They have been able to limit their opponents’ scoring while also putting up huge offensive numbers. Their playoff experience has been strong, with a perfect 2-0 record in neutral-site games. This resilience is a key strength that could carry them deep into the postseason.
Mt. Enterprise Wildcats: A Power Running Game
Mt. Enterprise (9-3, 3-3 district) has had a strong season as well, finishing with a .750 win percentage overall. Their record includes a perfect 4-1 mark at home, but they have been less consistent on the road, with a 3-2 record. Their offense has been built around a powerful running game, averaging 341.8 rushing yards per game. This high rushing output has been led by star player Kaegan Ash, who has posted impressive numbers, including 225.4 rushing yards per game and 27.8 points per game. The Wildcats have also been good at generating total yards, averaging 364.2 per game, but their passing game has been a weak point, with only 22.3 yards per game through the air.
Defensively, Mt. Enterprise has struggled in comparison to Bremond, with just 61.4 tackles per game and 1.3 sacks per game. Their scoring defense is also a concern, as they allow an average of 332 yards and 36.2 points per game. However, they have shown resilience in their victories, particularly their strong wins over Wortham and Lovelady. Mt. Enterprise’s head-to-head record against common opponents has been mixed, with a 1-2 record, including a tough loss to Bremond’s Week 1 opponent, Grapeland.

Final Thoughts

Enterprise have shown they are playoff contenders, but Bremond’s superior overall offense, particularly in the passing and rushing game, and their solid defense give them the edge as they head into postseason play. While Mt. Enterprise has the capability to control the ground game with Ash leading the way, their struggles in the passing game and on defense may prove costly in the playoffs.

Whether Bremond can continue their offensive dominance or Mt. Enterprise can find a way to break through on both sides of the ball, one thing is certain: both teams have the talent to go far in the race for the state title.
