We have completed the regular season in Iowa high school football for eight-player, as the playoffs now begin this coming week.

The top teams in the classification all flexed their muscle last Friday, scoring blowout victories up and down the rankings.

Bishop Garrigan completed a wire-to-wire run as the No. 1 team and will host throughout as they look for a third consecutive trip to the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls and the state semifinals.

As a way to separate 11-player from eight-player, here are the High School on SI Iowa High School Football Week 9 Eight-Player Top 8:
