You've got a choice in terms of listening live. The first stream is from KPYN in Atlanta. The second is the GilmerBuckeyes.com stream.

Gilmer started driving from their own 15 after taking the opening kickoff. It's now 4th-and-a-foot at the Rabbit 43.

Kinne takes it on a QB draw and gets to the 41 for a first down. Broadcasters say it is "cold" there, already around 60 at kickoff.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Curtis Brown just caught an 8-yard TD pass.

Burgin's PAT is good. 7-0 Gilmer with 5:59 to go in the first quarter. That's one of the most time-consuming drives the Buckeyes have gone on in recent memory.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Atlanta has suffered a sack. Three-and-out. Short punt to Rabbit 47. Gilmer back in business with 4:14 left in first.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Curtis Brown is coming out of the game with some sort of injury. He had caught two passes in this drive and Brennan Thompson another one.

Kinne has just scored on the fourth play of the 47-yard drive on a 3-yard TD run. Burgin's PAT makes it 14-0 with 2:32 left in first.

Cold??? :rolleyes: :hand:

Wusses.

[Aesculus gilmus]

I can't believe it's 60 there anyhow. I'm in Gilmer and it's still about 75. Atlanta's only 55 miles NNE of here.

Atlanta had a good KO return, but has been forced to punt. Jules Johnson fields punt and brings it back to his own 23. First quarter over as Justin Johnson is thrown for a loss of one on first down.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Total yardage right now is Gilmer 139, Atlanta -1.

Roosevelt Falls has just broken loose on a 65-yard touchdown run for the Rabbits. PAT is botched.
14-6, Buckeyes, with 9:39 left in first half.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Jake Ashley just caught about a 40-yard pass down to the Atlanta 31 on 3rd-and-13.

Kinne hits Lamar Harris for TD right after that. Burgin's PAT is good. With 7:29 left in half, it's Gilmer 21, Atlanta 6.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Atlanta is driving. Now the Rabbs are going for it on 4th-and-1 from the Gilmer 29.

Roosevelt Falls makes first down, but is stripped of the ball. Gilmer's Zack Jones returns it to the Atlanta 48.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Lamar Harris catches a pass down to the 8 for about a 40-yard gain.

Justin Johnson scores on 2nd-and-goal from the 10. Three-play, 48-yard scoring drive.

Burgin's PAT is good. 28-6, Gilmer, with 3:08 left in the first half.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Jamell Kennedy just caught 55-yard TD pass from Kinne. Broadcaster from Atlanta says Gilmer could probably beat some teams in 5A.
Burgin's PAT good. With 1:00 left in half, it's Gilmer 35, Atlanta 6.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Second half's about to start. Kinne passed for 271 yards and 3 TDs in first half. Ran for a fourth.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Roosevelt Falls scores on 4th-and-goal from a foot out, capping 60-yard drive. Unsportsmanlike conduct penalty after TD forces Rabbs to go for two, which fails. With 7:51 left in third quarter, it's Gilmer 35, Atlanta 12.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Lamar Harris catches short pass in flat from Kinne and turns it into 45-yard TD play. Gilmer 42, Atlanta 12, with 2:04 left in third quarter.

Curtis Brown has apparently not returned from his injury in first quarter. I hope they're just resting him.

[Aesculus gilmus]

First play of fourth quarter is a long run by Justin Johnson down to Atlanta 35. Five-yard facemask. First down at Rabb 30.

Johnson takes it on next play down to Atlanta 16 for 14 more yards. However, after play, Gilmer is flagged for 15-yard personal foul.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Josh Thompson scores on 15-yard run. PAT is good. With 8:42 left in the game, it's Gilmer 49, Atlanta 12.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Reserves have all been playing for a while. Atlanta's looking forward to the big Fifth Quarter at the bowling alley.
Final score:
Gilmer 49
Atlanta 12

The scoreboard was immediately shut off. Can't say as I blame them. Atlanta has certainly done this to Gilmer way more often than we have to them over the years.

[Aesculus gilmus]

Atlanta outrushed Gilmer 215 to 202. But Gilmer had 316 passing to zero for Atlanta.

Total yardage:
Gilmer 518
Atlanta 215

Atlanta travels to Mount Vernon next week and Gilmer hosts Sabine as both begin district play.

From Smoaky.com:

"Coach Traylor confirmed tonight Curtis Brown was on crutches after suffering what appears to be an ankle injury---but not sure how severe...and they'll await MRI results...not sure when the MRI will be done or when the results will be available."

Another receiver named Jake Ashley was also hurt in this game. He may be out for quite some time. I heard an estimate of three to four weeks for Curtis Brown. The good news is that Gilmer really does not have a viable opponent left in regular season. I don't say this to brag. It's just true.

Gilmer also has a lot of depth, which will now be needed.
