The TACA All-State Team is an award presented to (usually) four players by the Tennessee Academic Coaches Association. The four players are selected through coach voting, and are supposed to be the best four Quiz Bowl players in the state of Tennessee. This has been cast into doubt, however, due to the massive underrepresentation of West and East Tennessee teams (such as White Station and Farragut.) The award is presented at the annual Tennessee Academic Coaches Association State Championship.

Records before 2019 are incomplete. Notable likely winners include Jack Lewis and Noah Butler. Notable snubs include Stanley Zhao and Chris Wright. No All-State team was named in 2021, due to TACA's decision not to host an online event.
