GAINESVILLE, Fla. — After seven weeks of football, the FHSAA has once again updated the playoff point averages for all teams in all classifications.
There are big changes across the board this week as some teams have entered the projected playoff picture while others have fallen out. In Classes 5A-8A, district record was taken into consideration except on certain exceptions which are noted. Remember district champions are guaranteed a No. 1 through No. 4 seed based upon their point average.
For Class 7A, you will find a breakdown of point averages for each team in every district and a projected seeding for each region (including tiebreakers) based upon the guidelines as published by the FHSAA.
NOTE: This only includes games through Monday, October 9.
