EDGYTIM.com publisher Tim OHalloran breaks down his 2025 Week 8 Class 5A Top 10 poll. I use IHSA Football guru’s Steve Soucie Preseason Classification guide to determine which teams are projected in which class for polling purposes. Actual IHSA Classifications are not determined until IHSA Playoff Pairings Night once the <a href="http://ihsa.org/">IHSA</a> regular season has been completed.
