(4A) Jacksonville 23 Palestine 7

[texasjeremy]

Jacksonville snaps Palestine's 8 straight wins at home, last home loss was to J-ville 7-3 in 2002. Last team to beat Palestine at Wildcat Stadium other than Jacksonville was Athens in 2001.

Next week is Palestine's homecoming against Tatum (2 of the Top 3 teams in East Texas for 3A)

J-ville is Palestine's nemesis every year aren't they? I was hyping Palestine and still think they have the talent to make some noise in D1. The game next week with Tatum should be fantastic. I thought both Palestine and Tatum were "under the radar" coming into this week.

Yes, no matter how good Palestine is they just can't seem to beat Jacksonville, thats 9 losses in a row to the Indians. Last year Palestine went 9-1, but had the 24-20 loss at Jacksonville.

Palestine led 7-0 at the half, but penalties kept killing drives in the 2nd half, Jacksonville got a safety and Palestine had poor field position, which was the death of them. Jacksonville scored a TD with less than 1 min left in the game, to pad the lead a little.
