ROCKWALL, Texas — Win and you're in. Lose and your season is over. Those are the stakes for Forney and Rockwall-Heath on Friday night.

Both teams are 2-3 in District 10-6A. The winner will claim the fourth and final playoff spot. The loser finishes 2-4 and is out of the playoff picture.

You can watch the game live on our streaming platform WFAA+, which is available on Roku, Apple TV, and Amazon Fire TV. You can also watch the game right here on WFAA.com, or our WFAA YouTube channel.

Editors note: WFAA was originally scheduled to broadcast the Highland Park-Midlothian game on Friday night, but that game was moved to Thursday due to impending weather in the area. This game is now replacing that game on our Friday broadcast schedule on WFAA+. And yes, our fingers are crossed the weather cooperates.

Forney features superstar running back Javian Osborne. A top-five running back in the country in the junior class, and a primary target for the Texas Longhorns among other schools, including Michigan. He's back healthy and helped Forney get a much-needed win over Tyler Legacy last week to set up this do-or-die matchup.

Rockwall is led by a pair of quarterbacks — Landen Dutka and Prosper Neal. Both have led the Hawks on their late-season surge as they hunt for that final playoff spot in the district.

Our Friday Night Football pregame show will begin at approximately 8:20 p.m. CT, with kickoff to follow at 8:30 p.m. CT. Join Mike Leslie and Hek'ma Harrison on the call for Week 11 of the Texas high school football season.
