Survey: The best Texas HS football teams of all-time as UIL celebrates 100 years

The 2019 Texas high school football season marks the 100th year anniversary for UIL state title games and what better way to kick off a new year than to see the best teams of all-time.

As the season begins on Thursday, we thought it would be a fun idea to see which teams are the best all-time among Dallas-Fort Worth football players, coaches and members of the media.

We surveyed 30 people across the Metroplex. The most votes? 2014 Allen with senior quarterback, Heisman winner and No. 1 overall pick Kyler Murray received 5 votes. The Eagles finished No. 4 in the nation and beat Cypress Ranch 47-16 at AT&T Stadium to win state.

Southlake Carroll of 2005, came in second with 4 votes. The Dragons went 16-0 and won their second straight state title and third in four years under the direction of QB Greg McElroy, who went on to win a national title with Alabama and played in the NFL for three seasons.

Katy’s 2015 squad, which allowed 3.9 points per game, was third with 3 votes. It won a UIL record-tying 8th state title.

Here are the results:

1983 Daingerfield (2 votes)
