DevilDog Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 1999 Midland Lee The Rebels won three state championships in a row (1998-2000), but they only went undefeated once. Led by running back Cedric Benson, Lee went 15-0 and thoroughly handled Aldine Eisenhower, 42-21, for the state title. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilDog Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 2006 Southlake Carroll Carroll has won multiple state championships in various divisions, but this was their best. The Dragons went 16-0 and their average margin of victory was 44-8. But equally as impressive is the list of teams they beat along the way, including Dallas Lake Highlands and Shreveport’s Evangel Christian in non-district, and then through the playoffs they beat Lewisville, Euless Trinity, Odessa Permian, Colleyville Heritage, Allen and Austin Westlake. Undoubtedly, the best Texas high school football game ever played, pitting both undefeated divisional 2005 State Champions from Texas UIL Class 5A; and quite possibly, the largest attended high school football game in Texas history. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevilDog Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 2013 Allen The Eagles won three-straight state titles with Kyler Murray at quarterback, but their best team was his junior year when Allen scored 807 points on the season and allowed 298. Allen bullied Pearland in the 5A Division I state championship, 63-28, before moving to 6A the next year and winning that Division I title. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilDog Posted March 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 2015 Katy If Daingerfield’s defense was the gold standard last millennium, then Katy’s 2015 team set it for the current days of teams throwing the ball all over the yard. Katy went 16-0 and allowed only 62 points all season. Katy, which shut out 10 opponents that year, put an exclamation point on the season by thumping Lake Travis, 34-7, for the 6A Division II state title. Damn they were so dominate a National Publication broke down that Defense for the Nation: Getting schooled by the most dominant defense of 2015 In an era dominated by spread offenses and well drilled machines, the 2015 Katy Tigers won a state championship at the highest level in a hotbed of spread offenses thanks to a suffocating defense. The result? Legendary dominance from the 2015 Tiger defense, an eighth state championship, and a free education to 3-4 defenses around the country courtesy of the Texas public school system. https://www.footballstudyhall.com/2016/3/21/11264258/the-best-texas-high-school-defense-in-history-Katy-Tigers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have, but that’s still fast especially seeing that Webb was doing fine at Rockwall and had a great class coming up too.

ChimpGrip Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 On 3/29/2020 at 10:30 PM, DevilDog said: here’s the breakdown of the top 10, and let the debate begin (or continue): I will attempt to provide footage of each in a playoff game. 1956 Abilene One of the first “mythical national champions,” Abilene went 14-0 with its third of four-consecutive state championships. Abilene went 14-0 and outscored its opponents by a 496-64 margin. They were named “Team of the 20th Century” by The Dallas Morning News. 1973 John Tyler Many regard Earl “The Tyler Rose” Campbell the greatest high school back of all-time in Texas, and he had tight end Ronnie Lee on this squad as well. Lee himself played in the NFL for 14 seasons. The Lions went 15-0 and beat a very good Austin Reagan team for the state title. 1983 Daingerfield This team had perhaps the best defense on the list, which puts them in this conversation, and the offense wasn’t too shabby. While going 16-0, Daingerfield outscored its opponents, 631-8 (not a typo), and had 14 shutouts, including 13 in a row to end the season. Its non-district opponents were Carthage, Kilgore and Gilmer. 1985 Houston Yates It’s a daunting task to beat a team that has five future NFL players on it, and the Yates Lions went 16-0 with that kind of talent. They scored 659 points and allowed just 79 on the season. To top it off, they destroyed defending state champion Odessa Permian, 37-0, for the Class 5A state title. 1989 Odessa Permian 16-0 (627-97) Of all the Permian state champion teams, this one was selected because of defense and an undefeated record. Just one year after losing to Dallas Carter in the famous “Friday Night Lights” game from the book and movie, the Panthers went 16-0 and rolled to a state championship. They scored 627 points on the season while collectively allowing just 97. 1996 Austin Westlake Before Drew Brees slung the ball at Purdue and began his NFL career, this future hall of famer directed the Chaps to a 16-0 record and 55-15 trouncing of Abilene Cooper for the state championship. Westlake averaged a little more than 41 points a game while giving up 11 per contest. 1999 Midland Lee The Rebels won three state championships in a row (1998-2000), but they only went undefeated once. Led by running back Cedric Benson, Lee went 15-0 and thoroughly handled Aldine Eisenhower, 42-21, for the state title. 2006 Southlake Carroll Carroll has won multiple state championships in various divisions, but this was their best. The Dragons went 16-0 and their average margin of victory was 44-8. But equally as impressive is the list of teams they beat along the way, including Dallas Lake Highlands and Shreveport’s Evangel Christian in non-district, and then through the playoffs they beat Lewisville, Euless Trinity, Odessa Permian, Colleyville Heritage, Allen and Austin Westlake. 2013 Allen The Eagles won three-straight state titles with Kyler Murray at quarterback, but their best team was his junior year when Allen scored 807 points on the season and allowed 298.

SeaShells21 Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 As I stated on the, “Birth of Superteams thread” I’m creating a list of overall top matchups that a state has faced and will eventually add a points system to it. The team ranking at the end of the season is what was used to rank the teams and the National Championship list from Wikipedia was used to name a team National Champion. I’m also wondering if there is a simpler way of displaying this here? Lastly, If you all know of any other programs who have faced Texas that would fit in the list, please feel free to share. *{Only top 10 listed until completion}* National Champion: 🏆 #1 State ranked: ⭐ State Champion:🥇 Runner-up:🥈 Semifinalist:🥉 Texas #1 - Bishop Gorman (15-0)🥇🏆 ⭐ 2016 #1 - De La Salle (13-1)🥇⭐ 2015 #4 - S.T. Aquinas (15-0)🥇🏆 ⭐ 2010 #5 - Bellevue (15-0)🥇⭐ 2012 #9 - IMG Academy (9-0) ⭐ 2015 #11 - Plant (12-3)🥈2010 #15 - Booker T.W.
