Vote: Who Is the Georgia High School Football Player of the Week? (Oct. 29-31)

Week 11 of the Georgia high school football season gave us seven rushing touchdowns from one back, 440 passing yards from a quarterback who keeps making himself impossible to leave off this list,t and 309 rushing yards from another player who somehow still had a touchdown pass left in him.
We also got three interceptions from one linebacker, five tackles for loss from another defender, and a 204-yard rushing performance in a game between the top two teams in Class 3A where every yard actually mattered.
Each week during the high school sports season, High School On SI will gather the best performances in Georgia football with the help of fans, readers,s and staff.
Now, it’s your turn to choose a standout among the pack, the best of the best.
Here are the nominees for Georgia High School Football Player of the Week for Oct. 29-31. Voting closes Sunday, Nov. 8 at 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time. The winner will be announced in the following week’s National High School Athlete of the Week post.
