A few losses by the top teams in Division I, and some big wins for teams in the other divisions, created quite a few changes in this week's rankings.

Portsmouth High School remained at the top of the rankings for the fourth straight week and Lebanon, also from D2, jumped up to No. 2 following Saturday's win over Manchester West. Littleton, which is undefeated in Division IV, climbed up to No. 3, ahead of Pelham at No. 4\. Milford rounds out the top five.

Here are the complete state-wide rankings and the rankings for each division. Rankings will be updated each week during the regular season.

### How the rankings are done

We took the NHIAA’s football rating system, and gave it a little tweak. Instead of 10 points for a win, we weighted the wins by division, giving 12 for a win over a D1 team, 10 for a win over D2, eight for a win over D3, and six for a win over D4\. Plus, every team got two points for a win by a beaten opponent. The two point totals were added together and divided by the number of games played.
