Argyle @ Wichita Falls Hirschi
Argyle will travel to Wichita Falls on Friday night to take on 5-3 Hirschi.
The Eagles will try to move to 8-0 on the season and running back Don Williams could break the 1,000 yard mark for the season.
Williams has rushed for 887 yards to this point of the season and scampered for 158 yards last week in the Eagles 27-21 victory over Sanger.
For Hirschi, the Eagles will have to find a way to contain Huskies running back Roman Turner, who has rushed for more than 1,300 yards and 16 touchdowns on the season.
The game will be played at Hirschi at 7 p.m. on Friday.
Marcus vs Byron Nelson
The game between Marcus and Nelson could not have larger implications this week.
The Marauders are 3-2 in district and in third place in the standing, while Nelson has unexpectedly won two of its last three and is still in the playoff hunt.
For Marcus, the key is Justin Dinka, who has racked up 1,475 yards rushing and 18 touchdowns on the season.
The Marauders will have to slow Bobcats quarterback Eli Rusche, who has passed for more than 2,000 yards and thrown 18 touchdown passes.
The game will be played at 7:30 p.m. on Friday in Flower Mound.
Guyer @ McKinney Boyd
Guyer will travel to McKinney on Friday night to take on the 1-7 Boyd team, as the Wildcats look to maintain second place in the district standings behind Allen.
It is no secret that Guyer’s biggest threat comes in the form of the two-pronged running attack of Noah Cain and Myron Mason, who have now combined for more than 2,000 yards rushing and 24 touchdowns on the season.
For Boyd, 2016 has been a struggle, but a bright spot for the Broncos has been running back Kaeden Markham, who has rushed for 820 yards and seven touchdowns.
The game will be played at 7:30 p.m. on Friday at McKinney’s Ron Poe Stadium.
Liberty Christian vs Bishop Dunne
After getting off to an 0-4 start on the season, Liberty has clawed its way back into playoff position and will need a win on Friday to maintain the fourth place spot in district.
The Warriors will host Bishop Dunne, who is currently the fifth place team and on the outside looking in.
Both teams feature strong quarterbacks, as Liberty’s Jon Copeland has passed for 1,619 yards and 14 touchdowns, while Dunne’s Stacy Conner has passed for 1,654 yards and 18 touchdowns.
The game will start 7:30 p.m. on Friday at Liberty Christian School in Argyle.
Flower Mound vs Euless Trinity
Flower Mound is looking to rebound after a tough couple of weeks, and Friday’s opponent will be a pretty tall order.
The Jaguars have played a lot better this season than expected, and quarterback Jackson Averitt, who has combined for more than 2,000 all-purpose yards and 23 touchdowns this season will be a handful for any team to try to overcome.
On Trinity’s side of the ball, the Trojans field a strong running game led by Greg Garner, who has rushed for 782 yards and 11 touchdowns this season.
The game will be played at 7:30 p.m. on Friday in Flower Mound.
Coram Deo vs Temple Christian
The Lions will look to rebound from a 41-19 loss to Covenant Christian last week as they prepare to take on Temple Christian.
The game will take place at 7:30 p.m. on Friday at Coppell West Middle School.
