IHSAA Football: Rankings, Oct. 7th for 2A, 1A, A, and 8-Player
October 7th, 2024 by Asa Lucas
The second edition of the IHSAA’s 2024 football rankings are available below, with Ratings Percentage Index for Class 5A, Class 4A, and Class 3A now provided.
Current district standings are also available below for available classes.
Rankings for Class 2A, Class 1A, Class A, and Eight-Player will be determined throughout the 2024 regular season by official rankings committees, as debuted in 2023. The committee rankings for 2A, 1A, A, and 8P will feature a top 10 consensus-built list as compiled by a six-person group: Two former head coaches and one media member – each representing different state regions – and three IHSAA staff members. The IHSAA will use the rankings as a primary tool for postseason assignments, while maintaining school and geographic considerations.
Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) is a formula instituted in 2018 using records to determine a team’s relative strength in a single regular season.
Playoff qualifying information is available below. Final editions will be following the release of first round playoff matchups.
