Super 10
Rank (Previous) School, Record, Classification
1. (1) Trinity Christian (1-0), Class 2A
Last week: d. Raines, 24-18.
This week: vs. Ribault (0-1), 7:30 p.m.
Why they’re here: The Conquerors got a big test in Week 1 before pulling away. Should be a physical game against the Trojans, but the real slate begins Sept. 24 at Columbia.
2. (2) Bolles (1-0), Class 4A
Last week: d. West Nassau, 42-0 in WW Gay Bold City Showcase.
This week: at (5) Columbia (1-0), 7:30 p.m.
Notable: The Bulldogs eviscerated the Warriors in the Showcase on WJXT last Friday night. The competition increases significantly this week with a trip out to Lake City.
3. (3) Riverside (1-0), Class 6A
Last week: d. Parker, 28-3.
This week: at Atlantic Coast (1-0), 6:30 p.m.
Why they’re here: The defense looks as advertised, maybe better, in a lockdown effort of the Braves in Week 1. A game against the much-improved Stingrays is up next for OJ Small’s crew.
4. (4) Bartram Trail (1-0), Class 8A
Last week: d. Tallahassee Rickards, 24-7.
This week: vs. Miami Columbus (1-0).
Why they’re here: The Bears haven’t taken the easy route to start the season. After scrambling to get Rickards on the schedule last week, Bartram gets Columbus, the 2019 state champion and winners of 17 straight games, to come to town for a visit.
5. (5) Columbia, Class 6A
Last week: d. Delray Beach American Heritage, 46-23.
This week: vs. (2) Bolles (1-0), 7:30 p.m.
Notable: The Tigers were absolutely dominant in their opener, jumping in front 27-0 and coasting. Game of the week contender ahead against No. 2 Bolles on Friday night.
6. (7) Baker County (1-0), Class 5A
Last week: d. Bradford, 28-18.
This week: vs. Viera (1-0).
Notable: Wildcats got things rolling with a rivalry win on the road at Bradford. Baker County head coach Kevin Mays faces a Viera program he knows well this week. He took Viera to the 2015 Class 7A state championship game.
7. (9) Oakleaf (1-0), Class 8A
Last week: d. Orange Park, 42-21 in WW Gay Bold City Showcase.
This week: vs. Miami Carol City (1-0).
Notable: The Knights rushed for 495 yards and a staggering 11 yards per carry in a rivalry rout of the Raiders in a soggy Showcase on Saturday. The competition increases in a hurry this week.
8. (10) Sandalwood (1-0), Class 8A
Last week: d. Fletcher, 19-15.
This week: vs. Gainesville Buchholz (1-0), 6:30 p.m.
Notable: Chris Calhoun’s legs delivered the Saints a comeback win over rival Fletcher last week. Big test against the visiting Bobcats on tap next.
9. (NR) Clay (1-0), Class 5A
Last week: d. Fleming Island, 21-14.
This week: Off.
Notable: Huge win over Clay County rival and previous No. 7 Fleming builds off of a strong 2020 season. Blue Devils are off this week before a visit to Bradford on Sept. 10.
10. (5) Raines (0-1), Class 5A
Last week: lost to (1) Trinity Christian, 24-18.
This week: at First Coast (0-1), 6:30 p.m.
Notable: The Vikings gave No. 1 Trinity a battle last week before coming up short. They stay in over University Christian, which has looked very good this season against larger programs.
