Welcome to Week 1 of the prep football season in Wyoming. This is the first full slate of games in the 2026 season. Of course, every Class 4A team made its debut last week, along with several other teams in 3A, 2A, and 1A 6-man. Nearly every team that did not play last week will have a game this week. Action on the gridiron is spread from Thursday through Saturday.

WYOPREPS WEEK 1 HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL SCHEDULE 2026

Three games involve ranked teams facing each other. That includes an interclass battle between 2A top-rated Big Horn and 1A 9-man No. 1 Pine Bluffs. How will that work? It will be a 9-man game with Pine Bluffs on offense, punting, and PAT's. It's 11-man for kickoffs and kick returns, and Big Horn on offense, punting, and PAT's.

There's also a 2-4 matchup in 4A between Cheyenne East and Natrona County. Finally, a No. 1 versus No. 2 showdown will happen on Saturday in 6-man, as Burlington travels to Baggs to face Little Snake River. That's a rematch of the last four 1A 6-man title games.

Two Wyoming teams will be in the 19th Rocky Mountain Rumble in Pocatello, Idaho. Class 3A top-ranked Star Valley and No. 3 Riverton will play opponents from Alberta, Canada, at Idaho State's ICCU Dome.
