High School Football Top 25 Composite Rankings

Video: MaxPreps Top 10 Plays of the Week
Check out the most incredible plays of last week's action.

Some teams began play this weekend, which led to a few changes in the composite rankings. Most notable was IMG Academy's loss to American Heritage, which dropped the Ascenders from No. 3 to No. 10.

As a result several teams moved around, including St. Thomas Aquinas which took over the No. 2 spot.

In order to be considered for these rankings, a team must be ranked in two national polls. If it does not land in all four, the team will be given a 40 to weigh into its average. We chose four national polls that have produced rankings for at least five years. The four polls include the MaxPreps Xcellent 25 writers' rankings, the MaxPreps Computer Rankings, USA Today Super 25 Expert Rankings and PrepNation's National Prep Poll.
