Varsity 4 News4JAX Super 10 rankings
Rank, (previous), school, record last year, classification
1. (2) Raines (8-0, Class 3A)
Last week: beat Yulee, 58-6. This week: at Atlantic Coast (4-5), Thursday, 6:30 p.m.
Why they’re here: The Vikings have absolutely destroyed every team this season. Yes, the schedule has been well documented to be woefully light, but Raines has seldom even been challenged. The Vikings led a 7-1 Yulee 49-0 at halftime last week.
2. (1) St. Augustine (9-0, Class 4A)
Last week: beat Ridgeview, 68-6. This week: vs. (4) Mandarin (8-1), Thursday.
Why they’re here: The Yellow Jackets can wrap up their second unbeaten regular season in the past three years with a win this week, but the Mustangs will be a tough one. I slid St. Augustine down due to Raines’ dominance. The Yellow Jackets have played the area’s most challenging schedule, with wins over Bolles, Nease and Columbia.
3. (3) Bolles (8-1, Class 2A)
Last week: beat Wolfson, 56-6. This week: at (8) Columbia (8-1), 7:30 p.m.
Why they’re here: The Bulldogs are a good pick to reach the Class 2A state title game. They’ve got a nice test in Lake City this week.
4. (4) Mandarin (8-1, Class 6A)
Last week: beat (5) Oakleaf, 31-14. This week: at (1) St. Augustine (9-0), Thursday.
Why they’re here: The Mustangs used a rock solid defense to smother Oakleaf and wrap up a district title. Can they keep St. Augustine from a perfect regular season this week?
5. (6) Nease (7-2, Class 6A)
Last week: beat Tocoi Creek, 36-0. This week: vs. Beachside (6-2), Thursday.
Why they’re here: The Panthers are positioned well for the playoffs. They can wrap up an eight-win regular season this week. Their defense has been unbelievable this year.
6. (7) Bradford (8-1, Class 2A)
Last week: beat Santa Fe, 21-7. This week: Off, regular season complete.
Why they’re here: The Tornadoes wrapped up a district title last week and now get a couple weeks of rest before the state playoffs begin. They’re in a good position to earn a No. 1 seed in Region 2-2A.
7. (8) Columbia (8-1, Class 4A)
Last week: beat Clay, 21-0. This week: vs. (3) Bolles (8-1), 7:30 p.m.
Why they’re here: The Tigers are back in action in what should be a tune-up game before the regular season finale against Bolles.
8. (5) Oakleaf (7-2, Class 6A)
Last week: lost to (4) Mandarin, 31-14. This week: at Tocoi Creek (4-5).
Why they’re here: The Knights have laid an egg in big games against Bolles (32-point loss) and Mandarin (two pick-sixes, three turnovers). How do they clean that up for the playoffs?
9. (9) Ponte Vedra (7-2, Class 5A)
Last week: beat IMG Academy White, 46-7. This week: at Creekside (4-5).
Why they’re here: The Sharks are in the lead for the District 3-5A title and can wrap up an eight-win regular season this week.
10. (10) White (7-2, Class 4A)
Last week: beat Riverside, 64-45. This week: at Baldwin (7-2), Thursday, 6:30 p.m.
Why they’re here: The Commanders can’t seem to slow teams down but they’re very good at putting up big offensive numbers week after week. Excellent test in the finale before the playoffs.

Bishop Kenny (7-2, Class 3A); Fleming Island (5-3, Class 6A); Fletcher (6-3, Class 6A); Middleburg (7-2, Class 5A).
