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

Gadsden City football ending 2026 season with hope for what's ahead

TRUSSVILLE — Sam Sollie and Dylan Perry did about all they could do in Gadsden City football's attempt to pull off a surprise win over Hewitt-Trussville to open the AHSAA playoffs on Friday, Nov. 6. The Titans raced out to an 11-point lead in the second quarter, as Sollie threw for two scores and the Titan defense was able to force back-to-back interceptions to set up the scoring drives. The Titans took a 4-point lead into the half as thoughts of an upset started to go through the visitor sideline. The second half saw a shootout ensue, with Sollie finding Perry on three touchdowns, from 59, 54 and 29 yards out but ultimately Jack Floyd was able to lift the Huskies to a 38-35 win with a three-touchdown night of his own. Sollie threw for 274 yards, 166 of those to Perry as the defense forced three turnovers. "We missed a lot of opportunities tonight," Gadsden City coach Ali Smith said. "I felt like we left a lot of points out there. We missed a lot of tackles, but its things we can build on. Pretty much everyone on the offense and defensive side will be back next year." The
