Duncanville is the No. 4 ranked team in the country and No. 1 team in Texas. DeSoto is the nation's No. 11 team and the No. 4 team in Texas.

Dakorien Moore has only found the endzone once this season. Before he heads to Eugene, Oregon for Oregon-Ohio State on Saturday, can he break loose against a DeSoto's secondary that has allowed points to at least one high-scoring offense already?
