Twelve Houston-area teams enter the Class 6A playoffs ranked in the final edition of the Texas high school football rankings for 2025.

Ridge Point, the state's No. 3 team in Class 6A, appears to be headed for its first undefeated regular season since 2016. The Panthers have outscored their opponents by 410 points and have perhaps the most talented roster, top to bottom, in the Houston area this season.

The Summer Creek Bulldogs (8-1, 5-1) will travel to Galena Park ISD Stadium in Houston on Friday for a high-stakes Class 6A Region III District 23 showdown against the North Shore Mustangs (8-1, 6-0).

After winning just two games in the regular season, QB Canon Day and Houston football bounced back to shock Germantown in the TSSAA football playoffs.

We saw that spirit on full display last Friday night, when the fate of three football programs came down to the flip of a coin.

The 2025 Texas high school state football playoffs begin this week, running Thursday through Saturday. Here are bi-district pairings and game information for the Class 6A, 5A and 4A playoffs.
