Notes:
Pearland should have no trouble once again winning the district 22-5A district title on their way to another 10+ win season. They are missing the big playmakers that they had last year but their offensive line and defense will be great as always. Expect the Oilers to go 9-1 or 10-0 in the regular season and then go to at least the regional playoffs.
