Originally, the GHSA was going to start the playoffs November 8-9 and then have a bye week over the Thanksgiving Weekend. Now, the playoffs witll start November 15-16 with the bye week being eliminated.
The state championship games will still be played December 16-18 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, home of the Atlanta Falcons.
