Close school rivals not playing each other this season

[Scoop27]

Looked at Louise's football and noticed they are not playing Ganado this year. The towns are less than 10 miles apart in both in Class A but different divisions.
They played the past two years.
The only way I figure that they are not playing is because of Ganado dominating the series.

Are there any other neighboring towns that are close and not playing each other for reasons unknown

LH and Burnet are not playing each other in district this year for the first time in a very long time. I went back and looked and it appears that LH and Burnet have been playing each other every season since 1984. I don't know who has the lead in the series. UIL really screwed this one up in my opinion. But if both teams are worth their salt, they will see each other in post district play.

Good thread. I don't care what the classifications are, La Marque, Texas City, and Galveston Ball have to play each other. The fans would start WWIII if they discontinued these.

Clash of the Causeway I, LM v Ball
Clash of the Causeway II, TC v Ball
Battle by the Bay, LM v TC

What's that series at over the past ten years? I know Glen Rose has a won few in recent years.

According to Lone Star Football Network, Burnet leads the series 29-13-6 with LH winning six of the last eight.

Wonder when the last time Wylie and Sweetwater did not play? 40 miles apart--that's just a hop, skip and a jump out here...

Sinton had several rivals that dropped the competition when they dropped to 2A but I don't blame them based on their lack of success against us. These include Taft, Odem, Mathis and Aransas Pass.

Probably 1999, that was sweetwaters last year in the old 4A. Know they played twice when they weren't in district together since then with Sweetwater winning at least once (maybe both). I can't remember Sweetwater ever beating them in district. Someone correct me if I am wrong, been away from Sweetwater awhile and details are getting fuzzy.

But your traded LH for 106 mile Hill Country drive to China Spring!

That can't be right. If they have only played each other every year since 1984, then that's 30 games.

....let's just say 29-1 and we'll call it a day!.....
