West Alabama is taking on the AHSAA football postseason starting this week. The road to an AHSAA football state championship begins Friday, Nov. 6, as teams around the state kick off the first round of the 2026 playoffs. We've broken down 18 first-round playoff matchups featuring West Alabama teams. Here's who we predict will advance to the second round. RANKINGS: West Alabama high school football top 10 rankings ahead of AHSAA playoffs PATRIOTS: American Christian Academy football snaps 14-year losing streak to Northside West Alabama AHSAA football playoff predictions Stanhope Elmore at Hillcrest (Class 5A) Undefeated Hillcrest has been dominant all season, averaging more than 52 points per game. Stanhope Elmore has struggled against stronger competition, and the Patriots should have enough firepower and defensive strength to pull away early. Our Pick: Hillcrest 49, Stanhope Elmore 17 Central at Benjamin Russell (Class 5A) Central has the explosive offense in this matchup with Ole Miss commit Tra'Von Hall and athlete Anthony Dixon, but Benjamin Russell's defense has allowed just over 11 points per game. The Wildcats have been tested in their tough 2026 schedule, and they should take the edge in what could be a competitive first half. Our Pick: Benjamin

Our USA TODAY Network writers Jaeden Day, Maxwell Donaldson and Amelia Hurley got together to make their AHSAA football champion picks by class before the first round of the playoffs. Class 6A Jaeden Day, Montgomery Advertiser : Prattville over Thompson — Probably the biggest regular season high school football game came in Week 8 when Prattville beat Thompson 28-27.
