A matchup featuring two of the top three teams in Texas highlighted last week's slate of high school football action in the region.
In the end, it was a dominant win for one of those programs while the other was left with questions. That was not the only game that resulted in some changes in this week's rankings as a blowout loss for one program allowed for the reentry of another that's been on the bubble.
Here are USA TODAY Sports' Week 9 Southwest Region Super 15 rankings.
1. Allen (TX)
Record: 6-0
Next game: Thursday, Oct. 15, at Rock Hill (TX), 7 p.m. CT
As improbable as it may seem, the Eagles outgained McKinney (TX) 507-85 in 70-3 win. Ty Snell had as many touchdown passes as incompletions in the win with
three each, while Jrue Simmons added three more touchdowns on the ground.
2. North Crowley (Fort Worth, TX)
Record: 6-0
Next game: Friday, Oct. 16, vs. Lake Ridge (TX), 7 p.m. CT
The win of the week belonged to North Crowley as the Panthers went on the road and knocked off another top team in the country in dominant fashion, beating Waxahachie (TX) 42-17. While Jacob Torres went a perfect 11-for-11 passing, a punishing ground game led by Kiante Ingram (157 yards, two touchdowns) and G'Yrell Smith (116 yards, three touchdowns) led them to the win.
3. North Shore (TX)
Record: 7-0
Next game: Friday, Oct. 23, vs. King (TX), 7 p.m. CT
The Mustangs' streak of shutouts came to an end but they were likely more focused on winning than keeping that streak alive as they held on for a 28-27 win over Summer Creek (TX). Javoris Taylor proved to be the difference in the win, passing for 159 yards and a pair of touchdowns while also rushing for 117 yards.
4. Waxahachie (TX)
Record: 5-1
Next game: Friday, Oct. 16, at Red Oak (TX), 7 p.m. CT
For the first time this season, the Waxahachie offense was kept in check. North Crowley's defense limited Jerry Meyer III to 112 yards passing and forced him to also lead the team in rushing as Taylen Strange totaled just 81 yards on 21 carries.
5. Bixby (OK)
Record: 6-0
Next game: Thursday, Oct. 15, vs. Norman North (OK), 7 p.m. CT
The narrow win over Jenks (OK) on Sept. 11 seemed to wake up the Spartans. Since that game, they're averaging 58.7 points per game, including a dominant 50-14 win over Edmond Memorial (OK) on Friday night.
6. Randle (Richmond, TX)
Record: 6-0
Next game: Thursday, Oct. 15, vs. Pasadena (TX), 6:30 p.m. CT
The streak of scoring 69 or more points in a row came to an end on Friday but that doesn't mean that the Lions weren't dominant once again. They had no issues cruising past Iowa County (TX) 49-7.
7. Broken Arrow (OK)
Record: 6-0
Next game: Thursday, Oct. 15, vs. Mustang (OK), 7 p.m. CT
Against Westmoore (OK), the Tigers jumped out to a 28-point first-quarter lead and never looked back. With a 61-0 win, they've now scored four or more points in their last five games and 50 or more in two of their last three.
8. Prosper (TX)
Record: 5-1
Next game: Friday, Oct. 16, at Dallas Jesuit (TX), 7 p.m. CT

Next game: Friday, Oct. 23, at North Shore (TX), 7 p.m. CT
