The clash between the Alpaugh Buffalos and the East Valley Falcons is set to be an exciting California high school football matchup. While some might consider this a toss-up, the recent performance of both teams gives a slight edge to the Buffalos. Alpaugh enters this game with a solid 1-0 record, having just secured a hard-fought 14-12 victory over Maricopa. This win shows they have the grit and determination to close out tight games. On the other hand, the Falcons are still looking for their first win of the season, with a 0-1-1 record after a lopsided loss to Milken and a high-scoring tie against Public Safety Academy. While East Valley’s offense proved it could put up points in that 64-64 tie, their defense appears to have some vulnerabilities. Alpaugh’s recent win, particularly their ability to grind out a victory, suggests they’re better prepared for the pressure of a close contest. The momentum and confidence from their opening win should give the Buffalos a significant advantage heading into this game.
