The chase for state championships begins.
Central Texas high school football teams start the UIL playoffs with bi-district round games Thursday and Friday.
East View and Georgetown secured spots in the postseason with wins in Week 11 to join numerous Austin-area programs that hope to extend their season. For some, it’s a desire to give their seniors as many games as possible, and for others, it’s a goal to still be playing in December.
