The 2025 Florida high school football campaign has seen the conclusion of regular season outside of a handful of games as the Florida High School Athletic Association is set to announce on Thursday afternoon which teams have made the postseason.

The undefeated IMG Academy Ascenders played on the road once more in New Jersey, defeating Hun School, 31-13, to remain Florida’s No. 1 team.  St. Thomas Aquinas, Chaminade-Madonna Prep, Raines, Armwood and following at No. 2 through 5, respectively. Which other teams were able to crack the last set of Top 25 Florida high school football rankings before the FHSAA playoffs begin?

The Massey Ratings, officially used during the BCS era, is a model that ranks sports teams by analyzing game outcomes, strength of schedule, and margin of victory.

Here is the latest Florida high school football Top 25 rankings, according to Massey as of Nov. 2.

1. IMG Academy Ascenders

IMG Academy (9-0) took to the road again as the most well-traveled team in the Sunshine State, this time defeating Hun School, 31-13, on Saturday night.

The Ascenders have leaned on the play of Louisville commit Le’Khy Thompkins, who rushed for nearly 200 yards and scored two touchdowns in a win over East St. Louis (Ill.) recently. When it comes to playing bully ball up front, no other Florida high school program in the state knows how to do that any better than IMG Academy, under the guidance of former Ohio State offensive line coach Greg Studrawa.

Up next for IMG Academy, the Ascenders close out the regular season against rival and No. 3 nationally ranked St. Frances Academy (Md.).

2. St. Thomas Aquinas Raiders

St. Thomas Aquinas Raiders make the jump to the second spot after closing out the regular season with a 27-21 win over No. 2 Chaminade-Madonna Prep last week. The Raiders remain the favorite to win Florida’s Class 5A state championship this fall with one of the state’s most talented teams.

Three-star quarterback Mason Mallory, who transferred from West Boca Raton during the offseason, has displayed what he could do as the Raiders’ dual-threat behind center. Mallory has so far thrown for over 1,300 yards and 15 touchdowns this fall.

When it comes to dominance in the Sunshine State on the high school football level, head coach Roger Harriott has this group prepared to win a unprecedented seventh straight state title.

The Raiders like all teams will wait to see who they will be matched up with in the Class 5A postseason bracket.

3. Chaminade-Madonna Prep Lions

Chaminade-Madonna Prep (8-2) streak of winning eight straight games since losing the regular season opener to nationally ranked St. Frances Academy of Baltimore came to an end when they lost to No. 2 St. Thomas Aquinas, 27-21.

For the Lions, despite the loss, their eyes are set on winning another Class 1A state title come December at Pitbull Stadium.

Four-star Derrek Cooper (Texas commit) is as good as they come for running backs, with the senior rushing for over 800 yards and scoring 11 touchdowns. The offense is more than just Cooper alone, however. Also putting up some strong numbers right behind Cooper is junior tailback Arwin Jackson, who has rushed for more than 500 yards and five scores.

A bright spot is the youth movement at quarterback for the Lions as 14-year old Malik Leonard, who has thrown for over 1,800 yards and 20 touchdowns this fall.

The Lions await who they will face in the FHSAA’s Class 1A state playoffs.

4. Raines Vikings

Breaking back into the Top 5 of the Florida high school football weekly rankings is last year’s Class 3A state runnerups, the unbeaten Raines Vikings (9-0).

The Vikings have dominated the competition they have faced so far this season, with impressive wins coming against Lake Mary and Madison County, respectively. Raines’ latest dominant win was a 57-0 shellacking of Atlantic Coast last week as they completed a undefeated 2025 regular season.

Senior quarterback Timothy Cole is having himself another superb season behind center, throwing for 1,647 yards, 26 touchdowns and one interception. Cole has also added 346 yards rushing on the ground, establishing himself as one of Northeast Florida’s top dual-threat signal callers.

5. Armwood Hawks

The Hawks of Seffner completed the feat of going 10-0 in last week’s 49-7 win over Riverview. Armwood are serious contenders to upend West Boca Raton in Class 6A this fall with the way they’re playing heading into the Florida high school football playoffs.

There’s plenty of reasons to like this undefeated Armwood (10-0) team, including senior three-star quarterback Rhys Brush, who is committed to USF. The Hawks have only given up one touchdown in the last five games, which has included four shutout victories.

Looking deeper at this Armwood roster and head coach Evan Davis has a slew of Power Four recruits littered all over the defense, including in the secondary with cornerbacks Jaelen Waters (Miami commit), Larry Warren (UNLV commit) and safeties D’Montae Tims (Colorado commit), Kallen Martinez (UConn commit).

6. Northwestern (10-0)
7. Miami Central (7-1)
8. Edgewater (10-0)
9. Cardinal Mooney (9-1)
10. The Bolles School (9-1)

11. F. W. Buchholz (9-1)
12. American Heritage (5-5)
13. Venice (6-3)
14. Jesuit (9-1)
15. St. Augustine (9-1)

16. Deland (10-0)
17. Vero Beach (10-0)
18. Lakeland (8-2)
19. Jones (8-2)
20. Mandarin (9-1)

21. Gaither (9-1)
22. The First Academy (5-5)
23. Sarasota Booker (9-1)
24. West Boca Raton (8-2)
25. Atlantic (9-1)
