#TeamFYNsports wanted to give our readers a little insight about what to watch for in tonights Elite 8 playoff game between the Fannin County Rebels and the Fitzgerald Purple Hurricanes. Take a look as T Unbeatens: Tonights matchup features two unbeaten teams. Fitzgerald comes in 11-0 and ranked number 1 overall in AA. Fannin Comes in ranked as high as 6 in some polls with a 10-0 record. No matter who you are pulling for, we will see one team come away with their first loss of the season.
Weather and Drive: I could see the cold weather tonight coming into play for sure. Fitzgerald, being in south Georgia is probably not used to playing in the cold Blue Ridge weather. If Fannin comes out with some intensity and starts laying the wood early, they will have a good chance at coming out of this game on top. I also could see the long drive that Fitzgerald has coming into play here. Perhaps these guys are a little sluggish and that could give the rebels the opportunity to jump out early.
