The Calhoun Yellow Jackets are taking a road trip to challenge the Heritage Generals at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Calhoun knows how to get points on the board -- the squad has finished with 31 points or more in their past seven games -- so hopefully Heritage likes a good challenge.
Calhoun is headed into the contest after thoroughly thrashing Gilmer: they outscored them in every quarter.

Given the Yellow Jackets' advantage in MaxPreps' Georgia football rankings (they are ranked 48th, while the Bobcats are ranked 213th) , the win on Friday wasn't entirely unexpected.
