FIELD POSITION: 2026 VYPE DFW Football Rankings — Pre-Playoff Edition | The Road to State Starts Here

District dominance only gets you so far. For the Dallas-Fort Worth area's top contenders, the real measure of championship potential begins now.

Allen (10-0) and North Crowley (10-0) have maintained their grip on the top two spots, while Lewisville (10-0) has ascended to No. 3, giving the region three undefeated heavyweights atop the hierarchy.

The perfect records don't end there. Anna, Lone Star, Martin and Timberview have also completed unbeaten regular seasons, establishing themselves as formidable threats in their respective classifications.

Elsewhere, Waxahachie (9-1), DeSoto (8-2) and Prosper (9-1) round out the Top 6, while traditional powers South Oak Cliff, Southlake Carroll and Duncanville enter the playoff picture with plenty to prove.

The regular-season résumé only tells part of the story. What happens from here will define the rest.
