No. 1 vs. No. 2 Super 25 showdown set for Saturday

No. 1 Southlake (Texas) Carroll made it look easy while No. 2 Northwestern (Miami) struggled. Still, both won to set up just the third No. 1-vs.-No. 2 showdown in USA TODAY Super 25 football history when they meet Saturday in Dallas in a nationally televised game (ESPNU, 7).

Southlake blew out Lake Highlands (Dallas) 42-10 Saturday as quarterback Riley Dodge passed for 331 yards and four touchdowns as the Dragons won their 49th game in a row.

Northwestern (2-0) struggled to hold the ball against Homestead (Fla.) on Friday. The Bulls, who trailed 15-14 at the half — a first for them since 2005 — had six turnovers in the 28-18 victory.

Overall, Super 25 teams went 21-2 last weekend: No. 11 Poly (Long Beach, Calif.) lost 20-7 to Birmingham (Lake Balboa, Calif.) and No. 12 Jenks (Okla.), the state's defending Class 6A state champ, lost 43-42 in overtime to Union in the 40th annual "Backyard Bowl."

In other action, Bryce Brown, projected to be the No. 1 recruit from the Class of 2009, ran for 187 yards and scored the first two touchdowns for Wichita (Kan.) East in the 21-0 victory against Dodge City.
