As expected, there was some major shake-up with the UHSAA RPI football rankings after Friday’s Week 6 games across the state. In fact, of the seven No. 1-ranked teams from the debut rankings last week, only Lehi in 6A is still ranked first after Week 6.

The other six classifications all have a new No. 1 team — Roy (5A), Spanish Fork (4A), Morgan (3A), San Juan (2A), Beaver (1A) and Rich (1A eight-player).

The UHSAA uses the RPI rankings to seed the state tournament after the regular season concludes in Week 10. Historically, there’s usually a lot of head scratching when the rankings are first released midway through the season as the sample size is so small. Week by week the rankings usually get more realistic, but there are always outliers.

In 6A, Herriman made the biggest jump after Week 6 as it vaulted from No. 17 to No. 11. Bountiful made the biggest jump in 5A, as it climbed from No. 8 to No. 3 after rolling past previous No. 1 Northridge.

Pine View jumped four places in 4A to No. 14 with its overtime win over Dixie. In 3A, 2A and 1A, with must smaller classifications the movement from week to week is much smaller, with teams usually only moving one or two places.
