USA TODAY High School Sports Super 25 football rankings as of Nov. 28, 2023

After one of the wildest weekends in high school football, five new teams appear in the latest Super 25 rankings. The upset-heavy outcomes from Georgia plus the Belleville (Mich.) shocker created the most significant shift, while Mater Dei (Santa Ana, Calif.) jumps closer to the top after handling St. John Bosco (Bellflower, Calif.) in the CIF-SS Div. 1 championship.

The methodology: the HSS staff creates the Super 25 rankings while considering various data points, including strength of schedule, prospects, the more traditional stats—did the team win or lose?—as well as overall point differentials.
