Friday Night Lights for Oct. 19, 2012: Winder-Barrow Versus Loganville and Apalachee Against Cedar Shoals

Get your Barrow County high school football preview here.

Playoff bids are not exactly on the line in Loganville tonight, but team pride is as the the Red Devils try to eke out a win over the hapless Winder-Barrow Bulldoggs. The Devils haven't won a game since defeating Walnut Grove in their home opener in early September, and have had zero success in the 8-AAAAA region (1-5, 0-4). They hope to change that luck tonight against the 0-6/0-4 Bulldoggs, who, despite having an extra "g" in their mascot's name, haven't won a game since October of 2009. Ouch. Last week, Loganville lost to Apalachee High School in a tight game, while Winder-Barrow lost to Flowery Branch in a not-so-tight game. Next week both teams keep it in-the region, Winder-Barrow heading home to scrap with Cedar Shoals; Loganville heads to Conyers to meet the Heritage Patriots.

It's an 8-AAAAA catfight in Athens tonight as the Cedar Shoals Jaguars welcome Apalachee Wildcats. The Wildcats (2-4, 1-3) squeaked out a win last week against Loganville. The Jags (3-3, 1-2)were on a bye last week but took a trampling by the stampeding Gainseville Red Elephants the week before. Next week, the 'chee head home to welcome the Salem Seminoles while Cedar Shoals heads to Winder-Barrow to face the Bulldoggs.
