Summary:
             T.R. Miller would lay claim not only to their first undefeated season since 1969 but to their third state championship by defeating the defending 4A champs Deshler. It was a rematch of the 1991 title game with very different results.
             Unlike last year when the Tigers blew a 14-0 lead only to lose in overtime 28-27, Miller built a 20-6 halftime lead and then continued to dominate in the second half when a 76 yard bomb from Samuel to Tim Pettis opened the game up and gave Miller a 27-6 lead. James Fountain led the way with 200 yards rushing and two touchdowns.
             Miller amassed a total of 501 yards and 21 first downs on the evening. Samuel would finish the night with 151 yards passing by completing 7 of 17 passes.
