Short Take
Crisp County is our pick for region champion. Much like last season, we believe that this should be a run-away for Crisp. Expect for Monroe and Cook to battle it out for the number two spot.
Short Take
This region looks like it will come down to the Liberty County vs. Pierce County match-up at the end of the season on November 2nd. Appling County should be much improved, but they are probably a year away from challenging Liberty or Pierce.
Short Take
Benedictine moves up in classification this season, but we still believe that they will claim the top spot in region 3. Southeast Bulloch and Jenkins should battle for the second seed. We just think Benedictine is too strong, even with the losses that they suffered from last season.
Short Take
Perhaps our most unconventional pick in Class 3A, we like Westside Macon to shake things up in region 4 and replace Peach County at the top of the region. We think that the November 2nd match-up between Peach and Westside will determine the region champ.
Short Take
We believe that once again, it will be Cedar Grove atop the region, and everyone else will be playing for second place. It should be a three horse race for the remaining playoff spots behind Cedar Grove, with Lovett, Pace and Westminster battling it out.
Short Take
Calhoun won the class 3A state title last season, so it should be no surprise that the Jackets top our list of Region 6 teams. North Murray should contend along with Adairsville and Ringgold. But we don’t think any of these teams will be in reach of Calhoun in 2018.
Short Take
Greater Atlanta Christian looks to be the class of region 7. They sport an imposing offensive and defensive line. Dawson County should head up the best of the rest. The Tigers could have the best shot at knocking of GAC, but we just don’t think that will happen this season.
Short Take
The Jefferson Dragons drop down in classification, and like Benedictine, we expect for them to be at the top of the region when the dust settles. It won’t be a run away, as Morgan County and Monroe Area should have plenty of talent to compete with the Dragons.
