   Power Rankings, Unbeaten Starts, and the Grind of Region Play

   Region play is heating up across Georgia as Jon and Hannah catch up with North Gwinnett head coach Eric Godfree, Lee County head coach Dean Fabrizio, and Macon County head coach Sheddrick Risper. They talk undefeated starts, brutal schedules, the new GHSA power rankings, and the players making an impact as the high school football season reaches its midpoint. Plus, we highlight more big performances from around the state and celebrate GPB’s 30th season of high school football coverage with a special message from former Marist quarterback and Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay.
