Gwinnett's 15 state playoff football teams learn 1st-round matchups

For the first time ever, the Georgia High School football playoff brackets were determined by PSR, Post Season Rankings. As opposed to the previous format where the top four teams in each region earned automatic playoff bids and matchups were pre-determined by region, the new format takes every team’s winning percentage, opponent’s winning percentage and opponents’ opponents’ winning percentage into account and seeds teams 1-32. Region winners are guaranteed a top-16 seed and a home playoff game in the first round, but other than that PSR was the only consideration used to seed teams. A total of 15 Gwinnett County teams will extend their seasons to state. The state’s top classification, Class AAAAAAA, will have 10 Gwinnett representatives, with one team qualifying out of Class AAAAAA and four Private teams making up the numbers. In Class AAAAAAA, the biggest eye-catcher was Buford ending up at No. 9 despite its 10-0 record and top-three national rankings. The defending state champion Wolves were one of just three undefeated teams in the classification along with Newton and Carrollton, but a very weak region hurt its metrics.

Georgia just elected a governor who didn’t need rural Georgia to win. That may turn out to be the most important fact about this election, more important than the size of Keisha Lance Bottoms’ margin or how badly the polls missed it.

Five historic Marietta homes open their doors for annual holiday pilgrimage

MARIETTA — A beloved holiday tradition is returning to the Gem City with the 40th annual Marietta Pilgrimage Dec. 4 through 6, showcasing some of the area’s most historic homes decorated for the holidays. Cobb Landmarks and Visit Marietta annually host an opportunity to tour each private home decked in holiday decor at their own pace on a walking tour throughout the first weekend of December. The event is one of the biggest fundraisers of the year for both organizations, with profits split between them. Every year, the pilgrimage’s organizers select a series of five homes along a historic street in the city to showcase to the public. Becky Godbee, co-chair of this year’s pilgrimage, said the event is meant to celebrate historic preservation and strengthen community pride while supporting Cobb Landmarks and Visit Marietta. “It highlights what makes Marietta so special,” Godbee said. “I feel like … the varied architecture of the homes reflects how varied our residents are in Marietta. There is just a wonderful mix of cohesion that just makes it all spectacular.” Prior to the pilgrimage kickoff, the Pilgrimage Gala will take place at The Whitlock Inn on Dec. 3 from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.
