The Tigers hosted the Permian Panthers at home on October 21. The Tigers got off to a hot start, getting up 35-14 before the half. However, the Odessa Permian was able to come back in the second half with an explosive running game and strong offensive line.

The Tigers offensive kept things competitive, with receivers Tate Beeles and Leyton Store each going over 170 yards and Hudson Hutcheson threw for 407 yards and four touchdowns.

Despite the loss, the Tigers are still in the District Championship race, with four teams currently tied for first place. The Tigers will look to win on the road this week against the Odessa Bronchos at Ratliff Stadium.
