The Rivalry Continues: East/West to Meet for 17th Time
It's almost time for Friday Night Lights which means the 2026 rivalry game is set. The 2026 game between the East Titans and West Warriors will be on Friday, September 4 at 7:30 p.m. at Frost Bank Memorial Stadium in Victoria. Come on out and show your support.
Just like last year, the game has lost some of its luster. In 2024, the East and West districts were realigned, which means that this will be an early season non-district matchup. Last year, the West Warriors won the battle of the boot 32-29. West has won two consecutive years.
