Gordon is on a 12-game streak of home wins (dating back to last season), while Jonesboro is on a six-game streak of away wins: one of those streaks is about to end. The Gordon Longhorns will take on the Jonesboro Eagles at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Gordon had no problem doing just that on Friday. They claimed a resounding 64-16 win over the Panthers at home. Gordon's victory was all the more impressive since Abbott was averaging only 18 points allowed on the season.
Meanwhile, even though May scored an imposing 39 points on Saturday, Jonesboro still came out on top. Jonesboro took their matchup at home with ease, bagging a 86-39 victory over May.
DeMarcus Acoff continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, rushing for 102 yards and three touchdowns on only ten carries, while also picking up 102 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Acoff's longest reception was for an incredible 75 yards. Another player making a difference was Jacob Cisneros, who rushed for 102 yards on only ten carries.
The wins kept both teams' perfect 13-0 season records intact.
