Friday night recap: Week 12

The No. 3 Screven County Gamecocks won the Region 4 title in the Class AA game of the week with a 44-20 victory over the No. 6 Jefferson County Warriors. Luke Martin of the Statesboro Herald has the game story and the Augusta Chronicle has the game's box score here.

The Gamecocks (9-0, 7-0) earned a No. 1 seed while the Warriors (9-1, 6-1) settle for a No. 2 seed. Neither team will know their opponent until Monday, when a three-team mini-game between Region 3's Bleckley County, Washington County and Southwest Macon will be played to decide the No. 3 and No. 4 seeds.

For the Class AA state playoffs bracket, go here. As mentioned, not all seedings have been determined. The Social Circle Redskins, which will play their own mini-playoff game to determine Region 8's No. 4 seed, posted a refresher from the GHSA rules of such games. Any team involved in the mini-playoff game that goes on to qualify for the playoffs will play its Round 1 opponent on Saturday.

On Tuesday, I'll release my annual playoff predictions.
