Preview: Burges vs. Austin

Austin (3-3) takes on Burges (5-1) this Thursday at 6:30 PM.

Austin can no longer brag about a perfect record at home. It wasn't too far behind, but it still lost 23 - 18 to El Paso last week. However, senior Alejandro Cabral didn't go down without a fight as he earned one touchdown and 183 yards rushing the ball. This sound performance was nothing new for Cabral, who has been a rock for Austin in the past five games. Meanwhile, Burges claimed a 14 - 0 victory over Jefferson last week.

The last time they met, Burges was the clear winner with a 62 - 28 finish. Austin couldn't get the same offensive movement going as Burges (632 yards compared to 239 yards), so it will surely be hoping to change that this time around. Will Austin avenge its loss? We'll find out soon enough.
