This week's high school football schedule in Florida is headlined by a pair of matchups between two of the top 25 teams in the state according to the
MaxPreps computer rankings.
Following a run to the 4M state championship game last season, Mandarin has outscored its first three opponents 145-13. The Mustang offense features a balanced attack as three quarterbacks have combined to pass for 650 yards and eight touchdowns while seven players have accounted for 691 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns on the ground.
Bradford made a run to the 2S state title game last year and has used a stingy defense to win its first three games of the season, allowing less than 10 points per outing.
In the other headlining matchup of the weekend, head coach Teddy Bridgewater takes Northwestern's high-powered offense on the road to battle a talented Norland group.
After advancing to the 2M state title game last year, Norland appears to be a force again after outscoring its first two opponents 63-10.
Northwestern comes into the showdown averaging 43 points per game behind junior quarterback
Leon Strawder, who has thrown for 769 yards and 14 touchdowns while rushing for 88 yards and an additional touchdown.
Read on for a complete look at this week's top 25 scoreboard.
