When Statesboro’s back was against the wall, Dequan Daniels dug deep and — along with the rest of his teammates — showed that the Blue Devils are region champions and a No. 1 seed for a reason. Daniels rushed for 72 of his 93 yards in the second half of last Friday’s opening round game of the GHSA state playoffs, and his 10 yard touchdown run with just 2:48 to play knotted up a game that Statesboro had trailed 21-7 and gave the Devils all the momentum to go for the win.
