1000 Yard Guy’s 2025 All-State Football Teams

It’s that time again. This is the 15th season I have published All-State football teams for all classes except 6-Man, where their Coaches do the honors and they certainly know more than I do concerning that part of the game.

Those who have seen my All-State teams in the past know there are nearly always more than eleven selections on the 11-Man teams and in excess of eight in the 8-Man classes.

I never leave a player off my All-State teams just because it exceeds the 11-Man or 8-Man limit. I totally understand why others have those limits. You cannot put 15 players on the field to play 11-Man football but this is not an actual game, it’s a mythical, post-season honor.

I do have a limit of fifteen on my 11-Man squads and up to fourteen on 8-Man teams because there are so many 8-Man schools.

Is fourteen players on an 8-Man All-State football team considered a “watered-down” version with too many selections?

Not in my mind when you consider in Class D1 there were 59 teams competing with obviously 8 players in each starting lineup on either side of the ball. 8 times 59 is 472 starting positions on offense and the same on defense.

Even if I place 14 players on, say my Class D-1 All-State Offensive team, that is still only 2.96% of ALL the starters in D1 that make the Team. I’d say that's a very exclusive group.

Do I request submissions from coaches around the state? Yes. One reason is to make sure a player has been nominated for All-State. If in fact, a coach only nominates a player for Honorable Mention and not All-State, there is a reason for that decision. A head coach is with his players nearly every day during the season. I am not. You never, ever go over a coach’s decision and place a young man on All-State when he wasn’t nominated for that honor.

I am also hard-headed about placing an athlete below Class A on Super-State. The huge question that always comes up in my mind is this.

Could that lower class player handle the week-to-week-rigors of an upper echelon Class A team with a bunch of playoff bound teams on their schedule?

And now, with all of that out of the way, I am proud to present my 2025 Bobby Mills 1000 Yard Guy All-State Football Teams.
