As the 2025 high school football season approaches in Nashville, the excitement is palpable. Here are some of the key stories and matchups that are setting the stage for what promises to be an electrifying year.

### Tough Schedules Ahead

The Nashville area is known for its competitive football scene, and this year is no exception. Christ Presbyterian Academy (CPA) tops the list of the hardest schedules, but they're not alone. East Nashville, despite moving down from Class 3A to 2A, is facing one of the toughest 2A schedules in the state. They kick off their season against Class 6A Collierville, followed by games against Hillsboro and Beech, both in higher classes[1].

Montgomery Bell Academy (MBA) is also gearing up for a challenging season under new coach Chris Chauvin. After back-to-back down years, MBA is looking to turn things around with a tough slate that includes games against Pearl-Cohn, Christian Brothers, and Ensworth[1].

### Star Players and Recruiting News

One of the brightest stars in Nashville high school football is Jared Curtis, the quarterback from Nashville Christian. Curtis, a 5-star prospect and the No. 4 quarterback on High School Football America’s Top QB list for the Class of 2026, has committed to the University of Georgia. Last season, he led Nashville Christian to the Tennessee Division II-A state championship, throwing for 2,830 yards with 40 touchdowns and just three interceptions. He also added 637 yards rushing with 18 scores, earning him Tennessee’s Gatorade State Player of the Year and the Mr. Football Award in his classification[3].

### Season Outlook

The 2025 season is filled with anticipation, especially with new coaching eras and talented players. East Nashville, despite their move to a lower class, is expected to be a force to be reckoned with. Their season finale against East Robertson could decide the region title[1].

MBA's new coach, Chris Chauvin, brings fresh energy to the team, and their schedule is packed with tough opponents. Games against Baylor, CPA, and Father Ryan will be crucial in determining their season's success[1].

### Fan Engagement

Fans are eagerly awaiting the start of the season, and there are several ways to stay updated. The "High School Football News for Nashville" podcast provides comprehensive coverage of local games, top players, and stories from the Nashville high school football scene[4].

With tough schedules, talented players, and new coaching eras, the 2025 high school football season in Nashville is shaping up to be one for the books. Whether you're a die-hard fan or just catching the excitement, this season promises to deliver thrilling matchups and outstanding performances.
