FLORIDA HS FOOTBALL RANKINGS: Florida Top 25, Classification, SSAC and Independent rankings – 2022 Week 8

We are back after not having rankings for the last two weeks due to Hurricane Ian with updated rankings reflecting the games that have been played in the previous two weeks with the over-week-long Week 6 and most teams playing scheduled games in Week 7.

As we will do each week during the regular season and postseason, we will update our rankings weekly with the Flordia Top 25 rankings, Top 10 rankings for all nine classifications, plus Top 10 rankings for SSAC 11-Man and SSAC 8-Man football while providing a Top 5 ranking for independents. We will release updated rankings weekly on Wednesdays or Thursdays during the season.

If you have any questions, comments, or thoughts, please email Joshua Wilson at joshua.wilson@floridahsfootball.com or send us a message on Twitter at @FlaHSFootball. Responses to your emails or messages on Twitter are not guaranteed, but they will be looked at with thoughtfulness and consideration.
