Week 2 of the Texas High School Football season and with that it's time to look at the top games across the San Antonio and Austin area this week.

Hutto vs Liberty Hill
This to me may just be the game of the week for a couple of reasons and it is because of both of the schools in this matchup. First let's look at Hutto. Last week they had an extremely impressive win of San Marcos 46-21. In that game their offense could not be stopped. Gary Choice III had 163 yards receiving, Alex Green tallied 127 yards and QB Will Hammond was 19/25 for 329 yards and 4 touchdowns. But even more impressive was their defensive outing against the Rattlers. As with most teams the play Liberty Hill, if your defense is good so are your chances against Liberty Hill. That holds true to start the year as the Panthers put up over 300 yards rushing against Wagner. Joe Pitchford led the way with 152 yards and will look to do more of the same against the Hippos. But with all the numbers aside here is why this game is the top to watch for me. Both these teams, I feel, have a chance to make a run this year. We know the Panthers came up short last season against South Oak Cliff in the championship game and a convincing win here could go a long way for their title hopes this season (especially after South Oak Cliff's strong showing against Duncanville last week). For Hutto, this is a team I'm going to have on my radar all season. I feel like Coach Compton has something special building up in Hutto and even though Liberty Hill is a 5A opponent a win here goes a long way in showing they are someone to take seriously this year, especially with Judson and Steele on their schedule.
