Grayson (Ga.) at Thompson (Ala.)
8 p.m. ET on ESPN2 from Thompson High School in Alabaster, Ala.
- Grayson is regularly one of the most talented teams in Georgia, making deep playoffs runs in one of the country’s toughest divisions. Last season was no different as the Rams advanced to the 7A semifinals. The defense will again be stout, with senior DE Andre Fuller committed to Georgia Tech and senior DT Josiah Victor headed to Boston College. The defensive line will be reinforced by two ESPN Junior 300 LB’s: No. 11 Tyler Atkinson and No. 258 Anthony Davis Jr.
- Thompson has been a state champion in Alabama four of the past five seasons. They lost by just two points in the state final last season but look to get back to championship form with and No. 28 senior Jared Smith – DE and No. 36 senior Anquon Fegans – S (Auburn commit). Sophomore QB Trent Seaborn already has over 20 offers.
