Football Preview: Dekaney Wildcats vs. Aldine Mustangs
Dekaney has played every game this season on their home field, but they'll have to hit the road on Saturday. After each having a week off, they and the Aldine Mustangs will shake off the cobwebs and face off against one another at 6:00 p.m. Neither of those teams managed to put together many points in their previous contests, so the offenses might be a little more motivated than usual.
