Texas football playoffs: Analyzing paths for Aledo, North Crowley, Carroll, more
The UIL Texas high school football playoffs are here. See analysis breaking down potential playoff paths and top storylines to watch: Can anyone challenge North Crowley? North Crowley (10-0, 7-0), ranked No. 1 in Class 6A by Dave Campbell’s Texas Football, will be a considerable favorite the entirety of the playoffs. But just because teams are expected to win, doesn’t mean it always happens. North Crowley still has to stay healthy, execute and avoid the upset against some of Texas’ top squads. In addition, a potential regional final matchup against No. 10 Longview could be in store. The state championship will likely be the toughest game for whatever team makes it out of the Region 1 and 2 side, as No. 4 Houston King (9-1) or No. 5 Ridge Point (10-0) could be waiting. A matchup against No. 2. Allen (10-0), a team in the Division I bracket that has a case for best in Texas football, won’t happen. Why Southlake Carroll could be dangerous If North Crowley comes out of Region 2, it could rematch No. 16 Southlake Carroll (8-2), a team that will likely provide a much tougher challenge than in nondistrict play, when the Dragons fell to

Texas football powerhouse out of playoffs after court ruling
Just a few days ago, Argyle Liberty Christian (TX) announced that it would be seeking legal action against the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS) decision to ban the Warriors from postseason play . On Tuesday, a Denton County Courthouse denied the school's request for a temporary restraining order. Charles Baggarly of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported that the decision was announced after several hours of deliberation. The ruling keeps Liberty Christian out of the TAPPS Division I postseason. According to Baggarly, 362nd Judicial District Court Judge Bruce McFarling ruled that TAPPS did not do anything illegal or against public policy.
