This is the second week of the USA Today Network’s Ohio High School Football Super 25 poll, which is polled by voters from across the state. The Ohio Super 25 ranks what we believe to be the 25 best teams in the state, regardless of division.
The inaugural poll released last week was our Ohio Super 25 preseason poll prior to the start of the Ohio High School Athletic Association regular season.
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 ahead of Week 2, which features a new No. 1.
