MaxPreps Top 25 Regional Football Computer Rankings: Midwest Region

Another team takes its turn at the No. 1 spot in the MaxPreps Midwest Region Football Computer Rankings as Carmel (Ind.) moves past Webb City (Mo.) this week.

Carmel's 17-10 win over Warren Central (Indianapolis) was enough to put the Greyhounds into the top spot. In the past two weeks, Carmel has defeated the No. 4 and No. 5 teams in the Midwest rankings.

St. Xavier (Cincinnati) moved into the top 10 after defeating La Salle (Cincinnati) last week. The Bombers have another big game this week against No. 4 Warren Central.

Marion Local (Maria Stein, Ohio) was the highest-debuting team this week, coming in at No. 15 after a win over small school power Coldwater.
