Week 5 GHSA Playoff Projections: 7A's top is stacked — six teams at a flat 100% and twelve at 99% or better. Region 7 owns three of the top eight seeds, and Regions 1, 3 and 5 each send five teams while Region 8 sends potentially just one (Buford). Rockdale County (+32.0) and Etowah (+28.7) played their way into the field alongside Hillgrove.

No. 1 in Tennessee. No. 1 in Kentucky. Sold out in Louisville. @BaylorSchoolFB arrives 3-0, having played teams from three states in three weeks. Trinity answers as the defending KY 6A champion. Two of the country's best private-school programs, both unbeaten, both ranked nationally, on the same field tonight. 7:00 ET at Marshall Stadium. Tennessee or Kentucky? We will be tracking & tweeting advanced insights all game

🚨 #1 vs #6 IN THE NATION 🚨 @STA_Football hosts @ColumbusFtball Friday and this is as good as high school football gets. Columbus isn't here by accident — the Explorers just knocked off the nation's PREVIOUS #1 team, Bishop Gorman, 33-28, behind a takeover game from 5-star Miami commit A'mir Sears. Now they roll into Fort Lauderdale to see if the Raiders can hold the top spot. 👀 📍 STA Stadium, Fort Lauderdale ⏰ Fri Sep 4 · 7:00 PM ET Something's gotta give. 🔥🏈

GHSA Week 3 Playoff Projections: 4A saw the most turnover of any mid-sized class. Five new teams in the projected field: @WSide_Athletics , @HarlemFootball , @SEB_Football, @raiderpriderhs and @McDonoughFB . McDonough (+28.4) and Riverdale (+27.4) led the charge up the board. Region 2 is loaded with SEVEN teams in. And @SCHSPatriots looks simply untouchable early on, 100% to qualify and 90.7% to win Region 4.

GHSA Week 3 Playoff Projections: 5A's biggest riser is also its newest region favorite. @RecruitMLKLions jumped +39.8 and now projects to win Region 4. @SWD_FB (+30.0) and @robinsfootball1 (+25.4) are climbing too. Regions 1 and 5 lead the way with five in apiece, and MLK, @LGHSFootball and @OlaFBRecruits are all new to the 32. @MaristRecruits stays on top at 99.8%.

GHSA Week 3 Playoff Projections: 6A is the most balanced board in the state. Regions 2, 6 and 8 each send five teams. @SC_FB_Recruits (+35.7), @WoodstockFtball (+35.5) and @hchsraiders_FB (+34.5) all surged this week. New to the field: Woodstock, Habersham Central, @ChambleeFB and @WGWarriorFB. Eight teams are stacked between 50% and 70%. Nothing about this bracket is settled.

GHSA Week 3 Playoff Projections: 7A reshuffled in a hurry! @etowahfootball (+43.3) and @WestForsythFB (+38.3) were the biggest climbers in the class, and West Forsyth now projects to win Region 6. Region 3 is the deepest pool with seven teams in. Four new faces: West Forsyth, Etowah, @BrookSquadFB , @KMHS_FootballGa. The cut line is CLOSE, Kennesaw Mountain 62.0% to Dacula's 61.9%.

Let's go Trojans! Incredibly proud to work with this elite staff and couldn't be happier for them and their MASSIVE win tonight!

Tonight it's the best-of-the-best of Illinois vs. South Florida. East St. Louis is built for the postseason — with five straight title game appearances, No. 1 in Illinois and No. 24 nationally. Tonight they play in August, in Broward County, in the heat. American Heritage is built for exactly that. Back-to-back Florida champions, playing on their home turf. Two football cultures. One field. 7:00 ET. Does Midwest football travel south? We will be tracking & tweeting advanced insights all game

🚨 UNDER THE LIGHTS 🚨 #7 @Mooney_FB hosts #9 @CNHS_Athletics in a top-10 Florida clash that's about statement-making, not just win-loss columns. Defending 2A champs. Defending 1A champs. One field. 📍 John Heath Field, Sarasota ⏰ 7:00 PM ET 🤳Follow @COVRZRO for live analysis & updates Who's walking out with the statement W? 👀🏈

Thursday night. Two games. Under the Lights. @SierraCanyonFB vs. @Nadeboyz Two states, two styles. SC crosses the country to play in South Florida — West Coast size and scheme against Florida speed, with national bragging rights on the line. @WARRIORNATION20 vs. @CCHSfootbal Both walk in off statement wins. Thompson over Central-Phenix City and Clay-Chalkville went to GA and knocked off Creekside. Clay-Chalkville has taken the last 3 meetings, can Thompson flip the script? Follow @COVRZRO for in-depth coverage of these heavyweight matchups

GHSA 3A Playoff Projections: Week 2 In 3A, getting in is only half the battle. Toombs County stands alone at 100%, but the real fight is for the top 16 and the Friday night home crowds that come with them — this field is stacked deep at every seed line.

GHSA 4A Playoff Projections: Week 1 Different story from 5A. The top settled early — three locks at ~100% — but the cut line is razor thin, with little daylight between the last spots in the field and the teams chasing them.

GHSA 5A Playoff Projections: Week 1 Incredibly tight at the top in 5A, and the distribution goes all the way down into the teens for realistic title contenders. Second round playoff games are guaranteed to be showstoppers no matter what the final outcome is here.

GHSA 6A Playoff Projections: Week 1 Good time to remember that likelihood of playoffs is NOT the same as a power ranking! However, when PSR is also your standard for seeding teams, it does make for interesting matchups.
