 6man football states?
Does anyone know all of the states that play six man? I think it's TEXAS, New Mexico, Montana, Colorado, Nebraska, Florida, Louisiana, and Maryland. If there's is anymore I would really like to know.

 Re: 6man football states?
Another question, does anyone know what states have public 6 man and what states have private school 6 man. I know some states combine the 2. And also how many teams in each state.

 Re: 6man football states?
New Mexico has it.
Don't know for sure, but I would willing to bet that Nebraska does since that is where the game originated from.

 Re: 6man football states?
Yes those do. South Dakota stopped bout 30+ years ago and Louisiana stopped 3 years ago but gave me some team names in Arkansas that he thinks still have teams. Also called a school in Ohio waiting on word and looked and tried to find California but found nothing

 Re: 6man football states?
You can add to that Ohio, Alabama, North Carolina, Kansas, Wyoming, Missouri, Virginia, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Utah. They all played at one time, I haven't dug far enough to see if they still do, or the last time they did or at what level. Wyoming - Wyoming/Nebraska 6 Man shoot out 30 Jun 2012. http://trib.com/sports/high-school/football/prep-football-wyoming-coaching-staff-announced-for-six-man-all/article_2f0ef376-3e32-11e1-8e94-0019bb2963f4.htmlOhio - Windham High School and Greenville North Carolina - Cleveland High School in Shelby, North Carolina, "Bobby Bell, Kansas City Chiefs" Missouri - Union Star R2, 1960s Alabama (Lauderdale County) played a short run in the 40s due to WWII. Colorado - Idalia - references also made to Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, Utah. I haven’t found anything on Utah and Kansas yet other than their mention with Idalia Colorado. Virginia - For the Marines, in 1953 Hayden Fry (Odessa HS and then Baylor) coached a six man football team (does not make reference to HS or adults) at Quantico while on active duty. Later becoming friends with Al Davis (One time Raiders owner) who was a rival coach in those days. New Jersey and Pennsylvania - Great Eastern Football Association (Adult 6 man football League) which has teams from both states. Running total: Texas, New Mexico, Montana, Colorado, Nebraska, Florida, Louisiana, Maryland, South Dakota, Louisiana, Alabama, Arkansas, California, North Carolina, Kansas, Missouri, Ohio, Utah, Virginia, New Jersey and Wyoming.

 Re: 6man football states?
Florida actually went to 7 man in 2011 and may go to 8 man next year.

 Re: 6man football states?
Thats cool, actually I have only found 4 states conducting 6 Man at the moment, but Im still looking. Texas, New Mexico, Nebraska and Wyoming.
Also, It appears that the Greater Eastern Football Association in PA switched to 8 man in 2010. Thanks U-tube. haha
