OSAAtoday presents its 2026 statewide pre-season 6A and 5A football coaches polls. Thanks to all the coaches who took the time and had the expertise to contribute their opinions to this endeavor.

Look for the 6A and 5A football polls every Tuesday during the fall season.

The 4A and 3A pre-season polls will be released tomorrow. The 2A, 1A-8 player and 1A-6 player pre-season polls will follow on Wednesday.

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.
