Meanwhile, V.R. Eaton came into Friday's contest having lost five straight, but that streak is now in the rearview. They came out on top against Braswell by a score of 49-42 last Friday. Given the Eagles' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 132nd, while the Bengals are ranked 311th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Things could have been worse for Northwest, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 58-44 loss to V.R. Eaton in their previous meeting back in September of 2017. Thankfully for Northwest, Titus Swen (who rushed for 295 yards and four touchdowns while picking up 7.8 yards per carry) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result?
