Milton Eagles (1-0)

The Eagles survived a lightning-delayed defensive battle against Buford (No. 13 nationally, No. 2 in Georgia) last week with a hard-fought 13-10 victory that included a more than two-hour delay between halves.

It looks like they will have better conditions to let their offense shine this week, but they will have to weather a different type of storm in the form of American Heritage.

The defending Georgia Class 7A state champs have most of their starters back from last year's team and they will look to make a statement against one of Florida's best on national television.

American Heritage Patriots (0-0)

This is a doozy of a season opener for the Patriots, who warmed up with a 37-26 preseason win against Blanche Ely last week.

While they begin 2023 just outside of the national Top 25, that could change quickly with the level of talent on this squad.

Their offense is stacked with the likes of quarterback Dia Bell (Texas commit), wide receiver Malachi Toney (Miami commit) and Byron Louis (Class of 2025 No. 23 running back).

Throw in the fact that several of their players contributed to American Heritage having the fastest track and field team in the state, and it's easy to see why this team could find itself in the national rankings before long.
