After a busy August and September full of high school football games, ESPN closes out its 2023 prep schedule with two big October games on the East Coast.

From an overtime thriller in Alabama to a come-from-behind exhibition of resilience in Georgia to a defensive slugfest between Pennsylvania and Florida powers, ESPN's August games didn't disappoint.

September's games brought that same high level of high school football to a national audience, including some big plays by some very big players.
