Two dominant signal callers in Coltyn Fulton and Roman Morales are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. The Tascosa Rebels's road trip will continue as they head out to face the Saginaw Rough Riders at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Both might be coming in a bit winded given these two teams combined for 1,075 yards in their previous games.
Tascosa is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Thursday. They were the clear victor by a 30-9 margin over Americas. The result was nothing new for the Rebels, who have now won four matchups by 21 points or more so far this season.
It was another big night for Fulton, who rushed for 135 yards and two touchdowns. He is becoming a predictor of Tascosa's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is 4-2 (and 2-3 when he doesn't). Reese Cabe was another key player, rushing for 71 yards and a touchdown.
Tascosa was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 384 rushing yards. That's the most rushing yards they've posted since back in September.
Meanwhile, Saginaw put another one in the bag on Friday to keep their perfect season alive. They skirted past Azle 41-39.
Morales was his usual excellent self, throwing for 478 yards and five touchdowns while picking up 12.6 yards per attempt, and also rushing for 150 yards and a touchdown. The dominant performance gave him a new career-high in rushing yards. Aidan Collier was Morales' top target, picking up 169 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
Saginaw wouldn't let Azle keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Saginaw can thank Collier and Jahirim Skinner for forcing both of them. Collier is on a roll when it comes to receiving touchdowns, as he's now hauled in two or more in the last three games he's played.
Saginaw pushed their record up to 11-0 with the win, which was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season. Those good results were due in large part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 36.6 points per game. As for Tascosa, they now have a winning record of 6-5.
