Week 2 of the USA TODAY Sports Super 25 high school football rankings welcomes two new teams to the mix, with Saguaro (Ariz.) and DeSoto (Texas) dropping out after tough losses to Bergen Catholic (N.J.) and St. Frances Academy (Md.), respectively.
Meanwhile, a handful of other teams continued to shine, leapfrogging the competition and making a solid push to the top of the list—where California powerhouses St. John Bosco and Mater Dei still hold strong.
