Cabot did not skip a beat coming off a huge victory and took care of the mightily struggling Tigers.

The Bruins scored over 60 points for the second week in a row during a road trip to the River Valley.

The Tigers refused to lose after having to rally and got revenge on last season’s loss to the Purple Dogs.

A Wolves offense that was averaging over 40 points per game in the last three contests was grounded in a tough environment on the road.

8. Fayetteville (4-3) lost to Bentonville 31-30 (OT)

The Purple Dogs led 20-10 at the beginning of the third quarter but fell just short in a dogfight. They have lost their three games by a combined five points.

It may have been closer than they wanted, but the Rockets keep winning and have continued to display arguably the state’s top defense.

Beebe hung tough for as long as it could but as they have done all year, the Senators were able to run away with it and are on a six-game win streak.

The Patriots took a long road trip to the state line and left with a convincing victory as they now embark on the toughest stretch of the conference schedule.

Arkadelphia did not skip a beat coming off the bye week as the high-flying offense put up over 50 points for the second game in a row.

The Warriors put up their highest total of the season in a long road trip and have a favorable slate over the next two games.

After starting 5-0, the Panthers have now lost two in a row after playing what head coach Mark King called probably their worst first half of football all season against the Trojans.

23. Harding Academy (6-0)

The Wildcats were on a bye.

24. Nettleton (6-1) beat Southside Batesville 13-12
