And now, perhaps the biggest high school football playoff game in Texas this year is finally here. Two of the top teams in the state - not to mention the entire country - collide in the UIL 6A Division I semifinals as undefeated Duncanville faces equally undefeated North Crowley Saturday afternoon in Allen.

The Eagles are seeking to snap a nine-game losing streak to the Mustangs, with Atascocita’s last win coming in 2017. North Shore has also defeated Atascocita in each of the last three postseasons, including 34-28 in last season’s regional championship game.

I will be reporting live from Legacy Stadium in Katy as North Shore (14-0) takes on Austin Westlake (13-1) in the UIL Class 6A Division I state sefmifinals. Game time is set for 2 p.m., and I'll bring you all the latest updates and analysis here throughout the game.

The Mustangs had taken out the Chaparrals in the semifinals the past two seasons, but behind a tremendous defensive effort and four touchdowns by quarterback Rees Wise, the Chaps earned the program's 12th all-time berth in the finals.
