South Group 1

31 public schools. The top 16 eligible teams make the playoffs, seeded into two sections of eight. Cutoff Oct 24.

Through Week 3Week 3

Schalick leads South Group 1, with Paulsboro and Woodstown right behind. Only 15 of the 31 teams are eligible so far, so if the season ended today the field would have 15 teams and the top seed would get a first-round bye, and Keansburg, No. 27 in the power rank, would be in because 12 teams ranked above it still need a second win over an NJSIAA school.

The standings

Ranked by power rank (UPR): lower is better

NJSIAA head-to-head rule. After the power rank, a team that beat the team directly above it moves ahead of it. The line under the team names the game.

Today vs. Friday. “If it ended today” counts the games played so far. Every game counts in a team’s average, so even a win over a weak team can lower it. The odds play out every game left.
