Week 10 winners, losers: Georgia gets scary, Ohio State hits rock bottom
It’s important to remember that it’s no longer September but now November, when the hijinks of non-conference play are replaced by serious business. In its past eight quarters of football, No. 2 Georgia has not trailed for a single second in outscoring its two ranked opponents away from home 79-15 and running for more yards (512) than it has allowed overall (497). Those opponents were then-No. 17 Florida and No. 11 Mississippi. In the two games since a weird loss to Auburn , Georgia has turned back into the most complete team in the country. CFP rankings live predictions: We have a new No. 1, and it's bye bye, Buckeyes O-H... Oh no!

Toy Trot 5K in Winder aims to raise $30,000 to bring holiday cheer to local children
The Walton-Barrow Board of REALTORS® is inviting runners, businesses and community members to lace up their shoes and help make the holidays brighter for children in need during the 17th Annual Toy Trot 5K on Saturday, Nov. 14, in Winder. Proceeds from the annual event will benefit Shop With A Hero in Barrow County and Hometown Heroes of Walton, programs that give children the opportunity to shop for holiday gifts alongside local heroes. Organizers have set a fundraising goal of $30,000 and are encouraging the community to support the effort through race registration, business sponsorships and donations. Every $250 donated can help provide another child with the opportunity to participate in the holiday shopping experience. Children are identified by school counselors and selected based on need. During the shopping event, each child is paired with a local hero and given a set amount to spend at Walmart. The experience allows children to select gifts for themselves and their loved ones. They also often choose needed personal items. Children can shop for anything in the store except food items, and volunteers help wrap the gifts to make the experience even more special. The Toy Trot will begin at Russell Middle School,
