Where do Nebraska's Top 10 football teams rank nationally?

But what about the national rankings? Oh what a coupe that would be to find your alma mater alongside traditional powers Mater Dei, St. Frances Academy or St. John Bosco. Heck, landing a Top 100 ranking would be pretty cool, too.

Well, this week we did the work for you. Scouring through the MaxPreps National Rankings, we unearthed the current MaxPreps ranking for each member of Nebraska's Top 10 11-Man and 8-Man/6-Man football teams.

Humphrey St. Francis and Howells-Dodge, the top two 8-Man programs in Nebraska, represent the Cornhusker State in our Top 25 nationally. Third-ranked Cambridge comes in at No. 39 out of the 1,776 football programs included in our 9-Man/8-Man/6-Man database. Top-ranked and Class B power Scottsbluff dropped 16 spots to 421st nationally following a 51-10 win over Alliance last weekend to lead the way for the big schools.

Second to the Bearcats is Class C1 power Wahoo, who is representing well after knocking off Columbus Scotus 69-14 to claim the 470th spot out of the 14,243 schools listed in our 11-Man rankings database. Hastings Adams Central, Nebraska's second-ranked Class C1 squad, rounds out the Cornhusker State Top 3 at No. 479 nationally following a 37-14 win over Kearney Catholic last weekend.

Millard West took advantage of its 43-14 defeat of Lincoln East to leap 36 spots to 486th, while Class C1's Pierce moved up 60 spots to 489th following its 60-6 win over West Point-Beemer.

Humphrey St. Francis, Nebraska's top dog in the 8-Man/6-Man ranks, climbed 12 spots to 19th this week following a 50-0 win over Riverside. Howells-Dodge edged Laurel-Concord-Coleridge 28-20 to climb one spot to 23rd while Cambridge rose 34 places to 39th nationally after edging Dundy County-Stratton 40-22 last weekend.

Fourth-ranked Arcadia/Loup City moved up 2 spots to 41st after blasting Amherst 42-6 while Elm Creek dropped seven spots to 53rd nationally after dealing Ansley-Litchfield a 42-16 loss. Top-ranked 6-Man club Cody-Kilgore, ranked 15th in Nebraska's Class 8-Man/6-Man poll, rose 36 spots to 80th nationally after knocking off Sioux County 40-6.
