High School Football America 100
There’s A New No. 1 In The HSFA 100
Defending national champ St. John Bosco (California) jumps to No. 1 in the latest High School Football Football America 100, powered by NFL Play Football, after an impressive nationally-televised win over four-time reigning Florida state champ St. Thomas Aquinas.
Defending national champ St. John Bosco (California) jumps to No. 1 in the latest High School Football America 100, powered by NFL Play Football, after an impressive nationally-televised win over four-time reigning Florida state champ St. Thomas Aquinas. The win improves the Braves’ win streak against out-of-state opponents to 16 straight victories since 2017.
Preseason No. 1 Mater Dei (California) drops to No. 2 in the latest rankings created with our proprietary algorithm.
“I know fans will be questioning why Bosco moves to No. 1 this week,” said HSFA co-founder Jeff Fisher. “But, like I’ve been saying for the last decade, the algorithm is designed to analyze on-field results…we do a preseason ranking for the fans. The STA win gives the Braves a razor-thin lead over their arch-rivals. The great thing is that the Mater Dei/Bosco argument will be determined on the field when these two titans meet on October 13.”
The loss drops St. Thomas Aquinas from No. 6 to No. 7 this week.
Nevada’s Bishop Gorman continues to be a strong No. 3 after whipping former No. 74 Long Beach Poly (California) 60-15 in the Nike Football Classic. This week, the Gaels will be tested by No. 9 Miami Central in Las Vegas.
IMG Academy (Florida) is up a notch to No. 4 this week after edging former No. 10 St. Joseph’s Prep (Pennsylvania). The Ascenders, who now own wins over two reigning state champs — Lipscomb Academy (Tennessee) and St. Joe’s — travel to Alabama this week to play four-time reigning 7A champ Thompson, ranked No. 16 in the latest national rankings.
St. Joe’s falls from No. 10 to No. 11 this week.
Buford (Georgia) drops a spot to No. 5 after a hard-fought 10-7 win over No. 118 Mallard Creek (North Carolina).
There’s a lot of movement throughout the Top 100 after 57 of the 136 games played this past weekend featured head-to-head matchups inside the HSFA 100.
The biggest mover this week is Florida’s Armwood. The Hawks move from No. 311 to No. 70 after upsetting No. 40 Venice (Florida).
In all, there are 14 new faces in the Top 100:
No. 13 Armwood (Florida)
No. 144 Western (Davie, Florida)
No. 160 McKinney (Texas)
No. 170 St. Augustine (Florida)
