Last week: Beat Venice, 20-17<\/a>. This week: at Bishop Kenny (2-3). Coaches poll ranking: 1.<\/p>\n

Why they\u2019re here: Vikings have long since passed the test as area\u2019s best team. They\u2019ve won 20 consecutive games and 31 straight overall in the regular season. They\u2019re sights are set on state prowess now, especially after serving notice with a win over Venice. <\/p>\n

2. (2) Columbia (7-0, Class 4A)<\/p>\n

Last week: Beat Manatee, 51-28<\/a>. This week: Off. Coaches poll ranking: 2.<\/p>\n

3. (3) St. Augustine (6-0, Class 4A)<\/p>\n

Last week: Off. This week: at Ridgeview (1-5). Coaches poll ranking: 3. <\/p>\n

Last week: Off. This week: vs. KIPP Bold City (0-6). Coaches poll ranking: 5.<\/p>\n

Last week: Beat Florida State High, 24-7. This week: at Williston (2-4). Coaches poll ranking: 8.<\/p>\n

Why they\u2019re here: Christians with their biggest regular season win against the previously unbeaten Seminoles. Yes, they do have a loss to Trinity (14-8), but the win over Florida High (coupled with Trinity\u2019s running clock loss to Carrollwood) is the separator this week.<\/p>\n

9. (8) Trinity Christian (3-4, Class 1A)<\/p>\n

Last week: Lost to Carrollwood Day, 63-21. This week: Off. Coaches poll ranking: 8.<\/p>\n

Why they\u2019re here: Conquerors ran into a hard reality check last week against a team that will likely be in their playoff path should they make the state semis or final. <\/p>\n

10. (10) Fletcher (4-2, Class 5A)<\/p>\n

Last week: Off. This week: vs. Nease (3-3), 6:30 p.m. Coaches poll ranking: Not ranked.<\/p>\n
