Final thoughts

This is one of the premier matchups in any classification on Thursday. Both of these teams are legit threats on offense and defense.

For Ingomar, they must come locked and loaded. They have been on a tear since losing the final two games of the regular season.

Both teams can get out and run or slow the game down. It will be interesting to see how this one plays out as far as tempo.

The Falcons have their eyes set on a state title or bust. This may be their biggest obstacle to get their.
