Texas high school football: Statewide top 25 scoreboard

This week's high school football schedule in Texas is highlighted by Westlake (Austin) trying to bounce back from a rare home loss and Longview taking on a defending state champion from Louisiana.

In the only head-to-head matchup between statewide top 25 teams (according to the MaxPreps computer rankings), Westlake heads to unbeaten Cibolo Steele on Friday.

Westlake saw its 44-game home win streak end last week against Atascocita but the rebound attempt will be a battle. Steele is 3-0 and averaging 55.6 points per game behind quarterback Chad Warner, running back Jonathan Hatton and talented wide receivers Royal Capell and Jalen Cooper.

In another intriguing matchup, Longview (2-1) will play host to defending Louisiana state champ Ruston, which has won 16 games in a row.

Finally, keep an eye on No. 5 Southlake Carroll at Euless Trinity. The host Trojans have piled up 167 points in their first three games and could take a huge step toward winning a district crown with an upset victory here.
