It is Friday night, which means that five-star quarterback and Georgia football commit Dylan Raiola is putting up video game numbers.
By halftime, Raiola had already thrown for five touchdowns for Buford (Buford, Georgia), who at that time were up 43-0 after two quarters. It is especially impressive since their opponent, Wheeler (Marietta, Georgia), is a solid 7-3.
They had won two of their last three games coming into Friday night’s opening round of the playoffs in Georgia. But Buford is simply steamrolling teams at the moment.
Three of the touchdowns from Raiola went to wide receiver K.J. Bolden, a Florida State commit. Bolden is a five-star recruit and one of the top-ranked athletes in the nation.

Buford hasn’t given up a point in their last three games. They have averaged over 61 points per game during that stretch.
That is the kind of offensive production one expects from the Buford basketball team, not their football team. But here we are, watching Raiola perform at a completely different level.
According to ESPN, Raiola is a five-star recruit and the No. 8 player in the nation. He committed to Georgia in May.
