Once again, it was a wild day for Texas High School Football. What a great time of the year. Here are just some of what happened on Friday night.

* Pearland beats Houston Lamar and LSG was there. It looked like Lamar was the better team after holding Pearland to 5 total yards through a quarter and a half. Things turned around though when the Oilers got an interception at their own 20 as Lamar was driving and leading at the time 7-0. Lamar QB Darrel Colbert played a great game and was a lot of fun to watch. The Oilers play Cypress Fairbanks next week it what is shaping up to be a defensive struggle.
