# Early vs. Ballinger Preview The model likes Early by three in this non-district matchup, giving the Horns a 61% home-field edge in what projects as a toss-up battle. Ballinger heads to Early looking to prove it can compete outside district play, but our algorithm favors the home team's familiarity with their own turf. The question for fans: do you trust the slight lean toward Early, or do you think Ballinger has enough to keep this one close? Either way, this should be a spirited non-district test for both programs.
