DeKalb County High School is among the final four football programs in the 615 Preps Helmet Madness III bracket competition, and fan voting is live through noon today (Sunday, March 27) to determine the finalists.

The winner will earn bragging rights for “favorite helmet” in the 615 Preps coverage area.

615 Preps began in 2019 as Midstate Preps Plus, a website to help enhance coverage of high school football in Middle Tennessee. The name was changed in March of 2020 to provide a more recognizable brand and to align with the 615 Preps Podcast.

In keeping with its annual tradition of letting fans vote for their favorite helmets in the 615 Preps coverage area, the third edition of Helmet Madness began earlier this month with opening-round matchups. This year’s bracket featured a record 77 teams out of the 87 area teams participating.

Two of last year’s semifinalists, DeKalb County and defending champion Lebanon, return to the final four. DeKalb County has been a semifinalist each year since the competition started in 2020. Green Hill and Lipscomb Academy make up the other remaining teams.

Voting will run through noon Central on Sunday, March 27. Fans may vote once per hour. For the remaining rounds, if a tiebreaker is necessary, an additional vote will be on Twitter @615Preps to determine the winner.
