This was a REAL killer to put together because I had to go team by team, figure out which years they competed in 3A and then compile their win-loss records for those seasons only so I wouldn't be surprised if there were a few errors here and there. Let me know if you spot any and I'll be happy to correct them.

This is the cumulative records of all teams that have been classified as 3A from 1980-2007 counting ONLY the records from those seasons. 342 different schools have competed at least one season in 3A UIL football competition over the past 28 years. As 28 is only divisible evenly by relatively few numbers I divided it up into 4 periods of 7 seasons each which seemed to fit nicely into distinct eras of particular teams' dominance.

1980-1986: the Daingerfield era, losing only 3 games in 5 seasons playing in 3A, winning 2 state titles and making a 3rd final with a 95% win percentage
1987-1993: the Southlake Carroll era, winning more games in a 7 season period than any other team in Texas High School football history past or present, and collecting 3 state titles.
1994-2000: the Sealy/Commerce era, with 5 state titles (Commerce got an additional one in 2001) and 8 state finals appearances between the two of them
2001-2007: ???? there hasn't been one really dominant program over the most recent 7 year period. Liberty Hill and Everman have two titles each. Gilmer has the most wins.

The following table is divided into 5 parts. The first is cumulative win totals over the entire 28 year period from 1980-2007. Then each 7 year block of time is covered individually. The column labelled "Yrs 3A" is the number of seasons each program competed as a 3A school during the time period listed.

At the end of the post you will find a single graphic listing all 342 schools ever to compete in 3A since 1980 ranked by total wins. The total number of seasons playing as a 3A school is listed in the far right column. This is just meant as a reference for those interested.

Maybe this belongs on the "Best teams that DIDN'T win a 3A State Title since 1980" thread because I would imagine every possible candidate is listed. This is every team that won at least 11 games in a season in the 3A classification since 1980. It's interesting how the number of teams that achieved this ballooned after 1998 when the UIL split 3A into two playoff divisions.

I'm still a little puzzled why there were so many 11-win teams from 1999-2004 and then the number seems to have decreased back down since then.

Liberty Hill has the longest current streak with 5 consecutive 11-win seasons and Cuero is right behind with 4.

great work!

At a glance, how many 11-1 teams were there in 07, Giddings isn't on your list but is one for sure.

I only counted on-the-field wins so Giddings would only be 10-1 for 2007

#42 is looking pretty decent :)

... I guess we've taken a bad slide down the rankings after the last 3 years though :(
