Ohio High School Football Rankings

Next Week's Big Game

The big showdown in the power rankings this week is between St. Edward (3rd in the state) and Naperville Central (5th). Both teams are coming in hot off of wins in their previous games. Of course, St. Edward and Naperville Central can't both win again this week, so we'll learn on Saturday which team falters and which extends its success.

This Week's Top Game

One of the hottest tickets last week involved the clash between Archbishop Moeller (ranked 16th in OH) and St. Xavier (ranked 16th in OH). Archbishop Moeller was crushed by St. Xavier 30 - 7. Archbishop Moeller lost a lot of ground in this match: the team forfeited four spots in the power rankings.

Points Galore

There were a lot of high-scoring contests in the power rankings last week, but the 76-point effort in this one put it right at the top of the list. McKinley claimed a 42 - 34 victory over Hoover. Despite McKinley's win, the team was passed up by other teams in the power rankings and gave up two spots in the rankings.
