Dekaney has played every game this season on their home field, but they'll have to hit the road on Saturday. After each having a week off, they and the Aldine Mustangs will dust off their jerseys to take on one another at 6:00 p.m. Neither Dekaney nor Aldine posted many points in their last games, so it might be the defenses that decide this one.
Dekaney's offense might be in the hot seat on Saturday considering what happened against King two weeks ago. They had to suffer through a 42-0 loss at the hands of the Panthers. While losing is never fun, the Wildcats can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 275th, while the Panthers are ranked 40th).
Meanwhile, it may have taken overtime to finish the job, but Aldine ultimately got the result they hoped for two weeks ago. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 9-6 victory over Northbrook. The win made it back-to-back victories for the Mustangs.
Dekaney's loss was their fourth straight at home dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 0-3. As for Aldine, they now have a winning record of 2-1.
Everything came up roses for Dekaney against Aldine in their previous matchup back in October of 2023, as the team secured a 72-0 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Dekaney since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
