Region I

Lubbock Monterey – 0

Denton Ryan – IIII

Advantage: Denton Ryan, four votes to non

Reasoning: Lubbock Monterey has had a surprisingly good season, but Denton Ryan is extremely talented.

Lubbock Coronado – III

Colleyville Heritage – I

Advantage: Lubbock Coronado, three votes to one

Reasoning: Out of all the Lubbock schools, Coronado has been the best. We can definitely see them winning this game.

Region II

Mansfield Lake Ridge – 0

Highland Park – IIII

Advantage: Highland Park, four votes to none

Reasoning: Highland Park just shut down Frisco Independence. We feel confident that they can slow down another powerful offense in Mansfield Lake Ridge.

Mansfield Legacy – III

Frisco Wakeland – I

Advantage: Mansfield Legacy, three votes to one

Reasoning: It feels strange that Frisco Wakeland is the last Frisco team remaining in the playoffs, but here we are regardless. Legacy has too much firepower for the Wolverines.

Region III

Cedar Park – I

Manvel – III

Advantage: Manvel, three votes to one

Reasoning: This is the hardest one to pick. Cedar Park plays great defense, but we feel like Manvel is more battle-tested.

Temple – I

Port Arthur Memorial – III

Advantage: PA Memorial, three votes to one

Reasoning: Temple survived their most recent matchup with a Pflugerville Connally team that was crushed by Cedar Park, and Memorial has been playing excellent football, outside of a loss to Vidor.

Region IIII

Richmond Foster – IIII

Eagle Pass Winn – 0

Advantage: Richmond Foster, four votes to none

Reasoning: Foster is undefeated, and has definitely been underrated coming into the playoffs. Winn has been overlooked too, but we still feel like this one goes to Foster.

Dripping Springs – III

Mission Veterans Memorial – I

Advantage: Dripping Springs, three votes to one

Reasoning: After a thrilling victory over Angleton, it’s time to talk about Dripping Springs being legit contenders.
