The Lampasas Badgers will take on the Lorena Leopards at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.
Lampasas is probably headed into the match with a chip on their shoulder considering University just ended the team's four-game winning streak on Thursday. They fell 28-21 to the Trojans. The game marked the Badgers' lowest-scoring contest so far this season.
Lampasas might have lost, but man, Bryson Roberts was a machine: he rushed for 70 yards and two touchdowns on only six carries. Roberts got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 56 yards.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Lorena). They came out on top against C.H. Yoe by a score of 26-13 last Friday. Given the Leopards' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 316th, while the Yoemen are ranked 732nd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Having lost for the first time this season, Lampasas fell to 4-1. As for Lorena, their victory (their first of the season) made their record 1-3.
Lampasas and Lorena were almost perfectly matched up when the teams last played back in September of 2019, but Lampasas suffered an agonizing 31-30 loss. Can Lampasas avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
