High School On SI<\/p>\n
The third ranking for the\u00a0Texas<\/a>\u00a0high school\u00a0football\u00a0<\/a>season is out.\u00a0<\/p>\n This was another week of changes in the poll. Six teams fell out of the top 25, the same as the week before. However, don\u2019t be surprised to see some of those teams get back in the poll after they get things figured out. There are some headscratchers, though, with some traditional powers still winless heading into Week 3.\u00a0<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a look at who we think will be the Top 25 teams in the state heading into Week 3 for UIL teams and Week 4 for the private schools.<\/p>\n TEXAS PRESEASON<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0WK1<\/a> |\u00a0WK2 |<\/p>\n 1.
