Let’s talk the best games in district play. There are many factors to consider, who plays who, who’s hot at the time, who’s got a chance at making those deep playoff runs. Here’s (arguably) the most important district game in every single district in class 6A

  1. El Paso Eastwood vs. El Paso El Dorado – Eastwood started off hot before a loss to Permian, and El Dorado is looking to take them out of the driver’s seat in district 1-6A.
  2. Odessa Permian vs. San Angelo Central – There’s not much to explain here – this will be the equivalent of a third round playoff game, just played in October.
  3. Abilene vs. Keller Fossil Ridge – Despite the early-season loss to San Angelo Central, this is still a good Abilene team. They’ll look to upset Fossil Ridge, the favorite in 3-6A.
  4. Arlington Lamar vs. Mansfield – This battle of underrated teams in Region I won’t disappoint.
  5. Southlake Carroll vs. Euless Trinity – Southlake has had a little bit of a tough start to their season. A win over Trinity could create some serious waves in how the playoffs play out.
  6. Allen vs. Denton Guyer – The powerful Denton Guyer offense will have their hands full at Allen.
  7. Cedar Hill vs. Desoto – If Cedar Hill had beaten Bishop Gorman in Week One, this district game would’ve been played between two top 25 national teams. All the same, it’s still an intense rivalry.
  8. Killeen Ellison vs. Waco Midway – Midway’s started 1-2, but it’s mostly due to the caliber of teams they’ve been playing. Ellison’s hot start will be challenged in district play.
  9. Coppell vs. Richardson Berkner – Coppell’s only loss is to an Allen team they played admirably. In a relatively weak district 9-6A, this game might decide the district championship.
  10. Rowlett vs. Sachse – These two undefeated teams have a big chance to create some real momentum during district play. The winner of this game will be in the driver’s seat for the district title.
  11. Tyler Lee vs. Tyler John Tyler – Anything can happen in this classic crosstown rivalry game. John Tyler’s Bryson Smith is worth the price of admission.
  12. The Woodlands vs. Lufkin – The Woodlands is becoming a trendy pick to make a deep playoff run. We’ll find out how good they are when the Pack comes to town.
  13. Cedar Ridge vs. Round Rock Westwood – Without a doubt, Cedar Ridge is the best kept secret in 6A. They’ve only given up 10 points this season, and don’t look to give up much against Round Rock Westwood.
  14. Austin Bowie vs. Austin Akins – Bowie looks to take their revamped team to a title. In order to do so, they have to go through Akins.
  15. Houston Stratford vs. Klein Collins – Collins’s only loss is to Katy in overtime. Stratford will provide the stiffest competition in district play.
  16. Spring vs. Spring Westfield – Westfield is 0-3, but they’ve played stiff competition. This game will be the best game in a comparatively weak district.
  17. Houston Cypress Ranch vs. Houston Cypress Ridge – This duel of currently undefeated teams might decide more than a district title – important playoff seedings will be on the line.
  18. Houston Lamar vs. Houston Chavez – Houston Lamar is ridiculously talented, but that talent will be put to the test at Chavez.
  19. Katy vs. Katy Cinco Ranch – One of the kings of Texas High School Football is looking vulnerable, and Cinco Ranch is chomping at the bit to get a piece of the champ.
  20. Fort Bend Kempner vs. Fort Bend Ridge Point – This weekend’s clash of 3-0 teams will put one of these two schools in the district title driver’s seat.
  21. Galena Park North Shore vs. Atascocita – Atascocoita has the talent to challenge one of the big names in Texas High School Football.
  22. La Porte vs. Pasadena Memorial – La Porte has struggled so far this season, but look for those struggles to fade away by the time they play Pasadena Memorial.
  23. Pearland vs. George Ranch – Pearland has the talent to overcome their slow start, and George Ranch is better than their two touchdown loss to Dickinson.
  24. Dickinson vs. Friendswood – If the Gators can keep up the momentum from their hot start, they might blaze their way through this district.
  25. Lake Travis vs. Austin Westlake – If Westlake QB Sam Ehlinger is back, this one could be a game for the ages.
  26. San Antonio Madison vs. San Antonio Reagan – Madison has rebounded from an embarrassing early-season loss to Steele, and Reagan is looking solid in nondistrict competition.
  27. Cibolo Steele vs. Converse Judson – Judson is one of the hottest teams in the state, and Steele will provide tough competition with dynamic quarterback Xavier Martin.
  28.  O’Connor vs. Clark – If Clark can continue hitting their stride, they’ll challenge O’Connor.
  29. Eagle Pass vs. Del Rio – Del Rio needs to keep their solid start going if they want to win this district.
  30. La Joya Juarez-Lincon vs. McAllen Rowe – Rowe’s hot start will be challenged by a sneaky good Juarez-Lincoln team.
  31. Edinburg Enconomedes vs. Edinburg Vela – Vela has some impressive wins on their resume already, and a season-ending matchup with Enconomedes might decide the district title.
  32. San Benito vs. Harlingen South – The biggest threat to San Benito this year isn’t Harlingen, it’s Harlingen South.
