State Football Teams of the Year
It’s a little different this year since previously we just coronated the CIF Open Division state champion. We still have that for St. John Bosco, which is State Team of the Year for the third time, but we also are adding three more that are not simple coronations but in which two of the three […]

Saturday CIF State Finals
St. John Bosco of Bellflower makes it 3-for-3 in CIF Open Division state title game triumphs over De La Salle of Concord, but the Spartans hung around until a back-breaking 96-yard fumble return touchdown late in the fourth quarter of 49-28 contest. The CIF Southern Section also made it 3-for-3 on the day at Cerritos […]
Friday CIF State Finals
Central of Fresno & Clayton Valley of Concord capture CIF state football titles on Friday night at Cerritos College. It’s the first title for both and the first one for a Fresno school in Division 1 or higher after the Grizzlies bounced Sierra Canyon of Chatsworth in the D1-AA final.

NEW State Top 50 FB Ranks (26-50)
We tried to get all of this weekend CIF D2-AA and D2-A state finalists into these rankings, but couldn’t quite make it thanks to Oxnard (now No. 50) having a head-to-head win over Pacifica of Oxnard (which would be No. 51 if we counted it that far). In addition to Oxnard, two other newcomers this...
Saturday NorCal/SoCal Region Finals
Corona del Mar and San Mateo Serra both win in D1-A, as expected, but it wasn’t easy for either one. McClymonds of Oakland also keeps alive its quest for a fourth straight state title while the other big news was the CIF North Coast Section ending 6-0 on the weekend. All seven NCS champions will […]
Friday NorCal/SoCal Regional Finals
Sierra Canyon impresses in SoCal D1-AA contest against Helix in matchup of top 10 state teams. The NorCal D1-AA matchup was much closer as state top 10 Central of Fresno needed a clutch fourth-down stop to hang on. We also had a battle of No. 1 and No. 2 in state small schools in which […]
