Game of the Week: 2 of Nations Top 25 Teams Face Off

We have two State Champions facing off tonight!  6A vs 5A Champs set to battle!

5A-6A teams kickoff their high school football seasons tonight.  In week one (week 5 overall for high school football in Texas) we are being treated to what should be a great game:  North Shore vs Shadow Creek

The North Shore Mustangs and the Shadow Creek Sharks are both ranked in the Top 25 in the nation by Max Preps.  Max Preps is full of Texas teams in their Top 25.  They have Shadow Creek at #23, and North Shore at #9.  A few weeks ago, they had Shadow Creek at #17 and North Shore at #2, but teams in other states that have already played a few games have jumped over them.

In Texas rankings, both teams are in the top 10 of Max Preps and DC Football rankings.  DC has North Shore as the #1 team in the state, while Max Preps has them at #2.  Shadow Creek has been floating between #5-9 in the rankings.  This will be one of only a few times that we will see two top 25 teams in the state play each other, and one of only two to three times until the playoffs that we see two top 25 teams in the nation face off.

North Shore is coming off back to back championships, (CLICK HERE for our North Shore article) and they are expected to go undefeated and win another UIL State Championship.  Their toughest challenge may come in this first game against Shadow Creek. The Sharks, and Head Coach Brad Butler, are coming off an undefeated season and won their schools first ever state title last year, beating Denton Ryan 28-22 for the 5A D1 UIL State Championship.

This game should be incredible!  We favor each of these teams to win state titles this year and whoever wins will likely climb up into the top 5 of the top teams in the national rankings.
