There's not much breathing room this week among the top teams in the state rankings, and there could be a major changeup in the week ahead.

Concord remains at No. 1 in the rankings once again, but Windham (No. 2) and Spaulding (No. 3) are getting closer, and the Red Raiders - who take on the Crimson Tide on Wednesday - could really shape things up. Dover moves back into the top five while Bishop Guertin dropped a spot after its loss to Spaulding.

Here are the full state-wide rankings and the rankings for each division.

### 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 and eight for a win over D3\. 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.
