The GHSA released the 2021-22 football schedule and – beginning with the Corky Kell Kickoff Classic on Wednesday, Aug. 18 – quality matchups command attention.

The opening week features top-tier matchups across the state, but it is difficult to look past the 30th edition of the Corky Kell and its 11-game schedule during the first week of the high school football season.

Beginning with a double-header on Aug. 18 between Cherokee-Mays and West Forsyth-Carver-Atlanta, the Corky Kell will conclude with a five-game stint at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Saturday, Aug. 21.
