2017: High School Football Playoff tracker

We have reached the final two weeks of the regular season and while a few teams have clinched playoff bids, the majority of teams are still fighting for their lives.

Under the new playoff system, only the 16 district champions in Classes 5A-8A are guaranteed automatic playoff bids. The remaining 16 playoff bids in each classification are rewarded to the four best averages in each region.

In Class 1A-4A, the top four averages in each region make the playoffs for a total of 16 teams in each class.
