Congratulations Georgia State University Football QB Cam Brown on being named Sun Belt Conference Offensive Player of the Week for the second time in first 5 games.

Set the Panthers single-game record with 6 TD passes in GSU's 42-10 rout of ODU in their Sun Belt opener. Cam also threw for career best 284 yards on just 14-20 passing.

Georgia State (4-1, 1-0 SBC) has this week off before their nationally televised showdown at James Madison two Saturdays from now

Eight new teams break into the GPB Sports Football Rankings this week, including an old favorite.

10/05/2026

6-0 North Gwinnett High School holding at No. 4 in this week's
GPB Sports Football Fridays in Georgia 7A Top 10 rankings. Bulldogs host Brookwood Broncos this Friday night on GPB-TV in a crucial Region 7-7A showdown.

Brookwood fell out of this week's Top 10 following their rivalry loss vs Parkview this past Friday night. This game Friday night at North Gwinnett (tied for first with Peachtree Ridge) is practically a must win for the Broncos to maintain hopes of winning the region championship.

Should be a great game! Look forward to calling it with Wayne Gandy and Jon Nelson this Friday night 7:30p on Georgia Public Broadcasting.

Wave goodbye to LA. No plans to go back to the Ravine. EXTRAORDINARY. Braves beat Dodgers 3-2 on FSI. Back to Atlanta with NLDS tied 1-1. Sale in Game 3. Mahle in Game 4. All those all stars and Hall of Famers on Fox pre and post game show whiffed on this one. Gave the Braves no shot. No problem I’ll just tune to BravesVision

Didi got it done. Now in the 9th. Braves lead Dodgers 3-1 on FS1

Money pays again! Three hit night for Mike. Braves leading Dodgers 3-1. B-7th in Los Angeles. Game Two NLDS

This is why it was so Important to get Suarez back. Two on. Nobody out. Nobody scored. Braves still leading Dodgers 2-1 T6 on FSI

10/05/2026

Money Mike’s heads up hustle leads to 2-1 lead. Triple followed by wild pitch. Braves need to take advantage here. Dodgers and their crowd sleep walking through this game. They can be had tonight. Mid-5th on FS1

4-1 Georgia State University Football now the second highest ranked Sun Belt Conference team in the ESPN CFB Power Index.

Panthers trail only defending conference champion James Madison in those rankings. Georgia State has this week off before playing the Dukes in Harrisonburg two Saturdays from now.

What Coach Dell McGee has done this year has been extraordinary. Panthers have already won as many games this season as the last two seasons combined. FPI projecting 8-4 season for GSU.

Braves Ray Kerr vs Dodgers Blake Snell. Kerr undrafted free agent out of junior college (his second after giving-up on the first) vs. Snell two-time Cy Young Award winner and Kerr was without a doubt the better! Baseball can be a very crazy game. It's all about today. Not what you've done but what you are doing. Braves lead Dodgers 1-0 mid 4th
