GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Ten weeks of football is in the books and the FHSAA has updated the playoff point averages for all teams in all classifications for the final time this season leading to Sunday’s bracket reveal.
As such with this latest update, the playoff picture is starting to become much clearer, but there are still areas where things can drastically change based upon this week’s final regular season games.
In Classes 5A-8A, district record was taken into consideration except on certain exceptions which are noted.
For Class 5A, you will find a breakdown of point averages for each team in every region and a projected seeding (including tiebreakers) based upon the guidelines as published by the FHSAA (click here to view), as well as quick thoughts about each region.
NOTE: Teams in RED have clinched their district championship

QUICK THOUGHTS: No major changes here with the region as three of the four districts have declared champions. It is very possible the district champion for District 5A-1 will be determined through the points. With Ponte Vedra’s big win over Bolles last week they are back into the top eight of the region. Suwannee is knocking at the door for a possible No. 8 seed, with this week’s games yet to be factored in.

No. 1 Zephyrhills (5A-8)
No. 2 Nature Coast (5A-7)*
No. 3 North Marion (5A-6)*
No. 4 Baker County (5A-5)
Wildcards

No. 8 Eastside at No. 1 Zephyrhills
No. 5 Hernando at No. 4 Baker County
No. 6 Menendez at No. 3 North Marion
No. 7 Crystal River at No. 2 Nature Coast
QUICK THOUGHTS: Not many changes in the region here with North Marion and Nature Coast changing seeding spots, while Hernando moves into the No. 5 seed with Menendez bouncing back, rising up from the No. 8 to the No. 6 seed. Although Eastside is the No. 8 seed, they might be safe with River Ridge over a point behind them.
