FLORIDA POWER RANKINGS INDEX: 2025 season Class 5A district projections with projected win-loss records

As the 2025 high school football season nears, the Florida Power Rankings Index (FPRI) provides a data-driven outlook on how teams are projected to perform across the state. Built exclusively on results from the 2024 season and the upcoming 2025 schedules, the FPRI uses a proprietary formula that factors in Opponent Strength Index (OSI), average margin of victory, and an overall performance rating to produce accurate, unbiased projections. While actual results may vary under the lights, these projections offer a clear snapshot of expectations heading into the fall. Below is a breakdown of projected records and projected order of finish for all 16 districts in Class 5A.

Note: Teams are listed in projected order based on Florida Power Rankings Index (FPRI) and do not represent an official seeding or ranking.
