Eight area teams sit in first-round bye positions entering Week 7

OHSAA computer ratings put 20 OhioVarsity-area teams inside the current playoff field with four regular-season games remaining

The OHSAA football computer ratings entering Week 7 have eight OhioVarsity-area teams positioned for first-round byes and 20 of the 27 highlighted programs currently inside their regional top 12.

The postseason picture is beginning to take shape.

And several area teams have put themselves in prime position.

The Ohio High School Athletic Association released its latest football computer ratings Tuesday, with eight area teams currently sitting among the top four in their respective regions and 20 area programs positioned inside the top-12 playoff field.

The final computer ratings will be released Oct. 25. The top 12 teams in each region qualify for the playoffs, while the top four seeds receive first-round byes.

With four weeks remaining in the regular season, every result — and every result by a defeated opponent — can reshape the standings.
