With another week completed in the Florida high school football season, it is time to check out the latest top 25 state rankings.

With their season completed, IMG finishes the season as the top ranked team in Florida which is highlighted by wins over Hoover (AL), Mandarin, Central-Phenix City (AL) and Venice.

The top 20 also held to chalk as each team won their playoff matchup. With that being said, there will be movement over the course of the coming weeks as the playoffs progress.

The only team that fell out of the top 25 rankings was Evans after they suffered a 20-6 defeat to Pace. Each subsequent team that was ranked beneath moved up, and Nease checks in at 25 after their 45-7 win over Oakleaf.
