There's a new top team in the nation if you consult the Composite Rankings.
Allen (Texas) leapfrogged Washington (Miami) for the top spot this week after the MaxPreps Computer Rankings bumped the Tornadoes down to 10th in the nation. Also, Brother Rice (Bloomfield Hills, Mich.) is back.
The rankings now include four total polls that we consider.
In order to be considered for these rankings, a team must be ranked in two national polls. If it does not land in all four, the team will be given a score of 40 to weigh into its average.
Be sure to check out the high school football playoff brackets for each state.
