The Eagles scored the most points by a team in the Gameday Weekly coverage area on August 23.
Cold Springs controlled the game by scoring four times in the 4th quarter after they were holding on to a 20 to 18 advantage.
The Eagles and Bulldogs were playing each other for the first time since 2017.
Cold Springs snapped a three game losing streak to Hanceville and has now won the season opener in three consecutive years under current coach Brendan Voce.
