It's hard to believe that it's already Week 8 of Texas High School Football. We have seen some of the best games in the Dallas-Fort Worth area so far, but there is still plenty of games left to be played. This week, VYPE DFW is back with some of the top games to watch in the DFW area and you're not going to want to take your eyes off of the action! Be sure you are tuning in on VYPE Live to catch some of our feature games through FloSports.


Frisco Lone Star (5-1, 4-0) vs. Frisco Wakeland (5-1, 4-1)

Frisco Lone Star vs. Frisco Wakeland - Friday, October 15 at 7 p.m.

Frisco Lone Star

Frisco Lone Star is entering Friday's game with an undefeated district record (4-0) over teams like Frisco Heritage, Frisco Independence, Frisco Reedy, and most recently an incredibly strong 72-16 victory over Denton. As usual, senior quarterback Garret Rangel is proving to be tough after an early-season injury. Having played in only four games, Rangel has thrown 11 touchdowns while racking up 971 yards. Also strong for Lone Star, though is senior running back Ashton Jeanty. The Boise State commit has posted 896 rushing yards and 19 touchdowns for the Rangers on 102 carries. The Rangers' offense is locked and loaded this season.

Frisco Wakeland

Wakeland has had a strong season. The Wolverine's only loss has come against reigning state champions Denton Ryan. The team is coming off of an impressive 49-0 shutout over Frisco Independence and will be looking to make waves against Lone Star on Friday. The Wolverines have a strong rushing team lead by Jared White who ranks second in rushing in the area's 5A athletes.

What To Expect:

The main thing to watch for is how Frisco Wakeland's defense can fare against such a strong, dominating Lone Star offense. It's going to be a tough game on both ends of the football, but the Rangers have proven over and over again that they want to be back on the biggest stage in Texas High School Football and they aren't willing to let anyone put a stop to that run.

THE HIERARCHY: VYPE DFW 2025 Week 10 Football Rankings; Allen gets an unforgettable district win

If there’s one theme running through this stretch of high school football, it’s the margin for error — or lack thereof. Each Friday seems to tighten the gap between contenders and challengers, and Week 9 delivered another round of razor-thin finishes that reshaped the pecking order across multiple districts.

Allen (8–0) survived one of those battles, edging Prosper 31–30 in a back-and-forth shootout that reaffirmed both programs’ staying power. Southlake Carroll (9–0) remains firmly atop the rankings after blanking Bell 49–0, while Duncanville and North Crowley handled business to keep pace among 6A’s elite.

THE HIERARCHY: VYPE DFW 2025 Week 9 Football Rankings; Guyer, RW-Heath, Coppell keep trending upwards

With the regular season nearing its final stretch, the region’s top programs have largely distinguished themselves from the masses, though a few late-season tests still loom large. Now, the challenge now lies in sustaining form and sharpening execution as the postseason draws near.

Southlake Carroll (8-0) continues to handle its business with trademark efficiency, while Allen (7-0) and Prosper (7-0) take center stage this week in a matchup that should determine the District 6-6A crown — and perhaps clarify the broader power balance in the Metroplex.

THE HIERARCHY: FINAL VYPE DFW Volleyball Rankings (Pre-Playoffs); McKinney North, Keller sneak into Top-5

Momentum means everything this time of year — and across the Dallas-area, plenty of programs are finding it at just the right moment. As of the end of October, the regional pecking order has begun to settle, though a few contenders still have time to make their case before brackets lock in.

Byron Nelson’s dominion is as prevalent as ever. The defending 6A-DII State Champions have stretched their win streak to 70 straight matches, standing at 34-0 while conceding only eight total sets in that span — three of those this fall. That kind of sustained precision has turned the Trophy Club trailblazers into a nationwide measuring stick.
