Friday Game Night

Three games in Northeast Georgia highlighted the post-Thanksgiving quarterfinal action Friday night.

Lagrange won their third road game of the playoffs behind their dominant running game Friday night, knocking off North Hall at The Brickyard, 49-17.

As rough as the first round of the playoffs was for Northeast Georgia area teams, the second round made up for it.

It’s been 25 years since North Gwinnett and Buford have met on the football field.

North Hall’s biggest test of the season is slowing down LaGrange running back Malachi Fannin-Render.

The Friday Game Night crew's quarterfinal picks are in.

Cherokee Bluff and Jefferson will play for the second time this season on Friday at Memorial Stadium.

The Lanier Christian Academy football team rallied to a 14-13 and beat Cherokee Christian in the GAPPS State Championship game last week at Johnson High.

Buford, Cherokee Bluff, Jefferson and North Hall all advanced to the quarterfinals in their respective classifications, setting up some marquee matchups in the second round.

Second-ranked Buford beat No. 8 Lowndes the same way the Wolves have beaten teams for the last two decades – with their tough running game and physical defense.
