Summary: Turnovers were a big part of the 5A state championship game as Williamson made them and Etowah capitalized on them in a 42-26 win for the Blue Devils. The Lions threw four interceptions and lost two fumbles during the game but were able to keep it close until the third quarter.

      Jamarcus Russell would complete 11 of 13 passes for 134 yards in the first half but his lions quickly ran into trouble in the second half.. Adam Gilmer intercepted Russell at the Lion's 48 yard line on the first offensive play in the third quarter. Etowah would score a touchdown on the drive and another shortly thereafter to take a 35-14 lead with five minutes left in the third quarter.

      Mayo would complete 6 of 12 for 150 yards for the Blue Devils who would celebrate their first state championship after losing in the past two state title games. Jamarcus Russell would finish the game completing 18 of 34 passes for 256 yards. Carnell Williams would lead all runners with 194 yards rushing and a 91 yard kickoff return for a touchdown.

      This was the first time Williamson had made an appearance in the championship game.

Game MVP: QB Gary Banks, Southern Choctaw
Records:  Southern Choctaw (13-2); Steve Giddens, Lineville (14-1)
Coaches: Larry Boykin, Southern Choctaw and Lineville
Game: Played Friday December 3, 1999 at Legion Field, Birmingham
 
Summary: The Southern Choctaw Indians, behind the leadership of senior quarterback Gary Banks, won the 2A state championship over Lineville 27-7. Banks is a two time MVP of the championship game as he also won the award last year in a winning effort. All he did was rush for 144 yards, complete 5 of 9 passes for another 42 yards and intercept a pass. 

       The game remained close after halftime at 13-7 until Banks would score a couple of touchdowns on runs of 32 and 45 yards to put the game out of reach. The loss marked the third in four years for Lineville in the title game but the Aggies did set a school record with 14 wins in a season. Lineville turned the ball over five times to take away any chance the Aggies had of winning the game.

Summary: Brantley came into the game with a stellar 14-0 record against a Courtland team that had gone 4-6 in the regular season with a very difficult schedule. So much for records. Courtland turned their underdog role into a 13-10 victory for their fifth state championship since 1988. Brantley kicker Gregory Daniels missed a 28 yard field goal with 10 seconds remaining in the game.

      The kick, if good, would have kept the Bulldog's hopes alive and sent the game into overtime. Instead Brantley was unable to defend their 1A title in 1999. Brantley would regain the lead with 3:40 to play on a 39 yard field goal by Bo Daniels but it would be short lived because 39 seconds later Courtland would charge back into the lead on the 9 yard run by Harris.

      Chauncey Burnett would return the ensuing kickoff 52 yards to put Brantley in position for the win but Daniels would miss the field goal attempt that ended the game.
