The 2024 Florida High School Football Season is upon us and we are going to predict the order of finish for every district in the Sunshine State. No we are not just predicting the district champion, we are predicting the finish of every team in the district. To note only district champions are guaranteed a playoff berth, so teams that finish second or even third could be in consideration for playoff berths.
Looking at historical trends over the last few years including talent, strength of schedule, coaching, and potential program rebuilds are factors in considering where we predict teams to finish at.
