CHATTANOOGA — Brentwood Academy senior linebacker Kenneth Simon II took the result a little harder than some of his teammates.
The Eagles' 38-20 season-opening loss at Baylor on Aug. 20 was a TSSAA football state championship rematch of last year's Division II-AAA final. But it was also a nationally televised bragging-rights affair played between some of the nation's top recruits, with seven Power 4 commits on the field.
That made it more difficult for Simon as a defender to watch fellow Tennessee football commit and Baylor five-star running back David Gabriel Georges wrap up his postgame interview on ESPN2 and skip to the locker room.
Gabriel Georges rushed for 172 rushing yards — most in the second half — and added three touchdowns all after halftime to go with 78 yards receiving.
