State football polls roundup and computer predictions for Central Georgia teams
Northside fell a spot in 6A by the GSWA and stayed at No. 8 in the AJC.
Not surprisingly, Warner Robins dropped a bit after its 41-14 loss to 7A No. 1 Colquitt County, from 2 to 7 in the sportswriters poll and to 3 to 6 in the AJC's.
That helped Jones County move up to No. 4 and 5.
Upson-Lee and Veterans picked up vote in the GSWA poll - Upson-Lee mistakenly as 4A team - as did Perry in 4A, where Mary Persons went up one in both.
Peach County lost two spots (GSWA) and one (AJC) after falling to Mary Persons, to fourth.
In AA, Dodge County maintained its spot at No. 4 and No. 6, and Washington County moved up to 7th and 8th, while Dublin fell out in both, to No. 11 in the GSWA.
And all remained quiet in Class A, although Dooly County - despite being unranked and losing - moved in to No. 10 in the AJC's public list.
There'll be some shakeups next week, what with Northside-Warner Robins, Veterans-Perry, and the possibility of one or two - unlikely more than that - upsets along the way.
Worth noting: Central Georgia has faced the No. 1 team in 7A (Warner Robins vs. Colquitt County), in 6A (Peach County and Southwest vs. Lee County),
