Big Country Super Centex Coastal BendToday: The Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex There’s maybe no greater debate among Texas high school football wonks than what constitutes Dallas-Fort Worth. We here at Dave Campbell’s Texas Football consider the borders of DFW to be as such: East to TerrellWest to AledoNorth to McKinney (though not including Denton)South to Corsicana And honestly, even that’s a little too generous for my tastes — it comprises 170 public 11-man football teams, by far the largest region in the state.
