# Royse City at Mesquite Horn, District Game
Mesquite Horn gets the nod from our prediction model, but just barely, with the Jaguars favored by a razor-thin 2 points at home. This is about as close to a true toss-up as you'll find, with the model giving Horn only a 55% win probability, so don't expect any separation between these district rivals. The question for fans: do you trust the algorithm's lean toward the home team, or do you fade it and back Royse City to pull off the upset? Either way, expect a tight battle that could come down to the final possession.
