My apologies for getting this article out a few hours later than usual. The first three weeks of the season, I use some metrics from last season’s teams until enough data has built up to properly judge this year’s version of each respective school’s team. Starting this week, that switches and there’s a lot of work that goes into that switch. That being said, next week may come out on Tuesday as well, but then it will be back to the regular Monday publishing.
Welcome back everyone for the beginning of the 2025 high school football season. I’m excited to get back on the sidelines to cover some games in the coming weeks.
During the season, I do not make any picks or predictions publicly in case I end up getting sent to cover that game on short notice. That being said, the following series of articles are my preseason predictions to win all 28 regions, and my picks for state champions in each of the seven divisions in OHSAA 11-man football this season. There will be seven articles—one for every OHSAA division.
The following are the first five of the ten best high school football games played by schools within the Heart of Ohio Sports coverage area. The top five will be released in an article two days from today, Friday. These will be a weekly article that come out on Mondays, but we've released it early for week one in excitement of the start of the season. If you’d like us to cover your region, please contact us at heartofohiosports.com. Recruiting rankings are from 247sports.com.
Below are the first five of the top ten high school football games between OHSAA opponents for week one of the 2024 season. We will post the remaining five two days from now (Thursday, one week from the season's start).
