY.

WOW.

TOOK A BOUNCE.

AND ROLLS AT LEAST 25 YARDS.

AND FINALLY DEAD AT THE 6 YARD LINE.

GREAT JOB BY SHENKER.

THAT'S THE WAY YOU DO IT.

THOSE BOOMERS THAT BRING RAIN, I MEAN, THEY LOOK PRETTY.

THE ONES THAT BOUNCE AND ROLL 20 YARDS, EVEN MORE EFFECT.

OR AT LEAST AS EFFECTIVE.

>> THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE RETURNED.

YOU SAW THERE McKINNEY THOUGHT ABOUT IT, TRYING TO GRAB IT.

TOO RISKY TO GET TOO CLOSE TO IT.

>> MALIK WILLIS LEADS THE OFFENSE BACK OUT FOR THE HORNETS WITH 3:31 TO PLAY HERE IN THE FIRST HALF AND A 13-0 LEAD FOR ROSWELL.

>> SHELDON EVANS.

NELSON LOUIS.

TIMELY DROPS HIM.

PETERSON HAD HIM BY THE LEGS AND NELSON FINISHED HIM ALONG WITH DANTE MOORE AS WELL.

TAKES THREE GUYS TO GET SHELDON EVANS ON THE GROUND.

>> THE FIRST GUY WHO HITS HIM DOESN'T BRING HIM DOWN.

YOU BETTER MAKE SURE YOU STAY IN PURSUIT.

>> 112 YARDS OF OFFENSE FOR EVANS TONIGHT AND A COUPLE TOUCHDOWNS.

ACTUALLY ONE TOUCHDOWN.

REED SCORED THE OTHER.

>> JUST 16 CARRIES.

MOST HERE IN THE SECOND QUARTER, MATT.

WE TALKED ABOUT IT.

LONG DRIVE A MOMENT AGO.

THIS COLQUITT COUNTY DEFENSE HAS BEEN ON THE FIELD FOR A LONG TIME IN THE FIRST HALF, ESPECIALLY THE SECOND QUARTER RIGHT NOW.

FATIGUE HAS TO BE A PROBLEM PRETTY QUICKLY.

>> THIRD DOWN AND ONE.

BALL AT THE 15.

AND A TIME-OUT CALLED BY THE ROSWELL HORNETS.

THAT WILL BE THE FIRST USED BY EITHER TEAM SO FAR IN THIS HALF.

>> ROSWELL IS UP 13-0.

YOU WATCH COACH FORD, YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW IT.

HE IS INTENSE OUT THERE.

HE DID NOT WANT TO CALL THE TIME-OUT.

>> ROSWELL HORNETS ARE OFF NEXT WEEK.

AND THEN THEY'LL HOST OR BE, RATHER, AT ARCHER, PARDON ME.

TWO FRIDAY NIGHTS FROM NOW.

WE'LL HAVE ARCHER NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT PLAYING AT NORCROSS.

THAT WILL BE OUR FOOTBALL FRIDAY GAME IN GEORGIA NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT.

THE REGION 4 7-A OPENER AGAINST SURPRISING UNDEFEATED LASSITER COMING UP OCTOBER 7th.

THAT'S ALSO THEIR NEXT HOME GAME.

SO NEARLY A MONTH BETWEEN HOME GAMES FOR THE ROSWELL HORNETS.

JOHN FORD LED THE HARNTS HORNETS TO THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME LAST YEAR.

PLAYED FOR DAVE HUNTER AT BROOKWOOD.

WENT TO CLEMSON, GRADUATED.

COACHED THREE YEARS IN SOUTH CAROLINA.

CAME BACK TO ATLANTA AND WORKED WITH BRUCE COBLY AT HIS STAFF AT HARRISON, CAME TO ROSWELL WHEN LEO BARKER TOOK OVER AS A HEAD COACH AS AN ASSISTANT TO BARKER.

THEN BECAME THE HEAD COACH AFTER THEY'D GONE 0-10.

TURNED THE REINS OVER TO FORD.

WHAT A GREAT DECISION THAT WAS FOR THE ROSWELL ADMINISTRATION.

4-6 IN HIS FIRST YEAR.

THAT WAS 2013.

8-4 IN 2014.

THEN LAST YEAR 14-1.

>> BUILDING A POWERHOUSE UP HERE IN NORTH FULTON COUNTY.

>> FIRST AND TEN.

APPROACHING THE TWO-MINUTE MARK.

WILLIS IN TROUBLE.

WYCHE GETS HIM.

HE LOST THE BALL MOMENTARILY BUT WAS ABLE TO RECOVER IT.

THAT WOULD BE THE THIRD SACK OF THE NIGHT FOR THIS COLQUITT COUNTY DEFENSE.

>> NICE PLAY.

GOOD PURSUIT RIGHT HERE.

COLQUITT, WE TALKED ABOUT THEM WEARING DOWN.

MAYBE NOT.

GREAT STRIP BY WHO ELSE, PETERSON.

MAKE THAT WYCHE, NUMBER 49.

>> YEAH.

WYCHE, DEBRUCE AND PETERSON HAVE THEIR SACKS TONIGHT.

GOOD JOB IN THE STRIP.

>> SECOND DOWN AND 21.

INTERESTING HERE IN THE PACKERS DON'T USE A TIME-OUT.

THOUGHT THEY MIGHT WANT TO GET THE BALL BACK.

BALL IS LOOSE!

RECOVERED BY THE PACKERS INSIDE THE 5 YARD LINE.

IT WAS JJ PETERSON WHO HOPPED ON THE CHRISTMAS GIFT.

>> HOW ABOUT THAT FOR THE DEFENSE.

COLQUITT COUNTY, I APOLOGIZE FOR SAYING YOUR DEFENSE MAY BE GETTING WINDED.

BACK-TO-BACK GREAT PLAYS FOR THIS LINE AS THE TIME-OUT WAS CALLED.

THEY GATHER THEMSELF.

EVANS STRIPPED.

GREAT JOB THERE BY NELSON LOUIS.

270-POUND SENIOR LINEMAN.

PETERSON WITH THE PICK.

FIRST AND GOAL FOR THE PACKERS.

AS YOU MENTIONED, THE DEFENSE IS WHAT'S GOING TO BE THE DIFFERENCE FOR THIS COLQUITT COUNTY TEAM THIS SEASON.

>> IT HAS BEEN THE DIFFERENCE FOR THE PACKERS HERE TONIGHT.

NOW THE OFFENSE NEEDS TO ONLY GO FOUR YARDS TO CUT THE ROSWELL LEAD IN HALF.

>> WHAT A BIG TURN OF EVENTS.

A PENALTY KEEPS ROSWELL FROM TAKING A 20-0 LEAD AND A COUPLE MINUTES LATER THE LEAD COULD BE CUT IN HALF.

>> EDWARDS GET THE ROCK.

EDWARDS, NO RUNNING ROOM.

WAS MET BY JUSTIN ELLIS, NUMBER 9.

FIRST TIME WE'VE CALLED ELLIS' NAME TONIGHT.

THEY REALLY MISSED HIM A YEAR AGO WHEN HE SUFFERED HIS KNEE INJURY AND WAS LOST FOR THE SEASON.

>> RIGHT HERE, KEYING IN ON THE RUNNING BACK, EDWARDS.

GREAT SHOT.

YOU CAN SEE WHAT HE SAW, WHICH WAS A LOT OF GREEN.

I DON'T MEAN GRASS.

>> SECOND AND GOAL.

EDWARDS GETS IT.

AND DROPPED BY STONE!

BOYD GOT HIM LOW, STONE GOT HIM ON TOP.

UNDER A MINUTE TO PLAY HERE IN THE FIRST HALF.

NOW IT'S THIRD DOWN AND GOAL.

>> I LIKE THE PLAY CALL RIGHT THERE.

TRYING TO GET HIM OUT.

HOLD THE GUARD, MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN BUT THE HORNET DEFENSE TOO QUICK AND SAVVY.

MAKING THE STOP AND FORCING A THIRD AND GOAL FROM THE THREE.

>> THE PACKERS GET THREE YARDS.

TIME-OUT CALLED BY COLQUITT COUNTY.

>> THAT LEAVES THEM WITH TWO.

SO THE 28 SECONDS NOT SO DIRE.

THE DOWN SITUATION MORE IMPORTANT TO THEM RIGHT NOW.

IT'S NOW THIRD AND GOAL.

THEY'VE GOT PLENTY OF TIME WITH THE TWO TIME-OUTS REMAINING.

BUT THEY'VE REALLY GOT TO GET A TOUCHDOWN HERE.

A FIELD GOAL, OBVIOUSLY, ANY KIND OF POINTS IS BETTER THAN ZERO, BUT TO GET THE BALL AT THE 3 YARD LINE, 4 YARD LINE, AND NOT BE ABLE TO PUNCH IT IN, THAT WOULD REALLY BE A GUT-PUNCH FOR THIS TEAM GOING INTO THE LOCKER ROOM.

THEY JUST NEED TO GET THESE THREE YARDS RIGHT HERE AND SCORE.

>> ALSO, IF YOU CAN SCORE, TO YOUR POINT, MATTHEW, IT GIVES YOU A LOT OF CONFIDENCE.

WHAT A KICK IN THE CONFIDENCE IF YOU'RE DOWN HERE AND DON'T SCORE AND GO INTO THE LOCKER ROOM 13-0.

IT'S A PIVOTAL PLAY HERE FOR THE PACKERS.

>> LET'S SEE IF THEY PUT JJ PETERSON IN THE GAME.

I WOULD BE -- I WOULD BE TEMPTED TO PUT PETERSON IN THERE AND LET HIM RUN WILD CAT.

>> WE TALKED ABOUT GETTING HIM IN AND WORKING HIM INTO THE OFFENSE.

WHY NOT GIVE IT A SHOT NOW.

>> WE SAW IT EARLY IN THE GAME AND HE WAS DROPPED FOR A LOSS ON A THIRD DOWN.

>> HE IS IN THE GAME.

>> HE'S GOING TO BE THE WILD CAT.

THAT'S WHAT I WOULD DO RIGHT HERE.

IS HE GOING TO BE?

>> YEAH.

>> SAUNDERS IS IN THERE.

OR DO THEY?

NO.

PETERSON IS GOING TO BE THE WILD CAT.

AND PETERSON CAN'T GET THERE.

PUSHED BACK.

LAMON TITUS.

IT'S FOURTH DOWN, THE CLOCK MOVING.

THEY HAVE TWO TIME-OUTS REMAINING.

>> WATCH THIS.

THEY KNEW AT THIS POINT, NO QUESTION ABOUT IT.

LOOK AT ALL THE GREEN SHIRTS IN YOUR SCREEN.

THAT'S THE ENTIRE TEAM RIGHT THERE.

>> YOU KNOW WHEN PETERSON IS BACK THERE IN THE WILD CAT WHAT THE INTENTION IS.

YOU'VE JUST GOT TO BE PHYSICAL, MAN UP AND BEAT HIM.

AND COLQUITT COUNTY COULDN'T DO IT.

>> QUESTION IS WHICH SIDE WILL HE RUN ON.

>> LOOKS LIKE PETERSON IS UPSET WITH ONE OF HIS TEAMMATES.

AS HE IS WALKING AWAY FROM THE HUDDLE, HE HAS BEEN ESCORTED AWAY FROM THE OFFENSIVE HUDDLE.

I THINK HE WAS UPSET ABOUT THE BLOCKING UP FRONT.

HE IS CHAPPED.

>> YEAH.

YOU SEE.

>> HE IS UPSET THAT HE DIDN'T GET THE BLOCKING THAT HE WANTED.

>> SO PETERSON IS BEING TAKEN ASIDE.

>> A PAT ON THE BUTT.

>> GO CALM DOWN, YOUNG MAN.

>> THAT'S RIGHT.

GOOD MENTORING.

VETERAN STAFF RIGHT THERE.

KEEP YOUR EMOTIONS IN CHECK.

YOU GOT 24 MINUTES TO PLAY.

>> SO NOW A TIME-OUT HAS BEEN CALLED BY COLQUITT COUNTY.

LEAVES THEM WITH ONE.

EIGHT SECONDS.

THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO TRY THE FIELD GOAL HERE.

>> PETERSON REJOINS THE DEFENSIVE UNIT AGAIN.

COACH WAS TALKING TO HIM.

>> HERE IS A LOOK AT THAT LAST PLAY.

>> WATCH IT HERE.

THE BLOCKERS, GOING FAR LEFT.

HE CUTS IT IN.

THE BLOCKING IS TO THE LEFT.

HAD HE GONE FARTHER LEFT, HE HAD A WHOLE WALL OF BLOCKERS, MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN IN THE END ZONE.

INSTEAD HE TURNS UP FIELD.

GREEN SHIRTS THERE.

NO GAIN.

>> RYAN FITZGERALD.

HE IS 4 FOR 8.

THIS WILL BE A 20-YARD KICK.

YOU SEE SAUNDERS HAD TO HOP UP AND REDIRECT TRAFFIC ON THAT OFFENSIVE LINE TO GET THE BLOCKING STRAIGHT.

PACKERS A LITTLE BIT OUT OF SYNC RIGHT NOW.

THAT KICK IS GOING TO BE GOOD.

20-YARD FIELD GOAL BY RYAN FITZGERALD.

FINALLY GETS THE PACKERS ON THE BOARD.

WITH SIX SECONDS LEFT IN THE HALF.

BUT THIS IS NOT THE COLQUITT COUNTY PACKERS' OFFENSE THAT WE HAVE GROWN ACCUSTOMED TO WATCHING THE LAST FOUR OR FIVE YEARS.

BABY STEPS.

REMEMBER, THAT'S WHAT RUSH PROPST SAID.

>> THAT'S RIGHT.

>> I DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT THEY'RE TAKING STEPS RIGHT NOW.

IT'S MORE LIKE CRAWLING.

COULDN'T GET IT IN FROM THE 4 YARD LINE.

>> THE REPLAY HERE.

WATCH WHAT THE KICKER DOES, MATT FITZGERALD.

>> THE TURF.

>> GIVE HIM CREDIT.

HE TRIED.

>> THAT'S RIGHT.

>> THE PACKERS FINALLY GET ON THE BOARD WITH THE FIELD GOAL BY RYAN FITZGERALD.

RAN FOUR PLAYS AND PICKED UP A YARD.

LIKE I SAID EARLIER, I MEAN, THIS IS NOT A CRITICISM OF THE COLQUITT COUNTY PACKERS.

IT IS WHAT IT IS.

AND RUSH PROPST TOLD US, LOOK, HE KNEW THERE WAS A -- THERE WAS A VERY STRONG LIKELIHOOD THAT THIS WAS GOING TO BE THE SITUATION FOR THE TEAM THIS YEAR.

AND NEXT YEAR'S TEAM ONLY HAS SEVEN SENIORS THEMSELVES.

THEY'VE HIT A LITTLE BIT OF A DRY SPELL, A LITTLE BIT OF A REBUILDING PLACE.

I MEAN, IT'S NOT THAT THEY'RE BAD.

THEY PLAY GREAT COMPETITION AND THEY'VE BEEN CLOSE.

THEY'RE JUST NOT IN SYNC LIKE THEY HAVE BEEN.

THEY DON'T HAVE THE WEAPONS ON OFFENSE THAT THEY HAVE HAD IN THE PAST.

THE BIG DIFFERENCE WHEN YOU'RE MATCHING PERSONNEL COMPARED TO ROSWELL RIGHT NOW IS, AGAIN, THE HORNETS HAVE A SHELDON EVANS.

>> RIGHT.

>> A GUY THAT THEY CAN HOP ON HIS BACK AND RIDE.

AND THE PACKERS DON'T HAVE ANYBODY LIKE THAT.

AT LEAST NOT RIGHT NOW.

>> YEAH.

ROSWELL HAS GUYS WITH BIG-GAME EXPERIENCE.

COLQUITT RIGHT NOW, RUSH WAS SAYING THEY DON'T.

THEY DON'T HAVE THOSE KINDS OF PLAYERS RIGHT NOW IN THE LINEUP, ON THE ROSTER.

>> McKINNEY WILL STEP OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE 23 YARD LINE WITH TWO SECONDS LEFT IN THE FIRST HALF.

>> TRYING TO KILL THE CLOCK, THE CLOCK WASN'T MOVING FAST ENOUGH.

>> SO THEY'LL TAKE IT OUT THERE.

LET'S SEE IF THEY JUST TAKE A KNEE.

>> WELL -- >> SEE IF THEY RUN A PLAY.

>> GOOD HALF BY ROSWELL.

COACH FORD DISAPPOINTED THAT IT'S ONLY 13-3.

COULD HAVE HAD MORE.

>> WELL, RUSH PREACHING PATIENCE TO THE FOLKS DOWN IN MOULTRIE.

AND THEY HAVE GROWN ACCUSTOMED TO WINNING AND WINNING BIG.

THEY'VE WON 30 IN A ROW COMING INTO THIS SEASON.

BUT THEY'RE 0-3 RIGHT NOW AND DOWN TEN AT THE HALF HERE AT ROSWELL.

BARRING SOMETHING CRAZY HERE ON THIS LAST SNAP OF THE SECOND QUARTER.

NOTHING CRAZY, AND THAT'S THE END OF THE HALF.

SO THE ROSWELL HORNETS TAKE A 13-3 LEAD INTO THE LOCKER ROOM.

AND A REMATCH OF THE 2015 STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.

AND SHELDON EVANS HAS BEEN THE DIFFERENCE-MAKER FOR THE HORNETS IN THIS BALL GAME.

91 YARDS RUSHING IN THE FIRST HALF, AND A 23-YARD TOUCHDOWN RECEPTION.

AS WE GO TO NELLY AND JOHN FORD.

>> THE GOAL-LINE STAND WAS BIG.

>> THAT WAS HUGE FOR THE DEFENSE.

WE TURNED IT OVER TWICE, THAT'S TWO TIMES TOO MANY AGAINST THAT BUNCH.

THEY'LL COME BACK WITH A GOOD PLAN IN THE SECOND HALF.

WE CAN'T TURN IT OVER ANYMORE.

>> GROUND AND POUND SHELDON.

HE GETS STRONGER AS THE GAME GOES ON.

>> WE HAVE TO RUN THE BALL AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE PASSING GAME.

WE HAVE TO COME OUT CLEAN BECAUSE I KNOW THEY'RE NOT DONE YET.

>> THAT'S IT FOR THE EARLY PART.

HALFTIME SHOW STARTS RIGHT NOW.

>> THANK YOU, NELLY.

HALFTIME HERE IN ROSWELL, GEORGIA.

13-3 LEAD FOR THE HORNETS, LOOKING TO GO 3-0 ON THE SEASON.

GOT ON THE BOARD IN THE FIRST QUARTER WITH THE TOUCHDOWN PASS FROM WILLIS TO REED.

THEN IN THE SECOND, IT WAS WILLIS, FINDING EVANS.

HE DID THE REST.

>>> WE ARE LIVE AT RAY MANUS STADIUM.

HALFTIME.

THE 50th REGIMENT MARCHING BAND OF COLQUITT COUNTY HAS TAKEN THE FIELD.

LET'S TALK TO JACKIE AND SEE WHAT FANS ARE CHATTING ABOUT IN THE WORLD OF SOCIAL MEDIA.

>> A LOT OF CHATTER ON FACEBOOK AND TWITTER.

MAKE SURE YOU FIND US AND ARE HANGING OUT WITH US.

LET US KNOW WHO YOU'RE ROOTING FOR, SHARE YOUR TEAM SPIRIT AND FIND US ON TWITTER @GPBSPORTS.

WE ASKED A REQUEST ABOUT WHICH TEAM HAS SENT THE MOST PLAYERS ON TO PLAY IN THE NFL.

WE HAVE ANSWERS FOR THAT QUESTION.

WE'LL LET YOU KNOW THOSE.

IT LOOKS LIKE COLQUITT COUNTY IS GOING TO EDGE OUT ROSWELL IN THAT BATTLE.

THEY'VE SENT THREE PLAYERS OFF TO PLAY IN THE NFL.

ANTONIO EDWARDS.

CAMERON ERVING AND NATE LEWIS.

THE COLQUITT COUNTY PLAYERS PLAYED IN THE NFL OR CURRENTRY PLAYING IN THE NFL.

ROSWELL HAS SENT TWO.

A LITTLE TRIVIA FOR YOU, THE HISTORY OF THIS MATCHUP.

A LOT MORE TO GET TO.

FIND US ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

JON NELSON IS JOINED BY A SPECIAL GUEST.

>>> I AM IN THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE.

THANKS FOR HANGING OUT WITH US.

WHAT'S GOING ON AT COLQUITT?

>> WE HAVE A NEW SLOGAN THIS YEAR.

STRIVING FOR SUCCESS.

WE'RE STILL ALWAYS PROUD TO BE PACKERS.

OUR TEACHERS ARE DEDICATED AND WORKING HARD.

OUR STUDENTS ARE WORKING HARD, AND OUR COMMUNITY IS A VERY COMPASSIONATE COMMUNITY.

YOU'LL SEE POSTED ON OUR WEBSITE NEXT WEEK AT OUR HOME GAME WE'RE GOING TO ASK OUR FANS TO WEAR GOLD IN ORDER TO SUPPORT THE VICTIMS AND THOSE WHO WERE AFFECTED BY CHILDHOOD CANCER.

WE HAVE A WONDERFUL COMMUNITY AND A WONDERFUL SCHOOL.

I LOVE BEING IN MOULTRIE.

>> WE'LL SEE YOU IN A FEW WEEKS.

>> THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>> BACK OVER TO THE SET.

>>> A BIG PART OF THE PAGEANTRY OF HIGH SCHOOL IS THE MARCHING BAND, AND WE'LL LISTEN IN TO THE 50th REGIMENT MARCHING BAND OF COLQUITT COUNTY BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS DO JUST AN EXCELLENT JOB.

AGAIN, IT'S 13-3 RIGHT NOW.

ROSWELL IN THE LEAD OVER COLQUITT COUNTY.

ROSWELL IS TOP RANKED.

THEY'RE UNDEFEATED.

COLQUITT HAS LOST THREE GAMES THIS SEASON BY SEVEN POINTS, BY THREE POINTS, BY ONE POINT.

IT SHOULD BE NOTED THIS THEY'VE BEEN A TERRIFIC COMEBACK TEAM.

THEY TRAILED MILL CREEK IN THE CORKY KELL CLASSIC BY 20 POINTS AND CAME BACK AND MADE IT VERY CLOSE.

EARLIER IN THE SHOW WE HAD A GLITCH WHEN WE TRIED TO SHOW YOU OUR DISTRACTED DRIVING STORY.

IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT STORY AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU ALL GET TO SEE THIS.

THE NUMBERS ARE RISING.

OVER 1,000 INJURIES EVERY DAY OCCUR BECAUSE OF DISTRACTED DRIVING.

SO THERE HAS BEEN A HEADS-UP GEORGIA PROGRAM BY THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE ON HIGHWAY SAFETY AND GPB TO EDUCATE YOUNG DRIVERS ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF STAYING SAFE BEHIND THE WHEEL.

>> ASK ANY GEORGIA DRIVER, THE ROAD CAN BE A CONFUSING PLACE.

ADD TO THAT AN ACTIVITY LIKE TEXTING OR EATING.

IT CAN BECOME DOWNRIGHT DANGEROUS.

HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS ARE AMONG THE BIGGEST CULPRITS WHEN IT COMES TO HIGHWAY MULTITASKING.

TAKE THE DISTRACTED DRIVING COURSE TO LEARN ABOUT THE DANG YOURS OF DRIVING DISTRACTED.

UP FIRST GABRIELLA FROM COLQUITT COUNTY AND RACHEL FROM ROSWELL.

>> GABRIELLA, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT OUT OF TODAY'S DISTRACTED DRIVING COURSE?

>> I EXPECT THE FIRST TIME AROUND THE COURSE WILL BE THE EASIEST.

ONCE I PICK UP MY PHONE TO START TEXTING, THAT WILL BE THE REAL CHALLENGE.

>> I AGREE.

I AM A LITTLE NERVOUS FOR THE WHOLE THING, BUT I THINK THE TEXTING WILL BE A BIT HARDER.

>> ALL RIGHT.

ANYTIME YOU'RE READY.

>> OKAY.

>> OKAY.

WE GET AROUND HERE.

WE'LL STOP AND YOU CAN PULL OUT YOUR CELLPHONE.

>> I AM GOING TO TEXT MY MOM, "GO, PACK, GO."

>> DID WE JUST STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF I-75?

WAIT A MINUTE!

YOU THINK SHE WAS CONSISTENT?

>> NO.

CAN'T DO THAT.

>> THE COURSE HAS BEEN COMPLETED.

TIME NOW FOR THE REPORT CARD.

HOW DID THEY DO?

>> THEY DID AS EXPECTED.

THE FIRST TWO UNDISTRACTED LAPS THEY WERE ABLE TO ESTABLISH A GOOD PACE AROUND THE COURSE.

WHEN THEY STARTED TEXTING ON THE LAST TWO LAPS, THAT'S THE SORT OF THING THAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING DISTRACTED.

>> I LEARNED THAT YOU REALLY NEED TO ESTABLISH WHAT YOUR PRIORITIES ARE WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING BECAUSE, IF YOU'RE GOING TO BE FOCUSED ON YOUR PHONE RATHER THAN THE ROAD, THAT'S GOING TO TURN OUT REALLY BAD.

>> WILL YOU TWO EVER TEXT AND DRIVE AGAIN?

>> I HOPE NOT, NO.

>> NO.

>> WELL DONE.

>> AND THAT'S A VERY IMPORTANT MESSAGE.

NOW, IF YOU'RE A GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT, YOU'RE ALSO ELIGIBLE TO ENTER THIS YEAR'S HEADS UP GEORGIA VIDEO CONTEST.

CREATE A 30-SECOND PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF SAFE DRIVING AND YOU COULD TAKE HOME AN APPLE MAC BOOK PRO.

LET'S HEAD TO THE FIELD AND LISTEN IN TO THE MARCHING BAND BROUGHT TO YOU BY REGIONS BANK.

!

!musiC@!!!musiC@!

>>> GREAT JOB BY THE 50th REGIMENT MARCHING BAND OF COLQUITT COUNTY.

>> AS ALWAYS.

>> COMING UP AT THE HALFTIME SHOW WE'LL HEAR FROM THE ROSWELL HIGH SCHOOL MARCHING BAND.

>> JON NELSON VISITS COMMUNITIES IN THE BACK ROADS SEGMENT.

WE'LL TALK TO PARENTS AND HAVE SCORES UPDATED.

IT'S ALL AHEAD WHEN THE FOOTBALL FRIDAYS IN GEORGIA HALFTIME SHOW CONTINUES ON GPB.

>>> WELCOME BACK TO FOOTBALL FRIDAYS IN GEORGIA'S HALFTIME SHOW.

HORNETS LEADING THE PACKERS 13-3 AT THE HALF.

>> ROSWELL BAND GETTING READY.

FIRST IT'S TIME TO GO BACK TO OUR GOOD FRIEND JON NELSON.

>> WE'LL BEAM OVER TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE AND CHECK IN WITH THE HORNETS' PRINCIPAL.

JEROME HUFF.

>> ONCE MORE INTO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE.

THE ONE THING I WANTED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THIS TIME.

YES, WE KNOW THAT ROSWELL SPORTS BLACK, GREEN AND WHITE.

THERE IS A LOT OF PURPLE AROUND FOR A GOOD REASON.

WE HAD ONE OF OUR STUDENTS GET MURDERED RIGHT BEFORE SCHOOL STARTED.

HER FAVORITE COLOR IS PURPLE.

LIKE TRUE ROSWELL TRADITION OUR COMMUNITY PULLED BODY, OUR STUDENT BODY PULLED TOGETHER.

WEARING PURPLE IS A WAY TO REMEMBER NATALIE AND HER FAMILY AND LETTING THEM KNOW WE STILL HAVE THEM IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS.

>> THANKS FOR BEING A GREAT HOST AND WE'LL BE SEEING YOU AROUND.

>> THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>> BACK TO THE SET.

>>> THANK YOU, JON.

IT'S NOW TIME TO LISTEN IN TO THE ROSWELL HIGH SCHOOL BAND BROUGHT TO YOU BY REGIONS BANK.

>>> GREAT JOB BY THE ROSWELL HIGH SCHOOL MARCHING BAND.

TIME TO CHECK OUT THE SCORE BOARD.

RIGHT OFF THE TOP YOU HAVE VALDOSTA LEADING TIFT COUNTY 35-13.

MILL CREEK, SECOND RANKED IN CLASS 7-A LEADING ARCHER 21-3 IN THE SECOND QUARTER.

McEACHERN OVER JONESBORO.

GWINNETT LEADS NORCROSS 14-10.

NORTH SIDE WARNER ROBBINS OVER LANIER.

31-7.

CARTERSVILLE LEADING WESTWOOD.

THOMPSON OVER PACE ACADEMY.

THE GATORS LEADING GRADY 14-6 AT THE HALF.

>> IT WILL BE AN ACTION-PACKED FOOTBALL SEASON HERE ON FOOTBALL FRIDAYS IN GEORGIA.

HERE IS THE SCHEDULE FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON.

NEXT WEEK THE BLUE DEVILS TAKE ON GWINNETT COUNTY.

THEN CLARKE CENTRAL TAKES ON CEDAR SHOALS.

IN OCTOBER, NORTH COBB AND McEACHERN.

THEN WE HIT THE ROAD TO MOULTRIE, GEORGIA, FOR THE CAMDEN COUNTY AT COLQUITT COUNTY GAME.

THEN WE BRING YOU THE BEST MATCHUPS POSSIBLE AS THE REGIONAL TITLES AND THE PLAYOFFS.

ON NOVEMBER 4th WE'RE IN THE STUDIO TO WRAP UP THE REGULAR SEASON.

ON NOVEMBER 11th, WE'RE BACK ON THE GRIDIRON THROUGH THE PLAYOFFS AND ON TO THE GEORGIA DOME FOR THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME ON DECEMBER 11th AND 12th.

GPB IS YOUR HOME FOR HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL ALL SEASON LONG.

>> JON NELSON JOINS US FOR ANOTHER EDITION OF BACKROADS AND BACKFIELDS BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE GEORGIA COTTON COMMISSION.

>> THE NATURAL CHOICE FOR GEORGIA.

THIS WEEK WE HIT THE TRAIL TO SEE WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE A BIG FOOTBALL STAR IN A SMALL TOWN.

>> A LOT OF TALENT IN THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

IT'S A TOP 5 STATE WHEN IT COMES TO TALENT.

DOESN'T MATTER THE SIZE OF THE TOWN OR THE HIGH SCHOOL.

DEALING WITH THINGS IN THE 21st CENTURY WHEN IT COMES TO RECRUITING AND SOCIAL MEDIA.

WE CAUGHT UP WITH A COUPLE OF COACHES FOR THEIR OPINIONS.

>> WHEN JD KING SAID HE WAS GOING TO OKLAHOMA STATE TO PLAY, THERE WERE EYE BROWS RAISED.

IN THE SENSE OF HOW FITZGERALD AND STILL WATER HOOKED UP.

IN TODAY'S WORLD OF RECRUITING THE WORLD IS A SMALL PLACE, AMPLIFIED THAT MUCH MORE WHEN SOCIAL MEDIA BRINGS US CLOSER FASTER.

BECAUSE OF THAT IT'S ANOTHER CHALLENGE FOR GEORGIA HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL COACHES.

>> I THINK THE BIGGEST THING IS DON'T ACT LIKE IT'S NOT THERE.

IT'S THERE.

WE KNOW OUR KIDS ARE THERE.

WE'VE GOT A GUY ON STAFF NAMED JESSE LYNCH THAT'S REALLY STARTED TAKING A LOT OF OUR RECRUITING RESPONSIBILITIES.

BUT HE MONITORS ALL THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA STUFF.

>> SAME CHALLENGES APPLY FOR COACH BRIAN NELSON WHEN YOU HAVE TOP TALENT LIKE MALIC HERRING LOOKING FOR A TEAM.

>> YOU WONDER WHY SOME OF THESE KIDS THAT GET RECRUITED CAN GET BLOWN OUT OF PROPORTION.

BECAUSE, I MEAN, IT'S NOT JUST OUR TINY COMMUNITY NOW.

IT'S, YOU KNOW, ALL THESE COLLEGES THAT HAVE RABID FAN BASES THAT FOLLOW THESE KIDS ON TWITTER AND DO STUFF.

>> IN STRICKLAND'S CASE HE AND THE FITZGERALD STAFF TREAT EVERY ATHLETE EVERY DAY AS A ONE DAY AT A TIME CHALLENGE.

>> THOUGHTS ALL OUR KIDS ARE HEARING FROM US.

I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT.

WHEN THAT OTHER STUFF GETS HERE, THEN WE'LL LOOK AT IT THEN.

>> BELIEVE ME, COACHES HAVE HEARD IT ALL.

AND WILL CONTINUE TO.

>> YOU KNOW, YOU'RE THE BEST PLAYER EVER.

YOU'RE -- AND THEN YOU'VE GOT TO FIND A WAY TO KIND OF MAKE THAT KID THINK THAT HE'S NOT THE BEST PLAYER EVER.

IT'S DIFFICULT.

AND IT'S -- IT'S NOT JUST WITH MALIK.

IT'S WITH A LOT OF THEM.

SO I MEAN, IT'S JUST A CONSTANT BATTLE I THINK YOU FACE NOW COACHING HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL IN 2016.

>> THE FULL CONVERSATION WITH BRIAN NELSON, MARK, WILL BE ON THE FOOTBALL FRIDAYS IN GEORGIA PODCAST NEXT WEEK.

>> BACKROADS AND BACKFIELDS BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE GEORGIA COTTON COMMISSION.

>> THE NATURAL CHOICE FOR POSTGAME TOWELS IN GEORGIA.

>>> IT'S TIME FOR ANOTHER EDITION OF RENT CHECK.

TIME TO CHECK IN WITH THE PARENTS.

SEND IT OVER TO JACKIE BRITON.

>> THANK YOU, MARK.

I AM HERE WITH GREG AND VALLEY BARCKHOFF.

THEIR SON TURNER IS THE KICKER.

YOUR SON IS RAISING AWARENESS FOR CHILDHOOD CANCER.

WHAT DROVE HIM TO DO THAT?

>> ONE OF HIS CLOSE FRIENDS, HIS MOTHER PASSED AWAY A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO FROM CANCER.

WE WENT TO A KICKING CAMP IN WISCONSIN AND FOUND OUT ABOUT KICK-IT FOR CANCER.

IT WAS STARTED BY A KICKER YEARS AGO WHO HAD AN IDEA ABOUT HOW TO RAISE AWARENESS FOR PEDIATRIC CANCER.

TURNER FOUND OUT ABOUT IT AND DECIDED TO SIGN UP AND DEDICATE HIS SENIOR SEASON TO THAT CAUSE.

>> THAT'S AWESOME.

KICK IT FOR CANCER.

TO SOME QUESTIONS, SHALL WE?

OUR FAVORITE PART.

WHAT IS TURNER'S -- WHO IS TURNER'S FAVORITE ATHLETE?

>> OH.

I THINK WE KNOW.

>> IT SHOULD BE ROSWELL KICKER TY LONG.

BUT IT'S PROBABLY -- IT'S PROBABLY ODELL BECKHAM JR. >> CLOSE BUT NOT QUITE.

>> I WOULD HAVE SAID ANTONIO BROWN.

>> YOU'RE RIGHT!

MOM IS RIGHT.

HE IS ON MY FANTASY TEAM.

YOU WIN!

MOMS ARE ALWAYS RIGHT.

YOU GET GPB SWAG FOR HANGING OUT WITH US AND FOR ANSWERING THE QUESTION.

NONE FOR DAD.

JUST KIDDING.

MARK, WE'LL SEND IT BACK TO YOU.

>> THANK YOU, JACKIE.

LET'S SEND IT BACK UP TO THE BOOTH NOW.

MATT STEWART AND LARRY SMITH FOR THE SECOND HALF OF TONIGHT'S BIG GAME BETWEEN ROSWELL AND COLQUITT COUNTY.

FIRST IT'S THE PLAY OF THE GAME.

WE'LL SEE IT AFTER THE BALL GAME.

>>> BACK AT RAY MANUS STADIUM.

HALFTIME HERE IN ROSWELL, GEORGIA, WHERE THE ROSWELL HORNETS HAVE A 13-3 LEAD ON THE TWO-TIME DEFENDING STATE CHAMPION COLQUITT COUNTY PACKERS.

LOOKING BACK AT THE HIGHLIGHTS.

WILLIS TO REED.

>> WILLIS WALKING OUT OF THE LOCKER ROOM.

WILLIS HERE, GREAT JOB HERE.

THE SENIOR, WILLIS.

TO THE SENIOR SHELDON EVANS.

23-YARD PASS PLAY.

13-0.

WATCH THIS PLAY RIGHT HERE.

WILLIS, THE VIRGINIA TECH COMMIT, LOOK AT THE TOP PART OF YOUR SCREEN.

THE HOLD THAT SCREENED WILLIS FOR A TOUCHDOWN RUN.

WOULD HAVE BEEN 19-0 BUT IT WAS CALLED BACK.

THEY GET NOTHING OUT OF IT.

THEN THE FUMBLE HERE.

EVANS DID EVERYTHING RIGHT EXCEPT FOR THIS.

DOWN TO THE 4.

SET UP A FIELD GOAL AND COLQUITT'S ONLY POINTS.

>> THAT'S WHERE WE STAND AT THE HALF.

LET'S SEND IT DOWN TO NELLY STANDING BY WITH COACH RUSH PROPST.

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

HERE WITH THE COACH.

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE FIRST HALF IN A WORD OR TWO?

>> I THOUGHT SLOPPY.

THEY HAD A CHANCE TO PUT US AWAY.

WE DIDN'T.

WE HAD 35 SNAPS, THREE POINTS.

DROPPED A TOUCHDOWN PASS.

WE'VE HAD TWO MISTAKES ON DEFENSE.

SHAMBURGER MISSES A TACKLE, THEY GO THE DISTANCE.

WE DON'T COVER THE BACK OUT OF THE BACKFIELD.

SIMPLE STUFF.

SIMPLE MATH.

THEY SCORE.

AND THAT'S IT.

WE FUMBLE INSIDE THE 10 DOWN THERE.

AND AGAIN, WE JUST HAD MISSED OPPORTUNITIES.

THEY COULD BE UP 28-0.

I MEAN, I THINK BOTH TEAMS HAVE SORT OF PLAYED SLOPPY.

NO WAY THIS GAME RESEMBLES ANYTHING ABOUT LAST YEAR'S STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME ON EITHER SIDE.

AS BAD AS WE HAVE PLAYED OFFENSIVELY EXECUTION-WISE, WE'VE TRADITIONALLY BEEN A SECOND HALF CLUB.

WE WON LAST WEEK.

I CHALLENGE THEM TO GO BACK AND BE WHERE WE'VE BEEN FOR THE LAST SEVEN YEARS IN THE SECOND HALF.

>> GO GET THEM TO THE SECOND HALF.

>> MATT AND LARRY.

>> HERE IS THE NEXT AT THE FIRST HALF STATS, LARRY.

THAT SHOULD BE 36 YARDS RUSHING FOR COLQUITT COUNTY IN THE FIRST HALF.

IT IS 36.

I AM LOOKING AT IT WRONG.

THEY GOT IT RIGHT.

100 YARDS OF TOTAL OFFENSE FOR COLQUITT COUNTY.

167 FOR ROSWELL.

AND THE TURNOVERS HURT BOTH TEAMS.

ROSWELL GIVING UP THE FUMBLE THAT LED TO THREE POINTS.

>> SURPRISING HOW EVEN THE TIME OF POSSESSION IS VIRTUALLY EVEN IN THIS.

I THINK, AGAIN, GREAT JOB BY BOTH DEFENSES.

THE 167 THAT YOU ARE SEEING RIGHT THERE IN TERMS OF TOTAL YARDS FOR ROSWELL, REALLY ABOUT THREE BIG PLAYS MADE THE DIFFERENCE.

OTHERWISE, EVEN STATISTICALLY IT'S AN EVEN GAME RIGHT NOW.

TO RUSH PROPST, WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT.

>> SHELDON EVANS HAS REALLY BEEN THE SINGLE DIFFERENCE IN THESE TWO CLUBS.

THEY'VE GOT EVANS.

PACKERS DON'T HAVE AN EVANS.

EVANS HAS OVER 110 YARDS FROM THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE IN THE FIRST TWO QUARTERS OF THE GAME.

>> ABOUT 82 YARDS RUSHING OR SO.

NOT SURE WHAT THE LAST ONE WAS THERE.

THE BIG 23-YARD PASS PLAY OUT OF THE BACKFIELD.

AS WE TALKED ABOUT BEFORE.

RUSH PROPST WAS SAYING ONE THING HE DOESN'T HAVE ON THIS TEAM THAT HE HAS HAD THE LAST TWO YEARS WHEN THEY RAN THE TABLE BACK-TO-BACK STATE CHAMPIONS.

THEY DON'T HAVE THAT IMPACT TYPE PLAYER ON THE OFFENSE -- A PLAYER LIKE EVANS THAT ROSWELL HAS.

>> TIME NOW FOR THE THIRD QUARTER KICKOFF BROUGHT TO YOU BY HEADS UP GEORGIA.

DON'T TEXT AND DRIVE.

DISTRACTED DRIVERS TAKE LIVES.

FITZGERALD TO KICK OFF FROM THE 40.

>> WHAT DO YOU BET HE KICKS IT AWAY FROM McKINNEY.

>> ANGLE KICK.

THAT'S GOING TO BE TAKEN AT THE 21 YARD LINE.

AND STRAIGHT UP THE MIDDLE.

WHITE ON THE RETURN.

THAT'S WHERE THE HORNETS WILL PUT THE BALL IN PLAY FOR THE FIRST TIME HERE IN THE THIRD QUARTER.

>> THEY MADE SURE THAT McKINNEY -- McKINNEY WAS THE BACK GUY ON THE LEFT SIDE, FAR SIDE OF THE FIELD.

THEY KICKED IT SHORT TO THE NEAR SIDE OF THE FIELD.

SO THEY MADE SURE HE WASN'T GOING TO TOUCH THE BALL.

>> WILLIDS, 5 OF 10, 69 YARDS AND A COUPLE SCORING STRIKES.

LITTLE SHORT PASSES.

AND HIS GUYS DID THE REST.

COREY REED FIRST.

SHELDON EVANS THE SECOND TIME.

>> THAT'S EVANS.

EVANS GOES OVER 100 YARDS.

THAT BOLD RUN RIGHT THERE.

>> ONCE AGAIN, MATT.

THE 39 YARD LINE.

THAT MEANS HE GOT 30 YARDS AFTER THE FIRST CONTACT.

BIG GAPING HOLE FOR THE SENIOR.

BOOM.

HE'S HIT RIGHT HERE.

SPINS AWAY FROM TWO DEFENDERS.

THIRD GUY HITS HIM.

FOURTH, FIFTH, SIXTH GUY.

STILL MOVING.

13 YARDS AFTER INITIAL CONTACT.

>> 20 YARDS ON THAT CARRY.

THEY RUN THE SCREEN TO REED.

REED THREW IT OUT OF BOUNDS NEAR THE 6.

>> THOMAS KNOCKS HIM OUT OF BOUNDS ALONG WITH A COUPLE TEAMMATES.

SEE WHERE THEY SPOT IT.

THEY'LL SPOT IT AT THE 38.

AND THAT WILL BE A FIRST DOWN.

>> NOTICE RIGHT NOW, ROSWELL IS NOT HUDDLING.

GOING WITH A NO-HUDDLE, KEEPING THIS DEFENSE ON THE FIELD.

MIX IT UP.

RUN PLAY HERE BACK UP THE GUT AGAIN WITH EVANS.

>> NOPE.

HE IS A DECOY.

>> WILLIS.

STUTTER-STEP.

DOWN INSIDE THE 30 YARD LINE TO THE 27.

AND THE HORNETS GETTING BIG CHUNKS ON THIS PACKERS DEFENSE HERE TO START THE THIRD QUARTER.

11-YARD PICKUP.

>> I LIKE WHAT JOHN FORD HAS DRAWN UP.

THREE PLAYS, THREE DIFFERENT LOOKS AND THREE BIG GAINS FOR THE HORNETS ON OFFENSE.

ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY'RE ON THE MOVE INSIDE THE 30 OF COLQUITT.

>> ANOTHER FIRST AND TEN AT THE 27 YARD LINE.

COMPLETE TO COMMA.

HIS FIRST CATCH OF THE BALL GAME.

AND COMMA DOWN TO THE 17.

WORKING ON QUAN WALKER OVER HERE ON THE NEAR SIDE.

>> WE'VE TALKED -- WE'VE CALLED EVANS NUMBER SO MANY TIMES.

SHELDON EVANS, THE NUMBER ONE RUNNING BACK OUT OF THE BACKFIELD.

WE'VE ALMOST FORGOTTEN ABOUT JAYDEN COMMA AND WHAT A BIG PART OF THE OFFENSE HE'S BEEN.

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME HE'S REALLY MADE ANY SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTIONS.

SHOWS HOW MANY WEAPONS ROSWELL HAS.

>> EIGHTH CATCH OF THE SEASON FOR COMMA.

7 OF 77 AND A TOUCHDOWN FOR THE FIRST TWO GAMES COMBINED.

EVANS TO THE 13.

JJ PETERSON MAKING THE TACKLE.

THAT'S ANOTHER FIRST DOWN FOR THE HORNETS.

>> WELL, I JUST LOVE THE WAY THIS KID RUNS.

I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH.

THERE HE IS.

AGAIN, HE GETS HIT.

EVERY TIME HE GETS HIT, IT'S LIKE WALTER PAYTON.

HE GETS ANOTHER TWO OR THREE YARDS EVERY SINGLE TIME.

SO HARD TO BRING DOWN.

>> 144 IN OFFENSE FOR SHELDON EVANS TONIGHT.

>> MORE THAN HALF OF WHAT THEY HAVE AS A TEAM.

>> WILLIS KEEPS IT.

WILLIS.

OH!

>> DID HE GET IN?

TOUCHDOWN!

>> MALIK WILLIS TAKES IT IN FROM 13 YARDS OUT.

READ OPTION ON THAT SPEED SWEEP.

WILLIS TOOK IT TO THE NEAR SIDE AND RAN FOR THE PYLON.

>> A POWER RUN.

NICE SPEED.

PENALTY HERE.

GOOD CALL.

UNSPORTSMANLIKE.

>> IT WILL BE AGAINST ROSWELL.

LET'S SEE.

THEY'LL ASSESS IT ON THE KICKOFF, I BELIEVE.

>> YEAH.

>> EASY CALL.

>> THE REFEREE RIGHT THERE TO WITNESS THAT.

WILLIS.

BIG HIT HE MADE ON THE DEFENDER KNOCKED HIS HELMET OFF.

>> SECOND RUSHING TOUCHDOWN OF THE SEASON FOR WILLIS.

BARCKHOFF PUTS IT THROUGH.

IT'S 20-3.

>> TAKE A LOOK NOW AT THE TOUCHDOWN REPLAY, MATT.

IN THE SECOND QUARTER WILLIS HAD A TOUCHDOWN CALLED BACK BECAUSE OF A HOLD.

CHANGE OF DIRECTION.

WATCH THIS AT THE END.

BOOM!

HE KNOCKS HIS HELMET OFF.

THAT'S JAMARIUS WALKER, THE 5'10" SENIOR.

WILLIS, HEADED TO VIRGINIA TECH.

NICE MOVE RIGHT THERE.

THAT'S THE QUARTERBACK TAKING IT HELMET TO HELMET TO THE DEFENDER.

ONE MORE LOOK AT IT.

WILLIS IN THE OPEN FIELD.

DOESN'T DIVE.

GOES RIGHT AT THE DEFENDER.

WANTS TO TALK ABOUT IT.

THAT'S WHY WE HAVE THE PENALTY AT THE OTHER END.

>> THAT WAS LIKE THE GAME GROWING UP.

REMEMBER THE GAME WITH THE BOXERS?

>> EXACTLY.

>> PUNCHING AND THE HEAD POPS OFF.

>> ROCK 'EM, SOCK 'EM.

>> THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS LIKE.

HIS HELMET POPPED OFF JUST LIKE THE ROCK 'EM, SOCK 'EM ROBOTS.

TOOK ONLY 1:14 FOR THE HORNETS TO GO BACK UP BY TWO TOUCHDOWNS.

ACTUALLY MORE THAN THAT.

17 POINTS.

>> LOVE HIS ATHLETICISM.

CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM.

YOU KNOW, THAT JUST SHOWS ROSWELL, YOU COME OUT OF THE LOCKER ROOM WITH THAT KIND OF DRIVE.

EVERY PLAY EXACTLY THE WAY THEY WANTED TO RUN IT WITH A BIG GAME.

I'M NOT SURE THEY HAD ANY GAIN THAT WAS UNDER TEN YARDS.

BIG PLAYS.

>> BIG CHUNKS AGAINST THE PACKERS DEFENSE.

>> SIX DIFFERENT LOOKS.

THEY DID IT SIX DIFFERENT WAYS, ON EVERY PLAY.

>> DOWN THE SIDELINES.

AND JZ THOMAS.

ON THE RETURN.

LET'S SEE WHERE THEY SPOT IT OUT.

I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO SPOT IT AT THE ROSWELL 48.

>> FLAG ON THE PLAY?

>> BLOCK IN THE BACK AGAINST COLQUITT.

>> NEGATE THE NICE RUN.

>> COLQUITT COUNTY FLAGGED FOR THE BLOCK IN THE BACK.

AND THEY WILL MARK IT OFF FROM THE SPOT OF THE FOUL.

SO INSTEAD OF HAVING IT AT THE HORNETS' 48, THEY'LL HAVE IT AT THEIR OWN 33.

>> HERE IS WHAT THAT VERY QUICK TOUCHDOWN DRIVE DOES FOR ROSWELL, MATT.

NOW THE PRESSURE IS ON THIS COLQUITT OFFENSE.

IT'S STRUGGLED.

THEY MOVED THE BALL A LITTLE BIT BUT THEY'VE STRUGGLED TO MAKE BIG PLAYS AGAINST THIS STRONG SECONDARY.

>> REMEMBER, THIS IS THE PACKERS PROGRAM THAT LAST YEAR SET THE STATE RECORD FOR SCORING IN A SEASON.

THEY HAVE BEEN LIGHTING IT UP FOR THE LAST TWO OR THREE YEARS.

BUT NOT SO FAR HERE IN 2016.

THAT WAS POWELL ON THE CATCH.

>> IF YOU'RE JUST JOINING US.

THIS ROSWELL SECONDARY WITH THREE PLAYERS LOOKING TO PLAY IN THE POWER FIVE CONFERENCES IN DIVISION 1 COLLEGE NEXT YEAR.

>> SECOND DOWN AND FIVE.

THAT'S THE FRESHMAN, EDWARDS.

EDWARDS, SPOTTED DOWN AT THE 41 AS YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE PACKERS' SCHEDULE.

LOSS TO MILL CREEK.

FELL BEHIND EARLY BIG IN THAT GAME.

BATTLED BACK TO MAKE IT A CONTEST.

AMERICAN HERITAGE.

THEY MISSED THREE FIELD GOALS IN THAT GAME.

AGAINST TUCKER, THEY HAD A BIG LEAD.

17-3 AT HALFTIME AND GAME UP LOSERS.

I THINK, WHAT WAS IT, 21-3 AT HALFTIME AND THEY LOST 21-20?

THEY HAD A BIG LEAD AND LET IT GET AWAY.

>> I AM NOT SURE THAT THEY SCORED UNDER 27 POINTS IN ANY GAME IN ALL OF LAST YEAR.

>> THEY USUALLY HAD 27 POINTS AT A HALF, SOMETIMES THE FIRST QUARTER.

DIFFERENT STORY FOR THIS PACKERS TEAM RIGHT NOW.

>> MEANWHILE, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS COLQUITT TEAM, THAT WAS EDWARDS THERE ON THE PITCH, STOPPED FOR NO GAIN.

WE HAVE SEEN HIM A LOT.

HE IS ALMOST REALLY, NOT LEGGETT IN THE BACKFIELD BUT EVANS.

>> THEY DON'T HAVE CHASE PARRISH.

THEY DON'T HAVE POLLARD AND LEE AND OTHERS FROM THE SEASON BEFORE.

BALL HITS INSIDE THE 10 AND BOUNCES INTO THE END ZONE.

>> LIVE LOOK IN HERE.

MARIST AND ST. PIOUS IN THE BATTLE OF THE CATHOLIC SCHOOLS.

MARIST TAKES A LEAD ON THE GOLDEN LIONS.

THEY'RE NOW INTO THE FOURTH QUARTER.

MARIST WITH A 10-0 LEAD ON ST. PIOUS.

EARLY FOURTH QUARTER HERE IN ATLANTA.

FIRST AND 10 FOR THE HORNETS FROM THEIR OWN 20.

NOTHING DOING FOR EVANS THAT TIME.

TIRISE BARGE IN ON THAT TACKLE.

MARIST AND ST. PIUS, THEY RUN THE TRIPLE OPTION OFFENSE, OR A VERSION OF IT, SPREAD OPTION.

PLAYED THE FIRST HALF IN 1:05.

>> EVANS, JUST GASHING THE INTERIOR OF THAT PACKERS' DEFENSIVE LINE.

YOU KNOW, THE SIZE OF THE ROSWELL HORNETS' OFFENSIVE LINE, THE PHYSICALITY, THE EXPERIENCE OF THAT ROSWELL HORNETS' OFFENSIVE LINE SHOWING.

GRANT SILVER.

A KID THEY MOVED FROM THE DEFENSIVE LINE TO THE OFFENSIVE LINE THIS SEASON.

NUMBER 54.

LUCAS ADAMS, THE SENIOR CENTER.

JACK NICHOLS, NUMBER 75, THE RIGHT GUARD.

GOT AN OFFER FROM GARDNER-WEBB.

OFF THE HANDS OF EVANS THAT TIME.

A LITTLE BIT BEHIND HIM.

>> HE TRIED TO RUN WITH IT, SAW GREEN IN FRONT OF HIM.

GOT IN A HURRY.

>> MALIK WILLIS AND THE ROSWELL HORNETS WILL EXIT THE FIELD.

GOING THREE AND OUT ON THIS POSSESSION.

>> PACKERS COULD REALLY USE SOME KIND OF BIG SPECIAL TEAMS PLAY RIGHT NOW.

>> YEAH.

THEY GOT THEIR ONLY POINTS OFF THE STRIPPED FUMBLE INSIDE THE 5 OF ROSWELL.

ONLY MOVED THE BALL ONE YARD IN THREE PLAYS AND THEN GOT THE FIELD GOAL.

GOT TO DO SOMETHING.

>> TURNER BARCKHOFF HAS AN OFFER FROM PIKEVILLE.

FAIR CATCH CALLED BY TORY PONDER AT THE 39 YARD LINE.

SAW HIS MOM AND DAD BEING INTERVIEWED BY JACKIE THERE AT HALFTIME.

YEAH.

THEY'D ACTUALLY GONE UP TO THAT COLE'S SCHOLARSHIP CAMP IN WISCONSIN, THE KICKERS' CAMP IN WISCONSIN.

THAT'S WHERE THE TWO KICKERS DIED IN A CAR WRECK ON THE WAY HOME FROM THAT.

THE LSU KICKER WAS ALSO INJURED BUT SURVIVED THAT CRASH.

SO BALL AT THE 39 FOR THE PACKERS.

WE WILL SEE IF THEY CAN GET THEIR OFFENSE ON TRACK HERE.

>> AND REMEMBER, GUYS, WHAT THEY DID AT THE NEBRASKA GAME LAST WEEK TO REMEMBER SAM FOLDS.

IT WAS A COOL THING MIKE RILEY AND THE STAFF DID.

BASICALLY TAKING A DELAY OF GAME PENALTY BECAUSE, WHEN THEY PUT UP THE FIRST PUNT FORMATION, THEY DIDN'T HAVE A PUNTER.

>> YEAH.

HOW ABOUT THE OTHER TEAM, DECLINED THE PENALTY.

CLASS ON BOTH SIDES.

>> SAUNDERS HANDS OFF TO LEGGETT.

LEGGETT BURSTS THROUGH.

NEARLY GOES.

STONE GOT HIM BY THE FEET.

STOPPED HIM AT THE 48.

>> WE HADN'T CALLED HIS NUMBER SINCE REALLY THE FIRST QUARTER.

GREAT JOB THERE CALLING YOUR BLOCKERS AND A HURRY-UP OFFENSE FOR COLQUITT, TRYING TO GET SOMETHING GOING.

A LITTLE LIFE ON OFFENSE.

>> SECOND DOWN AND ONE.

LEGGETT AGAIN.

FIRST DOWN FOR LEGGETT.

DIROBERTO RIDES HIM TO THE GROUND.

>> LEGGETT ONLY A SOPHOMORE.

SO YOUNG.

>> AVERAGING SIX YARDS PER CARRY.

EDWARDS, THEIR STARTER, A FRESHMAN.

LEGGETT, THE NUMBER TWO, IS A SOPHOMORE.

NIGEL HILLIE, THE THIRD RUNNING BACK IN THE ROTATION, SUSPENDED THIS WEEK, DID NOT MAKE THE TRIP TO ROSWELL.

>> SAUNDERS, SPRINT OUT, THROWS.

INCOMPLETE.

AND A FLAG IS GOING TO COME OUT ON XAVIER McKINNEY.

GOT TANGLED UP WITH TY POWELL.

>> LOOKED LIKE POWELL TRIED TO TURN AROUND FOR THE BALL AND McKINNEY WAS IN HIS WAY.

LET'S GET ANOTHER LOOK AT THIS RIGHT HERE.

SAUNDERS WAITING FOR HIM.

THROWS IT UP.

>> YEAH.

>> BACK TURNED TO THE BALL.

AND CONTACT WHILE THE BALL WAS IN THE AIR.

>> YEAH.

>> THAT'S GOING TO GIVE A FIRST DOWN TO THE PACKERS.

>> ABOUT THE ONLY THING HE'S DONE WRONG TONIGHT.

>> A LITTLE MOMENTUM HERE.

FIRST DOWN.

BIG PENALTY HERE.

BUT CAN THEY FINISH?

THEY'VE MOVED THE BALL A LITTLE BIT BUT HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FINISH ANY OF HE THESE DRIVES.

>> FIRST AND TEN, BALL AT THE 33.

EDWARDS GETS THE HANDOFF.

DEEP PENETRATION.

DIROBERTO BLEW BY HIS MAN, THE RIGHT TACKLE.

BLEW UP THAT PLAY.

EDWARDS WAS LUCKY TO GET BACK TO THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE AND PICK UP A YARD.

>> TACKLE BY MITCH STONE TO CORRAL HIM BEFORE HE GOT UNTANGLED.

>> EDWARDS, 8 OF 24.

CAME IN AVERAGING FIVE YARDS A CARRY.

>> SAUNDERS GETS AWAY FROM TWO PASS RUSHERS BUT NOT THE THIRD.

OPEN-FIELD TACKLE MADE OUT THERE ON THE EDGE.

BY KOBY CUMBERLANDER, THE DEFENSIVE END.

SACK FOR HIM.

>> MATT, ALL THINGS CONSIDERED, THAT WASN'T TOO BAD.

ONE MORE LOOK AT THIS.

HE'LL HAVE RIGHT MARRIES ABOUT THIS PASS RUSH.

NICE ATHLETICISM THERE.

ABOUT THREE YARDS.

COULD HAVE BEEN A LOT WORSE.

>> THIRD AND SIX.

POWELL GETS THE FIRST DOWN.

McKINNEY WAS ABLE TO KEEP HIM FROM GETTING ANY MORE THAN THAT.

BUT THEY MOVE THE STICKS.

SO TY POWELL, HAVING HIMSELF A PRETTY BIG NIGHT.

>> GOOD ANSWER HERE FOR THE COLQUITT OFFENSE AGAIN.

RECEIVERS IN MOTION.

NOT STOPPING.

TRYING TO KEEP THE DEFENSIVE BACKS AT BAY.

>> FIRST AND TEN.

EDWARDS DANCING.

NEVER A GOOD SIGN.

WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO OPEN UP AND IT DOESN'T.

>> A LITTLE INEXPERIENCE.

WE TALKED ABOUT, AGAIN, HOW BIG RUSH PROPST IS ON THIS YOUNG MAN, JUST A FRESHMAN.

HIGH, HIGH PRAISE FOR HIM.

BUT HE IS A FRESHMAN.

STILL THINGS TO LEARN.

>> MAX BOYD MADE THAT TACKLE FOR THE HORNETS.

YOU LOOK AT THAT, JUST THE DEFENSIVE FRONT FOR ROSWELL.

ALL THREE OF THEIR STARTERS BACK ON THAT DEFENSIVE LINE, GOING WITH THE FOUR-MAN FRONT RIGHT HERE.

IN THEIR THREE-FOUR BASE, ALL THREE STARTERS -- THAT'S MORE THAN COLQUITT HAS IN THEIR ENTIRE STARTING 11.

FLAG DOWN.

HOPPER CHASING.

PASS COMPLETE TO SHENKER.

THEY RULE A TOUCHDOWN.

LOOKED LIKE HE WAS CLEARLY OUT OF BOUNDS WHEN HE CAUGHT THE BALL.

IT WON'T MATTER ANYWAY BECAUSE THE FLAG WILL LIKELY BE A HOLDING CALL AGAINST COLQUITT.

>> GUY COULDN'T HOLD HIS BLOCK WHEN HE TURNED AND WENT TO ROLL TO THE LEFT.

WE'LL SEE THE REPLAY.

PRETTY OBVIOUS HOLD.

IT WILL COME BACK.

NICE JOB BY THE LINE TO GIVE HIM TIME TO PASS THE BALL, BUT AGAIN, THAT SECONDARY, ALL THE RECEIVERS WERE LOCKED UP.

>> SO THAT ERASES A TOUCHDOWN.

>> HERE THE REPLAY.

WHEN YOU SEE THE REPLAY, IT WILL BE PRETTY OBVIOUS.

LOOK AT NUMBER 65 RIGHT HERE.

TYLER HOWARD.

RIGHT HERE ON THE SCREEN.

RIGHT HERE.

HE'S GOING TO TAKE HIM DOWN.

WITH HOWARD -- IT WASN'T HOWARD.

>> SAUNDERS BEING CHASED.

SAUNDERS GOING TO BE SACKED.

BACK AT THE 49 YARD LINE.

HOPPER, BROTHER OF TYRONE WHO IS NOW AT NORTH CAROLINA.

LITTLE BROTHER MAKING A NAME FOR HIMSELF AS WELL.

>> A GOOD SWARMING DEFENSE HERE.

WATCH THIS PENETRATION BY THE FRONT FOUR.

LOT OF GREEN SHIRTS.

THIS TIME HE CAN'T GET AWAY.

GOOD JOB HERE NOT TO TRY TO THROW THE BALL.

>> HOPPER IS AN ESPN THREE STAR.

THE NUMBER FIVE RATED TIGHT END IN THE JUNIOR CLASS.

BEEN OFFERED BY KENTUCKY, LOUISVILLE AND WAKE FOREST.

ELLIS GIVING CHASE.

SAUNDERS THROWS IT AWAY.

>> THAT COULD BE GROUNDING IF HE -- YEAH.

DIDN'T GET TO THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE, MATT.

THE BALL -- YOU CAN THROW IT AWAY BUT THE BALL HAS TO GET PAST THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE.

THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO CALL RIGHT HERE.

>> REMEMBER, THE GROUNDING PENALTY IS A LOSS OF DOWN PENALTY AS WELL.

>> YEAH.

IT ALL STARTED WITH A HOLDING CALL THAT NEGATED A TOUCHDOWN.

SO NOW THE BALL BACKED UP TO THE 40.

AND IT'S GOING TO BE FOURTH DOWN AND 48 YARDS TO GO.

>> LOOK AT THIS RIGHT THERE.

LOOK AT THIS.

[ LAUGHING ] >> THINK HE'S PUMPED UP BY THIS DEFENSE?

>> SO FOURTH AND ACTUALLY 52.

>> THIS IS RETURNABLE.

AND McKINNEY BACK TO THE 33.

THAT'S WHERE THE HORNETS WILL GO ON OFFENSE WHEN WE GET BACK.

IT'S BEEN ALL ROSWELL SO FAR TONIGHT.

20-3 HORNETS, IN THE REMATCH OF THE 2015 STATE TITLE GAME.

>>> WELCOME BACK.

KICKING IT AROUND THE STATE OF GEORGIA.

A LOT OF ACTION TONIGHT.

BLESSED TRINITY LAST WEEK WAS IN IRELAND.

SO IT'S A SHORT WEEK FOR THEM AFTER THE LOSS TO ST. PETER'S PREP.

THEY'RE LEADING BY 11 AS THEY'RE IN THE THIRD QUARTER.

ELSEWHERE AROUND THE STATE, PROBABLY THE BIGGEST SURPRISE ON THE BOARD RIGHT NOW IS CAMDEN COUNTY BEING THUMPED.

GLEN ACADEMY OVER CAMDEN.

VALDOSTA, 42-13 AGAINST TIFT.

ALSO DARLINGTON HAS COME FROM BEHIND DOWN 14-7.

BACK UPSTAIRS FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE THIRD.

>> NELLY.

RAY MANUS STADIUM IN ROSWELL, GEORGIA, THE HORNETS, NUMBER ONE RANKED TEAM IN 7-A IN THE GPB TOP TEN LEADING THE TWO-TIME DEFENDING STATE CHAMPION COLQUITT COUNTY PACKERS 20-3.

PACKERS TRYING TO AVOID AN 0-4 START TO THE SEASON.

AND THEY'VE GOT BROOKWOOD NEXT ON THE SCHEDULE IN MOULTRIE.

THE SCHEDULE JUST KEEPS GETTING TOUGHER.

UPDATE, NELLY, FOR YOU, USING MY HANDY, DANDY GPB APP, WHICH IS FREE, BY THE WAY, FOLKS.

GLEN ACADEMY, 49-7 LEAD ON CAMDEN COUNTY IN THE FOURTH QUARTER.

>> WOW.

>> KENTRELL BARBER ON THE CARRY.

BARBER SHOVED OUT OF BOUNDS BY SHAMBURGER AND DEBRUCE.

>> HAVEN'T CALLED HIS NUMBER YET TODAY.

I UNDERSTAND THAT THE BROOKWOOD STAFF IS HERE SCOUTING THE GAME TONIGHT.

>> I SAW SOME GUYS IN THE STANDS.

JOKED WITH ONE GUY AND SAID, HEY, YOU'RE IN THE WRONG PLACE, AREN'T YOU?

SHE JUST LAUGHED.

>> BROOKWOOD 2-1 ON THE SEASON.

GOOD START FOR THE BRONCOS.

SECOND DOWN AND NINE.

WILLIS.

OH!

OPEN-FIELD TACKLE BY TIRISE BARGE.

YOU MIGHT REMEMBER THE NAME BARGE.

HIS COUSIN BULL WAS A STANDOUT MIDDLE LINEBACKER FOR THIS PACKERS TEAM.

AND BULL BARGE NOW A LINEBACKER WITH SOUTH ALABAMA.

HELPED TO LEAD THE JAGUARS UPSET OF MISSISSIPPI STATE LAST SATURDAY ON THE OPENING WEEKEND OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL SEASON.

THERE IS TIRISE.

>> PLAYING FOR THE COWBOYS AS A TRUE FRESHMAN.

>> THIRD DOWN AND 13.

OH MY GOODNESS!

WHAT A HIT ON JAYDEN COMMA.

HOPEFULLY HE IS OKAY, AND HOPEFULLY KALEB DAWSON IS OKAY TOO.

DAWSON ADMINISTERED THE PUNISHMENT.

AND BOTH OF THEM SLOW TO GET UP.

BUT COMMA, THE SLOWEST.

HE IS STILL DOWN ON THE GROUND.

LOOKS LIKE HE MIGHT HAVE TAKEN THE HELMET RIGHT UNDERNEATH THE CHIN.

>> FLAG ON THE PLAY.

THEY MAY CALL TARGETING ON THIS.

I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE -- WATCH THIS, THOUGH.

ACROSS THE MIDDLE.

THIS IS WHY IT'S SO DANGEROUS.

NEVER SAW HIM COMING.

MIGHT HAVE BEEN -- DEFENSELESS RECEIVER?

THERE IS A FLAG DOWN.

>> THAT WAS NELSON LOUIS.

I THOUGHT IT WAS KALEB DAWSON.

IT WAS NELSON LOUIS.

A LINEMAN.

WHO MADE THAT HIT.

>> WAS SURPRISED TO SEE THE D-LINEMAN MAKING THE HIT IN THE PASS COVERAGE.

>> SOLID 270 AND THEN SOME.

>> MAN, HE PUT A LICKING ON JAYDEN COMMA, WHO HAS YET TO GET UP.

>> I BELIEVE WE HAVE A PENALTY ON THE PLAY AS WELL.

MAYBE A SUBSTITUTION PENALTY AGAINST COLQUITT, I THINK.

BUT THE FLAG ACTUALLY CAME OUT RIGHT AS THE HIT WAS BEING MADE.

SO IT WAS NOT IN RELATION TO THE HIT.

WE SAW ON THE REPLAY.

>> I THINK JOHN FORD IS DOWN THERE TRYING TO MAKE AN ARGUMENT FOR TARGETING.

YOU SAW HIM LOWER HIS HELMET AS IF TO ILLUSTRATE HE FELT LIKE NELSON LOUIS HAD LED WITH THE HELMET.

>> COMMA NOW SITTING UP, TRAINING STAFF WORKING WITH HIM.

>> AT LEAST A BIT WOOZY.

QUITE A HIT.

>> SO HOPEFULLY HE IS OKAY.

>> ROSWELL DOES NOT HAVE A GAME NEXT WEEK.

THEY DON'T PLAY AGAIN UNTIL THEY PLAY AT ARCHER IN TWO WEEKS AND THEN AT MILTON THE WEEK AFTER THAT.

>> THE PENALTY 12 MEN ON THE FIELD.

>> THE HORNETS HAVE IT AT THE 45.

>> ALMOST 2:30 TO GO IN THE THIRD QUARTER.

SUDDENLY THE CLOCK BEGINS TO BE AN ISSUE FOR THIS COLQUITT TEAM WHO CAN'T GET ANY OFFENSE.

THE LAST POSSESSION THE BEST IT'S BEEN IN THIS ENTIRE GAME.

YET TO FIND THE END ZONE.

>> HANDOFF TO EVANS.

AND EVANS.

DOWN TO THE 35.

>> HE IS FUN TO WATCH.

>> THAT WILL PUT EVANS AT RIGHT ABOUT 145 ON THE NIGHT.

HE HAS GONE OVER 100 IN EACH OF HIS FIRST THREE GAMES THIS SEASON.

AND THIS IS HIS HOT GAME FOR THIS SEASON.

22nd CARRY OF THE NIGHT FOR SHELDON EVANS.

>> WATCH THE REPLAY HERE.

COULD BE A LITTLE FACE MASK.

RIGHT THERE.

>> CAUGHT IT.

DIDN'T STAY WITH IT.

>> YEP.

>> JUST A PUNISHING BACK.

>> HE PUNISHES.

USUALLY -- TYPICALLY YOU THINK OF THE DEFENSIVE PLAYER PUNISHING THE OFFENSIVE PLAYER WITH THE HIT.

WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT SHELDON EVANS IT'S USUALLY THE OTHER WAY AROUND, THE OFFENSIVE PLAYER IS THE ONE PUNISHING THE DEFENSIVE PLAYER AT THE POINT OF CONTACT.

>> THE PENALTIES RACKING UP.

COLQUITT MAKING A MISTAKE.

SELF-DESTRUCTING ON THIS.

BACK-TO-BACK PENALTIES ON TOP OF THE BIG PLAY.

WATCH SHELDON EVANS.

I AM NOT SAYING HE IS WALTER PAYTON.

LATE, GREAT SWEETNESS.

WOULD PUNISH DEFENDING PLAYERS.

HE'LL GO AFTER YOU WITH A STIFF ARM OR LOWER SHOULDER AND GO RIGHT INTO YOUR CHEST.

JUST LIKE THIS.

UNTOUCHED.

>> 19-YARD TOUCHDOWN RUN FOR SHELDON EVANS.

HIS SECOND TOUCHDOWN OF THE NIGHT.

THE 51st TOUCHDOWN OF HIS CAREER.

HE CHOREOGRAPHED HIS CELEBRATION.

WHEN YOU HAVE SCORED 51 IN YOUR CAREER, YOU HAVE HAD PLENTY OF PRACTICE.

26-3.

>> THAT WILL BE ON INSTAGRAM HERE IN ABOUT TEN MINUTES.

WHAT A NIGHT FOR SHELDON EVANS.

>> WHAT A NIGHT FOR THE ROSWELL HORNETS.

>> BARCKHOFF POPS IT THROUGH.

27-3.

YOUR TCSG TOUCHDOWN REPLAY.

>> YEAH.

MAN OF THE HOUR, MAN OF THE NIGHT.

SHELDON EVANS.

HE HAS DONE IT ALL FOR THESE HORNETS.

ONE MORE LOOK AT IT.

INTO YOUR LIVING ROOM.

VIRTUALLY UNTOUCHED.

WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THE NUMBER OF YARDS HE HAS MANAGED TO RACK UP AFTER CONTACT.

LOOK WHAT HE DOES WHEN THERE IS NO CONTACT.

ONE GUY THERE AT THE LINE THAT MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN A MIDDLE FINGER ON HIM AS HE GOES THROUGH RIGHT THERE AND THAT'S IT.

SHELDON EVANS.

ON A NIGHT HE GOES OVER 4,000 RUSHING YARDS FOR HIS CAREER HAS SCORED AND SCORED AGAIN.

WHAT A THORN HE HAS BEEN IN THE SIDE OF THE PACKERS.

>> 23 CARRIES FOR 164 PLUS 26 YARDS RECEIVING.

190 YARDS OF OFFENSE FOR SHELDON EVANS TONIGHT.

A COUPLE OF SCORES.

AND SAID IT EARLY ON.

AND IT REMAINS APPARENT AS WE APPROACH THE FOURTH QUARTER HERE.

THE HORNETS HAVE SHELDON EVANS.

AND A BIG OFFENSIVE LINE TO BLOCK FOR HIM.

AND THE PACKERS DON'T HAVE THAT.

THEY DON'T HAVE THAT PIECE OF THE PUZZLE.

IN A GAME THAT COMES DOWN TO PHYSICALITY AND BEING ABLE TO PUT YOUR HAND TO THE GROUND AND BLOW OFF THE BALL AND HIT THE OTHER GUY IN THE MOUTH.

ROSWELL HAS WON THAT BATTLE TONIGHT.

>> LOOK AT THE KEY PLAYERS FOR ROSWELL.

MALIK WILLIS.

A SENIOR.

SHELDON EVANS A SENIOR.

THOMAS, A SENIOR.

JUSTICE HARRIS.

A SENIOR.

>> DARE I SAY IT, SHELDON EVANS, THE HORNETS, HE HAS STUNG THE PACKERS.

TIME AND TIME AGAIN TONIGHT.

MUST BE GETTING LATE.

>> THE KICKOFF WILL ROLL OUT OF BOUNDS.

THEY TRY TO KICK IT AWAY FROM JJ PETERSON.

A LIVE LOOK-IN AT ST. PIUS AND MARIST.

LOOKS LIKE THE WAR EAGLES WILL PULL OFF A 13-0 WIN OVER THE GOLDEN HAWKS.

MARIST.

GOING TO WIN THAT ONE.

HERE IT'S A 27-3 LEAD FOR ROSWELL.

>> JAY SAUNDERS, WONDER IF IN THE FOURTH QUARTER WE'LL SEE THE BACKUP QUARTERBACK, KRAJEWSKI.

>> HE HAS NOT THROWN A PASS YET THIS SEASON.

IT'S NOT SAUNDERS.

IT'S INEXPERIENCE ALL THE WAY AROUND.

THEY CAN'T GET A GROUND GAME GOING.

EARLY ON THEY COULDN'T GET A GROUND GAME GOING.

THEY DON'T HAVE THE DEEP THREATS THAT THEY HAD IN THE PAST.

>> NO.

>> THEY HAD POLLARD AND LEE, WHO WAS SO EXPLOSIVE.

YOU COULD THROW IT UNDERNEATH AND HE COULD TAKE IT THE DISTANCE.

RUN HIM ON A SPEED SWEEP.

THEY JUST DON'T HAVE THOSE KIND OF WEAPONS, AT LEAST NOT RIGHT NOW, UNLESS THESE GUYS DEVELOP INTO THAT.

SHERONSKY SLOAN CAN'T COME UP WITH THE PASS.

>> XAVIER McKINNEY COMING AT HIM.

FOUR-STAR DEFENSIVE BACK.

DROPPED THAT BALL.

LET ME SAY THIS.

I AM NOT SAYING BRING IN THE BACKUPS BECAUSE OF SAUNDERS' INEFFECTIVENESS.

IT'S NOT SO MUCH SAUNDERS.

IT'S, AS YOU SAID, THIS DEFENSE AGAINST COLQUITT BEING IN A REBUILDING PHASE FOR A YEAR OR MAYBE TWO YEARS.

THIS IS NOT THE PACKER TEAM THAT'S DOMINATED THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS.

MAYBE HE GIVES KRAJEWSKI A LOOK IN THE FOURTH QUARTER IF THINGS DON'T TURN AROUND FOR THEM.

>> NEARLY A PICK BY HOLIDAY.

>> WE NEED TO START TALKING ABOUT THE HORNETS DEFENSE TOO.

THEY'VE SURRENDERED ONLY TWO TOUCHDOWNS THIS SEASON.

ONE TO BUFORD AND A GWINNETT.

BEAT THEM LAST WEEK.

HERE TONIGHT THEY'VE NOT ALLOWED A TOUCHDOWN TO COLQUITT COUNTY.

PUT NELLY ON A LITTLE BIT OF A SCAVENGER HUNT THERE, NELLY.

WHEN IS THE LAST TIME COLQUITT COUNTY DIDN'T SCORE A TOUCHDOWN?

>> 10-4.

I AM ON IT.

>> THANK YOU.

>> BALL GETS BY McKINNEY.

AND ROLLS DOWN AT THE 3 YARD LINE.

SO McKINNEY, WITH AN UNCHARACTERISTIC MISTAKE.

LET THAT GET THROUGH THE WICKET AND HAD TO GET BACK IN COVERAGE.

THE HORNETS DEEP INSIDE THEIR OWN 5 YARD LINE WITH TWO MINUTES TO GO IN THE THIRD QUARTER.

>> HE TOOK HIS EYE OFF THE BALL, LOOKING UP TO SEE WHERE HE WAS GOING TO RUN.

>> THIS IS ONE OF THE THINGS, LARRY, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IN THE KOMATSU FORKLIFT KEYS TO THE GAME.

ONE OF THE THINGS JOHN FORD WANTED TO SEE FOR THE 45 MINUTES.

DIDN'T WANT TO SEE HIS TEAM RELAX WITH A BIG LEAD AND TAKE THEIR FOOT OFF THE PEDAL.

HE DIDN'T WANT TO SEE THEM START MAKING MISTAKES AS McKINNEY JUST MADE.

>> WE SAW McKINNEY WALKED BY JAYDEN COMMA.

TRAINING STAFF HILL WORKING ON HIM.

HOPEFULLY HE'LL BE OKAY AFTER THE TREMENDOUS HIT A FEW MOMENTS AGO.

>> EVANS PICKED UP ANOTHER EIGHT.

WILL EVANS GET TO 200 TONIGHT?

THAT'S THE BIG QUESTION.

WITH A WEEK OFF NEXT WEEK, I THINK WE MIGHT SEE HIM -- IT'S NOT LIKE THEY HAVE TO REST HIM FOR NEXT WEEK.

THEY MIGHT RUN HIM INTO DEEP THE FOURTH QUARTER EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE A BIG LEAD.

>> HE HAD 16 OR 17 CARRIES IN THE FIRST HALF ALONE.

HE WAS JUST GETTING STARTED.

HE LOOKED AS FRESH AS HE DID THE FIRST QUARTER.

>> 172 ON FOUR CARRIES.

>> SECOND DOWN AND TWO.

EVANS PICKS UP THE FIRST DOWN.

NELLY HAS FOUND OUR ANSWER.

>> YOUR HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT FOR ME.

>> YES.

>> I BELIEVE THAT DATES BACK TO SEPTEMBER 19th, 2008.

>> WOW.

>> A GAME IN THE CONCRETE PALACE WHERE THEY LOST 51-0.

WENT 4-6 THAT YEAR.

>> THAT WAS PROPST FIRST YEAR?

OR WAS THAT BEFORE PROPST?

>> THAT WAS PROPST'S FIRST YEAR.

>> FIRST YEAR.

>> COMPLETE.

BARBER.

>> FINALLY CORRALLED AT THE 29 YARD LINE BY DEBRUCE.

>> THOMAS IN ON THAT TACKLE.

UNDER A MINUTE TO PLAY HERE IN >> LOOK AT THIS AGAIN.

WE HAVEN'T HEARD FROM BARBER VERY MUCH.

HE IS A GOOD ATHLETE TOO.

CALLED HIS NUMBER A LOT LAST YEAR.

TITLE GAME LOSS TO COLQUITT COUNTY.

NICE ATHLETIC MOVE HERE.

FINALLY GETS STOPPED.

GOOD EFFORT TO GET THE FIRST DOWN FOR THE HORNETS.

>> EVANS.

HARD TO GET ON THE GROUND.

DEBRUCE AND MERRITT ON THE TACKLE THAT TIME.

ACTUALLY STOPPED AT THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE WITH 27 SECONDS.

AND A RUNNING CLOCK LEFT HERE IN THE THIRD QUARTER.

YOU KNOW, WE TALK ABOUT PROPST IN THE FIRST SEASON.

NELLY JUST GAVE US THAT INFORMATION ABOUT THE LAST TIME THEY DIDN'T SCORE A TOUCHDOWN IN A GAME.

THIS WAS HIS FIRST SEASON.

HE WENT 15-12 IN HIS FIRST 27 GAMES THERE AT COLQUITT COUNTY.

OF COURSE, HE'S GONE 71-16 SINCE.

>> WOW.

>> TOOK A LITTLE TIME TO BUILD THINGS THE WAY HE WANTED THEM.

>> THEY'RE REBUILDING THIS YEAR.

THEY ARE 12 MINUTES AWAY FROM BEING 0-4 ON THE SEASON.

AND THEY ARE DOWN 24 POINTS TO THE NUMBER ONE RANKED TEAM IN GEORGIA'S 7-A.

SHELDON EVANS.

AND THE ROSWELL HORNETS.

MALIK WILLIS.

RUNNING OVER THE PACKERS HERE TONIGHT.

IT IS 27-3.

AS WE HEAD TO THE FOURTH QUARTER IN ROSWELL.

>>> START OF THE FOURTH QUARTER.

ROSWELL IN FRONT OF COLQUITT COUNTY, 27-3.

HERE IS A LOOK AT THE DYNASTY THAT RUSH PROPST HAS CREATED.

HERE IN PACKER COUNTRY.

TWO-TIME DEFENDING STATE CHAMPIONS.

30-0 IN 2014 AND 2015.

SECOND STRAIGHT REGION 1 CHAMPIONSHIPS.

THEY'RE SIXTH OVERALL.

BEEN TO THE SEMIFINALS SEVEN STRAIGHT SEASONS.

82-22, THE LAST SIX SEASONS.

BUT -- THEY ARE ABOUT TO FALL TO 0-4 HERE IN 2016.

BARRING A HUGE COMEBACK HERE IN THE FOURTH QUARTER.

>> AND GUYS, THINK ABOUT RECLASSIFICATION HAS NOW DONE.

THE NEW REGION ONE 7-A.

IT'S ALMOST LIKE IT'S BEEN IN SINGLE-A.

EAGLES LANDING CHRISTIAN A COUPLE YEARS AGO STARTED OUT 0-6.

WON THE REGION AT 4-6.

MADE IT IN THE PLAYOFFS WITH A GOOD POWER RANKING AND A REGION CHAMPIONSHIP, MADE IT TO THE TITLE GAME AT 7-6 BEFORE LOSING.

SO THE SITUATION NOW IN 7-A, AS IT HAS BEEN IN THE PAST IN SINGLE-A.

HOW MUCH STOCK DO YOU PUT IN THE NON-REGION SCHEDULE CONSIDERING YOU ONLY HAVE THREE REGION GAMES?

>> RIGHT.

THEY GO TO A POWER RANKING LIKE THEY'VE DONE IN SINGLE-A TO SEED THE TEAMS FOR THE PLAYOFFS.

>> ALL THE TEAMS IN THE NEW 1-7-A MIGHT NOT BE IN THE PLAYOFFS BECAUSE OF THE POWER RANKING.

NORMALLY YOU WOULD HAVE THE TOP FOUR TEAMS GO AS ONE THROUGH FOUR SEEDS BECAUSE YOU HAVE ONLY FOUR TEAMS IN A REGION.

YOU GO TO MATT.

WHICH IS MATT STEWART'S SPECIALTY.

OR LARRY SMITH'S SPECIALTY.

>> TIFT COUNTY, CAMDEN, AND COLQUITT.

>> TIFT GETTING BEAT TONIGHT BY VALDOSTA.

6-A.

>> 42-13 IN THE FOURTH.

>> CAMDEN IS GETTING BEAT BY GLYNNE ACADEMY.

6-1.

>> CAMDEN AND COLQUITT WILL BE ON OUR AIR IN A FEW WEEKS.

>> I WAS NEVER GOOD AT MATH EXCEPT EATING THE PIE.

>> NOT SURE -- NOT SURE WHAT BROOKWOOD -- RATHER, PARDON ME -- NOT BROOKWOOD BUT LOUNS IS DOING TONIGHT.

>> THAT'S YOUR NEXT HOMEWORK.

>> READ THE INTENDED TARGET.

>> CAUGHT THAT TOUCHDOWN TO OPEN THE SCORING IN THE FIRST QUARTER.

ALMOST HAD ANOTHER BIG GAIN RIGHT THERE.

>> ESPN THREE-STAR WIDE RECEIVER.

HE IS COMMITTED TO LOUISVILLE AFTER TRANSFERRING FROM MAYES HIGH SCHOOL HERE IN THE ATLANTA AREA.

COACH JOHN FORD SAYS HE REMINDS HIM A LOT OF FORMER UL ALL ACC WIDE RECEIVER DaVONTE PARKER WHO IS NOW WITH THE DOLPHINS.

THIRD DOWN AND EIGHT.

BALL AT 42.

PUMP FAKE.

QUARTERBACK SACK.

THAT'S JJ PETERSON.

>> BOY, HE'S GOT THE WHEELS, DOESN'T HE?

HE DOES.

>> HE MADE THE SACK, SPUN AND HOPPED TO HIS FEET IN ONE MOVE.

SECOND SACK OF THE NIGHT FOR PETERSON.

>> FULL HEAD OF STEAM.

6'2", 215-POUND SENIOR LINEBACKER.

LOOK AT THAT.

TO YOUR POINT.

DOES A HANDSPRING?

ABOUT A NINE FOR THE DISMOUNT?

>> PRETTY INCREDIBLE.

>> NUMBER TWO RATED JUNIOR OUTSIDE LINEBACKER IN THE NATION BY ESPN.

>> OFFERS FROM GEORGIA, CLEMSON AND FLORIDA RIGHT NOW.

>> FIRST YEAR AS A STARTER.

HE IS JUST GETTING STARTED.

>> WE SEE THEM OCTOBER 14th HERE ON GPB.

I BET THE OFFERS WILL BE UP TO 13 OR 14.

>> YEAH.

>> FROM THE 20 YARD LINE.

PONDER ON THE RETURN.

>> SEE IF THE PACKERS CAN GET ANYTHING GOING ON OFFENSE.

>> TALKING ABOUT SOME OF THE MATH AND, AGAIN, THE NEW 7-A.

WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT ROSWELL BEING AGGRESSIVE ON OFFENSE.

THEY'RE UP RIGHT NOW BY 24 POINTS.

THEIR DEFENSE HAS COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN COLQUITT COUNTY.

YET THEY'RE STILL PASSING AND LOOKING FOR MORE.

WHAT COACH FORD SAID BEFORE THE DON'T BE SATISFIED.

KEEP PUSHING.

KEEP THE PEDAL TO THE METAL AND GET MORE POINTS.

>> NELLY, YOU'VE COMPLETED YOUR SECOND HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT OF THE EVENING.

>> 15-0, LOUNNESS OVER SHILOH.

>> BASED ON EARLY SEASON RESULTS, LOWNESS LOOKING LIKE THEY MAY BE THE TEAM TO BEAT IN THE REGION ONE RIGHT NOW.

>> LOWNESS AND VALDOSTA NOT IN THE SAME REGION OR CLASSIFICATION THIS YEAR.

THEY'VE GOT THEM SPLIT UP.

VALDOSTA OPENED THE SEASON WITH A HUGE 38-13 VICTORY OVER THE VIKINGS.

PLAYING THEIR RIVALRY GAME THE FIRST WEEK OF THE SEASON BECAUSE THEY'RE NO LONGER IN THE SAME CLASSIFICATION.

CAM SINGLETARY WITH THE CATCH AND RUN.

MOVES THE STICKS UP TO THE 42 YARD LINE.

>> COLQUITT HAS MOVED THE BALL.

THEY JUST HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FINISH.

GOT A CHANGE AND THEN A HURRY.

>> LEGGETT.

HOLIDAY GETS HIM ON THE GROUND AT THE 49.

>> FIRST AND TEN, BALL AT THE 48 YARD LINE.

>> NOT SURE THE FLAG WASN'T SET -- THE CHAIN.

LET'S DO A LIVE LOOK-IN BLESSED TRINITY AND CREEK VIEW.

GRIZZLIES TRAILING THE TITANS 24-12.

NOW IN THE FINAL 30 SECONDS OF THAT BALL GAME.

BLESSED TRINITY JUST PUT THAT GAME AWAY WITH A LONG TOUCHDOWN RUN A FEW MOMENTS AGO.

>> I THINK THE KIDS WERE AS FIRED UP ABOUT THE TRIP TO CREEK VIEW AS THEY WERE DUBLIN, IRELAND?

>> NOT QUITE!

A LITTLE DIFFERENT.

>> WAIT UNTIL WE SEE THIS KID IN TWO OR THREE YEARS.

EDWARDS.

ONLY A FRESHMAN.

>> RUSH PROPST SAYS THE FIRST FRESHMAN THAT HE CAN REMEMBER EVER PLAYING, STARTING AT THIS LEVEL, THE HIGHEST LEVEL IN HIS CAREER.

THAT INCLUDES HOOVER.

CHAD JACKSON, WHO WAS A STAR FOR HIM AT HOOVER AND THEN AT THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA, WENT ON TO PLAY WITH THE PATRIOTS.

DIDN'T EVEN PLAY AS A FRESHMAN.

PETERSON WAS THE GUY THEY SENT OUT THERE.

THEY COULDN'T CONNECT WITH HIM.

>> YEAH.

HE SAID HE REMINDS HIM OF NICK CHUBB.

THAT'S EXTREMELY HIGH PRAISE.

>> THIRD DOWN.

>> SAUNDERS COMES OVER HERE TO THE NEAR SIDE.

IT'S CAUGHT BY PONDER AT THE 35 YARD LINE FOR A FIRST DOWN.

>> A LIVE LOOK-IN THE WESLEYAN WOLVES WITH A 28-14 LEAD ON CHARTER WITH SIX MINUTES TO PLAY.

WOLVES WILL BE IN THE MIX BY THE END OF THE SEASON.

THEY USUALLY ARE.

>> SAUNDERS THROWING ON THE RUN.

OH, MAN!

OFF THE HANDS OF TY POWELL WHO WOULD HAVE HAD SIX HAD HE HELD ON TO IT.

>> SAUNDERS TRYING TO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN.

GETS AWAY FROM THE RUSH.

BUYS HIMSELF SOME TIME.

GOOD THROW ON THE RUN.

TOUGH THROW TO MAKE.

RIGHT ON THE MONEY.

THREADS THE NEEDLE.

PONDER, RIGHT ON HIS HANDS.

CAN'T COME UP WITH IT.

>> THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN TIPPED, AGAIN, RIGHT BEFORE IT GOT TO HIM AND REDIRECTED THE PASS JUST A LITTLE BIT.

>> YEAH.

YEAH.

>> STILL, YOU'VE GOT TO COME UP WITH THAT.

>> SO HARD TO GET ANYTHING GOING AGAINST THE SECONDARY OF ROSWELL.

>> SAUNDERS 16 OF 32 TONIGHT FOR 101.

HE HAD THROWN FOR 632 IN THE FIRST THREE GAMES.

>> A LOT OF UNDERNEATH STUFF BECAUSE IT'S JUST -- THE PASSES DOWNFIELD ARE NOT THERE.

COMPLETIONS ARE NOT THERE.

PENALTY MOVES COLQUITT BACK.

>> DIDN'T PRACTICE UNTIL WEDNESDAY MORNING.

WOULDN'T TELL US WHAT THE INJURY WAS, BUT WASN'T SURE HE WAS GOING TO BE ABLE TO GO.

>> WAS HURT IN THE TUCKER GAME, DID NOT PRACTICE ON MONDAY OR TUESDAY.

AS THE PASS IS COMPLETE TO CAM SINGLETARY.

AND RUSH PROPST SAID IT WAS JUST GOING TO BE A MATTER OF HOW WELL SAUNDERS WAS ABLE TO MANAGE THE PAIN.

I HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING IN HIS DELIVERY OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT THAT WOULD INDICATE ANYTHING THAT SLOWED HIM DOWN.

THAT'S A NICE PASS RIGHT THERE.

THE PREVIOUS WAS A NICE PASS.

THEIR TEAM IS JUST NOT IN SYNC.

THEY'RE JUST NOT THE OFFENSE THAT THEY HAVE BEEN.

>> IT'S A LONG SEASON.

YOU KNOW.

GOT A LOT OF GROUND TO MAKE UP.

IF THEY FALL TO 0-4 WHICH THEY ARE 6:39 AWAY FROM DOING.

INCOMPLETE.

LOOKING FOR PONDER.

>> CREDIT AS WELL TO THE ROSWELL DEFENSE.

GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE.

THIS SECONDARY HAS BEEN WHAT WE'D THOUGHT THEY WOULD BE.

>> IT WILL BE FOURTH DOWN.

THEY'LL GO FOR IT.

CHECKING IN WITH NELLY.

>> FINAL FROM THE COAST.

ACADEMY, 56, CAMDEN COUNTY, 7.

>> WHAT HAPPENED TO THE WILDCATS?

>> I THINK A LOT OF IT CAN START WITH THE TRANSFER OF BRANDON McMASTER, THE BIG RUNNING BACK, TO BRUNSWICK.

>> YEP.

>> SO FOURTH AND 13 COMING UP FOR COLQUITT COUNTY.

WE'LL TAKE A TIME-OUT HERE IN ROSWELL.

>>> 27-3 HERE AT ROSWELL.

LET'S GO LIVE AGAIN.

THIS TIME TO KINGS RIDGE ACADEMY.

AND WHITFIELD ACADEMY.

28-7.

KINGS RIDGE.

THAT BALL GAME IN THE FOURTH QUARTER.

SO KINGS RIDGE LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE WELL ON THEIR WAY TO PICKING UP THE VICTORY TONIGHT.

28-7 THE SCORE.

RIGHT NOW COURTESY OF THE NFHS NETWORK.

HERE IT'S FOURTH DOWN AND 13.

BALL ON THE 39 YARD LINE.

COLQUITT COUNTY OFFENSE HAS SPUTTERED.

SAUNDERS, ONLY EXCEPT OF 34.

116 YARDS PASSING ON THE NIGHT.

41 OF THOSE 116 HAVE COME IN THIS DRIVE.

NOW DOWN TO THEIR FINAL OUT HERE ON THIS DRIVE.

AND SAUNDERS JUST THROWS THE BALL INTO THE GROUND.

WE HAVE A PENALTY.

AND THE PENALTY -- THE PLAY WAS BLOWN DEAD.

THAT'S WHY HE DID THAT.

THE PENALTY IS ON COLQUITT COUNTY.

THAT WILL BACK THEM UP ANOTHER FIVE YARDS.

>> THAT'S PART OF IT.

COACH PROPST TALKED ABOUT THE INCONSISTENCIES AND THE INEXPERIENCE.

HOW MANY PENALTIES.

IN THAT LAST SCORING DRIVE THAT ROSWELL HAD, THERE WERE TWO KEY PENALTIES AGAINST COLQUITT THAT HELPED THEM OUT.

ONLY SEVEN SENIORS STARTING FOR THIS PACKERS TEAM.

FOURTH DOWN AND 18.

BALL AT THE 44.

SAUNDERS, DEFLECTED BY BRIDGEMAN.

BALL WILL GO OVER ON DOWNS.

POWELL THE INTENDED TARGET.

BRIDGEMAN STILL ACTIVE IN THE FOURTH QUARTER.

AS ACTIVE AS HE HAS BEEN ALL NIGHT.

ROSWELL TAKES OVER ON DOWNS.

>> FOURTH AND 18.

NEEDS A LOT OF YARDS.

TRYING TO GO DEEP.

HE HAS TO.

GOOD JOB AGAIN.

WE'VE SEEN SO MANY PLAYS MADE BY THE DEFENSIVE SECONDARY OF THE ROSWELL HORNETS.

GREAT JOB BY BRIDGEMAN.

ANOTHER UPPER CLASSMAN FOR ROSWELL.

THEY'RE LOADED WITH THEM THIS YEAR.

>> THAT'S THE FIRST TIME WE'VE SEEN SAUNDERS REACT IN ANY KIND OF PAIN.

I DON'T KNOW IF HE HIT HIS ARM OR SOMETHING ON THE FOLLOW-THROUGH.

LOOKS LIKE HE'S FAVORING HIS RIGHT ARM A LITTLE BIT.

IT'S HARD TO TELL.

I THOUGHT IT WAS HIS RIGHT ARM BUT MAYBE NOT.

>> EVANS.

COMES TO THE NEAR SIDE AND RUNS OUT OF BOUNDS AT THE 47 YARD LINE.

>> IMPRESSIVE EFFORT TONIGHT BY THE HORNETS.

>> EVANS NOW UP TO 183.

>> ONCE AGAIN, ANOTHER THREE, FOUR YARDS AFTER CONTACT.

YOU CAN'T JUST HIT HIM AND TAKE HIM DOWN.

YOU'VE GOT TO REALLY GRAB ON.

HE IS NOT GOING DOWN.

THOSE LEGS ARE GOING TO KEEP CHURNING, KEEP MOVING.

>> ANOTHER FIRST DOWN.

HE IS FOUR YARDS AWAY FROM THE 200-YARD MARK FOR THE GAME.

>> ANOTHER COLQUITT MISTAKE.

>> BRIAN MERRITT, THE NOSE MAN.

PULLED OFFSIDE.

>> THAT'S HIS SECOND ENCROACHMENT IN THIS HALF ALONE.

>> SO A 5-YARD MARKOFF AGAINST THE PACKERS.

CLOCK TICKS UNDER SIX MINUTES TO PLAY HERE IN THE BALL GAME.

BARBER GOES IN MOTION.

WILLIS WILL KEEP IT INSTEAD.

AND WILLIS, TACKLED AT THE 30 YARD LINE BY CAMARI LEWIS.

>> UH OH.

>> DON'T WANT TO SEE THAT.

PETERSON.

SHAKEN UP ON THE PLAY.

HE'LL COME OUT OF THE BALL GAME.

>> WHO KNOWS HOW HE'LL DEVELOP BY THE END OF THIS SEASON.

>> WILLIS KEEPS IT AGAIN.

DASHES TO THE OUTSIDE.

PICKS UP A FIRST DOWN.

DOWN TO THE 18.

AS SHAMBURGER MAKES THE TACKLE.

>> GOOD-LOOKING PLAYER.

>> IT'S A GOOD-LOOKING TEAM.

THIS ROSWELL TEAM CAME IN RANKED NUMBER ONE IS THE GPB.

7-A TOP TEN.

THEY'VE DONE NOTHING TO CHANGE OUR MINDS ABOUT THAT RANKING.

THIS WILL BE THEIR THIRD CONSECUTIVE IMPRESSIVE, BIG-TIME WIN.

EVANS, OVER 200 YARDS AND IN THE END ZONE FOR THE THIRD TIME TONIGHT.

>> THE EXCLAMATION POINT ON A BIG NIGHT.

FOR SHELDON EVANS AND THE HORNETS.

THEY'VE DONE LITTLE WRONG ON THIS NIGHT.

>> NOBODY PRANCES AFTER A TOUCHDOWN LIKE SHELDON EVANS.

HE ENJOYS EVERY SCORE.

>> 52 TOUCHDOWNS IN HIS CAREER.

>> LIKE I SAID EARLIER, HE HAS HAD A LOT OF PRACTICE.

>> YEAH.

>> BARCKHOFF PUTS IT THROUGH.

34-3.

ROSWELL HAS TURNED THIS 2015 STATE CHAMPIONSHIP REMATCH INTO A ROUT AS WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE TCSG TOUCHDOWN REPLAY.

EVANS FIND PAY DIRT FOR THE THIRD TIME TONIGHT.

>>> SHELDON EVANS IN THE END ZONE FOR A THIRD TIME TONIGHT.

AND NOW WITH A 34-3 LEAD ON COLQUITT COUNTY WITH JUST OVER FIVE MINUTES TO PLAY.

YOUR TCSG TOUCHDOWN DRIVE.

SIX PLAYS.

>> YEAH.

THAT WAS SIX PLAYS.

THE OTHER TWO SCORING DRIVES, 6 FOR 68.

SIX FOR 67.

WHAT CAN YOU SAY ABOUT SHELDON EVANS.

210 ON THE GROUND.

THAT WAS HIS 23-YARD TOUCHDOWN RECEPTION.

AND HE NOW HAS OVER 230 YARDS OF OFFENSE THIS EVENING.

>> DOWN HERE.

THIS IS THE BIG RUN.

AGAIN, THAT WAS THE RUN, 13 YARDS AFTER HE WAS FIRST HIT.

DONE THAT SO MANY TIMES TONIGHT.

HERE IS THE THIRD AND FINAL TOUCHDOWN FOR HIM.

TRIED TO ARM TACKLE HIM HIGH.

THAT'S NEVER GOING TO WORK.

YOUNG MAN IS TOO STRONG AND POWERFUL IN THE LOWER BODY.

LOOK THE NUMBERS.

>> 31 FOR 209 ON THE GROUND.

2 FOR 26 IN THE AIR.

235 TOTAL ON 33 TOUCHES AND THREE TOUCHDOWNS.

HAVE YOURSELF A NIGHT, YOUNG MAN.

>> THERE TAKING PICTURES, TALKING HIM UP.

TELLING HIM HE IS THE GREATEST.

WHATEVER HE NEEDS TO HEAR, HE'S RIGHT THERE ON HIM.

>> HIS ENTOURAGE.

>> HIS POSSE.

>> THEY GOT HIM ON THE BIG SCREEN HERE AT RAY MANUS STAPLED.

STADIUM.

>> WELL, WHO THOUGHT THAT, WITH FIVE MINUTES LEFT IN THE ROSWELL/COLQUITT COUNTY MATCHUP THEY WOULD BE POSING, SMILING.

>> I SURE DIDN'T.

>> HE'S A BEEN A WORK HORSE.

TELL YOU WHAT.

MOST BORING JOB IN METRO ATLANTA TONIGHT IS SHELDON EVANS BACKUP.

EVANS HAS DONE AND SAID IT ALL.

>> NON-RETURNABLE.

AND COLQUITT COUNTY WILL HEAD BACK OUT THERE AGAIN TO TRY TO SCORE AS WE CHECK IN WITH NELLY.

>> ALL RIGHT.

MORE HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS.

UPDATING GWINNETT COUNTY.

NORCROSS FIVE MINUTES TO GO.

>> APPRECIATE IT, JON.

34-3 ROSWELL HERE.

AS THE PACKERS, NEW QUARTERBACK.

STEPHEN KRAJEWSKI.

THE TRANSFER FROM MICHIGAN, GETTING HIS FIRST ACTION HERE TONIGHT.

SEE IF HE CAN DO ANY BETTER.

>> LIKE TO SEE HIM IN HERE.

GIVE HIM A FEW REPS.

SOME REAL ACTION.

SEE WHAT HE DID DO.

HE IS A JUNIOR.

>> GOOD SIZE.

6'4".

195.

HE IS A GOOD PROSPECT.

JUST HASN'T BEEN IN THE SYSTEM AS LONG AS SAUNDERS.

>> SECOND DOWN AND 10.

BALL AT THE 20 YARD LINE.

KRAJEWSKI COMES TO THIS SIDE.

COMPLETE TO PONDER.

FIRST DOWN.

PONDER RUNS IT UP TO THE 41.

BRIDGEMAN MAKES ANOTHER TACKLE.

>> PONDER, SEVEN CATCHES TONIGHT FOR 54 YARDS.

TO THE OUTSIDE.

POWELL WITH THE CATCH.

POWELL PICKED UP A COUPLE OF YARDS ON THE PLAY.

>> 4:30 TO PLAY.

WE'LL BE AT NORCROSS NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT.

ARCHER AT NORCROSS.

FOOTBALL FRIDAYS IN GEORGIA.

JOIN US AT 7:00.

IF YOU JUST GOT IN FROM A DINNER OR SOMETHING AND WANT TO CATCH THIS THING IN ITS ENTIRETY, THE WHOLE THING STARTS OVER AGAIN AT 11:00.

KRAJEWSKI GOES DOWN.

>> HIS KNEE WAS DOWN A COUPLE OF YARDS BEFORE.

THAT WAS A GOOD SPOT.

>> ROSWELL HAS LOOKED GOOD.

DEFENSE WILL TAKE YOU A LONG WAY THIS SEASON.

AS GOOD AS THERE IS.

>> BASICALLY THEY'VE THROWN A SHUTOUT AGAINST THE PACKERS.

IN THE END ZONE.

THE THREE POINTS THEY SURRENDERED IS AFTER THEY GAVE THE BALL UP AT THEIR OWN 5 YARD LINE.

>> CATCH BY PONDER.

>> GREAT CATCH.

McKINNEY ALL OVER HIM ON THAT.

>> THAT WILL MOVE THE STICKS.

>> ROSWELL, ABOUT TO GO 25-5 IN THE LAST 30 GAMES.

>> YEP.

3-0 HERE IN 2016.

INCOMPLETE.

SHENKER DOWNFIELD.

SO WAS SLOAN.

HORNETS OFF NEXT WEEK.

AT ARCHER AND AT MILTON TO FINISH OUT SEPTEMBER.

LASSITER.

AND THE REST OF THE GAMES AFTER THE LASSITER GAMES ALL REGION GAMES.

QUARTERBACK SACK.

JAJUAN WHITE.

>> MAX BOYD, NUMBER 34 TOO.

>> THIRD AND LONG FOR THE PACKERS HERE.

>> NEARLY INTERCEPTED BY LEANTHONY WILLIAMS.

A FLAG ON WILLIAMS.

HAD HIS HAND ON HIS BACK TRYING TO SWING AROUND AND GET IN FRONT OF POWELL ON THAT PLAY.

YOU CAN SEE THAT NH ON THE BACK OF THE ROSWELL HELMETS.

AND TRAGIC STORY HERE AS THE SCHOOL YEAR WAS GETTING READY TO START.

AND NATALIE HENDERSON, A STUDENT HERE AT ROSWELL, THAT'S WHAT THE NH STANDS FOR ON THE BACK OF THE ROSWELL HELMETS.

SHE WAS TRAGEDY, BRUTALLY MURDERED ALONG WITH HER BOYFRIEND, CARTER DAVIS, IN A CRIME THAT ROCKED THIS COMMUNITY, ROCKED THE HIGH SCHOOL.

YOU SEE THAT THE ROSWELL FOOTBALL TEAM DEDICATING THE SEASON TO HER MEMORY WITH NH ON THE BACK OF THEIR HELMETS.

>> DON'T TELL ME THESE KIDS DON'T HAVE A HEART.

>> NICE GESTURE.

>> RUSH PROPST, HIS TEAM NOW ABOUT TO GO 0-4.

BABY STEPS.

THAT'S WHAT HE SAID THEY HAD TO TAKE THIS SEASON.

A LOT OF YOUTH AND INEXPERIENCE THIS YEAR FOR THE TWO-TIME DEFENDING STATE CHAMPS.

>> AS NELLY TOLD YOU EARLIER, YOU HAVE TO GO BACK TO RUSH'S FIRST TIME IN '08 AS THE COACH.

KRAJEWSKI LOADS UP AND TRIES TO CONNECT WITH SINGLETARY.

>> I THINK OF POLLARD FROM LAST YEAR WHEN I SEE HIM.

ONLY IN NUMBER.

THEY ONLY RESEMBLE EACH OTHER IN THE NUMBER THAT THEY'RE WEARING ON THE BACK OF THEIR JERSEY.

SINGLETARY IS 5'6", 135.

AND POLLARD IS ABOUT TWICE THAT SIZE.

>> EXACTLY.

>> AND PLAYS FOR THE SOUTH CAROLINA GAMECOCKS.

SECOND DOWN AND 15.

KRAJEWSKI RUNNING FOR HIS LIFE.

QUARTERBACK SACK.

AND THE BALL FLIES OUT.

>> LAMON TITUS WITH THE QUARTERBACK SACK.

AND A GROUNDING CALL TOO.

>> TALKING ABOUT WHAT NELLY MENTIONED EARLIER ABOUT RUSH'S FIRST SEASON.

>> THIS WILL BE THE WORST LOSS FOR THE PACKERS SINCE THAT VERY FIRST GAME FOR RUSH PROPST IN MOULTRIE.

AT THE MOULTRIE SCHOOL, THEY ACTUALLY LOST TO LOWNESS THAT GAME.

BEATEN BADLY BY THE VIKINGS.

>> G.A.C.

PLAYING IN COLORADO TONIGHT ON A NATIONALLY TELEVISED GAME.

MILLS, THE QUARTERBACK WHO WAS INJURED IN THE PRESEASON, ONE OF THE TOP QUARTERBACKS IN THE COUNTRY, PLAYS FOR THE G.A.C.

SPARTANS, WAS THOUGHT TO BE OUT FOR THE SEASON BUT IS PLAYING TONIGHT.

>> WOW.

>> ON NATIONAL TELEVISION.

>> BIG.

>> IS IT STANFORD COMMIT?

>> HE HAS COMMITTED TO STANFORD.

>> FOR REASONS THAT HE DIDN'T -- >> THE GROUNDING, SO LOSS OF DOWN.

SECOND TIME IN THE HALF WE'VE SEEN THAT HAPPEN.

>> ROSWELL DEFENSE CHANGING THE QUARTERBACK AROUND.

FORCING THE GROUNDING PENALTY.

BRINGS UP FOURTH AND VERY LONG.

>> 12 PENALTIES ON THE PACKERS TONIGHT FOR 111 YARDS.

>> WOW!

>> SHENKER.

BOMBS IT.

INSIDE THE 5 AND INTO THE END ZONE.

>> WAIT A SECOND.

THEY'RE GOING TO SPOT THAT AT THE 5.

THEY'RE GOING TO SAY HE SAVED IT FROM GOING OUT OF BOUNDS?

>> PIERCE COUNTY GOING UP AGAINST RICHMOND HILL.

PIERCE COUNTY WITH THE BALL IN THE BLUE.

TRYING TO COME UP WITH A LATE FOURTH QUARTER RALLY AND SEND THIS GAME INTO OVERTIME.

SO THEY'RE GOING TO SPOT THE BALL AND SAY THAT THE PACKERS WERE ABLE TO DOWN IT BEFORE IT WENT INTO THE END ZONE.

SUPER EFFORT BY THE PACKERS' SPECIAL TEAMS ON THAT PLAY, ON THE PUNT COVERAGE TEAM.

SO THE BALL IS AT THE 5 YARD LINE WITH 2:11 TO PLAY.

>> JAJUAN WHITE.

THAT'S THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION EARLIER, LARRY.

THE MAYTAG REPAIRMAN IN THE ROSWELL BACKFIELD.

THAT'S AN OLD COMMERCIAL, MIGHT OUTDATE SOME OF OUR VIEWERS.

GETTING THE FIRST CARRY OF THE NIGHT TONIGHT OTHER THAN SHELDON EVANS.

>> COMMERCIALS FROM THE '70s AND '80s.

WE CAN JOKE ABOUT THAT.

>> JAJUAN WHITE.

NELLY?

YOU HAVE SCORES.

>> ARCHER LOSES 31-10.

CENTRAL KNOCKED OFF ALBANY.

THOMAS COUNTY CENTRAL.

QUARTERBACK 17 OF 21.

ALSO ON THE BOARD LEE COUNTY KNOCKED OFF AMERICA SUMPTER 36-1 TROJANS 3-0.

KING'S RIDGE BEAT WHITEFIELD.

YOU'D SHOWN A LITTLE BIT OF THAT GAME EARLY ON.

JOHNS CREEK KNOCKED OFF POPE.

MORE IN THE POSTGAME SHOW.

>> UNDER A MINUTE TO PLAY HERE AT ROSWELL.

>> WITH THAT FIRST DOWN CARRY THERE BY WHITE, DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THE PACKERS WILL GET IT BACK.

SO ROSWELL WILL BE 3-0.

VICTORIES OF 24-7 OVER BUFORD.

31-6 OVER CENTRAL GWINNETT AND 34-3 OVER COLQUITT COUNTY.

LARRY, SOUNDS LIKE THE NUMBER ONE RANKED TEAM IN 7-A TO ME.

>> NO QUESTION.

YOU TALK ABOUT, AGAIN, THE DEFENSE.

YOU MENTIONED IT.

THREE VERY DEFINITIVE WINS.

THIS DEFENSE IS OUTSTANDING.

THIS SECONDARY, WE HAVE SEEN IT BEFORE WITH OTHER TEAMS IN THE PAST.

IF YOU HAVE A STRONG, DOMINANT DEFENSE, BE IT THE FRONT FOUR, FRONT SEVEN OR STRONG CORE OF LINEBACKERS OR OUTSTANDING GROUP OF SAFETIES.

DEFENSIVE BACKS.

YOU CAN GO A LONG WAY.

THEY'RE ONLY GETTING BETTER.

>> THEY HAVE SHELDON EVANS ON OFFENSE, SO THEY CAN BEAT YOU TO DEATH IN THE RUNNING GAME.

THEY HAVE A DECENT ENOUGH PASSING GAME.

THOUGH WE DIDN'T SEE A LOT OF THAT TONIGHT.

THEY HAVE A DEFENSE THAT ALLOWED JUST TWO TOUCHDOWNS IN THE FIRST THREE GAMES.

NOT AGAINST CHOPPED LIVER.

BUFORD, CENTRAL GWINNETT AND NOW COLQUITT COUNTY.

34-3 THE FINAL.

>> WHAT A PROGRAM JOHN FORD HAS BUILT HERE.

JUST GETTING STARTED HERE IN 2016.

IT WILL BE FUN TO WATCH THIS TEAM DEVELOP THROUGHOUT THE SEASON.

>> HORNETS OFF NEXT WEEK.

THEY PLAY AT ARCHER TWO FRIDAY NIGHTS FROM NOW.

COLQUITT COUNTY NOW 0-4 ON THE SEASON.

SEEMS UNBELIEVABLE TO SAY THAT, BUT THAT'S THE CASE.

THEY'LL HOST BROOKWOOD NEXT FRIDAY NIGHT.

THEIR REGION 1-7-A OPENER WHEN THEY HOST CAMDEN COUNTY HERE ON GPB.

I'M MATT STEWART.

FOR LARRY SMITH.

NOW DOWN TO JON NELSON.

>> HERE WITH THE COACH.

IF I HAD TOLD YOU THAT THAT SCORE BEHIND US OR TO OUR RIGHT WOULD BE WHAT IT WAS BEFORE THE GAME HAD STARTED, WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE SAID?

>> I WOULD HAVE TOLD YOU YOU WERE CRAZY.

THEY'RE NOT A GREAT TEAM, THEY'RE A GREAT PROGRAM.

YOU DON'T WIN 30 IN A ROW IN GEORGIA IF YOU ARE NOT OUTSTANDING COACHES, OUTSTANDING PLAYERS AND AN OUTSTANDING PROGRAM.

HAT'S OFF TO COACH PROPST.

THEY ARE THE STANDARD AROUND HERE FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS.

WE HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO TO GET TO THAT LEVEL FOR SURE.

>> I KNOW YOU TAKE A LOT OF PRIDE IN THE RUNNING GAME AND THE GROUND AND POUND.

SHELDON OVER TWO SPINS BY THE TIME IT WAS OVER.

THAT SAYS A LOT ABOUT THE GUYS IN FRONT OF HIM CLEARING THE WAY.

>> THE GUYS ON THE LINE ARE ANONYMOUS.

THEY WORK THEIR TAIL OFF.

I'M SO PROUD OF THEM.

THEY DON'T GET THE HYPE OTHER GUYS GET BUT THEY'RE MOST DESERVING.

THEY ARE AN OUTSTANDING GROUP AND WE'RE REAL PROUD OF THEM.

>> AT THIS POINT OF THE SEASON.

ASSESS WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU ARE RIGHT NOW.

I KNOW YOU SAY YOU'VE GOT STUFF TO DO.

BUT WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU ARE RIGHT NOW?

>> WE'RE PLAYING GOOD DEFENSEMENT THAT'S THE FIRST THING.

I THINK WE'RE PRETTY GOOD IN THE KICKING GAME.

SOME THINGS TO CLEAN UP THERE.

WE CAN RUN PRETTY GOOD RIGHT NOW.

SOME THINGS WE STILL HAVE TO WORK ON.

IT'S A MARATHON, NOT A SPRINT.

THEY DON'T GIVE OUT TROPHIES IN SEPTEMBER OR OCTOBER.

WE HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO BUT WE'RE REAL HAPPY WITH THIS ONE TONIGHT.

>> THANK YOU.

CATCH YOU DOWN THE ROAD.

>> THANK YOU, JON.

YOU GUYS ARE FIRST CLASS.

>> POSTGAME SHOW OFFICIALLY STARTS RIGHT NOW.

>> WELCOME TO FOOTBALL FRIDAYS IN GEORGIA'S POSTGAME SHOW.

THESE TWO TEAMS, ROSWELL AND COLQUITT COUNTY, DIFFERENT RESULT TONIGHT.

34-3, ROSWELL ON TOP.

>> IT LOOKED REALLY GOOD.

HE DIDN'T MENTION THE GROUND GAME.

SHELDON EVANS WAS PRETTY MUCH THE GUY OF THE NIGHT.

GREAT GAME FOR THEM.

COMING UP WE'LL TALK ABOUT WHAT FANS ARE TALKING ABOUT ONLINE IN THE SOCIAL MEDIA WORLD AND JON NELSON WILL HAVE OUR KOMATSU FORKLIFT PLAYER OF THE GAME.

LOTS OF SCORES FROM AROUND THE STATE.

>> I LIKE WHAT COACH SAID ABOUT THE BIG GUYS UP FRONT ON THE OFFENSIVE LINE.

HE SAID THEY'RE ANONYMOUS.

>> THEY'RE MAKING IT EASIER FOR SHELDON EVANS FOR SURE.

>> LET'S CHECK OUT HIGHLIGHTS.

SHELDON EVANS WAS ONE OF THE BIG STARS OF TONIGHT'S GAME FOR ROSWELL CAME OUT OF THIS ONE QUICK.

IT'S MALIK WILLIS TO REED.

REED STREAKS DOWN THE SIDELINE TO MAKE IT 6-0.

ROSWELL UPPED THE ADVANTAGE TO 13-0 FOLLOWING ANOTHER SHELDON EVANS' TOUCHDOWN.

THEN COLQUITT COUNTY WITH A FIELD GOAL.

FITZGERALD.

GOOD FROM 20.

13-3 AT THE HALF.

NOW THIRD QUARTER.

MALIK WILLIS.

GREAT RUN.

HANDS IT OFF TO SHELDON EVANS.

RIGHT UP THE MIDDLE FOR THE TOUCHDOWN.

AND A LITTLE BIT LATER, THERE HE IS AGAIN.

GIVING IT UP THE MIDDLE.

TOUCHDOWN LAND.

MADE IT 27-3.

SHELDON EVANS GOES ON TO SCORE FOUR TOUCHDOWNS TODAY.

THE FINAL SCORE IS 34-3.

>> WHAT AN INCREDIBLE GAME.

I MEAN, REALLY, ROSWELL GOT TO HAND IT TO THEM.

DEFINITELY LOOK LIKE THE BEST TEAM IN 7-A.

>> THEY'RE RANKED NUMBER ONE.

>> TOO MANY As.

>> WE'RE GOING TO HEAD DOWN TO SOME NOT PLAYERS YET BUT WE'LL DO SOME SOCIAL MEDIA FIRST.

YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN CHIMING IN WITH US ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

WE'LL GET TO A FEW OF THE TWEETS WE'VE HAD SO FAR.

YOU CAN BE PART OF THE CONVERSATION GPB SPORTS.

@GPBSPORTS ON TWITTER.

KICKER HAS HELPED TO RAISE AWARENESS FOR CHILDHOOD CANCER.

TURNER HAS RAISED OVER HALF HIS GOAL WHICH IS OVER $2,000 TO RAISE AWARENESS AND SUPPORT FOR CHILDHOOD CANCER.

IF YOU WANT TO BE PART OF THAT THIS IS THE WEBSITE TO DO THAT.

ALSO, JUST, A LOT OF TWEETS ALL NIGHT LONG.

WE HAVE PLENTY MORE FROM OTHER FANS WHO HAVE BEEN CHIMING IN WITH US ALL NIGHT LONG.

FIRST WE'RE GOING TO HEAD DOWN TO JON NELSON WHO IS WITH THE PLAYER OF THE GAME.

OUR KOMATSU FORKLIFT PLAYER OF THE CAME AS A MATTER OF FACT.

JON, WHO HAVE YOU GOT?

I CAN ONLY GUESS.

>> WE WERE TALKING ABOUT COACH FORD.

IT'S THE FIVE GUYS CLEARING THE WAY TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU GET WHERE YOU ARE.

>> YES, SIR.

>> IF I HAD TOLD YOU -- JORDAN -- JORDAN, YOU'RE LIKE 6'1" LAST TIME I CHECKED.

ANYWAY.

FOR THESE GUYS TO CLEAR THE HOLES FOR YOU, TO SEE THAT SCORE ON THE SCORE BOARD, HOW SCHOOL IS IT TO SEE THE EFFORT TURN OUT THE WAY IT DID?

>> WE'VE BEEN WORKING ALL WEEK.

JUST PREPARING FOR THEM.

THEY SAID WE WERE GOING TO LOSE, BUT WE CAME OUT WITH A WIN.

I'M PROUD OF MY BOYS.

>> WHAT WAS IT LIKE AFTER LAST YEAR, THE LAST GAME OF THE YEAR.

WE WON'T MENTION WHAT HAPPENED BECAUSE WE KNOW WHAT WENT DOWN.

WHAT WAS THE MIND-SET AFTER GAME 15 LAST YEAR TO GET YOU TO THIS POINT.

>> WE CAME INTO THE OFFSEASON, WORKING, PRACTICING, GOING THROUGH THE FUNDAMENTALS AND DOING THE LITTLE THINGS.

LITTLE THINGS THAT MATTER.

WORKING HARD IN THE SUMMER AND COMING PREPARED.

WE GOT A GOOD RECORD GOING ON.

WE TRYING TO FINISH IT OFF.

>> WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE TO DEVELOP FROM HERE AS A SQUAD?

I KNOW YOU WANT TO WIN THE LAST GAME OF THE YEAR.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO BETWEEN NOW AND THEN?

>> WE'RE DOING EVERYTHING.

JUST THE SMALL PIECES.

THE LITTLE THINGS.

IF WE JUST -- I THINK WE'LL BE GOOD.

WE CAN GO BACK 15.

>> ALICIA CATS, THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE THE P.O.G., KOMATSU FORKLIFT PLAYER OF THE GAME.

THERE YOU GO.

>> YEAH.

>> WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO DO IT WITHOUT MY BOYS.

>> FIRST TIME EVER.

PUT IT IN THE HISTORY BOOKS.

FIRST TIME EVER, KOMATSU FORKLIFT PLAYER OF THE GAME.

BACK TO THE SET.

>> THANK YOU, JON.

SPEAKING OF SHELDON EVANS, HE IS OUR PLAYER OF THE NIGHT TONIGHT FOR SURE.

LET'S GO TO THE PLAY OF THE GAME.

THIS ONE CAME EARLY.

ROSWELL TOOK HOLD OF THIS BALL GAME AND WERE IN CONTROL THE ENTIRE NIGHT.

THE PLAY OF THE GAME WAS IN THE SECOND QUARTER.

SHELDON EVANS, A PASS HERE FROM MALIK WILLIS.

AND OFF HE GOES.

NOBODY TOUCHES HIM UNTIL HE GETS RIGHT THERE.

FIGHTS INTO THE END ZONE.

HIS 50th CAREER TOUCHDOWN PASS.

HE WENT OVER 4,000 YARDS FOR HIS CAREER TONIGHT.

A PHENOMENAL PLAYER.

PHENOMENAL PLAY RIGHT THERE.

FIGHTING INTO THE END ZONE RIGHT THERE TO SEAL IT 13-0 IN THE SECOND QUARTER.

THIS IS A PHENOMENAL KID.

>> THE NICE THING ABOUT SHELDEN WILLIAMS, ATHLETIC DIRECTOR OF ROSWELL TOLD ME HE IS THE HARDEST WORKER OF THE BUNCH.

HITTING THE WEIGHTS CONSTANTLY.

THAT MAKES HIM A GREAT TEAM LEADER BECAUSE HE IS A GREAT EXAMPLE.

>> ALSO MAKES HIM A BRUISING RUNNING BACK.

>> LOOK AT A GEORGIA'S EMZ SCORE BOARD.

FOLLOWING TEN GAMES AROUND THE STATE.

VALDOSTA AND TIFT COUNTY.

VALDOSTA WINS.

UNDEFEATED ON THE SEASON 42-13.

SHILOH, 37-0.

MILL CREEK, RANKED NUMBER TWO IN CLASS 7-A.

UNDEFEATED BEATS ARCHER.

McEACHERN 69-0 OVER JONESBORO.

NORCROSS OVER NORTH GWINNETT.

31-24.

VETERAN LOSING 48-27.

I IMAGINE JAKE BROM HAS A TON OF YARDS PASSING.

WARNER ROBBINS OVER LANIER.

CARTERSVILLE REMAINS UNBEATEN.

THOMPSON OVER PACE ACADEMY, 38-10.

AND WARE COUNTY THE GATORS GET GRADY.

>> WELCOME IN JON NELSON.

HE HAS BEEN FOLLOWING HIGHLIGHTS AND SCORES FROM ALL OVER THE STATE.

>> JAKE BROM IS BLOWING MY MIND.

HE'LL BE TOP OF THE ARMS RACE ALL SEASON LONG.

FIVE TOUCHDOWNS TONIGHT?

>> BREAK THE FOURTH WALL HERE AND PUT THE ARMS RACE GRAPHIC UP TO SHOW HE WASN'T THE TOP OF THE LADDER.

WE CAN DO THE MATH AND FIGURE OUT THE UP TO DATE STATS.

HE WAS 17 OF 21 WITH OVER 500 YARDS IN ALL OF THE SCORES THAT HE HAD IN THE GAME AGAINST VETERANS TONIGHT.

THOSE ARE THE TWO SQUADS PLAYING AT FREEDOM FIELD, USING THAT AT THEIR HOME STADIUM.

TREVOR LAWRENCE, KNOCKED OFF WEST LAKE.

A 3-A SCHOOL KNOCKING OFF A 5-A SCHOOL.

GLYNNE ACADEMY DROPPING IT.

A LOT OF THE QUARTERBACKS.

WE WERE SHOWING STETSON FOUR UP AGAINST RICHMOND HILL.

THE YEAR OF THE QUARTERBACK.

I THINK, NOW THAT WE'RE IN GAME THREE AND GAME FOUR, GUYS, YOU ARE SEEING THE QUARTERBACKS THAT WE HAVE ON THIS LIST, THEY'RE THERE FOR A REASON.

TIFT COUNTY HAS A GOOD QUARTERBACK PUTTING UP BIG NUMBERS.

A LOT OF THE QUARTERBACKS ARE COMING TO THE FORE THIS YEAR.

A LOT OF BIG NUMBERS PUT UP BY A LOT OF QUALITY GUYS.

>> A LOT OF GUYS WHO CAN RUN TOO.

A LOT OF THE GUYS THAT YOU MENTIONED WHO CAN DO SOME SERIOUS WORK ON THE GROUND AS WELL.

>> THAT'S WHAT YOU HAVE, THE DUAL-THREAT QUARTERBACKS.

I KNOW THAT WE FOCUS ON JUST THE PASSING NUMBERS AND THEN WE HAVE TO MENTION THE RUSHING NUMBERS.

ONCE AGAIN, IT TELLS YOU HOW GOOD THEY ARE WHEN IT COMES TO THEIR ABILITIES.

I THINK NEXT YEAR, AS WE PLAN, IT WILL BE THE YEAR OF THE RUNNING BACK BECAUSE WE HAVE ALL THE GOOD RUNNING BACKS COMING NEXT YEAR IN THE STATE.

WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE STATE OF GEORGIA YOU'RE TALKING PROBABLY -- WE HAD TEN.

HOW MANY DID YOU DO IN YOUR OPENING?

>> I THINK TEN OR 11.

>> YOU ADD PROBABLY ANOTHER FIVE OR SIX THAT WE KNEW ABOUT THAT WERE JUST OUTSIDE JACKIE'S TOP TEN.

YOU'RE LOOKING AT PROBABLY CLOSE TO 15 TO 20 QUARTERBACKS GETTING TREMENDOUS LOOKS, TREMENDOUS NUMBERS, PUTTING THEIR TEAMS IN POSITIONS TO WIN WHEN THEY GET INTO REGION PLAY WITH ALL THE NON-REGION GAMES.

>> DAVIS MILLS PLAYED TONIGHT FOR ATLANTA CHRISTIAN.

HE WAS SUPPOSEDLY OUT FOR THE SEASON.

HE IS BACK PLAYING THREE WEEKS AFTER SURGERY.

>> WE HAD TIM HARDY ON INSIDE EDITION TALKING ABOUT HOW THEY WERE LUCKY THAT THE INJURY WAS NOT AS SEVERE AS INITIALLY THOUGHT.

PLAYING TONIGHT AGAINST VALID CHRISTIAN.

THAT'S BIG.

ESPECIALLY WITH THE NATIONAL STAGE.

IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT THE PLAY CALLING HAS BEEN FOR HIM AND IF IT'S JUST SAFE STUFF TO GET HIM ACCLIMATED AND BACK INTO THE SWING OF THINGS OR IF THEY'RE GETTING HIM CHALLENGED OUT OF THE BLOCKS TO SEE WHAT THEY'RE DOING TONIGHT IN COLORADO.

>> REMARKABLE.

A LITTLE BREAK FROM FOOTBALL TO TAKE A CHANCE TO WELCOME IN DAVID ZELLSKY.

OUR COLLEAGUE HERE AT GEORGIA PUBLIC BROADCASTING KNOWN FOR DOING THE GEORGIA TRAVELERS SHOW.

YOU GUYS DON'T GET TO SEE DAVID AS MUCH IN THE OFFSEASON.

BUT I DID.

WE TOURED THE GREAT STATE OF GEORGIA FOR A SHOW CALLED LET'S DISH WHICH WILL BE AIRING ON THE 29th.

WE GOT TO EAT A LOT OF FOOD WHICH WAS AWESOME.

>> WE GOT NONE.

>> ASIDE FROM THAT, YOU HAVE BEEN TO A LOT OF PLACES IN GEORGIA.

NOT JUST RESTAURANTS BUT EVERYWHERE, YOU KNOW, EDDIE'S ATTIC IS AN INTERESTING ONE.

TELL ME A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCE WHEN YOU WENT THERE.

>> TO TELL YOU SOMETHING, THEY DO HAVE FOOD THERE.

IT'S ACTUALLY PRETTY GOOD FOOD.

DECATUR IS A SCHOOL SPOT.

A MIX OF BERKELEY MEETS MAYBERRY.

>> THAT'S WHERE WE THAT BACON, RIGHT?

>> YEAH.

WE HAD THE BACON THERE.

YOU KIND OF STOLE THE BACON.

>> I DID.

SORRY ABOUT THAT.

I AM A BACON LOVER.

>> LET ME GO BACK TO EDDIE'S ATTIC.

FANTASTIC PLACE.

ROBIN MEADE WAS SINGING THAT NIGHT.

SHE DOES THE "MORNING EXPRESS."

SHE WAS SINGING THAT NIGHT.

MIKE SMITH.

WAS THERE.

IT'S A GREAT PLACE TO SEE MUSIC FOR MANY YEARS HERE IN GEORGIA.

THE HITS KEEP COMING THERE.

CHECK THIS OUT.

!

!musiC@!!!musiC@!

>> IT MAY BE ATLANTA'S MOST UNASSUMING VENUE FOR A MUSICAL POWERHOUSE.

LOCATED IN TRENDY DOWNTOWN DECATUR, AN AREA SOMETIMES DESCRIBED AS A MIX BETWEEN MAYBERRY AND BERKELEY, SITS THE ONE AND ONLY EDDIE'S ATTIC.

!

!musiC@!!!musiC@!

!musiC@!!!musiC@!

>> THE FOUNDER OF THE VENUE PRETTY MUCH DID EVERYTHING JUST REALLY FOR THE LOVE OF THE MUSIC.

FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND BACK IN THE DAY HE JUST WANTED SONGWRITERS, MUSIC TO COME THROUGH HERE.

HE LITERALLY CREATED SOMETHING FROM THE GROUND UP.

I THINK WHAT MADE IT WHAT IT IS TODAY IS THE BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS OF 25 YEARS.

AND NOW YOU HAVE, YOU KNOW, SEGMENTS OF HISTORY.

SO YOU HAVE LIKE, YOU KNOW, THE JOHN MAYER, THE CHRISTIAN BROOKS.

ZACH BROWN AND PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN ON THE STAGE.

YOU HAVE THE JUSTIN BIEBERS WHO HAVE ALSO BEEN ON THE STAGE.

JOHN USED TO WORK THE DOOR AND TOOK YOUR TICKET STUBS.

>> SINGER SONG WRITERS LIKE JOHN MAYER AND JENNIFER NETTLES OF THE BAND SUGARLAND GIVE CREDIT TO EDDIE'S ATTIC TO HELP LAUNCH THEIR CAREER.

SHE AND HER HUSBAND OWNED THE VENUE FROM 2002 TO 2005.

!

!musiC@!!!musiC@!

!

!musiC@!

PLENTY OF ROOM AT THE HOTEL CALIFORNIA !

!musiC@!

!

!musiC@!!!musiC@!

!

!musiC@!!!musiC@!

>> THAT'S THE MUSIC OF SIX WIRE, A TIGHT BAND I CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A REHEARSAL.

THEY ARE A SOLID NASHVILLE-BASED BAND WHO HAS BEEN ON THE BRINK OF STARDOM FOR YEARS WITH MULTIPLE NETWORK TV APPEARANCES.

TONIGHT THEY'RE PLAYING WITH A SPECIAL GUEST YOU MAY RECOGNIZE FROM THE MORNING NEWS.

!

!musiC@!!!musiC@!

!

!musiC@!!!musiC@!

>> I SAW HER HAVE AN INTERVIEW WITH PIERS MORGAN ONE TIME.

I DON'T KNOW IF I WAS BROWSING YOUTUBE OR IT WAS LIVE.

>> WAS HE BEING NICE TO HER?

>> HE WAS.

HE LET HER SING LIVE FOR A LITTLE BIT.

IN THIS SMALL SEGMENT.

I WAS LIKE, WHAT THE HELL.

I'M GOING TO HIT HER UP AND SEE WHAT SHE WANTS TO DO.

ROBIN JUST TAKES TOTAL CONTROL.

SO THE MOMENT I SAID, HEY, DO YOU WANT TO PLAY EDDIE'S ATTIC?

THAT'S ALL I HAD TO DO.

TICKET SALES YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT.

!

!musiC@!!!musiC@!

>> YOU COME IN SPENDING YOUR HARD-EARNED MONEY AND GAMBLING ON SOMETHING, ON A NIGHT, THE MORE PEOPLE WHO DO THAT, THE MAR ARTISTS THAT WILL BREAK AND GO ON HAVING A LIVING DOING WHAT THEY LOVE.

SUPPORT THE FANS AND PUT THE HEARTS ON THEIR SLEEVES.

THEN YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO BACK AND SAY, WELL, I'M PAYING $60 TO SEE THEM IN PHILIPS ARENA OR $70 TO SEE THEM AT THE FOX THEATER.

YOU CAN SAY YOU SAW THEM AT EDDIE'S ATTIC FOR $5.

>> THAT'S THE COOLEST THING ABOUT IT.

I LOVE IT.

>> EDDIE'S HAS A BACK PORCH TO HANG OUT WITH YOUR BUDDIES BEFORE AND AFTER THE SHOW.

THERE IS A SOLID KITCHEN THAT DELIVERS MORE THAN I WAS EXPECTING.

HOWEVER, IT'S THE SMALL, INTIMATE VENUE THAT SEEMS TO WORK FOR BOTH THE ARTISTS AND THE FANS THAT HAS MADE THIS MUSIC VENUE A METRO ATLANTA FAVORITE AND WILL KEEP MUSIC LOVERS COMING UP THE STAIRS TO THE ATTIC FOR YEARS TO COME.

!

!musiC@!!!musiC@!

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] >> SHE IS ABOUT THIS BIG.

THAT BOOMING VOICE COMES OUT.

>> RIGHT.

I AM A LITTLE JEALOUS.

I WENT ON ALL THESE ADVENTURES WITH YOU AND YOU DIDN'T ONCE INVITE ME TO A PLACE WHERE I COULD SING.

>> THERE MIGHT BE A REASON FOR THAT.

>> YOU DON'T GET TO SING.

>> THAT WAS AWESOME.

LOOKED LIKE A LOT OF FUN.

>> IT WAS.

YOU HAVE TO GO.

LISTEN TO GOOD MUSIC.

EAT A LITTLE FOOD AND ENJOY YOURSELF.

GREAT PLACE.

BEEN AROUND FOR A WHILE.

>> YOU WANT TO SING US TO BREAK?

WHERE IS THE CARRIE UNDERWOOD.

>> I'M OKAY.

>> SHE DOES IT ON THE PODCAST BUT NOT HERE.

>> COMING UP, MORE SCORES FROM AROUND THE STATE AND WE'LL CHECK IN WITH ALL OF YOU ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

>> THAT WILL BE IT FOR THE NIGHT.

A LITTLE BIT OF SOCIAL MEDIA AND THAT WILL BE IT.

>>> WELCOME BACK TO GPB'S FOOTBALL FRIDAY IN GEORGIA POSTGAME SHOW.

NOT QUITE TIME TO TURN OUT THE LIGHTS HERE AT ROSWELL HIGH SCHOOL.

THE HORNETS HAD A BIG WIN OVER THE PACKERS.

>> WE'VE HAD A CHANCE TO FOLLOW UP WITH YOU GUYS ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

WE'VE HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE CHIMING IN FROM MOULTRIE, GEORGIA.

LET'S GET TO A FEW OF THE TWEETS.

SHAUN LEE CHIMING IN GO, PACK, WISH I WAS THERE.

FIRST GAME I HAVE MISSED IN FOUR YEARS.

MAYBE YOU WERE THE GOOD LUCK CHARM WE WERE MISSING.

NICOLE CHIMING IN FROM WASHINGTON STATE SUPPORTING HER FRIENDS HERE AT GPB.

AND WE'VE GOT LARRY, A YOUNG PACKER FAN WATCHING THE PACKERS PLAY.

HE IS NOT HAPPY ABOUT THE FLAG.

A LITTLE SMILE ON THERE.

HE'S GOT A GOOD SEAT RIGHT THERE.

LAURIE CHIMING IN, WATCHING FROM -- WATCHING ALL OF US AT GPB HERE.

AND RENE SAYING THANK YOU TO GPB FOR HONORING THE MEMORY OF 9/11 AND THE GEORGIA VETS IN YOUR PROGRAM.

THAT IS IT FOR SOCIAL MEDIA.

THANKS, GUYS, FOR CHIMING IN.

IT WAS A LOT OF FUN TO TALK TO YOU GUYS.

A LITTLE BIT OF TRASH TALKING GOING ON.

HEARD FROM THE FANS IN MOULTRIE, GEORGIA.

>> JON, YOU HAVE THE SCORES?

>> I ALSO WANT TO TALK ABOUT -- >> COLQUITT COUNTY BEING 0-4.

AND THE WAY THINGS HAVE GONE WITH RECLASSIFICATION AND SUCH.

I KNOW THAT EVERYONE IS LOOKING AT THE NUMBER TO THE RIGHT OF THE DASH.

IT'S A LOT BIGGER THAN THE NUMBER TO THE LEFT OF THE DASH.

BECAUSE OF RECLASSIFICATION, THERE ARE A LOT OF TEAMS WITH VERY SMALL REGIONS.

I'LL GO BACK TO THE EXAMPLE OF EAGLES LANDING CHRISTIAN A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO IN SINGLE-A.

THEY STARTED 0-6.

BECAUSE OF THE REGION THEY WERE IN, THEY RAN THE REGION 4-0 AND WENT IN AS A REGION CHAMP AS 4-6.

RAN THE TABLE IN THE PLAYOFFS.

AND EVENTUALLY LOST TO MOUNT PAIRING CHRISTIAN.

WHEN YOU HAVE TEAMS WITH A LOT OF LOSSES BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE NON-REGION SCHEDULES HAVE BEEN FIGURED OUT AND ALL THE CHANGES AND DOING EVERYTHING ON THE FLY AND TV GAMES AND THINGS WHERE YOU'RE PLAYING GUYS OUT OF STATE.

THIS SETS YOU UP FOR REGION PLAY.

SEASON ONE SETS YOU UP FOR SEASON TWO.

BACK TO WHAT WAYNE GRANDEE OF THE MOULTRIE OBSERVER SAID IN HIS COLUMN THIS WEEK.

IT'S NOT TIME TO PANIC.

IT'S TIME TO RIGHT THE SHIP.

PLENTY OF TIME TO DO THAT.

YOU'RE IN A FOUR-TEAM REGION.

IF YOU GO IN AS A REGION CHAMP, YOU ARE A TOP EIGHT SEED.

>> THEY LOST TO MILL CREEK BY SEVEN POINTS.

BY THREE POINTS TO A VERY GOOD TEAM OUT OF FLORIDA AND BY ONE POINT TO TUCKER.

TONIGHT, ROSWELL IS A BETTER TEAM.

THEY'RE RANKED NUMBER ONE.

THEY PROVED THEY'RE GOOD IN EVERY FACET OF THE GAME.

OFFENSE, DEFENSE, SPECIAL TEAMS.

THERE IS NO -- NOTHING WRONG WITH GOING 0-4 WITH THE SCHEDULE THEY PLAY.

>> THEY'RE DIFFERENT THAN THEY WERE LAST YEAR CLEARLY.

>> YES.

>> IT'S NOT ALL ON JAY SAUNDERS.

HE HAS A LOT OF INEXPERIENCE AROUND HIM.

OFFENSE LIVE.

>> SPECIAL TEAMS, TOP TO BOTTOM.

>> TWO, WHAT'S FRUSTRATING ABOUT THE RECLASSIFICATION, YOU CAN LOSE HOW MANY, SIX STRAIGHT AND STILL HAVE A CHANCE TO GO TO THE DOME?

>> TECHNICALLY I THINK IN 7-A IN REGION ONE YOU COULD BE 0-7 IN THEORY.

YOU COULD BE 0-7 WIN THE REGION AT 3-7 AND BECAUSE OF THE POWER RANKINGS, YOU COULD BE A REGION CHAMP AND BE IN AS A TOP 8 SEED GOING INTO THE SEEDINGS WHEN IT COMES TO 7-A.

>> IT DOESN'T TAKE ANY TARNISH OFF WHAT THEY'VE DONE.

30 WINS IN A ROW.

TWO STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS BACK-TO-BACK.

RUSH PROPST HAS A GREAT FRESHMAN AND SOPHOMORE CLASS.

JUST NEEDS A LITTLE TIME TO GET THE GUYS BACK UP AND RUNNING.

>> HE TOLD US HE'S GOOD UNTIL 2022.

GETTING EVERYTHING ADJUSTED.

THIS IS A VERY YOUNG TEAM.

NEXT YEAR I THINK HE SAID HE'LL ONLY HAVE SEVEN SENIORS NEXT YEAR THAT WOULD BE IN ACTIVE POSITIONS ON THE ROSTER IN THE DEPTH CHART, ONE, TWO AND THREE.

IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE HOW THE TEAM EVOLVES IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS GOING INTO REGION PLAY.

FOR THE FOLKS IN MOULTRIE, IT'S A GROWING CURVE.

WHEN YOU ARE LOOKING AT THINGS 0-4, EVERYTHING JUST GROWING.

>> NEWS QUICKLY.

VALOR CHRISTIAN AND GREATER ATLANTIC IN COLORADO 6-0.

G.A.C.

AT THE END OF THE FIRST QUARTER.

NEWS OUT OF NORTHWEST GEORGIA, LUKE GRIFFIN, THE SOPHOMORE COMMIT TO THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA OUT OF NORTH MURRAY, BIT OF A SITUATION TONIGHT IN THE GAME HE WAS IN WITH HERITAGE RING GOLD.

HE HAD TO BE IMMOBILIZED.

THE GAME WAS SUSPENDED FOR A LITTLE WHILE TO GET HIM IN AN AMBULANCE.

OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS TO EVERYBODY UP THERE.

THE GUY THEY CALL THE LITTLE FREAK AT NORTH MURRAY IS BEING LOOKED AT BECAUSE OF AN INJURY ON THE FIELD.

>>> FINAL SCORES FROM THE GEORGIA'S EMC SCORE BOARD.

WE HAVE SOME GOOD ONES TO TALK ABOUT.

VALDOSTA UNDEFEATED BEATING TIFT COUNTY.

LOWNESS ROLLS OVER SHILOH 37-0.

MILL CREEK UNBEATEN TAKES OUT ARCHER 31-10.

DON'T FORGET, YOU CAN WATCH IT ALL OVER AGAIN.

>> NEXT WEEK WE HAVE A TERRIFIC MATCHUP AS THE NORCROSS BLUE DEVILS TAKE ON ARCHER.

AND SO LONG, EVERYBODY.
