It’s the final week of the 2024 regular season and both of our local teams have playoff berths secured and are looking for big wins to finish the regular season.  The Trion Bulldogs will have a huge showdown on the road at Bowdon while Chattooga will take on Coosa the little Big Horn.

The Trion Bulldogs are 8-1 on the season and ranked #8 in the state according to the AJC.  They are tied for 2nd place in region 7-A Division 2 with the Bowdon Red Devils.  Bowdon is 7-2 on the year and ranked #3 in state by the AJC.  Both Trion and Bowdon have one region loss coming at the hands of the Manchester Blue Devils.  The winner of tonight’s game will secure 2nd place in the region and most importantly will secure a home playoff game in the first round.  Bowdon’s two losses this year came in week 1 at home against Fellowship Christian 36-35 and four weeks ago at home to Manchester 28-20.  Bowdon has won back to back state titles the last two seasons.

The Chattooga Indians secured their spot in the playoffs with a win on the road last week at Dade County 56-36.  Chattooga is currently 6-3 on the season while Coosa 3-6 with only one region win against Armuchee.  Coosa took a loss last week 42-14 on the road at Gordon Lee.  Chattooga’s 6 wins this season are the most wins they have had in a season since 2018 under former head coach Charles Hammon.
