15 Nov
Summary
- Two undefeated Georgia teams, Grayson and Buford, have a viable path to the national championship
- California teams like St. John Bosco and Centennial could also contend if Georgia teams stumble
- Texas powers Southlake Carroll and Allen face an uphill battle, needing help from other states
As the 2025 high school football season heads into the playoffs, the race for the national championship is heating up. Two undefeated Georgia teams, Grayson and Buford, have emerged as the top contenders for the title.
According to the analysis, if either Grayson or Buford wins the Georgia Class 6A state championship, they would likely be the frontrunners for the national championship. The Georgia playoffs are considered one of the toughest in the country, and a potential matchup between the two teams in the semifinals could decide the state and national title.
However, California teams are also in the mix, with St. John Bosco, Centennial, and Sierra Canyon all having a chance to climb the rankings if the Georgia teams stumble. These California squads would need the Georgia teams to lose in order to have a realistic shot at the national title.
Meanwhile, the Texas powerhouses of Southlake Carroll and Allen face an uphill battle. While both teams have had strong starts to the postseason, they will likely need the teams in Georgia and California to lose in order to have a chance at the national championship.
The article also notes that current No. 1 team IMG Academy has effectively eliminated itself from national title contention by canceling its matchup with No. 4 St. Frances Academy, leaving the door open for the other contenders.
