Strap It On Time

Trinity (state #1) vs. Allen (9), 5pm Saturday Cowboy Stadium.  The teams traded wins in 2008 with Allen revenging their only loss on the way to the state title.  Allen won in the regular season last year but Trinity went on to the state title.  This year Allen was 3rd in the area in total offense, Trinity 5th.  Allen is more balanced as always as Trinity will rely on their power running game.  However this year Trinity is 1st in the area only allowing 187 yards per game on defense.  I anticipate Trinity being able to run on Allen this time around and Allen's only chance is to hit some big plays in the passing game.

Another huge area matchup this week is Celina vs. Lovejoy in 3A.  Both Collin county schools, both are ranked in the top 5 in the state.  Celina margin of victory 52-16, Lovejoy 47-11.  Celina is undefeated, Lovejoy's only loss came to Argyle, also in the state top 5.  This should be a state semi or finals match-up, but coming in Round 2.
