USA TODAY Sports Super 25 high school football rankings

St. John Bosco’s close win over top-ranked Mater Dei at the Rose Bowl last week gives a new look to the top of USA TODAY Sports Super 25 rankings. 

But that big-time California showdown wasn’t the only outcome that created a shift in the hierarchy, as Edgewater’s (Fla.) lopsided defeat opened the door for two new teams to land in the bottom half of the rankings —including an undefeated Georgia power that now must square off against the No. 21 team.

As the high school football season enters December, here’s the latest top 25.
