While Bryant and Bentonville appear to be the cream of the crop in the early going of this high school football season in Arkansas, Greenwood is right there with them after narrowly escaping with a 43-42 win over Har-Ber.

Robinson also appears to be among the state's elite teams after their 35-16 victory over Lakeside.

Southside (Batesville) and Hot Springs enter the top 25 for the first time this season after they both defeated their opponents by three-plus touchdowns last week.
