Mike Says: Wow..what a shocker that was that Arlington Martin was able to get past Euless Trinity. Don't get me wrong....Martin is good but wow. The key to this game will be the Dragons pass/catch duo of Kenny Hill/Peyton Williams against that very tough Warrior defense. These may be the best two teams left in Class 5A Division I. This is another Early Championship game. The DRAGONS win 24-19!!!

Chris Says:  Arlington Martin is one of those teams that everyone knows is good, but who expected them to beat the Euless Trinity Trojans?  I am guessing just about nobody that wasn't wearing an Arlington Martin Warriors jersey.  I tip my hat to the Warriors and Coach Bob Wager on another great victory.  Can they pull off another big win against Southlake Carroll?  I am not sure.  While we picked Southlake to make it to the state championship in our preseason predictions, I  didn't expect Martin to play the way they have thus far.  If it weren't for that preseason prediction, looking at how both teams are playing right now - I would go with Arlington Martin, but I have to stick with my prediction and say the DRAGONS win 17-14!!!
