The final regular season CSM Power Rankings of the football season are here, with things a bit more shaken up after an intriguing Week 8 of action.
13 area teams have officially clinched their playoff bids with six or more wins: Farmington, Normal Community, Peoria High, Princeville, Elmwood/Brimfield, Tri-Valley, Eureka, Washington, Metamora, Pekin, Normal West, Bloomington and Normal U-High.
