What to watch: The winner stays alive in the race for a District 12-5A title. Horn (6-1) lost for the first time (31-17) to rival Mesquite last week despite getting 115 rushing yards from senior quarterback
Destri White (a Rice recruit). Longview (5-1) has five straight wins since losing the season-opener to then-nationally ranked Coppell. The Lobos feature four-star junior running back
Ja'Mycal Hasty, who has more than 1,000 combined rushing and receiving yards and 13 touchdowns this season.
Just the facts: Longview's 659 wins ranks fourth all-time in Texas history. Yet, the Lobos have won only one state championship in their history. That happened back in 1937. … Horn had lost seven consecutive games against Longview before winning last season's game, 25-17.
