Looking for a good game this Thursday night? Just depends on where you call home. In Part I of our Thursday preview, we've broken down the state for you, so look for your region (more or less) and plot a course to your local stadium. After all, you never know which matchup could become an instant classic. If you don't feel like leaving the house, join staffer Travis Stewart tonight for his live blog of the Argyle vs. Paris game in McKinney. Kickoff is at 7:30, but the blog will start up at 7:00 -- swing by for questions, comments, concerns or just to chat. Part II of this preview will run today at noon.
If you live way out East ...Tenaha (10-0) vs. Alto (8-2), 7 p.m., Bullard (1A)
Notes: Tenaha is making its fourth straight appearance, Alto its sixth ... This year was Tenaha's first undefeated regular season since 1998, when it won a 1A state title (16-0, it's only championship) under long-time coach Raymond Jackson ... Alto won back-to-back 1A-DI titles in 2006 and 2007 ... For all the talk of Alto's defense (allowing just 12 points per game), it's actually Tenaha's that's been better. The Tigers have given up just 76 points all year long ... Alto is a one-point favorite, but I'm taking Tenaha.
