Prediction: Edna Karr (La.) runs the table to an unbeaten season

The 2025 high school football season will be getting underway in less than six weeks, which means it’s officially preview season. Rivals is breaking down the nation’s top teams from coast-to-coast, and today we make our way to over to Louisiana where the top team in the state, Edna Karr, takes aim at winning another state title. The Cougars are loaded with talent across the board. With early tests on their schedule, can Edna Karr go unbeaten once again this fall?

Player Spotlight: S Aiden Hall

The LSU commitment helped lead a Cougars’ defensive unit that only yielded 13 points per game on their way to winning the LHSAA Division I Select state championship last fall. Aiden Hall, who is ranked the No. 6 prospect in Louisiana, leads a very talented Edna Karr defense that features multiple other Power Four level prospects. Whether its patrolling the secondary or coming up into the box and laying a hit, Hall is about as good as they come in the Big Easy.

Others to watch: DL Richard Anderson, CB Hayward Howard Jr., OL Leon Noil, CB Maurice Williams, OL Zyion Wesley

Season Prediction: 9-0

There’s little reason to think that Edna Karr won’t win another state championship this fall. The path to prosperity seems to be there for the Cougars, making it a ripe situation for a repeat this fall. Better question for this very team is can they come away undefeated, facing the likes of Florida’s American Heritage and a few state powerhouses. We believe that answer is yes when taking a look at what kind of talent Edna Karr has on the back end defensively and playing at home has its advantages in front of the home faithful. An unbeaten season for the Cougars looks more than possible.
