Also, Peachtree Ridge of Suwanee breaks into the AAAAAA rankings.
Congratulations, North Gwinnett, you're No. 1.
The Bulldogs of Suwanee, now 2-0 after Friday's 35-0 win over Gwinnett rival Grayson, are the new No. 1 team in the Georgia High School Football Daily AAAAAA ranking released Monday. The rankings also are published in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
