OSAAtoday presents its 2024 statewide pre-season 2A, 1A-8 player and 1A-6 player football coaches polls. Thanks to all the coaches who took the time and had the expertise to contribute their opinions to this endeavor.

The pre-season 6A and 5A polls were released Monday and the 4A and 3A polls came out yesterday. They can be found on the OSAA Live app and, eventually, here: https://www.osaa.org/today.

Look for the 2A. 1A-8 and 1A-6 football polls every Thursday during the fall season.

Please note: these polls are for generating interest and discussion only and have no impact on the OSAA’s RPI and Colley ratings that form the basis of the OSAA’s rankings for playoff purposes.

If there are any varsity football head coaches who would like to vote in the coaches polls going forward but did not receive notice to vote in this one, please email johnt@osaa.org.
