2023 Season High School Football: The Best Team from All 50 States, High School Sports is taking a look at some of the best teams to watch throughout the nation as the 2023 high school football season gets on. Several of these teams will likely be represented in the first Super 51.
I’ve given each state’s top team as much thought as possible, taking into account the QB position’s strength and outlooks from other areas of the HS coverage sphere, and have chosen a “best of the best” based on the year-over-year team, realizing that there is no way—analytical or opinion-based—to present an absolute, without a doubt, concrete ranking among the thousands of teams.
