High school football 2015 Top 25 Composite Rankings

Video: Who's No. 1? - Top 25 Rankings
See what went down last week and how it affected the Xcellent 25 National Football Rankings presented by the Army National Guard.

The season is under way for almost every football team across the county, and already fans are seeing some major upsets and teams on the rise.

Bishop Gorman (Las Vegas) and St. Thomas Aquinas (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) held strong at the top. The rest of the Top 25 saw a major shakeup.

In order to be considered for these rankings, a team must be ranked in two national polls. If it does not land in all four, the team will be given a 40 to weigh into its average. We chose four national polls that have produced rankings for at least five years. The four polls include the MaxPreps Xcellent 25 writers' rankings, the MaxPreps Computer Rankings, USA Today Super 25 Expert Rankings and PrepNation's National Prep Poll.
