When people talk about their teams and the teams they play on their schedule, they usually will find a way to incorporate how their strength of schedule is better compared to another team’s strength of schedule. However, is that always the case?
FloridaHSFootball.com has developed a strength of schedule formula that factors in from a select number of years along with recent success, including playoff success or going further by winning a state championship. These factors are valued into a weighted formula that then gives us a look at the team’s strength of schedule.
Listed are the rankings for Class 2M for the entire classification and then broken down by district.
