USA TODAY Sports releases Week 13 high school football rankings across regions

USA TODAY Sports published its Week 13 high school football rankings for multiple regions, highlighting postseason activity and team standings. In the Southeast Region, St. Thomas Aquinas holds the top spot, followed by Buford (GA) and Columbus (FL), with several undefeated teams making strong championship cases.

In the West Region, Yahoo Sports noted that Arizona rivalry games influenced rankings, with Chandler and Liberty securing the top two positions. Liberty has a bye week as their starting quarterback recovers from injury. Mission Viejo (CA) and Skyridge (UT) entered the Super 15 rankings, replacing teams that lost recent games.

The Southwest Region rankings, also from Yahoo Sports, show postseason play underway as the regular seasons conclude in states like Texas and Oklahoma. Broken Arrow narrowly survived a tough challenge from Edmond North, while Texas teams such as Randle and South Oak Cliff secured double-digit wins despite some early game difficulties.

USA TODAY Sports also released the national Super 25 rankings, which remained unchanged this week.

These rankings provide a snapshot of high school football as teams enter critical playoff stages across the country, with top teams holding steady and some new entrants making an impact.
