Mike Says: The Shorthorns will have a good running game and a strong defense. Both sides will feature solid linemen. Last year they won their games by an average of 29 points per game. Look for them to go 5-5 or 6-4 and battle Blanco for that 3rd playoff spot.

Chris Says: Schulenburg is a team that I have loved watching for some time. The orange Superman logo on the helmet is one of my favorites. They will have their hands full this season with teams like Lexington, Rogers and Blanco. If the Shorthorns do not have a playoff game locked up before the last regular seasons game, they will not get it done against Lexington.
