Predictions: Camden, Colquitt to advance past Coweta teams

Cobb County teams went 2-2 against Region 1-AAAAAA in the first round of the playoffs last week. Now Coweta County gets a turn, but it’s unlikely to fare as well against the south Georgia powers. Look for Camden County and Colquitt County to get past East Coweta and Newnan to reach the quarterfinals, where they’ll be joined by Grayson, Lovejoy, Mill Creek, Norcross, North Cobb and West Forsyth. And expect M.L. King, Tucker and East Paulding to win the Region 5 vs. Region 6 battles in Class AAAAA.

Congratulations go out to Joel Norris of Lawrenceville, who was last week’s winner in the High School Football Pickoff contest. Norris was the only contestant to correctly pick the winner in 13 of 15 games. Click here to sign up and participate in this week’s contest.
