Photo by Matt GarnettWe've known since May that the Texas high school football state championships will be played at AT&T Stadium in Arlington in December. Now, we know which games will be played when. The UIL announced the full schedule for the 2016 Texas high school football state championship games on Wednesday, with 12 state championship games taking place from Wednesday, December 14 to Saturday, December 17. The festival of football will kick off at 4 p.m. on December 14 with the Class 1A Division II state title game as six-man football returns to AT&T Stadium for the first time since 2014. The weekend will conclude with the Class 6A Division I championship at 8 p.m. on December 17. All games will be broadcast live on Fox Sports Southwest. The UIL decided to keep the schedule largely the same, with the exception of adding the six-man games on Wednesday and flipping the order of Division I and Division II games. This also means that Thursday, December 15 will once again feature a quadruple-header of Class 2A and 3A title games, despite the 3A Division II game last year stretching into the early morning hours of Friday. Tickets are available now on Ticketmaster.com.
