Football highlights that you have to watch again!
The Week 5 edition of Social Buzz of the Week might be tough to top as high school football enters October action. One-handed grabs, all-out dives for the pylon, Derrick Henry-like stiff arms, and a hook-and-ladder miracle that went 73 yards for the score and comeback win.
To the tape!

Friday night football didn’t waste much time when it came to producing buzz-worthy moments across the country.
From a bad snap that turned into major gain for Lexington Catholic (Ky.) to Chippewa Valley’s (Mich.) Shamar Heard coming down with an Andrew Schuster DIME in the back of the end zone, these were our favorite highlights making the rounds on social media.

When the talent is this good, we’re willing to overlook that it’s not technically high school.
The Matt Leinart Flag Football League, in conjunction with the NFL Flag Football program, is a flag football league for kids in 1st–8th grade, emphasizing community fun.
But that doesn’t mean it’s short on talent — far from it.
The talented girls in the league are the stars of the show on this week’s Social Buzz.

Down 18 points at halftime, Arch Manning led Isidore Newman (La.) on an incredible comeback over Benton (La.), with the Texas Longhorns commit providing plenty of highlights that had social media buzzing.
Not to be outshined, though, was Hoban’s Lamar Sperling, who shook and shimmied like a young Barry Sanders on his way to 232 yards rushing and a big win over in-state foe St. Ignatius (Ohio).
And don’t overlook Belfry’s (Ky.) Caden Woolum, because if you miss him —as evident in the video—the chances of catching up are slim.
By the way, if any NFL teams need a kicker, watch the end, then give Skyler Davis a ring.

To most teams, 476 yards rushing and eight touchdowns would be an incredible night on offense. Maybe two or even three nights.
But when that offensive output comes from one player? From one game?
Yep, UCLA commit Roderick Robinson II is not your typical back — made evident by the power and the breakaway speed the Lincoln (San Diego, Calif.) talent displayed during his record-setting night on the ground.

Another trio of social media highlights featuring all the shakes, jukes and jolts?
Here’s the social buzz that caught the USA TODAY High School Sports staff’s eye heading into a new week of action…
Homestead’s (Fla.) Richard Dandridge leads it off with an ankle-breaking display of agility complemented by impressive speed.
Chris Johnson Jr.’s clip? We had to check the controls to ensure it wasn’t stuck in fast-forward mode. (No surprise, the Dillard (Fla.) standout took gold at Florida’s 3A track meet in the 100- and 200-meter dash.)
And finally, we have Texas commit Cedric Baxter (Edgewater High School), who hit the brakes and seemingly made all 11 defenders miss at one point during his epic scamper to the end zone. And he sticks the landing, too!

Take a minute, football fans, and let’s catch up on some of the best social-media buzz that took the crown as our favorite highlights from the past week—a week that included a Uvalde High School football win that’ll give you goosebumps.
Before that fitting finale, though, we’d be amiss not to let the big guy from Bergen Catholic, Sydir Mitchell, open up the watch party by taking a fumble to the house after Elijah Kinsler’s massive hit on the quarterback.
You’re up, No. 90 — let’s role!

Five laterals?!
Eleven seconds left. Down by two points. Only the kickoff was left to decide the game between North Cobb Christian (Ga.) and Wesleyan (Ga.) …
Five laterals—FIVE! Laterals!—later, not only did the Eagles take the kickoff to the house for six and pull off a miraculous win, but they are now easily in the running for play of the year in high school football.

The Notre Dame game against Florida State has come and gone but when your offensive line plays like it did Saturday night and you walk out with a 42-26 win over a traditional powerhouse program like Florida State, you can’t help but be happy as a fan even days later.
As we get ready for No. 4 Notre Dame and 1-3 Louisville on Saturday we can take our final look back at the win over the Seminoles with the official ICON highlights that were put together by the Notre Dame digital team.

Noteworthy in this is how open Brian Kelly is about the Irish not playing their finest of games yet still walking out with a win that wasn’t exactly compelling besides in regards to the point spread down the stretch.
Notre Dame returns to action on Saturday afternoon when they host Louisville at Notre Dame Stadium. Kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m. ET and can be seen on NBC.
