THURSDAY'S QUESTION

What is ELCA's all-time record in state championship appearances?

THURSDAY'S ANSWER

6-of-9 prior to this year's appearance

STATE CHAMPIONSHIP PREVIEW: AAAAAAA

Marietta achieved its first 12-win season since 1994 with its 42-31 win over Parkview in the semifinals and now the Blue Devils’ are set to make their first finals appearance since the program captured the title in 1967. Leading this year’s successful run has been a roster of college-bound and highly-touted Class of 2020 prospects. Quarterback Harrison Bailey has thrown for 4,000 yards off 251-of-362 passing (69.3 percent) with 44 touchdowns and nine interceptions. Senior running back Kimani Vidal has racked up 1,511 rushing yards and 22 touchdowns. As for the receiving corps, five-star Arik Gilbert has 90 catches and 1,614 receiving yards with 12 touchdowns, Ricky White has 92 catches with 1,246 receiving yards with 14 touchdowns and Taji Johnson has 39 catches for 649 yards and 8 touchdowns. Unlike previous postseasons that have been impacted by injuries, Marietta is arriving stronger than ever to Georgia High School Football’s ultimate stage.

Sitting one win away from taking home the program’s sixth all-time state title, Lowndes is making its first championship appearance since its successful 2007 title run. This year’s Vikings team has excelled on both sides of the football—averaging 39.6 ppg offensively and limiting opponents to just 11.3 ppg with a flawless 14-0 record that has propelled them to the top 10 in national polling. Sophomore quarterback Jacurri Brown is the mechanism that keeps all the levers operating in Lowndes’ explosive offense and he has already contributed 1,253 passing yards and 1,508 rushing yards this season. In the Vikings’ 49-28 victory over North Gwinnett in the semifinals, Lowndes was able to explode to a 42-14 lead at the half before the Bulldogs chipped away at the deficit in the second half. This was achieved, despite senior running back and 2019 Region 1-AAAAAAA Player of the Year Gary Osby, sidelined for the third-straight week with an injury.

When comparing the explosive offenses of Lowndes and Marietta, the differences are stylistic and not effectiveness. Marietta quarterback Harrison Bailey is coming off one of the best performances of his career, completing 24-of-28 attempts for 423 yards and five touchdowns in the semifinal win over Parkview. As for Lowndes, their quarterback Jacurri Brown and junior Austin Wright gashed North Gwinnett’s defense with 314 of the team’s 397 rushing yards in the 49-28 semifinal blowout. Lowndes’ ability to run the football could be a key to limiting Bailey and the Marietta offense’s possessions. Conversely, Marietta running back Kimani Vidal can also dictate the pace with his physical running.

STATE CHAMPIONSHIP PREVIEW: AAAAAA

Allatoona is in the finals for the first time since the program captured its first-ever state crown in 2015. The Buccaneers have been in a couple of close in throughout their run to this year’s finals and are fresh off a 17-14 overtime victory against Richmond Hill in the semifinals. In the win, Bucs quarterback Danté Marshall found Asante Das for the 36-yard game-tying touchdown pass with just 1:37 left in regulation. After Richmond Hill missed a field goal in the first possession of overtime, Allatoona’s Jude Kelley made a 22-yard field goal on third down to give the Bucs the road win. Defensively, Allatoona has allowed just 8.5 ppg during the postseason and the Bucs also had success on that side of the ball in the 21-17 loss to Harrison during the regular season. Offensively, Das is a player to watch and the senior receiver enters the finals with a team-high 15 receiving touchdowns.

The undefeated Hoyas have already produced a school-record 14 wins this season and are now sitting just one historic win away from clinching the program’s first-ever state title. Harrison’s 40.6 ppg scored this season are also an all-time best, as is the 29.9 average margin of victory seen this season so far. Last weekend in the semifinals, the Hoyas outmatched No. 1 ranked Dacula convincingly in a 38-7 blowout. Senior quarterback Gavin Hall and running back David Roberts each rushed in one touchdown before their senior teammate, running back Mason Babay, tacked on three second-half rushing scores. Harrison’s closest game this year was its narrow 21-17 win over Allatoona in Region 6 play back on Oct. 11. The Hoyas fell behind 17-7 at the half, but outscored the Bucs 14-0 in the final two quarters to escape from the defensive struggle victorious.

Familiarity will play a big factor as the two Region 6-AAAAAA rivals face off for the second time this season. Both offenses struggled in the previous meeting: Harrison quarterback Gavin Hall finished 4-of-9 passing for 46 yards and one touchdown with one interception while the running game picked up 111 yards off its 34 combined carries. Allatoona quarterback Danté Marshall completed just five of 16 attempts for 118 yards and had two touchdowns to go with two interceptions. The Bucs’ running game picked up just 109 yards on 32 total carries. Expect both coaching staffs to be hard at work installing game plans that can open up opportunities that were hard to come by the last time around.

STATE CHAMPIONSHIP PREVIEW: AAAAA

Buford lost a stunner to Clarke Central 31-28 in the final game of the regular season and then carried the Region 8-AAAAA No. 2 seed to the state championship. From 2000-16, Buford won 10 state championships and lost in five championship games. Since 2000, its worst finishes were quarterfinal exits in 2005, 2006 and last year. From 2007-16 the Wolves were in the championship game in each of the 10 seasons with victories in 2007-10 and 2012-14. In his first season as head coach, Bryant Appling has continued the expected levels of success at Buford. The Wolves pride themselves on defense, and in their 29-0 semifinal victory over Jones County, Buford sacked Jones County quarterback Hunter Costlow six times and got a safety while holding the Greyhounds to just 33 rushing yards. Against Jones, Buford gained 287 yards on the ground and controlled the clock to perfection. Its offensive line allowed running back Victor Venn 14 carries, 108 yards and two touchdowns.

Warner Robins lost to Rome at home in the championship game in 2017 after snowy conditions postponed the games at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Then, after losing in a marathon triple-overtime thriller to Bainbridge 47-41 in the championship game last year at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, the Demons enter this year’s championship with a title-sized chip on their shoulders. Warner Robins is in the hunt for its fifth state title and first since 2004 after winning in 1976, 1981 and 1988. In the semifinals, the Demons displayed why the offense has been lauded all season with a 55-3 victory over Starr’s Mill. Junior quarterback Jalen Addie is 144-of-278 passing for 2,297 yards and 23 touchdowns. Armon Porter, Ty Carr and Marcayll Jones are favorite targets. On the ground, Addie, Jalen Rutherford, Ahmad Walker and James Smith are threats. The Demons enter the title game scoring 35.7 points per game.

A total of 15 football championships are in the trophy cases between Buford and Warner Robins and, although both teams enter the championship game with firstyear head coaches, the traditions of success have continued in 2019. Bryant Appling took the reins of a Buford program that saw the departure of John Ford after 11-2 and 10-3 records in 2017 and 2018. Appling was a Buford assistant for 15 years prior to the promotion. Marquis Westbrook took the head coaching job at Warner Robins after Mike Chastain’s departure to Jones County, which Buford beat in the semifinals on the road 29-0. Warner Robins wants to punch through after losing to Bainbridge in last year’s title game and Rome two years ago. Buford’s last finals appearances were losses in back-to-back championship games in 2015 and 2016.

STATE CHAMPIONSHIP PREVIEW: AAAA

Two-time defending state champion Blessed Trinity is sending a resounding message to those that doubted whether the Titans would be back on the championship stage after graduating a loaded group of seniors this past spring. The Titans avenged their lone loss this season last Friday, by cruising past Woodward Academy 46-21, and that 25-point win is the closest game that the team has seen during this current postseason run. Senior running back Elijah Green missed Blessed Trinity’s first matchup with Woodward Academy, but his presence was felt in last Friday’s matchup as he racked up 195 yards and three touchdowns in tandem with freshman Justice Haynes, who added 158 yards off 20 carries and a 53-yard score in the winning effort. The same defensive fortitude that fueled the last two championship runs has also shined this postseason and the unit has allowed just 9.5 ppg through the first four rounds.

Oconee County has been eliminated in the first round each of the past three seasons, but this year’s Warriors team has strung together an impressive postseason run that has them in the championship for the first time since 1999. The Warriors’ latest playoff victory was a 35-28 triumph over Sandy Creek, the classification’s highest-scoring offense. Senior quarterback and LSU commit Max Johnson was huge for the Warriors, with two touchdown passes and two rushing scores. This performance came after Johnson’s 18-of-24 outing and two touchdown passes led Oconee County to a 17-7 win over Marist in the quarterfinals. In Oconee County’s 39-7 win over Perry in the second round, Johnson went 19-of-23 passing for 253 yards and five touchdowns through the air. This postseason, Johnson has accounted for 10 passing touchdowns and three rushing scores. The Warriors’ passing attack also features 6-foot-2 senior Ben Noland and 6-foot-6 sophomore Jake Johnson.

Blessed Trinity has a knack for limiting opponents with talented quarterbacks and Saturday will put the Titans to the test as red-hot Oconee County quarterback Max Johnson takes the field. The Titans have already tallied 41 total sacks this season heading into the matchup. The Oconee County defense enters the matchup allowing just 12.7 ppg, but the Blessed Trinity running attack is going to be a big test for the Warriors. Leading the Titans’ backfield is 3-star senior and UNC commit Elijah Green, a physical playmaker and the son of former NFL safety Victor Green. The younger Green carried the ball 23 times in the semifinals as he racked up 195 yards and three touchdowns.
