Quarterback Luke Bishop scored on the winning touchdown on 6-yard run in the final minute and defending champion Aledo won its fifth state title in six years, beating Temple 49-45 in the Class 5A Division I championship game Saturday.
Bishop had a hand in four touchdowns -- two passing and two rushing -- and directed a 13-play drive to the winning score with 47 seconds left. He also had a game-clinching interception of Temple's Chad President as time expired.
Aledo (15-1) won three straight state titles from 2009-11 before missing the title game in 2012. Bishop was the championship game offensive MVP for the second year in a row. Bishop's older brother, Matt Bishop, was offensive MVP when he scored five touchdowns in Aledo's 2011 victory.
Donald Lee put Temple (13-2) ahead 45-42 midway through the fourth quarter with a touchdown catch on a double-reverse pass, grabbing the ball in the end zone after a pair of Aledo defenders bobbled it.
Temple was making its eighth appearance in a title game, but first since 1992.
Aledo led 35-17 at halftime after Bishop ran 55 yards for a touchdown and threw a 5-yard scoring pass to Austin Summerhill. Larry Brown had a 31-yard interception return for a touchdown.
