Pies get all the glory in late November. The nut on top deserves a little credit too. Georgia grows more pecans than almost anywhere, and fall is when the fresh crop arrives. Some stops sit beside the very orchards that fill their shelves. Others are small roadside shops with bags of halves stacked by the register.

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. Nobody else in the region finished over .500, and Buford’s opponents averaged a .42778 winning percentage, the

How Georgia’s new high school football playoff system works, why it’s controversial

The Georgia high school football playoff schedule is set, and the state's new ranking system has already sparked plenty of discussion. Ahead of the 2026-27 school year, Georgia adopted a new playoff ranking system, the Post Season Rankings (PSR), for all of sports. The goal is to create a more fair postseason by ensuring the most deserving teams earn playoff spots, regardless of their region. On Saturday, Nov. 7, the Georgia High School Association released the playoff brackets for all eight classifications. Here is everything you need to know about how Georgia's new playoff system works: How does Georgia's playoff system work? Under the new format, the top 32 teams in each classification qualified for the playoffs, rather than automatically awarding postseason spots to the top four teams in each region. Region champions, however, received automatic playoff berths. The GHSA used the PSR formula, its computer-based ranking system, to determine the remaining qualifiers and playoff seeds. According to the GHSA, the PSR system rewards winning consistently, playing strong GHSA schedules, opponents who also win consistently and strong regional competition depth. The system has reduced emphasis on classification bonuses, margin of victory and subjective ranking systems. What is the PSR formula?
