Sealy (4-0) (9-0)
La Grange (3-1) (8-1)
Giddings (3-1) (8-1)
Smithville (1-3) (5-4)
Bellville (1-3) (5-4)
Columbus (0-4) (4-5)
Well here we are in the final week of the regular season and D25 offers one of the best match ups of the season with Sealy traveling to La Grange to try and wrap up a perfect season and gain an undefeated district championship. Meanwhile
Giddings and Bellville draw mop up duty hosting winless Columbus and struggling Smithville.
Bellville v Smithville.
It seems the Tigers have lost much of their momentum as their schedule progressed from Columbus and La Grange to Giddings and Sealy. Now Bellville has a shot to tack on a much needed win to preserve a winning season at 6-4. They will not make the play offs this year but can close out their season on a positive note with a win. We feel that the Brahma spirit and their tenacious D will be too much for the Tigers and Bellville gets the win by 2 or 3 tds.
Columbus @ Giddings
Giddings hosts district 25's winless Cardinals in a game has little impact on the district title race unless the Leps give the Buffs some big time help by beating Sealy. Giddings coasts to victory and their starters get pulled early in this one.
Sealy @ La Grange
La Grange gets a shot at the big game once again in hosting Sealy. The Tigers come in with confidence and a full house of offense and defense to try and take the district championship outright. Can the Leps stop Downey and Miller and put enough points on the board to get the win? They will need plenty for sure. Plenty is what the Leopard offense does and this week they finally get the whole game together. Leps by 12.

Sweeny (4-0) (7-2)
Brookshire Royal (3-1) (4-5)
Needville (3-1) (6-3)
Wharton (2-2) (2-6)
Stafford (0-4) (5-4)
West Columbia (0-4) (1-7)
West Columbia @ Stafford
This game will be about respect. Neither team wants to finish last in district. W.C. should have the better athlete's in this tilt with Stafford. Stafford who started the year 5-0 hit a wall when district started and is hoping to get back in the winning column.
West Columbia by 7
Needville @ Brookshire Royal
With both teams already in the playoffs the only thing on the line is second in district. Needville will try to control the clock. Brookshire will counter with speed and the capability to score quick and often.
Brookshire Royal by 21
Sweeny @Wharton
Sweeny travels to Wharton with one thing on their mind beat Wharton and finish undefeated in district for the second straight year. Wharton is a solid team that has played an extremely difficult schedule. As of late the Tigers have played well. Look for the Tigers to tire defensively in the 2nd half.

Luling (4-0) (5-4)
Sam Houston (3-1) (7-2)
La Vernia (3-1) (6-3)
Somerset (2-2) (6-3)
Poteet (0-4) (3-5)
Marion (0-4) (1-8)
We will start D27 preview with the two big games with playoff implications.
Luling @ La Vernia
The Luling Eagles are in the playoffs which is quite an accomplishment after going winless last year and dealing with tragedy this year. Now, they want the District title out right and to do that they have to go into La Vernia and beat the Bears. It is very hard not to root for the Eagles, and we do most of the time, but tonight in La Vernia the clock strikes midnight.

Sam Houston @ Somerset.
We’re not going to try and understand all the playoff possibilities here, so we’ll keep it simple and hope we’re right. Both teams pretty much have to win to get in. If Somerset wins, they end up with the same record as the Hurricanes and we think that probably gets them in. If Sam Houston wins, there is no doubt. We think there will be no doubt.

Yoakum (2-2) (4-5)
Palacios (1-3) (3-6)
Goliad (1-3) (1-8)
Gonzales (0-4) (1-8)
Edna @ Cuero
Edna is a scary team. They have skilled, quick players who can hit big plays. They have a defense that is ranked 11th in 3A in points allowed and they take the ball away at an alarming rate. We think the Cowboys will beat a heavily favored foe before their season ends. Cuero is a heavy favorite in this game but they will not overlook Edna. Cuero has two major players on offense in Arndt and Jackson, but their strength is every Gobbler that steps on the field will play hardnosed disciplined football. They know how to get it done in Cuero. If you live in the Victoria/crossroad area and you’re a HS football fan, you’ve been hearing about this match-up for weeks. It’s going to be an electric environment in Cuero Friday night and even though we have great respect for the Cowboys, Cuero will feed off the energy extend their district, and home field, winning streaks.

Yoakum @ Goliad
It has been written that Goliad could somehow get into the playoffs with a victory over Yoakum. Some sort of tie breaker formula shows its possible, but winning this football game will be a lot tougher than any tie breaker scenario. Yoakum can taste the playoffs and the ‘dogs are hungry. On this night it’s not even close.

Ingleside (8-1; 5-1) @ Robstown (5-4; 4-2) - It is unbelievable that Ingleside could lose this game and not make the playoffs. Both teams are fighting for their playoff lives. Ingleside just needs to win and they are in! Robstown needs to win, but would also need Oso to beat Sinton to get in. (someone help if this is incorrect!) After last week's win against Sinton, we don't think Ingleside will have any problems with Robstown. Mustangs by 14.
West Oso (4-5; 3-3) @ Sinton (8-1; 5-1) - Bad news for the Bears. They are coming into Sinton after a Sinton loss. It will be senior night and the Pirates are looking to make a statement. Pirates by 21
Falfurrias (0-8; 0-6) @ Mathis (6-3; 5-1) - Mathis will roll and look to work on some improvements for the playoffs. Mathis by 30+
Orange Grove (2-7; 1-5) @ Aransas Pass (1-8; 1-5) - This is actually a big game for these two. Both have some talent, just can't seem to get going. Aransas Pass did a great job of getting up on Oso last week, but could not keep it going. A win for Aransas Pass could be huge headed into the off-season, but Orange Grove is just so scrappy and they know how to win. OG by 10.

La Feria @ Rio Hondo
One of these teams is going to be in the playoffs and you can chalk that up to good coaching and not quitting as each of these teams have been beaten and bruised this year. But, they’ve kept playing and the winner of this one will play next week.

Will Lyford rest starters? We don’t think so, at least not until the game is in the bag. An undefeated regular season is a special accoplishment and we think Lyford is on a mission.
