MATCHUP
No. 18 Lowndes (Valdosta, Georgia) (12-0)
vs.
Grayson (Loganville, Georgia) (11-1)
When: 11/29, 8 p.m. ET
Tale of the Tape: Last year, Lowndes knocked Grayson out of the playoffs in the quarterfinals. Grayson would like nothing more than to avoid that exact same situation this year. This looks like it could be a battle of whichever team can stop the run game. Grayson boasts Lafayette Gurvin Jr., who is averaging 100 yards a game and has 17 rushing touchdowns on the season, while Lowndes has the two-headed attack of quarterback Jacurri Brown (1,150 rushing yards, 16 rushing touchdowns) and running back Israel Mitchell (741 yards, seven touchdowns).
