Here is our Georgia High School Football Poll for each classification in the state. We have are quickly approaching mid-season, so we should start to get a better idea of where teams stand in relations to each other.
In Class 7A, Norcross makes their first appearance in the Top-10 as they look to be experiencing a resurgence this season. Milton dropped to 10 after a loss to Class 3A No. 1, Cedar Grove. There was little movement in Class 6A. Westlake drops a few spots after falling to Hillgrove (Class 7A).
The Ola Mustangs and the Cass Colonels make their first appearance in the history of our polls in Class 5A. The Mustangs are in at No. 8 while Cass is No. 10. Can both teams sustain their newfound success? Meanwhile in Class 4A, the Islands Sharks are ranked No. 10 after a big win over Jenkins.
Down in Class 3A, Westminster makes their debut after back to back victories over ranked opponents. Cedar Grove is back atop the 3A poll after a win over 7A Milton. In Class 2A, The Early County Bobcats are in the poll at No. 10 this week.
Class A-Public has almost been unpredictable this season. Both Macon County and Gordon-Lee crack the poll at No. 7 and No. 10 respectively. Of note in Class A-Public, Irwin County, (the defending Class A Public State Champs), beat Class 7A Tift County.
Finally in Class A-Private, Prince Avenue Christian avenged last year’s loss to Wesleyan and jumps to the No. 2 spot this week. There were no new entrants into the poll, but it really looks like the Top-4 in this class are starting to separate themselves from the pack.
As always, thank you for reading. We welcome any and all poll feedback.
