Whataburger Team of the Week: Bridgeland Creates Chaos in District 23-6A With Signature Win vs. Cy Ranch
You’d be hard-pressed to find a win more consequential or astonishing than Bridgeland’s 31-14 victory over Cypress Ranch last Friday.
Coming off a tough 56-35 loss to Ridge Point two weeks earlier, the Bears used their bye week to prepare for a crucial district opener against a red-hot Cy Ranch squad that entered the matchup unbeaten at 3-0. Then, everything changed. Bridgeland handed the Mustangs their first loss of the season, pulling off the upset on the road while spoiling CRHS’ Homecoming Night.
As has been the case for much of the fall, Kash Schwab seized control of the game, finding the end zone four times. The senior tailback and UNLV commit accounted for all four of Bridgeland’s touchdowns — a feat that also speaks to the work of the offensive line — while potentially altering the trajectory of the district standings in the process.
Senior QB Taylon Villanueva adds another dynamic element to head coach Lonnie Madison’s offense, which is currently averaging 33 points per game. Villanueva has the athleticism to unlock the attack’s full potential, and now it will come down to execution as the season progresses.
The Bears’ defense continues to make plays when it matters, headlined by safeties Braiden Graves (Kansas commit) and Camden Buchanan on the back end, while Jordyn Sims and Regan Fodje generate pressure up front.
At 3-1, Bridgeland controls its own fate moving forward, though that will be put to the test by a demanding stretch of district opponents. The Bears face Cy Springs this Saturday before taking on George Ranch and Fulshear in the weeks ahead.

FIELD POSITION: 2026 VYPE DFW Football Rankings — Week 6 | Allen Keeps Rolling; Martin Enters Top 20
The first half of the regular season is officially in the rearview mirror, and the Week 6 rankings come with a rare sight: a sizable portion of the region’s heavy-hitters are set for a well-earned midseason bye.
Allen continues to validate its consensus No. 1 ranking in Texas, with the Eagles improving to 5-0 after another one-sided victory. Averaging nearly 50 points per game, Allen has shown little indication of slowing down as district play moves forward. North Crowley, Waxahachie, Coppell and Southlake Carroll are also riding strong starts, while Duncanville gets a boost after blanking formidable district opponent Red Oak, 42-0.
The 5A ranks feature plenty of movement as well. Lone Star remains unbeaten at 4-0 after outlasting Melissa in a 35-30 classic, while Argyle also moves up following a convincing win over Grapevine. Anna, Celina, Timberview and McKinney North continue to add depth to an increasingly competitive classification.
Perhaps the most impactful result of the week, however, came from Arlington Martin. The Warriors’ 35-21 victory over perennial state contender Aledo could prove to be a defining moment this fall, and their perfect 5-0 start earns them a debut in the Top 20 alongside McKinney North (4-0). With most of the top teams taking the week off, the spotlight now shifts to those still in action.
