Making its debut this season, the USA Today Network’s Ohio High School Football Super 25 poll includes voters from across the state. The Ohio Super 25 will rank what we believe to be the 25 best teams in the state, regardless of division.
The inaugural poll is released today as our voters select a preseason poll for the Ohio Super 25 ahead of the start of the Ohio High School Athletic Association regular season later this week.
The Ohio Super 25 football poll is conducted weekly during the regular season by a panel of sportswriters and sports editors from across the state. Each voter submits a top 25, with first place worth 25 points, second place 24, and so on down to one point for 25th place.
Here’s a look at our rankings before Week 1.
