Prep Ticket Texas 4A Top 10: Week 6

1. Copperas Cove (5-0) - The Bulldawgs remain at the top of our rankings after a bye week. Next Game: Oct. 12 vs Brownwood

2. La Marque (6-0) - The Cougars grab win number six after defeating Angleton 32-14. Michael Patterson ran the opening kickoff back 88 yards for a touchdown to give La Marque the early lead in what turned out to be a rain-soaked game that saw 10 fumbles and two interceptions from the two teams. Next Game: Oct. 12 at Friendswood

3. Waco (4-1) - The Lions are coming off a much-needed bye week. Hopefully their nagging injuries have healed up a bit as they begin district play this week. Next Game: Oct. 12 at University

4. Stephenville (5-0) - The Yellow Jackets stay in our number four spot after a 42-10 win over Alvarado. Stephenville, along with the three teams above them, has made a strong case as a state championship contender at the halfway point of the season. Next Game: Oct. 12 at Joshua

5. Wichita Falls Rider (5-1) - The Raiders return to the top five for the first time since Week 2, the week before their only loss of the season to #4 Stephenville. Rider defeated Guyer 48-10. It was once again the dynamic backfield of Jurell Thompson (146 yards, three touchdowns), and Damien Washington (117 yards, one touchdown) leading the way. Next Game: Oct. 12 vs Denison

6. Nederland (5-0) - Good things happen when you just keep winning. Look at the Bulldogs, up three spots this week after a 40-29 win at Beaumont Central. Kirby Bellow has done a great job filling in at quarterback for injured starter Ryan Sampere. Bellow threw three touchdowns in this week's win. Next game: Oct. 12 vs Port-Neches Groves 

7. Highland Park (5-0) - The Scots jump into our top 10 at the seventh spot after a 42-21 win over Mesquite Poteet. The Scots got some bad news last week when they learned quarterback Dutch Crews would be out for eight weeks with a broken collarbone, but backup Winston Gamso had a nice season debut, throwing for 257 yards and two touchdowns. Next Game: Oct. 12 at Rockwall Heath

8. Lake Travis (4-1) - The Cavaliers remain in our eighth spot after surviving a tough game against Vista Ridge. The Rangers had a chance to win in the final seconds, but, Lake Travis held on for a 33-28 win. Garrett Gilbert threw for 270 yards and three touchdowns while Chris Aydam rushed for 165 yards and a score. Next Game: Oct. 12 vs Lampasas

9. Everman (5-0) - The Bulldogs debut in our top 10 after taking down previous #6 Aledo 35-28. Everman has a very talented backfield, and they showed it off last week as Clarence Jennings rusehd for 161 yards and three touchdowns while Sedrick Harris contributed 157 yards and a score. Next Game: Oct. 12 vs Mineral Wells

10. New Braunfels (5-0) - We fill out this week's Top 10 with another new face, the unbeaten Unicorns. New Braunfels took down Del Valle 21-16 last week, and the defense helped them escape the upset with two key fourth-quarter interceptions. Next Game: Oct. 12 vs Hays

Best of the Rest:

Dickinson (6-0)

Corpus Christi Calallen (5-0)

Kerrville Tivy (5-0)

Brownwood (4-1)
