After five weeks of massive changes in the High School Football America 100 powered by NFL Play Football, this week is a fairly calm one as far as changes are concerned.

The only Top 25 team to lose was two-time defending North Carolina Class 4A champ Chambers, which lost 16-10 to Hough in a battle of unbeatens in the Tar Heel State. Chambers drops from No. 12 to No. 51 in the latest national rankings created with our proprietary algorithm. Hough is the biggest climber in the Top 100, climbing 35 spots to No. 49 this week.

The other big mover this week is Cocoa from Florida. The Tigers overcame a 28-7 first quarter deficit to former No. 50 Treasure Coast (Florida) before winning 56-55 in double-overtime.

Cocoa won it by going for two on the final play of the second OT. The Tigers ascend 27 spots this week to No. 52.

We’ll take our first big step in the national championship chase this weekend when top-ranked Mater Dei (California) travels to St. John Bosco (California) to open Trinity League play. Bosco enters the game ranked No. 4 in the nation, up a spot last week after all five of their season-opening opponents picked-up wins over the weekend.

Through the first half of the season, the State of Texas leads the way with 18 Texas in the HSFA 100. Florida is right behind with 17 teams, followed by Georgia with 10, Ohio has seven and California has six.

In all, 24 states, plus Washington DC, have teams in the Top 100.
