One of the top teams in Texas, regardless of the class size, will be done with football by Friday night.

Southlake Carroll and Prosper meet in a Class 6A Division II Texas high school football regional semifinal tonight, at 7 p.m., at Choctaw Stadium in Arlington.

Southlake is 12-0 on the season and is coming off a 15-1 campaign in 2024 — ending with a loss in the Class 6A Division II finals. The Dragons are the No. 1-ranked team in the SB Live Texas football poll, while Prosper was No. 10. 

A return trip has to go through a talented Prosper team, which is 11-1.

The Eagles were in the Class 6A Division I playoffs last year, but dropped down this year when Plano made the playoffs. Because Plano and Allen has more students, both went to the 6A Division I bracket.

The only loss this year for Prosper is a 1-point defeat against Allen, ranked No. 2 in the state. 

What to know?

Southlake’s is well known for its offense and the numbers back it up. The Dragons average 475 yards per game and has more than 5,600 yards of total offense this season. The defense? Pretty salty too. 

After giving up a season-high 28 points against Keller on Oct. 3, the Dragons have given up 24 points in the six games that have followed.

Prosper is averaging 301 yards per game and has a combined 3,621 yards of offense. 

The Prosper defense is giving up 21.9 points per game, while Southlake’s average is 6.7 per game.

In terms of scoring, Prosper has more points this year — 633 to 626. That gives Prosper a slight edge, 52.7 points per game, while Southlake is 52.1 points per game. 

Dating back to 2004, the teams have played once. On Sept. 10, 2021, Southlake won 31-0.
