The season is still early, but some trends are starting to show. Americas, El Dorado, Franklin, and Montwood look like they will be the cream of 1-5A. Riverside is as exciting as anyone. Burges and Horizon look like they will be for real, while Austin appears to be on the way back. Del Valle should climb back up the rankings. Traditional powers Coronado and Canutillo are struggling to find offense.

As far as excitement goes week one of the high school season had plenty of it.  Franklin took San Angelo Central to five overtimes before falling 41-35.  The Horizon 'cardiac' Scorpions stung El Paso high 21-20 in overtime.  The Midland teams are up to their old tricks.  Lee rolled Coronado 42-3 in El Paso while the Midland Bulldogs drubbed Del Valle 44-14.
