Ganado is a perfect 5-0 against Bloomington since October of 2018 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Friday. The Indians will venture away from home to square off against the Bobcats/Lady Cats at 7:30 p.m. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Ganado has four straight wins, Bloomington has four straight losses), but none of that matters once you're on the field.
Bloomington better have a healthy lead at halftime, because if Ganado's game last Friday is any indication, that's when Ganado really gets things going. The Indians blew past Schulenburg 42-20. Given the Indians' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 291st, while the Shorthorns are ranked 676th) , the win wasn't entirely unexpected.
