Here's some quick perspective on Friday

The Gainesville-Hall County Fellowship of Christian Athletes has released the rosters for the Inaugural FCA East/West Classic.

While defending state champions Buford (Class AAA) and Gainesville (Class AAAAA) continue their methodical march toward another state finals appearance, North Gwinnett is just one win from its first state title shot since 2007.

Last season, the Gainesville offense was one of the most feared units in all of Georgia high school football. The Elephants, behind Class AAAAA Player of the Year Deshaun Watson, averaged 45.3 ppg while scoring a school-record 680 points on the way to the Class AAAAA state title. The current unit already has scored 641 points in 13 games (49.3 ppg) and shows no signs of slowing down.
