It was another big week of head-to-head playoff matchups in the High School Football America Georgia Top 25.
The state quarterfinal round had plenty of surprises with North Gwinnett leading the way with its easy 32-13 win over previously unbeaten No. 2 McEachern in Class 7A. McEachern also entered the game ranked No. 7 in the High School Football America 100 national rankings.
