The Standings

Rankings

Two different things live on this page. Our own weekly poll, which is us arguing about it and then voting, and the official SCHSL RPI, which is math and does not care what any of us think.

The official SCHSL RPI

RPI is the number that actually decides who hosts and who travels come playoff time. It weighs your winning percentage, your opponents' winning percentage, and your opponents' opponents' winning percentage, so a good record against nobody does not move it much.

Two steps: choose Football, then your classification. This is the SCHSL's own RPI tool, so it covers every sport they sanction, which is why basketball and baseball are in that first dropdown too. Football is the top option under Fall Sports.

Preseason heads up: RPI is calculated from games played, so until Week 1 kicks off every team shows 0-0 with an RPI of 0.00000. The order you see before the season means nothing. It starts moving the first Friday night.
