The No. 1 and 2 teams in the state of Georgia square off in an early-season match-up that pits two of the nation's top-25 programs against one another.

It's also a contest featuring some of the country's top individual high school football talent.

And it didn't take long for one of the them to shine.

Milton four-star wide receiver CJ Wiley, a Florida State Seminoles pledge, caught a short pass and showcased his athleticism, leaving defenders grasping at air on a first down gain.

Considering Wiley measures in at 6-foot-4 and a shade over 200 pounds, his quickness and fluidity are astouding.

Later in the contest, the Florida State pledge showcased his downfield ability, hauling in a touchdown pass:

No wonder Florida State considers his commitment a major win over the likes of Auburn, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Miami, Michigan, Oklahoma and others.

Of course, anyone who has watched Wiley isn't surprised.

As a junior, he racked up 68 receptions for 1,468 yards and 14 touchdowns.
