Fall Friday nights in Louisiana always feature some of the nation’s top young football players, and this year will once again see a wealth of talented student-athletes represent their schools and communities.
As part of our previews of the fast-approaching 2025 LHSAA season, Louisiana vs. All Y’all has selected preseason all-state teams to highlight several of The Boot’s elite standouts who appear poised for great performances ahead.
Two teams have been chosen — small schools (3A, 2A and 1A) and large schools (5A and 4A) — with each recognizing 31 first-team selections — 14 on offense, 14 on defense and three specialists — plus 19 honorable mentions.
Limiting to just 62 first-teamers and 100 total players in talent-rich Louisiana meant some challenging decisions, but underscores the elite nature of these rosters.
