Lubbock Estacado (2-0) at Amarillo Palo Duro (1-1): Lubbock Estacado, who entered the state rankings this week in 4A-Division I, makes the trip up I-27 to take on a Palo Duro squad that is working to re-establish themselves as a power in the Texas Panhandle under PDHS alum Eric Mims.
Estacado is off to a fast 2-0 start as the Matadors rolled past Dumas, 49-16, last week. RB Bobby Ross ran for 209 yards and two touchdowns on just eight carries to pace a rushing attack, which ran for 331 yards. It was the second straight week that Ross topped 200 yards on the ground.
