MaxPreps Regional Computer Football Rankings

All five No. 1 teams stayed the same, but there was one notable omission from this week's MaxPreps Regional Football Rankings — no De La Salle.

Regularly ranked among the top teams in the country, De La Salle (Concord, Calif.) is no longer rated in the computerized regional rankings for the Farwest region of the country.

The top three teams in every region stayed the same this week except for the South and the Farwest. Bishop Gorman (Las Vegas) and Narbonne (Harbor City, Calif.) switched places at No. 2 and 3 in the Farwest while Ensworth (Nashville, Tenn.) jumped all the way from No. 7 to No. 3 in the South.

All ratings are based on the MaxPreps Freeman Computer Rankings.
