    Default Battle of the Eagles: Decatur(3-2) @ Argyle(5-0)

    This is the District 4 Region I D-1 opener for both teams following an open week for both teams. Obviously Argyle is favored and will be playing in front of a home crowd this week for only the 2nd time this season. Looks like Decatur's starting qb Wilson Hicks is healthy and had no problem playing in the game against Bridgeport a couple of weeks ago after leaving the game with an injury against Stephenville. Decatur does have some weapons offensively and have been averaging 40 pts/game. I'm not so sure if their defense will be able to stop the offensive onslaught that this year's Argyle Eagles will bring to the field. Argyle has a very good defense as well, so it appears Decatur will need to rely upon some turnovers to keep this game close. We will see how their offense performs against the Argyle defense this week. Decatur has a good team, and should finish no worse than 2 losses in district play this year. I'm looking forward to seeing Argyle play again......they haven't had but one home game all year.
    Yesterdays are gone forever and tomorrows may never happen, but today you have the opportunity to make a difference.

    I actually like a few of the Decatur kids this year and hope the best for them. That being said if they are down by 25 with 3 minutes left in the game, I hope Argyle leaves most of their starters in and runs a reverse for a TD...I know Argyle would never do that, but it would be nice for Decatur to get a little of their own medicine...

    Probably not the starters......but maybe whomever else is in there playing on offense. They won't score on a play like a reverse, but maybe a straight run or pass play late in the 4th......just because it's their time to play.......and they won't lay down when it's their time to shine. Mostly, the coaches will want them to end it quickly with running plays, though.
