(Boone, IA) — The first edition of the IHSAA’s 2025 football rankings for Class 2A, Class 1A, Class A, and Eight-Player, determined by the IHSAA Football Rankings Committees, were released on Monday. Rankings for Class 2A, Class 1A, Class A, and Eight-Player will be determined throughout the 2025 regular season by official rankings committees. The committee rankings for 2A, 1A, A, and 8P will feature a top 10 consensus-built list as compiled by a six-person committee: Two former head coaches and one media member – each representing different state regions – and three IHSAA staff members. The IHSAA will use the rankings as a primary tool for postseason assignments, while maintaining school and geographic considerations. Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) will be published starting Oct. 6 following Week 6 for Class 5A, Class 4A, and Class 3A.
