US high school and college football updates

Overview

In late October 2026, Utah high school football playoffs were scheduled to begin under a new format. For the 6A, 5A, and 4A classifications, the state tournament was set to commence on October 30 following a bye week. This season marked the first time since the 2019 implementation of RPI seeding that only the top 16 teams in these classifications would qualify for the tournament.

By early November 2026, new rankings were released for both collegiate and Texas high school football. In college football, Utah, Miami (FL), and Indiana led the Week 10 standings. In Texas high school football, Allen maintained the number one spot in the UIL Top 25 rankings heading into the final week of the regular season, while several other teams remained undefeated.
