National High School Football Rankings: Top 25 teams – Oct. 13

The latest weekend of high school football is in the books after games across the country, and the national top-25 rankings are now updated.

The top two teams remain the same after convincing wins over the weekend. But there’s been major shakeup elsewhere after some big wins and surprising upset losses.

LATEST TOP 25 SCORES FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY

Below are the top 25 teams in the country heading into the third week of October:

The On3 Massey Ratings — which were officially used during the BCS era and have generated college high school sports team rankings since 1995 — rank sports teams by analyzing game outcomes, strength of schedule and margin of victory.

1. Mater Dei (Calif.)

Previous Rank: No. 1

The Monarchs remain atop the national rankings after convincing wins over California top-10 foes Santa Margarita Catholic and Servite in back-to-back weeks. It won’t get any easier though, as three more ranked matchups await over the next few weeks, including a huge battle with No. 3 St. John Bosco on November 25.

2. Duncanville (Texas)

Previous Rank: No. 2

Duncanville passed its biggest test of the year with flying colors, rolling past then-No. 8 DeSoto 42-20 on Friday to get revenge for last year’s loss. The Panthers’ offense is rolling behind five-stars Keelon Russell and Dakorien Moore, and it’s unlikely they’ll be tested again until the playoffs.

3. St. John Bosco (Calif.)

Previous Rank: No. 4 (+1)

Bosco moves up one spot in this week’s rankings after a 13-0 slugfest win at home against Santa Margarita Catholic. The Braves’ offense has been held in check the past two weeks, but they’ve only allowed a total of 10 points in their past two games.

4. Atascocita (Texas)

Previous Rank: No. 3 (-1)

The Eagles cruised to a dominant 53-3 win over Humble on Friday night to move to 6-0 and continue their early season roll. After a matchup with Kingwood this week, a huge showdown awaits with No. 3 North Shore on November 25.

5. North Shore (Texas)

Previous Rank: No. 5

North Shore hung 70 points on winless Goose Creek Memorial on Thursday, their first of two straight games against teams who have yet to win this season. After facing 0-6 Channelview next week, the Atascocita game looms large.

6. Southlake Carroll (Texas)

Previous Rank: No. 6

The Dragons’ offense continues to shred defenses, with Carroll now scoring at least 44 points in six of its seven wins this season. Much like Duncanville, they aren’t expected to be tested again in the regular season.

7. North Crowley (Texas)

Previous Rank: No. 7

North Crowley’s offense has been equally as impressive this fall, with the latest example a 66-7 win over Lake Ridge on Friday night. They are heavily favored in each of their final four games, per the On3 Massey Ratings, and should go into the playoffs 10-0.

8. Bishop Gorman (Nev.)

Previous Rank: No. 9 (+1)

The Gaels continue to run roughshod over their West Coast opponents. Nevada’s No. 2 team, Arbor View, was the latest victim on Thursday in a 49-14 blowout. They will face three more state-ranked teams this year but are heavily favored in each matchup.

9. IMG Academy (Fla.)

Previous Rank: No. 10 (+1)

The Ascenders are in the second of two straight bye weeks after beating No. 2 Venice on October 4. Next up they’ll face Illinois’ No. 1 team, East St. Louis, on October 25.

10. DeSoto (Texas)

Previous Rank: No. 8 (-2)

DeSoto suffered its second loss of the season against a loaded Duncanville team, but the Eagles still remain one of the nation’s best teams. They are heavily favored in each of their last four games before the playoffs begin next month.
