WEEK 5 FOOTBALL RANKINGS

South Forsyth earns spot in AAAAAAA poll

In Class AAAAAAA, South Forsyth defeated South Gwinnett 39-20 to debut at No. 9 in this week's poll. North Gwinnett remains No. 8 despite a 38-24 loss to No. 5 Norcross due to its 42-24 over Hillgrove, which defeated No. 9 South Forsyth 27-14 to open the season.

Eight undefeated teams strengthen the Class AAAAAA top 10, with one-loss Tucker and Glynn Academy coming in at No. 8 and No. 10, respectively. Arabia Mountain made its debut in the Class AAAAA rankings at No. 8 and is 4-0 on the year. Bainbridge dropped out of the poll after its 0-2 start.

In Class AAAA, Marist returned to the poll at No. 8 after a 13-0 win over rival St. Pius on Friday.

Even with a loss to Valor Christian, Colo. 21-17 on the road, Greater Atlanta Christian rises to the No. 1 spot in Class AAA after Pace Academy falls to No. 3 following a 38-10 loss against Thomson. Stanford-commit Davis Mills made his season debut under center for the Spartans after a preseason injury was thought to keep him sidelined for at least another month. Elsewhere in the poll, No. 10 Pierce County clings onto a top ten spot after a 24-17 loss to Richmond Hill. Central-Macon makes an appearance at No. 9 replacing Monroe who falls out after a 35-7 loss to Thomas County Central.

A week after losing the No. 1 ranking in Class AA to Benedictine, No. 2 Fitzgerald came out and made a statement, picking up a 70-42 victory over former Class A-Public No. 1 Macon County, who now drops to No. 4. Vidalia sinks two spots to No. 8 after a 28-7 loss to West Laurens. Replacing Dodge County is No. 9 Pepperell. Dodge County fell to 1-2 over the weekend after a 41-34 loss to Appling County.

Not much changed in Class A-Private aside from Athens Academy replacing Aquinas in the No. 10 spot. No. 5 Darlington and No. 6 Calvary Day picked up impressive wins, the Tigers rallying from 14-0 to defeat AA No. 10 Heard County 28-14 while the Cavaliers knocked Aquinas out of the top ten with a 32-13 win.

Commerce rises to No. 1 in Class A-Public. Macon County slips to No. 4 with their loss against Fitzgerald. Replacing Trion and Irwin County are No. 9 Randolph-Clay and No. 10 Taylor County. Trio falls out of the top ten due to a 40-7 loss against 1-3 Bremen. Randolph-Clay has outscored opponents 70-6 while Taylor County has been powered by junior running back sensation Lyn-J Dixon. The highly sought after playmaker already has 726 yards rushing and 12 rushing touchdowns. Dixon brings his 242 yard per game average to No. 4 Macon County on Sept. 23 which a chance to prove the Vikings' legitimacy in the top ten.
