As is to be expected in week zero of the high school season, almost nothing happened like it was supposed to. Some of our upset picks were way off -- like Gilmer vs. Jasper -- and some were spot on -- like Leander over Pflugerville. At least our ideas for top games of the week were pretty accurate -- aside from Cisco's surprising blowout over Early, each one turned out to be a must-watch affair.

Comments: North Shore held serve and kept its 70+ game regular season win streak alive, but early on it was Katy dictating the pace of the game, and the Tigers took a 6-0 lead into halftime. The Mustangs churned out 127 rushing yards in the second half, five of which came on Tracy Jones' third-quarter touchdown run, and the defense did the rest. Final score, North Shore 10, Katy 6.
